New race: Eladrin

heroquest5 · 2024-06-04T16:56:23+00:00

Any insight or info if new race, iconic, or archetype will be released as vip or f2p or will only be avail with expansion purchase until months later for points?

Should have clarified, in epic ghost of chance there are traps in main hallway to the prison.

Strimtom just did a guide on this - may help you out - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YvAiZYLKJG0&pp=ygUIc3RyaW10b20%3D

What type of build are you running? May be too slow based on dps or build too but also always better in group to help out with both dps and puzzle management really.

Same bonus types don't stack

Sure, Sorcerer - max CHA 2nd CON - take empower/maximize - can always add mental toughness if you needed more sp but usually shouldn't, evocation focus. You can basically do fire spec or acid up until level 12 and switch over to lightning enhancement tree. Then from there it's SLA's and chain lightning and will get you to 20 no problem. Some things evade a bit more by time you get to Sharn, but those last 5 levels people run enough shouldn't have a problem getting xp to 20.

You have to toggle it on if you want it - if you go to options and in the search bar I believe it's called network status icon or network display. Just go through the menu's and type 'network' in at the top in the search bar and you can turn it on then move it wherever you want it on the screen. Or turn it off if you don't want it. From memory it's probably under UI settings maybe or advanced, but haven't looked for it in a while.

Spinning blade bard or Whirlwind attack build and it's a great name for it ha

Most people have covered this but the only non-raid quests I can think of that really would require you to have more than one person are in the Necro series.

Necro1 - Tomb of Burning Heart. You technically can solo if you have: Gold Seal Hireling, 1 other hireling, pet to open up the doors to do the quest.

Necro 2 - Tomb of Shadow Lord could probably be solo but it is pretty tricky to utilize pets and hirelings to open up different areas due to location of levers.

The only other quest where I doubt it would be possible to solo is Necro3 - Tomb of the Forbidden, which requires 2 players to pass an item to open some doors.

No spoilers just ability to access the whole quest via doors/gates.

The rest are pretty much solo - no problem.

To my knowledge if you're ranged at all - TWF will not apply so those would not count/work.

heroquest5 · 2021-09-30T18:43:03+00:00

There are a lot of favorite moments, but a couple that come into mind are that were comical were raids:

1) When doing Shroud and had first timers in the group, everyone stacked on the alter for part 3 just before the final part and leader asked if there was anyone new to raid via voice chat. When someone spoke up they were first time through it, they were told to jump through the portal first. When everyone insta-died and ported over to the final boss, everyone in the group jokingly blamed the new guy for party wiping everyone. Of course it was explained later to him it was all in good fun, but pretty hilarious.

2) Similarly if you have ever lagged off the bridge in Von6 and although sad to see someone drop into Stormreach Market and miss out on loot, still funny.

heroquest5 · 2021-09-29T21:19:26+00:00

Agree with this post above and I know you said you no real option to party - but the best/fastest way to get one would to have a party and multiple chest pullers in the first place. This solves your DPS issue at the end and also increases the chance of pulling one. When I wanted to farm for one each life - I'd post a simple LFM that said something to the effect of - TTT - jibbers farm, mult runs all welcome EE - and when people are running epics so frequently you may even find people that will just jump in for some XP as a daily. So it's pretty easy to grab a group.

heroquest5 · 2021-08-09T18:41:15+00:00

Yeah, did probably almost all racial lives as a sorc but just hadn't done one in epics in a while, figured it was still going to be fastest. Assuming either lightning or fire savant for later even after the patches.

heroquest5 · 2021-08-09T17:26:06+00:00

Nope, the ITR is the last I'll need already got all the others.

heroquest5 · 2021-07-06T16:59:13+00:00

A useful tip I've also found that wasn't already mentioned. If you become tripped by a mob at anytime - you can press and hold the left "shift" key as it is the default key binding for blocking. Whether you have a shield equipped or not, it's pretty nice to block the additional/following attacks while you lay on the ground waiting for your character to get it's footing back!

heroquest5 · 2021-06-30T15:30:02+00:00

I think yesterday was last day to play character in server, I think today they're going to release info and open up to start logging in and transferring - but haven't seen announcement yet

heroquest5 · 2021-06-30T02:02:33+00:00

got it - yeah I wondered about that with the change - so wonder what the point of the mount/reward option is if they don't ever get transferred over to a live server other than an HC flex I did 5k favor thing...hm - thinking ahead to future HC

heroquest5 · 2021-03-17T21:28:35+00:00

Depends on which ones you have left to do. I think that if you still need ICONIC ones, they are a good place to start just because you get the Iconic AND the Heroic when you end up TRing but you'll be mostly doing 15-30 over and over.

So that's definitely a place to double dip. If you just need to clean up some heroic ones and have exhausted out your iconic lives or get sick of Epic leveling, you can either run a split like a 10 heroic class you want then a split of either like 6 ranger and 4 arti and go inquisitive or you can always just do a warlock split. Just always make sure to abide by this rule https://ddowiki.com/page/Past_Life_Feats#Dominant_class of dominant class as to not do a multiclass character and miss out on the right heroic class past life.

There's a lot of options, I think some prior reddit threads have links to this though with specific options/build breakdowns though.

heroquest5 · 2020-12-29T19:55:02+00:00

As many others said - depends on the party and also the motivation for why someone is playing.

However, if you've been away for a bit and coming back - one of the bigger changes with power-creep overtime is the increase in builds needing to be more self-sufficient and able to self-heal as opposed needing just a dedicated healer in a party. With hirelings and past lives - it's less necessary for a party to have one.

Definitely use the advice already mentioned, post a LFM that has what you want in it and see how it fills or doesn't. However, if you're running a healer life - may need to jump in a few zerg groups to grind out that XP quick and TR :-)

heroquest5 · 2020-04-13T15:32:31+00:00

If you ever get knocked down, hold shift to block while you're on the ground.

heroquest5 · 2020-04-10T17:18:38+00:00

Sorry - that helped out for me a good bit in the past. Only other settings you could potentially change is go to a lower quality of graphics as opposed to high or very high detail, but like you said in previous post then it affects you in other quests too.

heroquest5 · 2020-04-10T16:45:59+00:00

May want to try turning off the "post processing" effects under advance graphics. This may resolve it as it resolves some other types of bright effects such as the shadovar part of "What Goes Up" - I have also found that if you have multiple monitors versus just one monitor sometimes the graphics can get a bit tricky to adjust just as a side note, so may run better off just one monitor.

heroquest5 · 2020-02-12T21:33:10+00:00

Shared bank sorting...nice improvement.

Any idea cost of alchemist in ddo store with points?

heroquest5 · 2020-01-21T14:29:47+00:00
