Is it better to use that mage fighting stance?
Can't say for certain as I've never had it, but for this fight evasive was better than defensive. Defensive was my go-to for hard fights 99% of the time too.

The key for this is that the attack missing stops the big damage from the proc... So you essentially take 0 damage

He skims around them promising that you'll be able earn a couple more loadouts and that still isn't in the game.

Yeah you can use overchannel stance with slow to get a -150 resist mod on it. Useful for hard to land dots as well.

If you have FD alot of people would pre-debuff, FD if resist, and then attack, but I haven't really needed to do it that way.

The game isn’t that hard

On this particular fight, no. EoV main damage is a -400dd that works as a proc. For procs to land, you need to actually be physically struck first. Evasive stance is a 95% chance to avoid melee damage. Not being hit means you aren't getting slapped with the -400dd unresistable proc, which trivializes the encounter.

As mentioned, use Overchannel for -150 resists to get Slow to land. My Ench opens with Tash and then Shiftless Deeds 8 (additional -120MR check).

Then players complained they wanted more stronger mobs in open zones, and devs gave them skyfire mountains, probably one of the least useful and enjoyable zones ever.

Also they gave druids a complete dogshit pet, while druids expected a pet at least on par with shamans.

Devs trolled players pretty hard at times.
I loved skyfire. But yes, entirely a solo spell farming zone…but still, a cool zone. It was like a baby whateverthedragon zone was after sirens grotto.

Some roaming 12 man dragons probably woiod
Have been chefs kiss.


luclin definitely had some dead ass zones. That one incomplete 30-40 zone that was suppose to be a reference to some grey/temple alternative and was largely just an empty
Square.

Any updates on the new zone? Not being picky but they need to get some content flowing. I hope they plan on getting Kunark out either November or December at the latest. I think they'll be in a lot better shape once they get a couple of expansions out there. Classic content gets consumed pretty quickly and it feels the same. LGuk/SolB ... Naggy/Vox ... PoF/PoH.... I love it all and really enjoy playing through it but Kunark alone adds quite a bit for people to do especially when considering different classes and combos.

I'm about to have my second trio leveled up to 50 but I'm not going to do another one until more content gets released.

I am playing Triune for now. If they don't have Rujarkian Hills out before 9/27 I am unsubbing until Kunark. The 35-50 grind just has too few zones to keep doing it over and over.

Yeah, I used the bonus xp to get one class from 40 to 46. Sol B, Kedge, or the Hole are all fine the first couple times, but I don't want to do anything in this game that feels like a grind. I'm adding Necro to my Paladin/Bard mix for my next combo and I have a feeling already it's going to be one of my favorites. Something about loading a mob up with DoTs and healing myself with lifetaps just feels good. Considering dropping the Bard for my Beastlord at 50 for the better slow and pet if I'm at the haste cap without bard songs, but while I'm leveling I'll stick with the Bard for AoE purposes.

Ya I'm really liking my War/Nec/Cleric. Once I get it to 50 thinking about swapping the cleric for the enchanter. I hardly ever need any cleric heals but haven't tried any raids yet with it. I think it should be fine if I get my necro taps ranked up to 6 or 7. Already have all the spell crit AAs and a lot of survivability AAs.

Hopefully this works for Hate/Fear. And LOL at Sky bosses never being flagged rare. Insult to injury on that place.

I'm currently running my PAL/BRD/NEC through Unrest...about to hit 19, so I'm gonna quit for the night and run a non-respawning instance tomorrow to see what I get from clearing everything there.

Probably will be done with classic this or next week and then gone for 2 months. Should add up nicely for some new content on my return.
It is fun for what it is, especially for someone like me, who only plays like 8 hours a week and doesn't care about the speed of progress (except PoSky wasting my time).

If I am reading that above post correctly changing sky to be tagged as all rare mobs means dungeon crawls in sky will likely be fucking bonkers?

We'll see on Sky. I'm done so it's unlikely I ever go back unless motes drop like candy.

I view the "rare" and named tags as a double edged sword in Sky though. If you just cherry pick the quest drops you may not kill enough to trigger the end loot. If, for example, you need to kill both small bees (and their splits), a majority of pegasuses, and the otherwise non-agro isle 3 and 7 trash the rewards would have to be significantly better.

Maybe a double shot at quest drops plus a few motes will entice people still working on all the classes but if you're just cherry picking sister and EoV, clearing everything else would be much slower than just speed running the bosses you need even without charge refunds.
