    my recommendation is that you shouldnt install it at all, since those 2 skills are pretty important. but if you must install blessing, then get rid of reflect, you'll lose the ability to aoe grind and the extra dmg to keep aggro on herc, but you'll still have an aggro holding skill for bosses and such.

    And i believe this should be posted in the venomancer section =O

    Get a second herc, remove pounce, add blessing. Keep a herc with bash for clearing, grinding, and so on. Use the herc with blessing for bosses. You don't need bash to aggro bosses (unless it's a pure ranged boss like stygean), reflect is more than sufficient. You'll probably have to almost always level it up in cube though because it's aggro will just be horrible on regular mobs.

    I have yet to encounter this "Blessing of the pack" pet skill. What's the scoop on this skill (what drops it, what does it do, etc..)? Thanks in advance b:thanks

    get rid of bash, if you know it and your party knows it you can adjust dmg accordingly so no one pulls agro.

    Herc's HP is already hard to fill for just one veno. Multiple venos healing doesn't leave room for simultaneous heals. Opportunities and practicality for taking advantage of ability are probably rare (limited to possibly World Bosses and TT 3-3?). If you look at phys to mag atk ratios on WB, you'll see that they tend to be much harder phys than mag. I think you could solo them sooner with a ranged pet using Blessing, Protect, or both BUT you'd be missing out on the Reflect dmg a Herc would provide. I've seen this skill for sale for 50m before. If I had it and could sell for even 40m, I'd probably sell. I've seen Protect much cheaper twice (bought both times), and already have it on my Marksman and about 4 levels ago my marksman was taking hits fine for a while from a WB, I just needed better healing.

    Brael's advice about getting another Herc isn't bad. I considered doing this to make a grinding herc (with claw / bash) and a boss tanking herc.

    definatly sacrifice bash for it. reflect makes bosses die so much faster and is useful for aggroing a pile of mobs at once. bash is not that important, just useful for keeping aggro on normal mobs and elites

    Get another herc XD

    we got a herc with blessing for tougher boss

    and a herc with claw for easy bosses

    blessing only useful if you're tanking tougher boss in HH either solo or with another veno healing.... full channeling gear and sometimes with red bubble...

    thats how we do it XD

    hmm... is a lv97 veno supposed to know? considering lloyd said it's from dragon temple, and i have never been there, well i guess there's your explanation... b:chuckle

    EDIT: also, would be nice if they have things in this game that you can only get in weekly instances at specific time, that they would vary the times or open it up multiple times during the day/week. the people that aren't available to play PWI during those weekly set times kinda unfairly miss out, no?

    How do you claim a fixed price for something that rare? It's not even near as rare as pounce.

    thats what the higher level venos with lots of extra money pay for it. its called watching the market.

    For something that shows up less than once a month: there is no market.
