Sounds legit to me. Good luck finding clerics after your first foray~

Really? Other than clerics and archers, every single other class has to wait until 30 to finish it. You're making us look bad, do us all a favor and choke. This has been the rule since the first non-elf discovered the quest, it's not like you're the only one "suffering" here.

Depends on the situation: Most often, I like to lead with puncture/slipstream, but I find that the combo is pretty inefficient in practice, because I end up needing to move the extra 2 points of range to get in melee. Slipstream/puncture does the same thing, but sometimes I lose a tick of bleed damage; really not all that…

Yes. I'd be constantly reminded of racial demographics. ~Terraa

sar-chasm ('sar-"ka-z&m) : The giant gulf (chasm) between what is said and the person who doesn't get it. And yet, I'm surprised.

You're absolutely correct. I really should've factored those into my calculations, but I guess hangovers take their tolls~ There are other things to take into account as well, like being able to use both skills over the course of a mob's life, but I'm missing Futurama re-runs!

... Anyone who would answer my question based on no data would get a swift kick to the ovaries. I answered the question as I would answer any question involving math. He called for clarification -- that's about as clear as it can get. Jerk.

That solely depends on your damage value and the comparative integer... Despite the fact that you disgust me by not knowing this upfront and still managing to hit 50 within 8 days, analyzing this would be beneficial to everybody upfront. Consider my physical attack: 615-804 And now consider several skills I have, plus the…

That's kinda cool. I used my left hand in archery, I feel I can aim better with my left because it's much less shaky, but I'm right-handed on everything else. Though I'm trying to teach myself to be dual-capable, and I started by playing wii-tennis with my left. I rock, but then I tried with my right hand and I lost a good…

Bow equips to the left hand, which would be counter-productive to a leftie versus intuitive with a rightie~

Don't -- the game WAY changes for us at 29. I've developed a strategy that makes it fun to grind, which is something that hasn't occurred since I learned how to AE kite.

EDIT: Thought I'd mention my credentials; if all I have to offer is I have an 82 cleric and my assassin is gg, then my opinion doesn't count for much. It still might not, but at least I'll try: Played EverQuest since 2002, when I was 12; if you ever want to stop playing EQ, try dueling. Duels against a paladin regularly…

Since you stated in the first line you didn't bother to read everything before responding, I'll do us both a favor and not give you the benefit of the doubt that you know what you're talking about. The size of your mana pool has *nothing* do to with how long you can keep stealthed (at least by the time you get it --…

Unfortunately, 1k hits isn't enough to test this, though; ask anyone who's played any games involving chance that little, you're gonna need a good 30k+ trials to really determine if it's true. The problem becomes in PWI you'll have to count this manually, because it doesn't include a log function like so many other games,…

Good idea. Let's reverse the whole idea, get rid of Tideborn, and everyone will be barbs again. Dumbass.

I haven't had a problem with anything you've listed. At all. The only thing I agree with you on the slightest on is mana usage from Shadow Walk, but it's not difficult to manage anyway. The current formula: f(mana)=-x+25 where x is skill level What would be ideal: f(mana)=-2x+26 I actually thought it was going to be the…

I didn't say using potions wouldn't be more expedient, I simply said using powders is like using a cannon to slay a baby. Sure, you get the job done, but you spend the next 7 minutes having an excess of baby-blood surrounding you. You won't even need a set of perfect potions to match the regeneration rate of level 1 shadow…

It's just a graphic glitch. You don't actually have the arrows equipped, they count as inside your inventory (without taking up a slot). You'll get the display on character sheet, but not really have it.

The problem with this is that it relegates us to using stealth for only 10 minutes. If we don't stealth, we won't need the powder, but if we do stealth and click powder, we could be done using stealth for the remainder of the time. The greatest thing about focus powders and their upgrades are that they work wonders for…

Life powders work wonders. Hardly have to stack Focused Mind, ha. Your problem is the dryads. They attack a *lot* faster than anything else near your level. Use everything you can to stop them from hitting you; once you get Rib Slash, they're much easier to handle, as well. I soloed the lame named dryad, the level 30 quest…

Are you serious? The expansion hasn't yet been out one week, and you're already a professional on how we're going to perform in PvP? Maybe we wear LA because we don't need HA, because the point of our existence is to slay you before you have a chance to react. The LA now exists so casters won't magic us before we're able…

This is pretty much the best explanation to date I've read to portray why it's a good idea to deviate from copypasta "do this build and stick to it" cookie-cutter characters. Every point of dex is adding 2 max damage; woo. The only thing you're losing out on at this point is critical hits, but at the levels we're playing…

All day? Hardly. I spend about 10 minutes total auto-pathing to pick up some nectar and golden herbs while making high scores in Minesweeper, then the better part of 2 hours min/maxing my usage of life powders to ensure the biggest bang. There are also several things wrong with what you said: If mobs are dying in 8…

The majority of NPCs at least till the 40s do physical damage. The 1/4 build suits such that you can get the 12-level HA at 23, whose AC you won't match until you hit 30 with LA. Why waste the levels with bogus resists that won't increase your survivability, when you can take a good chunk less damage towards 30, decreasing…

It'd be rational that the wings are in fact 6.2, or at least display they are 6.2 in-game; the same goes for the Iridescence wings, which are also 3.2/6.2.

My word... That font is deplorable! You should really kick it down a knotch or two. No wonder wizards are so squishy; you can't see the action behind all that text!

To be perfectly fair, you're right in that most mobs don't have AEs over 40 meters (though most bosses with significant AEs have greater than 26.5, in my experience), but a mob does not engage at max range from a cleric's attacks (with the exception of primeval towerlings, and the like). They get within range for their own…

That. I'm working on a theory whereby I can triple, drop a stream, and rezz the whole group.

You saved me a 6 paragraph rant! Thank you <3

Really? You think the name of a guild influences the actions of the players? When I hear "Triad", I don't think of any Chinese criminal actions, I think "triangle". There's also a YaKuZa on Lost City, and many of them are white-named, and considering many people seem to associate "red-named" with "****-hole", one would…
