Speaking for the low levels on a PvE server, I'd say sins just because they're the most likely to go into PvP mode.

That is a lot of vit. You must have around 70-80 already, right? I'd stop putting any in for quite a while. With that much taken out of your mag, I'm not sure if you could solo TT1-1 single mode when you get to it. Your pet heal is going to be a lot weaker than it could be, but it's not as much of a difference as some…

0/10 Go practice your trolling a bit more before targeting the GMs.

Ever heard of capital letters? Might make the whole thing more reader-friendly. Also, general formatting, e.g. bolding and/or increasing font size of headers, bullet points for lists, etc., would be nice. For specifics, 'squadmember' and 'aggrostealer' should be split into two words each, and 'supoort' and 'squishes'…

Alternatively, seeing as the OP is over level 30, they could just fly right to them lol.

But then you're talking about a ranged pet, not a magic tank. Magic tank is the term given to pets like the frogling or the carapest that have extremely good m.def. Neither the Eldergoth or the cactopods have good magical defense, but they are used like that because they're the only ones that can.

Sure, the bosses you mentioned have magic attacks, but they will choose to melee primarily unless they're being range tanked. The only one of those that will only use magic is Trioc, which is why I mentioned him. There aren't any pets classified as "magic tank" pets that can attack at range, so they're rather incapable of…

A good water pet is nice for the quests from 40 to 60, but the amount of time it takes to level a water pet is far greater than the time saved by doing so. It's better to just use the highest level tortoise you can catch and ditch it when you're done. As such, saying "water pet" doesn't really answer what the third slot…

Yan is extremely easy to solo with an Eldergoth, just saying. Grats on the other two though. Also, I'm just wondering 'cuz I never bothered with them, but are mp apoth pots cheaper or more effective somehow than using Soul Transfusion followed by hp pots or Second Wind? I can see it being the case if you've got a lot of…

I had forgotten about that. Once you get to 40, if you still find you don't have enough spirit, then dump the exp you get from your BHs into a genie and keep the spirit for yourself. This will also get around the coin issue, as grinding and questing instead of BHing for levels will give you enough coin for your skills and…

A Venomancer trainer in one city is the same as in any other. There's another one in Southwest Arch, just outside the area with General Summer and the forges. That one should be easier to get back and forth from at your level (although the lag is even worse than City of the Lost).

I remember some spirit issues around that level, but not enough that I felt I needed to ask about it. Feeding your genie spirit probably has something to do with it, but it's also equally likely you're trying to level up too many skills. What have you been upgrading? You weren't very specific about that.

Bash doesn't just do more damage than the elemental skills when alongside Ironwood, it tends to do more damage in general, because, for some reason, mobs tend to have higher resistances than physical defense. I have both and the even though icicle is level two and bash is level one, the only time I notice icicle doing more…

This is true, but can you really expect people to limit themselves down to the damage output of your pet? When people are stealing aggro from even barbs in parties, you have to compensate for the stupidity of others in whatever way possible. It's still possible to steal aggro from your pet soloing (unless you're just…

The way you describe tab-selecting mobs makes me think you really don't know how it works. Tab-selecting does not produce random or even difficult-to-predict results. The way it operates is simple and effective and if you cannot learn this process you simply aren't trying. I recognize you are an authority on venomancers…

Except that a key part of tanking is aggro management, and ranged pets have none of that. Being able to successfully kill something at a lower level with one pet than you can with another doesn't mean the first pet is a better tank. Also, why does it seem I'm the only person who knows how to shift click or tab select a…

There really is no reason to get a magmite unless you really can't stand the look of the Glacial Walker - and personally, I don't get how someone can hate the Glacial Walker but like the Magmites. Hating both I can get, but how do you draw the line in the middle when it comes to golem aesthetics? Anyway, both of the…

I soloed my own bh29 at either 48 or 49 with a marksman, but I was just doing it to see if I could. I don't think I even had a wheel when I did it either, I was just using one of the quest rewards around that level. It's extremely hard, though, and unless you're just farming for molds instead of trying to level it's better…

It's worth noting that utilizing the exploit you mentioned to use fists in fox form is a bannable offense, and unlike some other exploits you can't really hide it from other players who would want to report you.

The most OP veno skill isn't Ironwood, it's Heal Pet.

If you need a new weapon, killing fb19 bosses isn't the way to get it. Work on your blacksmithing, and try to craft yourself a good magic weapon that way. Generally, as was said above, you don't have to be too worried about your weapon at the low levels. You'll be leveling quickly enough anyway, and for the most part…

No, what I meant was to get a two or three starred weapon with a required level of 30-something, like a Raybender Sword.

The other moon can be seen anywhere in the far east of the map, I think. I first noticed it when I went to Angler's Village for the first time.

I managed to kill all of those mobs myself at around the level I received the quests for them (except maybe Yansheng, I can't remember if I took him myself or not; I think I did though). I'm a full mag veno though, so my pet heals had a bit more kick to them, but I don't think you should have that much more trouble than I…

The basics of item colors are pretty adequately described in the post above, so I won't cover that. I'd correct that blue just means there's an added attribute to an otherwise plain, white item, and that the origin of blue items could be random drops for the one stars or quest/crafting for either two or one star. There are…

Sometimes I just love this game's playerbase. Unfortunately this is a rare feeling :(

People want to make money? For themselves? Oh no!

Could possibly even be an unaware god. :)
