What's a counterkite?

My opinion is Fungi Tunic. Manastone I never thought was that useful, but maybe I was doing it wrong.

Take a manastone away from someone and they wonder how they ever played without it....

I always thought it would be neato to use those properly
Earthshaker. Shakerpaging worked better with rampaging (hence the name) but i'd reckon it really is doable if a warrior could get secondary on a bard kite, have the bard zone, and just disc riposte it down [You must be logged in to view images.

Fungus Staff still wins because of its sheer value. It'll buy you multiple examples of pretty much any other item listed here.

I have fond memories of some weapon i used on a warrior back during PoP days.

I used to go to the rockhopper caves in some stupid luclin zone and run to the bottom, and then run all the way up, and then flip on a disc that would riposte every attack? I also had double riposte or whatever. It had an AOE Earthquake on the wep as well.

Basically massively killed everything, and i got a ton of rockhopper hides! It was the cave though that you could do something and the other dudes would spawn. I hated that crap - i just wanted rockhoppers.

I said ignore rarity base judgement on utility for this very reason.

Robe of the Spring, Blood Orchid Katana, Peggy Cloak, Crystal Mask (any unlimited invis clickie).

SoW kat is most definitely my favorite, but my immersion would be ruined without any of the above.

Oh I figured you just meant to ignore things like removed/rare items that have questionable actual effectiveness (guises, etc). My mistake.

It's it's essentially how everything's pulled to the zone in of vp. I suppose it's no secret as both guilds do it the same way, so I'll explain--this probably isn't exact as i'm prepping a dps group, but the theory should remain about the same, and shows the importance of high spell aggro (rune, in this case).

Puller 1 grabs dragon and runs it down, Puller 2 gets secondary (any clicky works here, bracer of the hidden is pretty common) as he's running it down and remains deeper into VP, feigned. Puller 1 takes the shitstorm to near entrance and will drop some major threat into the dragon. Mallets are common, puppet strings for the opulent sort. Then Puller 2 (who's deeper into VP) will start hitting bladestoppers. His threat on the mobs will be higher on everything else, except the main pull, who has been hit with a large aggro clicky, ergo single pull without ever having to drop threat (and lose the FTE).

There's prob some technical details wrong with that again, but basically uses two different tiers of threat to split out the dragon without having to feign, allowing FTE to be swapped. Idols are very useful at the beginning of a pull because they're instant and can be hit during the jav throw if the player is quick to avoid being charmed, allowing you to get distance and for a few other pullers to get secondary aggro to avoid a FTE change. PD is basically 16 hours of monks with a target macro and ranged attack right now--it's absolute hell for those FTE monks, but, such is Everquest <_<

edit: necros can do this similarly with manaskin (rune effect) but it's a bit slower and less reliable. Speaking of shitty busted aggro mechanics, how about we fix aoe heals before we have to really start using them in fucking TOV, eh? EH?!
