Just started playing again myself, made a seasonal DK and blasted my way through it. I feel like my old berserker couldn't do any where close (in season) to what the DK is doing in season. I've even solo'd all the OA combat tasks. Had a death doing Turo's and another doing the Gyfins. =D. DK just seems really strong, or my memory is shot, or did they make shit easier?
Zerker is fairly top tier. If you hadn't played the DK back when you were playing the Zerker, then coming back to start with a DK, the difference between the two would be pretty significant. The DK, both versions, is just much more fluid in combat vs. a Zerker being a bit janky (imo).

Turo's did get changed to a solo spot from a duo. So they were significantly easier than I remember. This is where I'm at right now.

Clicked my sov awakening to sep on like 7 fails, so that was kind of nice. Khara neck is being stubborn about going Nov though. Been working on rearranging my accessories to try and squeeze out that little bit more AP to get me to the 1365 spots at least (like tungrads) so I dropped 13.8b on a pen basi belt with plans to just explode my tet tungrad belt on a yolo enhance. Ended up hitting the pen tungrad belt. Now I gotta try to resell the pen basi... lesson learned about buying the replacement part before I blow up my current piece.

Am I able to turn a jetina earring into a ring? I don't remember if we were able to do that, or only swap between the narc/tung earrings if you took an earring. Kinda hoping I can swap it to a ring so I can just grab a 2nd tet disto (+1 sheet ap vs the tung) and +2 ap from the pen crescent instead of the tet tung i'm wearing.

Yeah you can swap the Jetina accessory out in the Old Moon UI window. Think its free for a few swaps then it starts costing money.

Gotta grind up some bmc's I guess to remove the cup I put on it when I came back since I assumed i'd stick with the 5 piece tungrad for a while. Got 15 on preorder fills over the course of today so gonna take a while to get 250 without actually grinding them. Then I get to decide if I want to yolo my tung ring or just take the 7bil or so it'd be after taxes.

YOLOing gear never works out over the long-term. Always sell gear you're no longer using, rather than hoping to hit the lotto and make it worth "more". It's 7bil closer to your goals (and at this stage of your progression that saves you about 3-4ish hours of grind time). Or, more likely, you just cost yourself 3-4 hours of extra grinding.

I always thought that chat bans seemed more 'rare' because it is just a gigantic pain in the ass to report someone (or used to be), rather than them not banning people from chat for trivial stuff.

I need Caphras, shit loads of them. I'm currently hitting up Thornwood. Can't really do the Dekhia version of Thornwood yet, gave it a shot and the damage they did scared the shit out of me.

You're gonna be way better off grinding hexe and buying the caphras.

This is the best advice. You get more loot per monster and the monster density is better at Hexe. I’ve been swapping Hexe and Ash Forrest due to the Debo drops. Ash can dead you quick if they knock you down, make sure your crystal set up is build for Ash

Otherwise Hexe give great trash and is fairly chill once you know the mechanic Much better than Thronwood

And do your weekly rifts without fail. I got 2Bill tonight which is plain nutty for thr effort

Trying Hexe now, I'm on track to make around 17k trash loot without Agris, which I'm assuming is complete ass and I should uninstall.

You want to be pulling 20k+ at Hexe, usually closer to 22k+, depending on class. Classes with smaller AOEs don't do as well there. Also assuming you're at the AP cap for the spot.

If you are at the AP cap for Hexe, it isn't too much further for Dehkia Thornwood, which gives pretty good Caphras drops and is slightly better silver/h than Hexe.
