4 buff Seru is hard because he will have a 65% haste buff and becomes unslowable. 95% of people do 3 buff Seru for that fact alone.


Todays patch did the following:
- Fixed some Acrylia loot to have hStats at Legendary.
- Changed PoP key / Event items to be no drop. (No buying items such as the Ssra Emp room key for PoP progression)
- Alternative expansion items are now All/All so that anyone can level them to Legendary for turn ins.
- Zone states are now preserved upon shut down. (No more named/drop fishing by leaving an instance for 10 minutes and letting it shutdown then zoning back into a fresh instance.)
- Some bug fixes and adjustments. Big ones are the max attack bug and spells like Lich will no longer break sneak/hide.
- Players can now only be summoned by mobs once every 10 seconds.
- Shaman Torpor line is moved to short duration buff box. It no longer has a snare/slow component but now has an actual duration instead of being a permanent buff.
- Adjusted pet agro transfer rules. (Will need to be tested to see how that has actually changed.)
- Fixed NRo crashing and other minor things.

- Valentine event rewards were handed out.

Second patch fixed some bugs the first patch caused. (There were no stat caps for awhile among other things.)

Announced that Legendary augments will become attunable when PoP releases. This is largely due to people using one Legendary Aug and swapping it between characters for encounters. (Pet users were specifically bad as they could swap pet gear between characters)

Sumbitch, I missed that note. That may be the worst change they have done so far. Glad class epics become mostly worthless in PoP and I have all the ones I want already, I guess.

Anybody have the gear list for the MAG/BST/BRD pet cuck variant? I figure I might as well farm up a petcuck build for PoP, but I fucking hate Necromancers and still want some sort of "skip", even if it's not as useful in PoP. Bard seems like the best fit.

Yeah the bard cuck is pretty good. Farmed up like 1500AA on him, took him into Sleepers and whooped ass the first time. Didnt even know how to play the dude. Its great with fading memories because 1) it let me skip through the entire dungeon to sleeper 2)when the adds spawned and sleeper was dead, they overwhelmed the pets (pets were not BIS yet) so I ran away hid behind a pillar faded them a few times, re-summoned my shit, rebuffed the pets, then went in and slaughtered the adds and picked up my loot.

I now switched my MNK/ROG/SHM to have mage instead of SHM so he can farm up some AA when AFK. If I remember correctly it took like a week? maybe week and a half? to farm up 1500 or so AA, but I did clear the place a few times too.

This is what I have on my lv 50? earth pet (52 with gloves) and hes deleting shit in DN.

Not as fast as both BST and MAG pets together, of course, but still not even dropping health with the vendor bought heal augs in weapon. Im wondering if its even worth to level him up to 57 so he gets the new earth pet?

This is the way to level alts. Sure you have to spend some RL cash to get your class back (Or just roll MAG in the first place and then free switch later). Once you experience the free AA while sleeping or at work or whatever, you will never go back to pulling and deleting mobs manually, lol.

Oh yeah, if you keep your summon gloves green or ench, you can send them between characters to summon your shit +2 levels. So you dont have to buy extra pair of that shit.

Last weekend I finally finished powerleveling a MNK/BST/Wiz and RNG/ROG/Wiz up to 1000+ AA (massively contributing to burnout). I cleared VT once with the bloodllust focused MNK/BST/Wiz and bosses died the fastest I have seen so far. Unfortunately, on both toons, I can't figure out how to stay alive very well on anything that hits hard, as the hard casted heals suck. The Bloodlust build stays full HP durring bloodlust, but outside of it, it's a chore.

Black dire in Mistmoore is a hilariously busted dire charm pet. I'm running around at 27 in Mistmoore and he can literally tank the entire zone for like a minute+ an barely get hurt. And because of how pet taunt works I can just AE it all down on my wiz even though I have no heals (wiz brd ench).

Yeah, Im aware of that. Im just not a big seller of stuff. In fact I dont even have a trading mule yet (why im leveling the alt account) Im too much of a hoarder and I love my alts and twinking them out. I mean, I sold some stuff of course person to person, like epics and other shit that was hot coming out of VT the beginning weeks, but aside that I just keep it all, vendor all the trash, which lets face it, 99% of the shit aside the BIS lists is trash.

I don't have all the BiS lists, but I was making decent coin on VT/sleeper (no augs) items (most were not on a BiS list I have), as late as a week and a half ago. Unfortunately I have no real way to track what items sold for what and when.

The main thing is that setting up a trader is time consuming for a whole clear, so it may actually be faster to just grind out 10k an hour, mass pulling the whole of Umbral Plains (setting up a loot macro and a sell macro helps greatly).

Is it worth getting into this now or did I miss the boat?

Also where did you guys get EQ Titanium editions?
They have their own client/launcher now. Check the Discord.

Definitely worth hopping in. You have 2 weeks until PoP drops, so there is plenty of cheap shit you can buy now that people are trying to fire sell before a gear "reset".

Yeah plenty of people just starting now, I hear a whole bunch of people in /ooc asking about unlocks, killing vox and naggy, how to get to velious and all that other noob crap. Plus PoP is gonna be 16 weeks, so plenty of time to catch up, roll a few alts, whatever...Plus right now until PoP release there is a 50% EXP bonus which is nice when getting AA.

Are you fucking serious? I thought they said 8 weeks for PoP? Did they extend it because they have to work on a shitload of GoD content?

I was "ugh"ing a little at 8 weeks of PoP, but 16 weeks? JFC.

Maybe its 8 i thought I heard 16 in one of the streams, but could be wrong. Probably am. 2 months sounds more reasonable.

GoD was really decent after they "fixed" it and OoW is pretty awesome, yeah. Everything until TSS is pretty shitty though, but EMU only apparently has content up to DoN anyways.
