I know a lot of people in IBOB (and am friends with a few), group with them regularly and most of them don't care and are very friendly. As with every group, there are idiots and annoying people but. in average, I would say that they are a nice bunch. As for the Test server, in general, has no...

In case you don't know, all pbaoe spells (apart from a few they missed) no have a limit of 30 targets, which really sucks if you are PLing with a SK and damage shield. My normal routine (I am on test) was to use PBAOE (Oil of Fennin Ro if needed): - Testbuff to 25 - Sporalis in Blightfire -...

You will need way more aas to be effective. As other people mention, you should focus on the focus (pun intended) aas for the spells you use - you have lots of useless lines, etc. Also, the EM earring is critical for tanking and swarm dps. This does not only apply to mages but it is made way...

Yeah, that's what I said above - they are a waste of exp before 110-111 and, if you can save them for later, even better.

Confirmed, minimum is 110.

I used to hate tanking. I tried and really, really did not like it. Then I started playing a SK so I could do things by myself when there was no group available (boxing other chars). Now, I have 3 SKs, 2 paladins,2 warriors and I enjoy each one of them. SK is the easy option. War is the hard...

Yeah, that works out - 2 levels per -> 4 missions + paragon = 10 levels. No longer 100-110 in 2 missions, like it used to be.

If you are levelling a bard, use him. Get him the epic, aria and warmarch (at 100 it will be a piece of cake) and set up ka - the group dps will massively increase even with a 100 bard.

Warning for anybody reading this - they nerfed max experience and missions will only give you 2 levels max, even at 100, so wait until 110 to do them. Grinding in Frontier Mountains with 120s will be the fastest way to 108, then, depending on your group (and patience to get there), you can do...

I have both mem'd and normally use the aoe one. Only time I have used the single target one is during the Shei Vinitras missions, where I actually drive the bard for cures/mezzes and sometimes aoe mezz is still down.

Enc to bard, no discussion. Bard aura affects swarm pets, epic + fierce eye are up 2 every 3 minutes (massive boost) and overhaste and melee songs will make your sk better. The paladin and shaman will also like the healing boost of reckless. If I am not wrong, what you will lose is some burn...

Collections also give 2% of a level each. More during bonus exp. And the corresponding merc aas (I use them but you may not need them). That adds up really, really quickly, particularly if you cannot do missions or other progression, like when you are using personas. There was a bug that gave...

Very good point! I think that the mission minimum is 110 - there definitely is a minimum as I could not invite a 100 friend.

I am only boxing 4 with mercs, so it looks like I am going to spend a LONG time in Shei. Thanks Innoruuk for automation!

Thanks. Indeed, I was looking for repop missions but it looks like they are now quite rare :(
