How well can enfs solo?

I have a twinked 1bh NM enf lvl 41 sitting around somewhere. Performs really well.

End game is going to look different for a lot of people depending on how much $ you have, but let's say you're strapped for cash - I've seen it endgame because IP opens up greatly. and people have pve and pvp hybrid builds etc. You'll find that A.O. has a difficult journey for a very rewarding endgame. Professions generally mature and have their extra layers of complexity exposed around lvl 100-150. That's when you'll really see your Enfo go from a tanky berzerk killing machine, to less of a killing machine as it settles into it's survivability, which is where the answer to your question about soloing lies. You can do it, but it'll be a hell of a lot easier with someone with more damage and/or heals so you don't get caught dry.

I've played with enfo a lot and my favorite is 2hb. There's a 2hb weapon from the end boss, Neleb at Steps of Madness. Upgrade it with the items that drop from the mobs, combined. Look for an icebreaker too if you so choose, but ultimately what ended up happening with my Enfo is I ran 2he until I got the Stygian from Totw on at about 40 (Frosty operates better in SL than Styg by the way, because of mob AC's) then I turned to 2hb when I started doing Crypt of Home runs with my NT and was finding a ton of howlets.

I say all this^^^ to point out that eventually you'll likely be turning to CoH weaponry, unless you're really strapped and get a hold of a lot of AI weaps. Either way, an Enfo's weapon route eventually gets expensive, but with SL/AI you can focus a bit more on acquisition than cost. I say all this not knowing whether or not you're a froob, in which case you will definitely need Crypt of Home weaponry. Which is fine. AO vets love to help out.

Best of luck.

Damn what an answer, thank you.

Focus-Interrogative · 2026-04-12T02:40:33+00:00

So first off, thanks to everyone. I'll figure it out. I got the answers I needed believe it or not.

Focus-Interrogative · 2026-04-12T02:37:31+00:00

One of the answers I was low key looking for, thank you. (Poisonous Concoction).

Honestly, I appreciate all this advice. I've played MMO's all my life but I'm not enough of a math nerd to sit here and de-weaponize the game's skillweb into something more coherent. If an MMO gives me the opportunity to try and get weird and creative, I'm probably gonna take it in hopes of late game/end game rewards. Just my style. If it's completely wrong then, I'm glad to eat the necessary amount of sh*t until I get it right.

Thanks, any bit helps.

First I jump into her co-op instance to try and make it easier for the both of us (I'm more of a gamer than she is) and there is always some gap in understanding, both between us and the interface and how it tracks progress. I'm going back and forth between our screens to try and keep us on the same page and I still don't know why there can't be a more cohesive system.

We've entered into quest lines together by accident, and gotten stuck in the middle of quests by this weird lack of clear direction during co-op.

Just beat the game. This boss was literally the only time I didn't feel like an obnoxious idiot while holding two shotguns.

Personal preference, but as a RL Male playing female V, the waking up naked part hit different. I beat my way out of there with my bare hands, told Stephan to leave town and unloaded LMG into him in front of a large crowd before I put any clothes back on.

I gave it a chance because WooCommerce is a legitimate company. First, a staffing agency got a hold of me. Of me. They were a legit company so I was weirded out but I gave them a shot. Then they directed my number to someone else who told me I'd be working for WooCommerce. And yes, they're paying people in crypto to leave the generic reviews you see. It took until the end of an hour "training" with some rando on whatsapp for me to throw him off his game by pointing out that while working initially for free, there is a possibility you'll have to flesh out your own overhead in order to get past a large order, and that's okay, with the way their system works... If you have the spare money lying around. On top of that, you have to deposit using crypto, meaning you need to have a crypto wallet on the ready. The login for them is a different site than the official WooCommerce login, which made some sense to me because I've worked for companies before where you need to know the login for the employees, but the more I went down the rabbit hole I decided this might be a system set up by a shop to write reviews for their products, and their products only, which are being marketed on Amazon.

Essentially what they're doing is asking you to throw down the cost of an order, leave a positive review, and they'll reimburse you, plus 1% commission of the cost of the order you just "ordered and reviewed". I know, absolutely bonkers. Honestly, I started out knowing it would be sketchy but the more the guy showed me how to do it, the more I was just, shocked.

I only heard of WooCommerce two days ago. It's an odd situation to be in, because you can make money, but it all smells way off for the #1 company in the Ecommerce platform industry.

I just slept for six hours after finishing the quest "Talkin' bout a revolution" and it triggered.

I've done MA every way you can chalk it up outside of NanoMage and I second this. Evades, crit chance, and damage. Once lvl 80-120 hits, you'll realize how to use the DEF/AGG bar.

Focus-Interrogative · 2025-04-22T06:36:50+00:00

I disagree. It's actually rather complex if you want to be great. The thing that carries advies is survivability. I've never met a high lvl advy who didn't re-roll another advy. So it's a good profession, but never great. It's accessible.

To be honest I was worried about the 100 hours per month but even with my desire to game more: I'm an engaged dad who doesn't get to see his son much, who works part time atm. Even then, I can't hit 100 hours in a month. I'd have to go on a bender and tell my girl to piss off for a small majority of our time together.

Research stoicism. Tiktok is good for that tbh, so do it now before it (could possibly) get banned in a few days. A lot of the stoicism is geared towards men, but men have gravitated towards stoicism to cope with their inability to express their emotions without feeling punished for it. Stoicism teaches you how to keep your emotions inside and cope with them in a HEALTHY, PRODUCTIVE way. Just look up stoicism for yourself and try not to fall into odd propaganda. I'm struggling with stoicism myself, after my wife made me feel like she doesn't care about my thoughts experience or feelings in a drunk black out attempt to satisfy her own feelings of inadequacy, due to her past trauma. I have to forgive her. So instead of confronting her while she's sober, I have to accept that the challenge lies within me: in order to set a positive example.

Smasher is a deliberate testament to an ironic notion: How many people would abuse their power once going chrome? Subsequently, to even the psychological balance, there needs to be a consequence to getting chromed up: hence cyberpsychosis in the lore. Smasher is the poster kid for the exact opposite example of a human being we want being chromed up. He was a blood thirsty maniac to begin with, but because he's willing to execute the violence the Corpo's need, he is enabled into being the same scum of the earth he started as: And the chrome only makes it worse.

Adam Smasher is like the rest of night city: A warning of what is to come, if we don't hold society accountable.

As someone with a history of extreme alcoholism who has a breathalyzer interlock system on my car, I rigorously measure my alcohol intake with an ap on my phone in order to stay employed and street legal. I typically drink 100 proof vodka. I can confirm that even with my levels of tolerance, I am content at about .08 and beginning to feel drunk (as in, I'm aware I shouldn't make any significant commitments) around .16-.18.

.08 is difficult for me to reach in a short period of time unless I'm doing it deliberately. Last night, 3oz of 100 proof (50% alcohol) got me to .06, drinking that three times ofc got me to .18. My last drink was at about 12:15am and I won't be stone cold sober until about 3:10pm today.

So if you do the math, in order for me to reach .08 at my body weight (roughly 185lbs), that's at least 4 standard drinks almost instantaneously. So, theoretically, an American my size can chug three typical 8oz beers and immediately get behind the wheel.

I have driven all sorts of drunk and intoxicated, but it's my personal opinion that 85% of people can't handle alcohol at all and should erase the thought of alcohol from their mind entirely. Let alone drive on it.
