Petcuck is so broken. Newest alt is petcuck, has full AAs and pretty good gear. Mage pet with cleric epic + lego gharns, beast pet with lego palladius, necro pet with lego blackstar + rogue epic. Went to sleeper for the first time, had to heal the pet twice the whole fight and it was at most 2 minutes. Did BB too, had to do a lot more healing but still had time to keep dots up, pet was never in threat of dying.

Have all the fotm now, war/bst/clr, sk/rog/shm, petcuck, making a clr/mnk/zerk next have all the items just need to grind AAs and level everything to legendary.
which petcuck version? Enc or nec? I've got an enc version sitting around, barely equipped, been thinking of taking it out of retirement and switching it to a nec.

I did necro cause I wanted feign for trash skip. Enc might be better for actual boss killing, I read or heard their animation pets are beefed up to be the same level as nec/bst pets and then all their other stuff on top of that.

Is there anything special that needs to be done to FD with pets? I figured they would keep agro and die.

Just keep them on hold until you get to where you want to fd. Or if you're already fighting something and want to fd, back them off and toggle taunt off.

Is there anyone in bazaar that sells poisons? If not what do I search for? Whats the good ones?
The vendor bought ones are inferior, but you can buy some from a Barb NPC near the rogue GM in Baz. You can make your own with vendor bought mats, sold from the two asslings frost dwarfs near the rogue GM. "Anger of the Shissar" is the line that does the most damage when paired with Envenomed Blades. You can also buy the crafted ones off the Baz (alt-a is default hotkey). Some dragons are immune to poison, so some people switch to fire "poison," which is Pyrilen Burn X.

Here is the lowest level Anger of the Shissar recipe, it goes up to 10 currently. Use the highest level you can.

well I did like 2k AA on the war/wiz/bard and then swapped from bard to BST, gotta go around and collect spells and shit then lvl up to 60, be interesting how effective this is at boss killing. if it isn't then i'll just eat the cost and swap wiz to clr for the proc build

all quest items including epics are legendary by default so you're asking for someone to mail you a 30k pp item. I'm too poor due to my large stable of alts.

Now if unattuners (items to unbind items) was cheaper then I could help you out since I have alts with SK epics that I don't play anymore but unfortunately they are also like 25k pp for the unattuner
You can get unattuners for 10 Echos off the donation merchant so it is really only 11k to unattune an item at the moment. However, your point still stands.

You could score a Shaman epic for less than 10k. I spent 5k buying the Iksar Scale off the bazaar and turned it in with max rep to get my Shaman epic. Skipped the entire quest that way.
I haven't been on in over a week but you could also just snag a Primal weapon that procs Avatar. Those are pretty decent and not crazy expensive.

Shaman epic is just 2 mobs. Get truespirit to max via a bag full of gems then kill miniboss in Fear for the blood then the guy in City of Mist.

Rogue is even more retarded. Kill Renux in Qeynos, loot the parchment and the dagger. Turn in parchment to Stanos, go kill General who also drops the 2nd dagger. Turn it all in to Stanos.
 
Anyone got advice for a new Mon/ber/clr on when to start aas and what gear I could shoot for. Played eq during classic thru oow but never played these 3 classes and no idea the synergies in this game. Got to 30 and was going to start up lguk.

For AAs youll find most ppl telling you to stop at 30 in lguk and farm hundreds of AAs but this is retarded advice for most situations.

here is the truth:
1. Your AA exp is penalized before level 50
2. Higher level mobs provide more AA exp per kill
3. AA exp is based on con (red yellow white etc)
4. Your max AA exp per kill is capped based on your level, the higher level you are the higher max exp you can gain per kill.
5. Veterancy AA Exp bonus (first 150 AA, then scaling bonus based on total number of AAs your other characters have) removes this cap

Lvl 30 in lguk was only the best back in classic due to a combination of the above factors combined with density of low hp mobs and most builds (at that time) including slay undead.

As long as you can kill efficiently (dps and survivability) the best place to AA is lvl 56 in dragon necropolis. There is no reason to stop and AA before 56 unless you need some aa to increase dps or survivability in order to level more efficiently to get to DN. no other zone offers a higher density of low hp mobs combined with the best ZEM modifier in the game.

If you don't have paladin in teh build recommend doing Dulak harbor instead (can get someone to blast you into kunark/velious flag i'm sure). Can get a ton of $ there to help gear up while you grind out AA's.

AA exp is teeeechnically penalized until level 60, when you get the bonus. It just reduces the closer you are to 60. Problem is, the bonus on mob con outweighs the level 60 bonus, so 56 is the best level to "park". If we had consistent red or yellows with good density at 60, that'd be the better spot.

Agreed. Stopping at 30 to aa in lguk is old advice from before Velious went live. Get to 56 asap, buy almost free old raid gear, and then go AA in DN. Mobs are 60 but have almost no hp. So much faster than anything else you can do

Now do monk, I'm to lazy to look it up!

I think the big skips are only those two, SK you can skip the level 30 armor pre-quest part. The rest all need to be done as intended with the caveat that everything can be sold but quest pieces will generally be priced according to how much of a pain it is to farm.

Monk is quite easy as the demon fangs fights are all spawnable, the metal pipes are common and cheap to buy. Only thing you need is the robe which shouldn't be too bad of a camp if you can kill the monks.



I snagged a robe real quick what's your character name?
