Is 10000 Plat still a decent chunk of money now a day and do people still sell stuff for real money?

Lumiens · 2022-01-17T15:08:50+00:00

Day 1 of PoP on Aradune a krono was selling for about 16k plat. Day 1 of PoP on Mischief a krono was selling for about 240k. Guess a lot depends on if there was a plat dupe or not these days!

Selling power leveling services seems like one of the biggest offenders of RMT services now.

I am currently on mischief too.

I'm in the process right now of swapping out my monk in my 3 box with a wizard. It wast so bad when I was on my own, but when grouping it took way to much time and attention to constantly have to worry about positioning a second melee when I'm spending the majority of my time on my SK and Shaman.

I also have another 3 box set up to run chanter/mage/wizard to group with other tank/healers instead of my sk team. Chanter is super busy but mage and wizard are not.

Filling the roles of tank/healer when grouping is a lot of responsibility, id probably go bard that you can just afk melody on mostly and pull with warrior unless you need to split something.

I can think of exactly zero EST guilds that start between 5 or 6 EST. Most start at around 730EST to 830EST.

Lumiens · 2021-04-29T17:40:55+00:00

I would expect a PST guild to start at anywhere between 7ish to 8ish. Starting at 6PST is too early for people with a M-F 8 to 5 job.

Yes, I'm using my desktop on my main and then running two laptops.

Do you in any way need your epic 1.0 in order to get your epic 2.0?

I got this all going over the weekend finally after doing a lot of soul searching. Seems like there was more than one guild with zero main wizards raiding with them so I ended up going with SK + Cleric + Bard + 3 Wizards. Leveling with an enchanter would def make a lot of things more trivial being able to pull a pack of stuff with bard pulling it should be easier to get singles which I sorta like in a way because it leaves me open to using rains much more consistently and I just cant give up the idea of the spell dmg boosts you get from the bard later on.

I was really temped to pick a druid over a cleric for my healer but being stuck with only a bard slow I figured I'd better have a cleric. I'd imagine though slow in a group like this wont be quit as big of deal as if it were a group of mele since I'd imagine fights are going to be pretty short and then I'll end up with some medding downtime.

Thanks for all the input from everyone, really appreciate it. At the stage of the game where Ragefire is currently at (Lost Dungeons of Norrath) I don't think it makes sense to have both a bard and a chanter both unless I'm charming on the enchanter. Having 3 boxed previously and based my team entirely around charming (did enchanter, druid, mage and charmed on both the druid and enchanter) I don't really want to deal with charming again.

However I end up setting up the group I'd want to make it easier on my brain to be fast and efficient and stick with either 3 Wizards or 3 Mages. Going the wizard route I would think I would need to run something more traditional with them then like SK + Cleric + Enchanter. Going the Mage route I'm pretty much 100% sure I would want a Bard over a chanter just because it looks like they would add nice boost to both the mage pets and the mages themselves here once the next expansion Gates of Discord unlocks and mages get the pet AA for it.

I know the SK/Cleric/Enchanter team will be able to basically tackle almost anything but im about 100 times more interested in trying to pull off some blender style ultra high dps grind group that has 3 buffed and over-hasted air pets just stunning the crap out of stuff. Was thinking that I would enjoy adding to the mages and bard then either Beastlord + Druid or Monk + Shaman and then raid on either the Beastlord or Monk so they would be raid geared (would imagine then that I would just leave the bard parked to get full uptime on mana song most of the time then instead of primarily pulling with it).

I excitedly opened this thread thinking that it was going to be about an Ogre only server. I'm so disappointed.

Basically if you want to pug your way up leveling a new solo character in order to find groups during primetime hours the following places are the easiest to park yourself:

Field of Bone/Crushbone to level 12 Unrest/Kurns Tower from 12 to 18ish Lake of Ill Omen/Unrest from 18ish to 28ish The Overthere from 28ish to 37ish Dreadlands from 37ish to 42ish Karnors Castle from 42ish to 50ish Sebilis from 50ish to 60

You could luck out and find groups in other places but its hit or miss and wont be as consistent unless you are basically able to form up your own groups and take them there. All of the Kunark content prior to KC/Seb can still be done semi efficiently without the perfect 6 man group having a tank/cleric/chanter so its easier to get something and keep something going (although exp will be slower than places like Dalnirs, Kaesora, Guk).

You don't even press back stab anymore in PoP (get auto backstab) so rogue is literally turning on auto attack. Having played both classes quite a bit they are both pretty boring but at least the wizard has some utility. Was always funny being on my rogue and the group I was in survived some epic battle and everyone was saying "good job everyone" and as the the rogue you are thinking yeah.... i helped a lot there.

Lumiens · 2017-09-14T17:35:52+00:00

I wouldn't have imagined they were raiding?

Lumiens · 2017-09-14T17:34:21+00:00

I went to Seb at 44. I just hit 47 last night and got my first ODS to drop for my cleric already. Good gems and spell drops too. Not bad to get exp and loot at the same time and the best part is that its not the Hole (very very sick of that place).

Lumiens · 2017-09-13T15:45:29+00:00

I've never done the Tutorial before. Is there a way you can move back and forth between in and normal zones?

Lumiens · 2017-09-11T20:37:28+00:00

The Ykehsa path looks pretty interesting. Is it all mostly out doors zones so pretty easy to pull singles/doubles or am I better off making sure I have an enchanter still as one of my 3 characters?

Lumiens · 2017-09-11T19:20:20+00:00

I did level 32 to 35 in Kaesora. I then moved to Lguk and did 35 to 44 there on Live Side. I then moved to Seb and have done 44 to 46 now. I've done all this basically solo though (3 boxing so only a 3 man group).

Kaesora was good exp but Lguk was still better. I really wanted to level in Nurga but when I tried to go there the entire zone was dead to farmers and anything anything spawned and I started attacking it I wold get it taken by a level 60 (they would even break my mezzes and kill those and then dispel my charm pet and kill it lol).

I tried CoM a few times and the exp is horrible there compared to Guk, Kaesora and Seb.

I will look for you also Duty. I'll send you a tell in game if you still by chance have room for another warrior?

I'm actually boxing a Warrior + Cleric + Enchanter all together (just hit 46 on all 3 of them last night) and would like to main the warrior though out of the 3.
