Bind sight gets even more fun when you bring in those locate corpse clickies off merchants. Make a corpse somewhere useful to see and then use the click to target corpse which works across the entire zone. Target yourself and cast bind sight and then use your previous target toggle hotkey. Bind sight will land on the corpse. I use this for solo Quillmane when on some toons like ench, wiz, or shaman since no tracking.

Going to laugh if they don't do earthquakes this month. On the one hand I enjoy a good round of watching nerds get super annoyed but on the other hand the server is pretty unbearable without the quakes.

I'm having trouble finding my mojo on this server. I've got a 31 Shaman, a 34 rogue, and a 23 monk and I feel like I spend more time running around looking for groups than I do actually grinding mobs.

Sounds like you may want to try your hand at soloing, which the melees are gonna suck at. Shaman are gods at 60, and I was under the impression they were pretty solid by 31. At that level though, I would definitely go to HHK gobs. There’s a group there literally 24/7, shouldn’t take you long to get in, and it’s the fastest exp in the game from 24-34. On another note, is there some beautiful goon out there who has stopped playing or doesn’t care about making really bad deals who would be interested in selling me their COS for dramatically under market value?

Friend of mine got to 60 and he was not really OP until he got Torpor which is ~100k

With my Wiz I stopped being able to find groups around 35, and was root/nuking painfully slowly. A goon on the discord told me to just buy a bunch of sow pots and start quadding, and I did, and holy poo poo. Back on track, getting almost an entire level each session just about. Each pull is like 6-8% of a level and it takes about as long to recover from as it did just root/nuking. Hit 39 last night, might try doing Great Divide camps as a change of pace from Overthere. Seems like it's just a dead spot for grouping. It does suck going from the relative plenty of reliable grouping locations 25-35, and then suddenly there's only that one level 35+ Mistmoore group (and you're not getting in at prime time). Presumably it gets better when you're able to just chill at City of Mist? I say all this as a porting class who could relocate between SolA, Guk, MM, or Highkeep at a whim. I think I saw a group in Tower of Frozen Shadow once, but it was a guild thing. I spent a bit of time at Splitpaw, but it was mostly soloers.

The whole point of playing a wizard is to cast big nukes. This means having massive aggro, this means playing alone because a group will hate you. While bard swarm kiting was an emergent property of the game mechanics misunderstood by the devs, wizards were 100% supposed to be a solo class.

I've never actually explicitly set out to port for money, I just help people in whatever zone I'm in (and often receive lavish tips). A nice guy gave me some Loam pieces he had laying around when I bought something unrelated from him. Some goons gave me stuff too. 20-34 was rough for the reasons you mentioned. E: I found my warrior really frustrating because he can't really solo, and he isn't exactly in-demand for grouping either. I'm thinking of making an Ogre Shadowknight or a Troll Shaman for "grouping but also retaining the ability to solo." Rogues and Monks look really fun too, but I don't have the cash to outfit one very effectively, and there's a lot of them. frest fucked around with this message at 16:02 on Oct 29, 2018 |

frest posted:For me, it was really just a gear issue. I went from wearing majority newbie cloth armor and quest items, hit my mid 30s and suddenly found myself with enough plat to actually start buying decent gear. Going from 1300 mana to 1800 made it a LOT easier to solo without dying the second you get a string of resists. Oh man, wish you would have posted earlier. You missed out on the easiest levelling in the game for porting classes. The Bread delivery quests are dead easy and silly experience up until 38 or 39. (Unless they've been nerfed since I played last)

I've just blanked it from my memory (and also watched like 3 different series on Netflix at the time). I'd usually get on a list for highkeep or whatever, then do Bread quest until a spot opened up. It was already getting tedious/slow xp at 34, I can't imagine doing it at 39.

(Unless they've been nerfed since I played last) Can confirm making ogers fat on bread is indeed good for grinding XP with minimal paying attention. I'm 32 and planning to probably take it to 34 before I take off on the quadding journey. Hopefully I will have enough plat to keep me in SoW potions and maybe replace some cloth with gear to help with this until I have the full (ish) set of ports.

I made my char on this server as a warrior because it was before my friends left. There are three forms of warrior. First is "boy I wish taunting worked", then "I have some aggro weapons but shadowknights and paladins can cast a lvl 4 spell to attain all the aggro you made times four" , then miniature raid god ie literally nothing can tank better than you with innate class dmg reduction on top of defensive stance. The difference between the last two forms is wiiiiiidde.

Hey goon wizard, do you have your staff of temporal flux? If not I can help with this, it is essential for leveling. My wizzy is 59, and I can't imagine quadding without it. I am looking for the 59 necro pet spell Emissary of Thule if any goons have a copy for sale.

I do, and it is utterly, completely essential. I try to structure my quadding sessions as like, start in WC, bum a clarity, gate to <wherever>, quad for 30 minutes, give someone a port back to WC, repeat. Also Zaepho I still owe you the Lake Rathe component for the Staff, hit me up some time if you're still working on it.

Aggro is one thing, but damage mitigation is the big deal. Mallets, strings, etc etc quickly fix the aggro problem Warriors faced on Live. I don't think its really possible to have a Knight (in era) tank AoW, Tunare, Vyemm, even a slowed Vulak can 1 round ya. https://wiki.project1999.com/Disciplines#Warrior quote:Defensive Discipline lvl 55 Places you in a defensive combat stance that causes you to take less damage [35%], but also lowers your damage output. /disc defensive is what makes a Warrior for raid target tanking.

Still, it seems like a bit of a long-shot to shoot for, especially if you're not already in a guild that's going to assist you getting to that point. Yah, so unless you want to do some awesome poopsocking on starting lines for a raid boss coming into spawn window, then something other than warrior may be better.

Even just getting to level cap as a warrior is a feat onto its own. You are 100% gear dependent, have zero utility for getting around and require a ton of expensive and/or consumable items just for quality of life. I.E. jboots,sow pots/invis pots,clicky bp/paying for ports, recharge cap, etc. The expense alone is more than you can normally earn playing.
