decided to do the sky autism collection.. day 5, 2 quests left

both missing the same thing: sphinx claw

i have killed sister on every run. i’ve done enough runs to get every single other item. that’s 93 quests. i’m spending every instance charge, checking every difficulty. it must be over 150 sisters now… there was an achievement two days ago for killing 100 djinni

and i need not one, but two sphinx claws

captains log summary: i’d like to go home now

There is a simple solution to that. In the Gorgolisk island, ask Gorgolisk about strange things. They will have a helpful response that will get you home from sky ;)

I hit 46 yesterday as pal/mnk/enc, 80 AA

I played around in Hate for literally 40 minutes or something before hanging it up for the night. Charmed a few things and was killing rapidly enough, think I got up to 50 percent of 47.

I’m still using literally almost all najena / befallen gear, which as mentioned is mostly fine, it doesn’t matter.

That said I’m also using weapons from najena, the knight 1 hand sword that’s 22/40 and the 9/18 in secondary.

Should / could I beeline some massive weapon increase before doing anything else? Or is it like fuck it charm does all the damage anyway.

You should do whatever is fun for you as the content gets trivial fast even at d4.

All the raids on d0-2 are pretty easily done pre 50 especially with your OP combo. A little time in the planes to get set pieces and L50 will get you into doing d3-d4.

With proper mote usage and farm you can get juiced quickly (see my char for example which is all +5/6 or higher at this point) and I've not even stepped foot into posky because I don't want to be trapped farming there when AA's and motes are more important to me currently.

Gotcha, that makes total sense.

I’ve been playing pretty casually and it looks like you get crazy OP really fast anyway, so I’ll just do whatever as it comes.

you could probably do D4 already with that combo, charm is so comically broken in Hate/Sky, just make sure you upgrade allure a few levels. At the very least D2+

You can start farming sky for the sweet ass sky weapons while grinding to 50. Charm OP up there if you have FD in your kit to break pets and lose aggro.

The chanter charm move in Sky is, open with Tash, then use Overchannel Invocation to cast Allure. In your pet equipment, keep a couple -10MR Adamantite bands equipped. (each tick checks the MR on pet for the roll for the charm break). With all of that combined, your charm pets MR is absolutely floored and you typically can get 15+ min charms consistently. There is some rng and you can break after a minute back to back, but its pretty damn rare.

For Sky specifically, (assuming you have all keys farmed) you invis up on Island 1, run all the way up to Bee island, charm 1 of the murder bees, mez the other 2, move away, cast memblur. Use QuickBuff AA to buff up your pet. Remember you can also cast Boon of the Garu (werewolf) on it too.

Now run through the islands with a murder bee swinging double / triple 350s and hasted with SLTW.

Set up an audio trigger for charm break. When you hear it, immediately swap to Evasive Stance. Cast AE Mez if you have mobs in camp, re-tash your pet, use Overchannel Invoc, and re-cast Allure. You're back up and running pretty quickly.

I expect some kind of charm nerf or Bee nerf. It's pretty comical how quickly you can just blast through the whole zone.

Sweet, thanks everyone!

Guess I’ll play with charm and this ASAP. 😜

Yeah I’ve pretty much been using charm nonstop since level 32 or so.

Anyone beaten bee island without the charm strat?
Yea it's not hard on war/rng/shm. Try to lull the little ones to single the boss. If that doesn't work I usually pull to a good spot and fight boss down as many layers as I can till I die, the just come back and finish as he'll stay there and other bees won't unless you kill the original one. Honestly at this point in D0 at least I can just tank a bee add and kill boss though

Shit, never considered dying then coming back to finish. I got the last one to 18% before I ran out of juice. I'll give that a shot, thx.

Impossible this is just lies made up to make the game look bad. You'll be hearing from our lawyers about this disgusting defamation.

I cheese it with feign death, but i think you can just kill a small bee and jump off and it resets the split mobs apparently?

invis to the back of the island and pulling the 2 will help a lot though, i'm 45 on my war/clr/ench so i'll just abuse the bee charm anyway doing that lol

He said the line!

Nah i love watching people complain about the obviously broken shit that people defended.
Nah man, whining doesnt validate your bs. You posted like a full size ai generated gotcha thinking you won an argument about p2w because the game had a design you can EASILY get through for free (anyone can make a rogue and sneak, at any time) but you COULD pay to diety change and skip game mechanics. F2p lose nothing by not paying, not even much time (less than 5 minutes). But you run victory laps. Now its mocking the game because someone did, what, 93 fucking quests but not the 94th? That's fucking normal. Rng is r. And I dont mind his gripe AT ALL he's just venting, a natural thing people enjoying the game still do sometimes.
