welp i cleared all of VP easily except for PD. looks like he has a poison, disease, and magic debuff that he puts up, not sure which one is the slow (or maybe they all are) but the shield clicky does not do anything to get rid of the disease debuff? I checked it looks like it's called Drake Decay and it should be dispellable? But i could not clear it spamming the shield..
I also don't have any way of clearing magic or poison, I would say the purge poison AA from rogue but if he casts that debuff more than once per fight then that's not going to help.
Ok the poison is called Drake Scourge and has melee and spell slow, the disease has to-hit debuff which makes you miss more....
I don't know why the shield would not clear the disease, how are y'all handling the poison?
Also not sure what the magic debuff was, it had 30 stacks, looked like an ice comet icon.
edit ok looks like it was the adds, protector of Phara Dar, who cast the debuffs, so maybe since i didnt kill them they were just constantly reapplying the debuff which is why it wasn't clearing? idk..

I basically abandoned PoE2 and my friend there for this I’m having so much fun with it. Wife’s been teasing me about the old graphics and cheesy skull particle effects from my SK. RNG/SK/BST has become my main, just as tanky as my PAL/DRD/ROG, but kills so much faster. Paladin is great for undead and sustain, but doesn’t bring much if you aren’t smiting. I feel like you can combo Rogue and Beastlord with anything and profit.

You basically want to kill the adds at 60% and 40% and just save your burn for 20% to dead.
The best way to deal with the slow, stuns, etc. is resists of like 370+ and poison resist specifically 520+, since it has a -300 mod on it. If you don't have a way to reliably hit those resist numbers, you have to basically be playing one of the comps that can burn her in 20-30seconds.

Ok. I'm convinced. When I get home from work I'll fire this bad boy up. Right now I'm leaning WAR/SHM/MAG. Any advise would be helpful

It's a blast. Most fun I've had in EQ since the Mischief TLP.
With that comp you'll definitely want to stack spell power. The other advice I'd give is to "stop" leveling around 30-35 and get a solid 300+ AA(more if you can stomach LGuk for that long)by farming LGuk. Unless you can get somebody to flag you for Kunark, then you can do it in Gunthak instead.
But that gives you a solid base so that you can reliably farm one of the "harder" zones in Kunark at 50 for hitting your AA "soft cap" (usually 1000+ depending on your comp's necessary AA). It also puts you in a good spot to easily kill Naggy and Vox for your Kunark flag.

both earrings are CLR and SHM only, sorry druids. I got the poison one for sale on my trader mule!
apparently there is a quest in misty thicket for a bracer with 14 charges of cure poison but I don't think that's viable since it takes multiple casts just to clear the poison once

They have all the AA listed on their Wiki. Some of the descriptions are off (blood pact is actually a lifetap buff, for instance), but it gives you a good sense of roughly what's available. I don't think they plan on adding anything else until maybe PoP or GoD, except minor tweaks here and there for class balance.

Yup, I wish I would have found that AA sooner than I did. Mobs look like they are standing still mezzed because their attacks are so slow. I also picked up the instant cast malo AA. 2nd level reduces cold, magic, fire, and poison by 100. Really helpful on resists.

Best advice I can give is join their Discord and make sure to check the getting started and recommended AA sections since this is wildly different than live etc. WAR/SHM/MAG sounds like a good combo to me, should have your bases covered. Really just about any combo is going to be able to solo well, some will have an easier time bossing than others, but should be able to duo/trio basically anything.

All races get frontal stun immunity. So, instead of everyone rolling Ogre, everything is Iksar instead.

i'm tempted to roll shm/necro/SK in preparation for velious and further expansions where you need a slow and dots have enough time to actually do shit...
but i always find myself going back to "but i'm having too much fun on my sk/ber/rog to stop playing him......just need 200 more AAs...."

Started this a bit ago. Pal/rog/mnk. The long bonus xp had me end up with about 550 aa at 30 before this push to 50. Tried to kill vox and realized I didn't pick up the fearless AA last night. At the point I'm at now, I feel like the rog/mnk makes up for slay undead on live mobs.
Was curious about war/clr/bst and why it's so popular? Is it just due to bloodlust or whatever for the procs?
