I have been havin a hellova hard time as a bm finding zhen parties on heavens tear that want me to b a part of them. Its always "need dd' and need clerics" and im wonderin, dont people need lurers, usually 2 with a speed skill to mob up and hold agro because they can get to the damage zone faster then any other class?

    Just be lucky you can find any zhen party at all, im a 66 cleric and a party didnt want me because i wasnt level 67. Whats the point in refusing a cleric a chance to level up and reach the level you require for your party? Its stupid really

    of course its hard to find a job as a lurer for BM, this is because they can be easily replaced by a barb or a veno depending on the zhen location. On the other hand, DD's which are mages or archers are the hardest to find because they are the ones that must sacrifice their mp charms and arrows (if archer). To a lurer all they have to spend is a a exp scroll which is 36-40k. Archers spend around 400k worth of charm on top of a exp scroll. Lurers are basically just getting free amounts of exp and should be grateful if they found a party.

    Try beign a Veno and frinding a Zhen Party! Even with a max speed mount!

    However, BMs are easily replaceable becuase their little speedy skills is obtainable by anyone with Apoth. >.>! But but! BMs don't NEED Zhen Parties. You can AoE Grind by yourself. Get a Charm, Roar of the Pride, and use your AoEs and BAM! All the loot for you too.

    My Proh does it with me all of the time. he is very very good at it.

    AoE really just depends on the type of BM you are though. Myself, I am a blade user and therefore lack in the better AoE attacks. I might ask for a zhen party one or two times a week, and normally I don't have that much difficulty doing so. It just depends on the people you know.

    at those people who tell BMs to aoe grind
    even WITH my axe aoes on my BM
    she's a fist so she can only use lvl 37 axes or 29 hammers
    so yeah it's not like i can do anything efficient with them
    and i mean at this point the only aoeable mobs are lvl 75
    hitting 500s on them isn't really that fun >>
    so yesah it does depend on the type of BM
    axes are best for aoe
    followed by pole
    then sword
    then fist
    and i'm talking with axes

    You took the wrong path b:bye On a serious note, if you are a sword or fist BM, your str will not be enough to wield axes that really help you for AoE grinding. That's why it's 1vs1 for you. It sucks that if you are not able to use high level axes, you are out of luck. You really can't find squads for zhen/RB. As a pole BM, I might succeed on getting some axes that help me, but not for a long time.

    Yeah, but if you dare post a new thread on a topic that has been discussed, you get 15 people calling you a noob for either not posting in an existing thread (in the case of an old, but still relevant topic) or stoopid noob if it's a question that has been answered in a previous thread.

    Some days, no matter which way you go, you are flame fodder for someone. b:surrender

    Doesn't matter what other people say, it's what the GMs state that matters;
    Necromancy: Any thread over one month (30 days) old is considered to be a dead thread. Posting in a dead (necro) thread will cause it to be locked. Repeated posting of dead threads can result in a ban from forums/game.

    So if a thread is over a month old, just create a new one. No worries.b:victory

    With that said, I wonder if people still hold Zhen parties now with BH and other new dailies around.

    Occasionally. I was asked to be in one a few days ago by a factionmate, and, I saw WC advertising one I think yesterday. Not completely dead yet.

    It is allowed to bump old threads if you are adding something new, and not trying to ignite an old flame war, start a new one or just bumping an old thread to the top.

    That used to be the case, but not anymore apparently.
    See this:

    Welcome back btw.b:mischievous

    Good to hear that, although RBs are probably more economical if they're completed succesful.
