Question - SK epic 1.5 vs 2.0 (1 Viewer)

[Wurmdal]

Hello, i was looking at the SK epics and see that the 1.5 "Reaper Strike" gives to your group bonuses while the 2.0 "Lich sting" gives only to you (although better bonuses). So, considering only the clicky, does the 2.0 really better than the 1.5 ?

lich sting is a group v1 spell - it goes on everyone.

yes you want 2.0 for suuuure

Ok thank you. Not that i wanted to skip the 2.0, i 'm actually having fun doing all my epics =)

yeah, there are only a handful of Epic 1.5/2.0 that are still useful, and the SK is still on that list. It's really a must have for the SK. And yes, the click is better on the 2.0

Does having all the 2.0 epics (in my case Berz, Shm, SK, and bard) make a real difference for your group or is it again a thing of some "inches" more ? (not sure if my sentence is good english)

zerk (if you don't know if you need it or not, you need it)
shm 100%
shd 100%

To revive this really old thread.

So I have epics 1.5 on SK and SHM,

rest of group is, BER, BRD, CLR, BST. All are about level 82 TBM armour with level 75 augs in most slots

Is it possible with this group to do the 2.0 epics? Is it still just the BER and BRD that I should get epics for too? and would it make sense to get the 2.0s first, or get all my 1.5s?

Thanks as always

You can probably do the whole thing with that group at your level. I usually wait until around 90 or so because I normally PL my groups and that's the point that they start grouping with the higher level toons. In most cases, the toons solo their epics around that level.

Definitely get bard, and probably should get CLR and BER.

It doesn't really matter if you get all the 1.5s first or focus on 2.0s for the SK and SHM. Just go with whatever seems easiest for you to manage. Some routes from 1.5 to 2.0 are short and easy, and some are as long as the 1.5 quest.

Thankyou, I know there is some cross over of zones, but I tend to focus on one at a time, so will probably look to get the SHM and SK done first then to max their use while I do other bits inbetween If BRD is a def, thats the next though
