Makes having a chanter more valuable.
Chanter is a godsend. Mez and charm makes a huge impact on gameplay. AoE everything in proximity and then charm the highest level mob possible. I’m not sure if I want to swap over to shaman from enchanter once i get good gear but I’m told once you have the gear you can tank anything. Also it seems that the combo of Enc/shm/nec is the highest dps build but that with BIS gear. After the servers came back up today I farmed a FBSS and two adamant -10 magic res rings in Lguk for my pet gear. The rings helps out with charm not breaking that often and the fbss for haste.

Monk/Paladin/Shaman and I definitely get wrecked by Sky. Just hit 50 with only 98 AA, so maybe that's a big factor? Just run out of mana far too quickly to sustain against Island 3-7

Be surprised if you even need the rings between ranking up charm and the -150mr or whatever it is stance.

I'm pretty sure their code is a pile of shit that has been building up for 26 years, and is barely stable as it is. Look how long it takes us to zone...LOL. No different than with spinning old IDE hard drives.

Whatever backend they have running it all is bound to be ancient and patched together as it is...and the crew they have on this are probably 3 weeks out of HTML school. 2 charges of personal instances seems reasonable, otherwise there would be 4572087034 of them, and their Pentium 166 would crash.

Weird THJ had it working flawlessly and quickly.

Dirge is crazy. Once I had enough gear/AAs to survive some nukes (HP, avoidance, MR, CR, FR) and enough mana to cast it 4 or 5 times I can now AE pull D4 PoF. A clear takes 90m-2hr solo netting 5 or so AAs at 50 and motes/loot.

Still seems like leveling a new character with twink gear might be faster for AAs? How is that look for comparison?

It’s much faster to reset to a new trio at 10 and you get to try new areas and class combos

Cannibalization AA is key to the build. Use it when your mana first hits about 60% from full then always on cooldown. Sync it with LoH to make managing the cooldowns easier. (i.e. stop healing to reach about 40% life when Canni is up, swap to Mage Hunter then hit Canni + LoH immediately after) I can do the Isle 6 boss on D0 without needing to stop to regen mid spawn chain and this was before I got Sky weapons and I have less AAs than you.

When exping loh+canni keeps me up in mana so much I only need to rest for endurance. Don't think of them as emergency tools, use them on cooldown

Did you try maxing out Canni and when you do it go into mage hunter stance to take less damage?
This guide has good information about that combo and what to invest in AA wise. Hope it helps out.

Also evasive stance is super good. I can kill Eye and Hand well before it runs out. Sometimes they don't even hit me once. Also rank up Togor's to level 5 at the bare minimum, ideally 7

I’ve been trying that. Maybe I’m waiting too long to Canni and LOH. Innorok and Cazic are easy up to D2 but in Sky I can’t get past Gorgolosk plus the add running D0.

Yes sir, doing that dance. I’ll try it much earlier in the fight though.
