    Tip - So you don't think collections are worth it?

    then there are people like me...don't have a house or lot, don't want one. Don't bother turning on trophies ever so don't need that. I do hunters, so don't need more bags. AA are easy to max if you're up to snuff each expansion while doing gearing/hunters. I don't use overseer either for the...

    Discussion - My Lead Group Composition Dissected

    Aye, I really liked running bard/bst/war/dru/mag/pal and I ran it for a long time until I got fed up with druid mana issues. Having 2 res, multiple off tanks and more than sufficient DPS for the group game made it a fairly fun all-rounder type of group. Recently replaced the Dru with an Enc...

    Discussion - Another group makeup question

    Keep in mind there's no real reason to max/min in the group game. When you do you end up sitting around a lot waiting on respawn or timers. I really don't see a reason these days to have more than 2 dps in a group and I keep up with the various rotations no problem. Sure, my burn isn't as...

    Question - BC commands without a carriage return?

    I'm not sure I'm getting the question, but you could always do something like /bca //say abcd and it would work just fine. I use that instead of the mimmic me button all the time when snagging quests and what not.

    Discussion - What angle do you prefer? (In the game Everquest)

    I use first person, unless I'm doing CC, then I'll swap to 3rd and rotate the camera around periodically to catch any potential incoming

    Plugin - MQ2Rez

    if you have the rez stick, make sure you accept 90% rez....if you do not, then the sham is probably casting call until the out of combat timer kick in, so you may want to also accept call. Those settings need to be set on the toon receiving the rez, not the shammy

    Question - Using pet as main tank

    Yep, EoK and beyond, they did not set the flags properly, and pets will not take aggro over a melee from that expansion onward inside of missions. It sucks, but an all caster group is still highly effective...just don't melee anyone in missions. For my caster group, I use enc/bst/3xmag/dru...

    Question - Getting Beat Down 55+

    This is great info. Had no idea LDON scaled that high. Tucking this away into my personal arsenal as lately I have been having a very strong desire to start from scratch on a new server, probably Bristlebane.

    Question - Starting from scratch

    aye, I main a bard and the addiction is real. I sometimes goof off on a ranger or enchanter, but I just can't stop playing the bard as a main. Just something about it speaks to me, although it has lost quite a bit of its magic in the last few years, especially now that we're primarily a DOT...

    IRL - Dru vs Bst for caster group

    Bard can help a great deal with mana issues. If you stack Aura,Pulse,Chorus and crescendo you can pump it over 1k average per tic with rank1 at 125. I think a lot of people are under the misconception that Enc are the king of mana regen..they are not. Beast with paragon may very well outstrip...

    Problem - Main Tank Loses 1.75 Levels - Need to Recover

    yah, I did the grind for all 5 levels just doing t1 hunters when the expansion went live. Didn't take long at all, given I still haven't finished those hunters :P Waiting for that wizard plugin to drop

    Problem - Main Tank Loses 1.75 Levels - Need to Recover

    took me an average of 11 hours per level, using lesson and playing about 3 hours a night to grind out a full level in current expansion. My group DPS at the time was low, averaging 1.7 mil, since I swapped out 3 toons as well. Shouldn't take too long to get back up. I did not use overseer...

    Question - Another group composition question

    I'd probably put in a bst and a mag, but I prefer utility to my crews since the DPS bar isn't all that high these days for success...unless you're raiding the group. It's also really nice having the dispel auto-firing for when you're up against pesky damage shields and under-geared. I know you...

    Question - Starting from scratch

    Depends on if you're doing a full group or not really. For me, on a live server assuming 6 toons, I'd break them up into 2 groups and use tank/cleric/rogue mercs until around level 80 when exp starts slowing down. Then I'd concentrate on gearing the tank/healer and merge the groups once geared...
