Bard/Wiz/X can swarm almost all of PoFire with Twincast-autoCrit-DDD and Deftdance. It takes a bit of learning, but once you figure it out it's best. There is dividing fort between the front and the back, and you can run up the south wall of the front and hop the wall (might take a few tries to find the spot next to the lava-fall (river) that gets you high enough). While I haven't messed with melody before, a /melody DDD on repeat might work better, because even with DDD, it would occasionally cause some lag.
You can level up an item in 1 to 2 hours, although that might have been during the XP bonus, when I paying attention to leveling items. I'm not sure if the XP bonus is given to item leveling or not. Having issues with Quarm, after over a week of easy-ish kills, really killed my interest in this game and I am sick of leveling items, so I only really pushed items for the first two days the XP bonus was active.
I could only get DDD to work, as Wiz spells would, at best, lag me out too much and not allow me to get enough spells off and at worst cause a disconnect.

BTW something is fucked with the new pet #cmd shit before last night I never had an issue. But last night and today right now I hit my #petcmd ghold on and everything is fine until I fight the first dragon way down in the basement by sleeper. I hit ghold off attack the dragon and the aggro list populates with like 10 shit. Then my tank pet disappears and goes and kills them all. Now this is not a problem since everything except sleeper is trivial now, but it could be a problem somewhere else where its not.
Are any of you pet cucks experiencing this?

Luclin unlocked, Dozekar was the first challenge I ran into. It forced me to figure things out better, get 2 clicky buffs in the first 2 slots I can spam, get some dots + sympathetic strike, order my procs better and a few other UI things. At 324 AA right now, so lots more to grind but I wanted UP access to mix it up and farm plat too.

This is a week or two old and some people use the lute of flowing waters in ranged, but it should be close:

No, I have a completely different problem with my pets but I don't use ghold I use the hold all command for my group. My problem is that mobs aggro them randomly. For example, my class mix is sk/bst/mag and I am the one that tanks everything. Fighting inny in time when the adds spawn they run straight at the pets that are just doing DPS, positioning doesn't matter. This didn't happen until around 3 days ago. It's not really a problem except the SK pet thinks he's the man sometimes and gets pancaked.
I think all these bullshit changes that nobody wanted are to stop the afk exp that cucks are doing.

These changes do nothing for AFK exp.
you still have #petcmd guard here which still works exactly the same as before.
But now they changed all this shit which no one was asking for, and thats fine if it worked. But just like everything in this spaghetti code of a game, you change some shit up and 100 bugs appear.

Just got 50. Looks like xp stops if you are not unlocked yet, so getting some AA for a bit and then going after vox/nag. (or 40% of xp to finish up my froglock crown..supposedly there is a turn in for unlock as well even though its not listed in the quest)
How far into the expansion list is the server going, or does anyone know?

Just hail the Kunark flag guy and select explorer option and he'll tell you the items needed. Takes 4 and they all have to be legendary.

I think the last time I did all this was Agnarr with Faceless and I can't remember half of this little stuff. I meant to look it up but didn't ultimately care enough to fool with it but I was curious how much was og flagging and Heroes Journey. Nevertheless, I've had a good time with it. We have a small group of friends taking all this stuff on and it's interesting to go through these fights with 3-4 people compared to an entire raid force.
I also just learned a few days ago that Zeb is an encounter which is interesting. I would have thought that Druzzil would be one too. Also, if you had trouble with Seru+4, once you get 65 and some gear, its a much different fight and actually tolerable.

Reading some of the "bug" reports on discord, I think they are trying to sneak some AFK bullshit into the game. Basically if you are flagged as AFK, not moving for xxxx amount of time, no mobs will spawn in the zone. Basically combating the AFK exp that pet cucks enjoy. Its broke as fuck right now, and breaking shit in zones, but eventually they will get it right. Say goodbye to AFK exp with pet. LOL ive leveled up like 3 characters with 2.5K AA each this way in DN with mage pet bag. Too bad those days are numbered it seems.
Now on to other things, im trying to level up some PoT shit I got for a few of my characters now and the shit is disgustingly slow. Takes like 4-6 PoF mobs to inch an item 1%. 400-600 mobs per item is fucking crazy. Times this by like 6-8 items you need to level thats like 3-4K mobs you need to kill per chartacter. This shit is just getting old. We have to either win the lotto for a lego drop, spend like X10 the amount of money for a lego item, or constantly grind shit. Its making alts really unenjoyanle let alone the main you have.
I dont mind grinding, in fact I rather enjoy it, but this is to the next level.

Good. It's the only class that has to put forth zero effort into leveling items and AA. I hope they do find a way to eliminate it.

On the topic of the afk exp situation I'm a bit worried lately that these guys take it too seriously after their huge success. Exp is so fast and who cares if some people afk their AA, really? THJ is amazing because you level fast, stuff is somewhat easy to kill and gear easy to get. That made the difference to live where everything is slow. Well not compared to 99 EQ you know what I mean.
The attunement changes to augs, T3 PoP, Sep and other changes I am bit worried that they fck up things, really. On the other hand their plans for hardcore and solo self found sounds good (recent podcast on YT with Stoic).
However if they want a challenging game with their three classes concept in which meta builds can't faceroll the content they can only achieve this at the cost of punishing the casual players. If encounters are designed to be challenging for BIS pet cucks and SK/ROG/SHM or MNK/BER/CLR then Dany the DRUID/WAR/RNG with this mediocre gear will be fucked forever.
