Be me, cruising along the start of A3. Get to mighty silverfist, lose the fight a couple times because almost all of his abilities 1shot me and the ones that don't do 90% of my life and i'm tired of spending 5 minutes per fight to get him to 30-70% before dying to one. Decide to move on. Can't move on because I respawn at his checkpoint and immediately get aggro'd, over and over. Can't portal because bossfight, can't respawn in town because it's not an option, only option is to close the game or try to run through an entire respawned zone with a boss chasing me so my only other option is to alt f4 and restart the game.

10/10. Such challenge, many mechanics wowe. No other devs would've never come up with something this brilliant, it's a whole new level of gaming genius.

git gud fgt

yeah, the checkpoint aggro/respawn is a baffling choice.

I've needed a new weapon for a while hobbling through the campaign and have been trying to interact with the system as it stands. Find a base, transmutation, augmentation, fuck. Level up check merchants. Find something promising slam it a few times.

Looking at the trade site I should have just bought a huge upgrade for like 5ex.

I've realized this as I looked more and more into the trading website. I have wasted so many exalted orbs on bullshit.

Speed of use, potentially cheaper at times.

What level were you for the 3rd one? Think I'm at 51 or 52 nearing the end of Act 2 Cruel* kinda want to get it over with but wasn't sure when it was intended.

76.. I think? I did it in the glass cannon build I had earlier but with the Relic tab FILLED. After respecing and getting rid of the "All evasion now equals armor" talent, Im a hell of a lot beefier. The diminishing returns on armor start to kick in at that point, and it was one of my initial gripes with the Youtubers build I followed. Now Im at 66% armor, 57% evasion. Instead of just 70% armor.

I feel like they should've increased the loot storage by normalizing how much space things take, everything is 1x1 except 2h and body armor which is 1x2

Be me, thinking that restarting my game would put me in town and i'd be able to continue my character. Jokes on me, I start at the checkpoint that I can't escape. Only option is to roll a new char or faceplant into this boss for however many 5minute fails it takes til I get a 10 minute success.

11/10 it's even better than I thought it was a few minutes ago.

Thinking of starting a new one. Looked at Ranger and seems like Merc is really popular but no idea if it's any good or was just "new" this time. Any ideas I played Sorc and got tired of it rapidly.

Run in the opposite direction of the boss, surely there's a leash on it.

Otherwise this is an Everquest forum, run to the zone line.

Invite someone to kill the mob that is high level. Must be someone in the guild to do that. Just dont move when you spawn at the checkpoint.

My fire bois are getting there!

Just wish the 5 and 6 link Jewelers would drop at all.

Warrior. Which is of course what I'm playing now. (It's actually been easier than my monk through A1, though most of that is because I know what I'm doing now.)

It's the chayula monk and it's not close.

That entire ascendancy is built around mechanics and interactions that don't exist/aren't implemented yet

Yea but you can play the chayula monk, nothing is stopping you lol. I feel bad for anyone that thought it looked cool and picked it.

It plays fine tbh. I picked it and just played elemental build. The added chaos damage to attacks / instant leech / flame sustain are all solid.
