If y go to the discord class theory crafting thread, under the CLERIC/ZERC/MNK they have a pinned spreadsheet that outlines the best AA to get for those classes. For shaman you can check the SHM/ROG/SK which also has a spreadsheet or pinned posts about which shaman AA to get for best bang. But it seems like youve already figurd ou the shaman ones, AA malo and AA 75% slow is godsend. Get the bear form AA and the Aa that decreases the time for the bear form. The bear form gives you 300 attack, strength and dex over cap and extra healing for like 5 min and if you have the timer AA done you only have to wait like a min 30 for the next recast. Its pretty much an everlasting dmg buff.

Oh and on the zercer, make sure to keep your throwing skill maxxed. Make a macro to spam during a fight. One of their combat books you pick up later relies on the throwing skill. And its one of the ones that you spam.

Monk kicks and punches rely on the AC of the boots and gloves. So the more AC the gloves and boots have, the more dmg they will do. I was kicking and punching shit for 400-500 at lv3 with my monk.

Just last night I got to elemental, taking my time. But that was the hardest fight by far for my class makeup SK/ROG/SHM. All the other stuff was a cakewalk. Well see about the elemental shit, but yeah, that Rallos fight was a bitch. Per my parser I had 59 adds when I killed him. After like 4-5 tries it dawned on me to try the AOE slow. And that finally did it and I killed him.
Oh that makes me feel better. I’m the same classes and evade saved my ass.

It's probably worth grabbing a palladius axe and just level it up slowly while poor eh? legendary is like 40k on baz vs 1300 for a base version

Was able to solo all of time including Quarm. What a close fight that was. Probably will pass on Zeb.

Yeah, this is where I'm at.

I've passed on all the "pinnacle" bosses so far. BB wasn't worth the loot and Seru 4/4 was too difficult without a pet build.

That fight is buggy as fuck too. I saw a stream of 4 peeps trying to do it the second day after POP launch and it was a shit show. Zeb summons one of the end game bosses every 5%. First is vanilla, then Kunark, then Velious then luclin and finally PoP. All RNG too. So you could get easy ones or hard as fuck ones. Well those bosses should be coming in neutered, but thy are not. For instance the Lucy boss that came in was Aten Ha-Ra and cast her fucking silence and everyone dies, because you know, no heals and zeb is quadding you for 6K a hit, lol. And thats just the first phase. No one ever got him to 2nd, at least none that I know of.

Plus the scaling is fucked too. Cata basically said do not try this fight with more than 2 people because you will fail every time.

It's cool that the pinnacle fights exist and I'm betting Zeb will drop the Charm slot AUGs, but I just don't have any interest in groupable content.

If I'm going down that road, I'll just play a modern MMO. Or I'd at least give it a shot if they added the 0-4 mode like they did with Seru. But it seems like the only version of him is going to require at least a duo.

I agree. At least time itself seems to be soloable if you have some sort of build that makes sense. I was worried that all of time would be duo only. And only the 1%ers would be able to solo it, you know the ones with 5 million in BIS augs and shit.

Time is extremely soloable. Quite a few builds have done Quarm now. His biggest PITA is the disease slow, but plenty of classes have workarounds and Shield of the Immaculate that everyone forgot about.

Time flagged on war/bst/clr, everything was easy except Rathe which sucked cause there was no way for me to split. Ended up just rooting off 2-3 and dying then running back to kill them off each time, good thing they removed the 6 minute timer that they need to all die within or this would be undoable by a lot of builds.

Cleric pacify/calm line does not work there? Or do they just all leash together?

Big deviation from the guide- no six minute time limit (the limit is either gone, or over 15 minutes) on killing the remaining 11 Rathe council members once you down the first one. Had been in the process of staging them and realized it was just outright impossible solo for me with the expected six minute limitation, so went ahead and sent it as the server was coming down and got my flags done.

Only thing left now is to key for Time tomorrow and then the real challenge begins. Would never have gotten remotely this far without Aspect of the Reptile, 100% needed addition for Druids both in general and due to our pets being absolutely worthless now.
Did you get Reptile from the rune turn in? SK has a similar spell, but the only thing I can find on it is that it's not actually a PoP spell and the wiki says it drops from the same place reptile does (Fabled Nag).

Fennin and Xegony down. Just Coirnav and Rathe left for tomorrow. Then, what seems like a slog of an XP grind to 65 for Time.

Xegony armor guards were fun to split. They each chain 3k and 1k nukes from range and there are 3 of them. I dont know how anyone without splitting capabilities can manage.

I believe it drops from Kunark dragons, but I didn't get it to drop after a couple kills so I went ahead and just bought it on the second day of PoP.

Hasted Quarm down first try (though it didn't feel like the haste was being applied), tweaked my healing macros and everything was pretty straightforward aside from a couple dips below 40%. Still shitting my pants the entire fight though.
