Advice for lowbie Druid on gear/grouping
Hello all,
I'm a lvl 18 Druid. I've been leveling slowly but surely, mostly soloing, occasionally getting a group. The problem I've found is that for a non-twink, its kinda hard to heal decently, lol. I don't remember such an emphasis being put on Druids to heal when I originally played in 2001. It appears that its almost automatic that Druids and Shamans are to heal and many believe they are viable replacements for Clerics. It reminds me of live currently actually, where shamans, druids, and clerics are the healers and have been balanced to be so. However, it doesn't work that way on P1999. At least at these low levels. Anyway, does anyone have any recommendations on cheap gear that'll help? I'm talking under 200pp. Or perhaps a recommendation on places at this level where healing isn't as critical and needed constantly. Such as an area with long pulls, so you have more time to med. |
Healers are almost always in short supply, unfortunately. I always figured a group could either have 1 cleric or a shaman & a druid to get roughly the same amount of healing.
Unfortunately gear really won't help you heal better. You can boost your maximum mana which will allow you to heal longer initially, but unless you're constantly experiencing periods of time where your group is doing nothing so you can med to full, having a larger mana pool doesn't do you much good. Still, you can pick up some decent low power jewelery for under 200pp. 2ac 15hp/mana bracelets run about 40p a pair and then a pair of +2 wis rings for fairly cheap. (I wanna say 10-15p). Those'll give you a little more initial boost. It'll get a bit better at 19 when you get 'healing'. Your other alternative, as a druid, is to skip the group and just solo. |
