Not sure about slowable, but pretty much everything landed on him first shot (magic, fire, disease, cold) with 141 HCha, so I wouldn't be surprised if there was a breakpoint where it worked unless he's flagged as unslowable.

Today's Quarm had no haste belt for me (928 DPS), but he got absolutely SMOKED.

Signets also down to 500k for a pair for anyone looking to buy some.

When almost every combo is SP based, and you can get ATK everywhere too, the Signets don't seem to be that much better than Sigils to warrant that price difference?

I think the big price diff is in how hard they are to make vs how easy the sigils were to get. Also for a pair of those adding 26Hdex and 26Hagi and 16% dodge is fucking huge. Take a build like mine where I was Hdex starved by all the Spell Dmg I had to wear. Or a white dmg bulild which didt even wear the sigils because why? also the 74 attack is not to shabby either allows people to lose some of their stupid 15 attack augs and wear something else, like the diaku 20AC ones.

Surprisingly, the state of the DZ also seems to be saved to some extent. I died to him and took a shower and stuff and then went back to Time and he still had his debuffs.

Also I just tried Zeb. Lol.

Be advised that the Dodge on Might doesn't actually stack though (or #mystats doesn't reflect it), and so if you have another source of a Dodge skill modifier like Temporal Chainmail Sleeves (4%), then you aren't getting a ton of benefit there. Best to pickup Arcane for the 26 HCha instead if you cast any sort of detrimental spells at all.

Sure, it's a bit of a "I have way too much plat now, and I sure as shit don't want to do all the farming/tradeskilling" item, but it's still worth it in terms of being the best of the best no stat compromise item. And you don't need to be flagged to swap them around with the Councilman, so you can just buy whatever is cheapest.

The extra heroic stats, dodge mod, resists, almost 100hp, etc.? Pretty big upgrade.

I guess it depends on classes as for SK/Rog/Wiz or Petcuck it doesn't seem like that huge of an upgrade (but it is an upgrade). H-stats are 1% to dodge/riposte/parry/block (and I don't know how much each dodge skill actually adds to dodge percent) seem good, but not 250k good.

As Hippos said, the dodge skill bonus doesn't stack, as only the highest skill bonus is taken. Also, it's +skill points, not +8% dodge.

I guess?

250k for what is basically BIS for the next 4 months seems pretty reasonable to me 🤷‍♂️ .

Levelled my first alt from 60 to 65, the SK/rog/shm and then did everything in time up to Quarm who promptly ate my ass, everything before him were all 1 shots. Maybe he had a haste belt but I couldn't keep up even with chain tapping, had no time to even load dots up on him.

Having tried petcuck, clr/mnk/zrk, sk/rog/shm and war/bst/clr, favorite would have to be war/bst/clr. It has no skips but it can do 30 yellow/red mob pulls every minute with almost no risk of death and can't die to anything single target as long as it's not stunned for 20s while getting trucked like seru 3+.

For me it's a case of what are those earirngs going to get me. Prices are going to keep coming down and I don't see two of those earrings doing anything meaningful toward killing Zek, until I'm close to BiS in every other slot. Even then I'm not sure Zek is even doable with any class combos I currently have (outside of Petcuck, that I don't really like playing all that much).

Given I don't care about ATK, the Signet of Might seems pretty useless for my build. Already maxed on SP and same AC/similar heroics.

So I put seven semi-serious/suicide attempts in on the monster, and Zeb's first phase seems 100% do-able solo (depending on class comp/gear ofc), but the RNG nature of the encounter is legitimately a poor design decision (or deliberate one for whatever reason). A fight against the same mob shouldn't be drastically different between one attempt and another, and as an example-
One fight you'll get Fippy into an odd mole (Kurn's) into Qarrgy a CS otter for the first three waves, and they all DPS for under 300 without an AoE. Then the next you'll get Innoruuk, Trakanon, and Vulak that all hit for 1k DPS and toss out AoE's, all on top of Zeb's 1.25k-ish DPS, and it's just best to close your eyes and let the loading screen appear because you'll never have enough mana to get through the end. One suicide run I had Emperor Sssnakeshit spawn in at 79% and punt me across the room + slow me, and it was game over even though I still had more in the tank to see what happens.

He also has a bag in his hand for me today, so there might be loot other than the augs.

That's awesome. What was your best attempt? I gave it a half hearted attempt but He was massively resisting all of my -200 fire resist attack debuffs (even with drummed occlusion and 123hchai), so the attempt was pretty DOA out of the blocks.

On Quarm I'd kite to get the debuffs in, but Zeb is hilariously fast and I had to shut that down rather instantly.

there was a mob on the mischief TLP during GoD in the primal caves that would spawn holding a little bag in his hand when he had an aug, and he would absolutely truck. Think it sets their delay to 0 or something close to it, wed have to pop some type of 100% avoid disc to get it dead. I wonder if thats why zeb hits so fkn fast over here too.

Lol, next Quarm 622 DPS with no shield. The difference between an enchanted haste belt and regular Quarm is just crazy. I had to cast 16 heals compared with 65 on the other fight.

First bit of progress done, decided to go in and see how strong I was and got it on the first try. There's a lot of decent gear for cheap on the bazaar so I was just doing lguk from 30-40, getting some AAs there and the plat to get some gear. As someone who's never played much EQ or raided in it, this is cool to go through and see it.

You made an alt SK/Rog/Shm and just walked RZ first try? Ok, wtf am I missing? I gave a solid 6+ tries, each blowing through every cooldown and disciple I had. Best shot I got him to the 20% adds wave with a couple adds down, but then just get 2 taps that fail to crit in any way and I’m dead. I’m getting Malos and Cripple in before I start the encounter.

I’m using a shield and sitting at just over 3500ac. Pretty much Luclin BiS with 3 PoP BiS and an assortment of diaku frags / sleeper augs. Tips?
