BoP stuff might be Monster sets from HM dungeons and similar, but vast majority of overland drops is BoE.

Deconstruction Circlejerk used to be the fastest method - join that goon crafting guild, dump your stuff in and take somebody else's for maximum gains. Probably still is, but I can't say if it operates on NA.

Unless it has changed, first you need a guild with a trader. Then you hit the nearest banker, go to said guild store and list it there. Then you hope someone picks it up.

Screw around Craglorn and dailies, finally get Vaults of Madness pop. Of course I get kicked to login and a minute later from group, and this late it's no use to try again :argh: At least I got that CP160 and about two thirds done with mats for one dagger.

^^ Guilds are account-wide, hence account name. Maybe character works, but odds are every new alt has to be invited separately then.

Thieves' Guild is so neat but that RNG never gives me Countess' order on timely order. Maybe-spoilery DB question: How involved are Morag Tong, because apparently Naryu and Raz make appearances. If they are, can I help those sanctioned killers in any capacity?

I personally recommend investing in at least one armor and weapon crafting skill, depending on your build. If you can't be bothered to hunt down a crafter for one of the more advanced sets like Night Mother's Gaze, it's oh so convenient to craft it yourself.

Dagoth Ur isn't active in any way at least, so probably sleeping about becoming new Godhead. But that does give me a possible nature of the Trial; enter his dreamscape to keep him that way, and bosses are monstrosities he dreams up.

I don't think I quite understand what to do with these Undaunted keys. I know I should save them for 160cp but do they really only drop shoulder pieces? Aren't those available as usual during the dungeons? Even so, what's the point in using more than 1 key then?

Undaunted chests only drop shoulder pieces, all types and traits. Veteran dungeons have a chance of relevant monster head, hard mode is guaranteed. As to the point of using multiple keys, it's a gamble if you want exactly Valkyn Skoria in light and divines and instead get Tremorscale at heavy and training.

Performance at Alcaire has two insanely frustrating factors: only one player may use the kit at a time, and it has internal cooldown. If you can use it, someone else will hit it one second earlier :sassargh:

You probably know this already, but 5/1/1 is for Undaunted Mettle which is fairly up there in skill line. Until you open up that, it may be better to go 5/2 or 7/7 depending on armor passives.

It's 6 hours and doubles for each new trait without any passives. I personally feel account-wide crafting would be overpowered, but make it FASTER research for alts - maybe not half off but third or something at most. It still shaves off over a week on Nirnhoned or whatever your last trait happens to be.

I do it to get rid of loot and having somewhat independent alt for their own gear. Hence I have more or less ignored blacksmithing on sorcerer and focused on alchemy/woodworking/clothier.

Incidentally, how do you work around the part where they jump straight to endgame levels with crafting writs?

Aramek posted:

It depends on what you mean by that. The way the game does scaling right now is that if you are a max level character but you only have one rank in blacksmithing you still will only get level 1 blacksmithing writs, but, physically out in the world, you will find 50% iron and 50% rubedite.

Indeed, but when I presumably have up to Ebonthread in terms of crafting skill my nodes will be ebon/ancestor silk and any writs ask for the former. Just hope bank has enough stacks to carry though to next and if not, hunt down nodes?

If it's quest reward, it's unique set piece but you can usually farm dungeon and world bosses for "generic" ones. Anything crafted is tagged so, and given enough traits/possibly quests to open the area anyone can create those.

Actually holding onto them depends on your build and degree of minmaxing.

That set is basically damage mitigation and tanking, but Bloodspawn meta of resources has been a thing since forever. Are those tatters right now or concerning the regen/reduction CP changes?
