Few questions re: mod 10 Conqueror GFs

greyhawk

Hail,

I just wanted to pick the brain of my Conq brothers and sisters about how mod 10 is shaping up. I know it's only been out a week, so I know nothing is really definite yet. Here goes!

1. How is tanking current content (up to CN) looking for us? I've heard some say that FBI may be tankable by a Conq, but I'm not worried about that at the moment.

2. I've heard the Sellsword makes a good summoned, so I ranked one up to blue. So far I like her, but are there other companions that are rising to the top? I assume Fire and Air Archons will be recommended for at least active duty. CA pets are dead now, but any other good ones? I have a legendary Harper Bard, but I know he's a lot more rare on PC.

3. Are people using Negation to reach the DR cap, and putting those extra stats to great use? Like if my Negation is 20℅ DR when fully stacked, can I just push my in combat DR to 60℅, and then concentrate on raising my Power and Crit? I assume this will work, but just looking for confirmation.

4. What are you finding makes a good weapon enchant? I'm rocking a Perfect Plague Fire, since I've mostly been Tact. Should I switch to Vorpal? Or Dread? Another one that's flown under the radar?

5. What class features and OH bonus are people digging so far?

6. What encounters, dailies and at-wills are making the cut?

Again, I realize you all are still playing around to figure out what works best. I'm just curious about initial feelings.

Thanks a ton, for any feedback! Us console guys and gals would sure appreciate it.

1. No changes, I'd even say that tanking is easier since we can use HP guild boon instead of defense now.
2. Sellsword is the best dps/support companion.
3. Yes
4. Plague is good. Vorpal is better than Dread, huge part of GF dps comes from at-wills. Feytouched and Terror are viable too.
5. New Steel Grace and Combat Superiority are awesome. All OH bonuses suck.
6. All of them except Iron Warrior.

Hi there I returned to the game after a long time (Tiamat mod) I see a lot things changed - and I need bit help. Was searching for some GF manual on MMOMinds but all seems to be outdated cos of Mod 10 changes. I am running GF IV, and I feel bit lost now. Is there any site I can find tips for a builds suitable for current patch? I tried myself but I bet its not working as it should be. Filled gap in equipment with dusk/frosborn sets, obtained water arti set (damn crab grind) having full Lathander set, puted rank 7 enchants - all in all - ended with poor 2,6 GS and stucked there. I would like to be as tanky as possible with a bit of life steal (not sure if its a good idea). Any advice would be welcomed. Thanks and sorry for bothering you, but I am really up to the wall now.

Hey Bethel Can Conq tank FBI?

Tanking mobs/bosses seems easy, but since Steel Defense is bugged and doesn't work on Everfrost damage surviving with KV on might be a problem. Going into turtle mode with Guarded Assault/Shield Talent and spamming Fighter's Recovery might be the only way to protect the party as conq (at least until I figure out something better, need more testing).
