Yeah, I'm still not getting something, but that might be because I haven't done an enchanter epic in a million years, and that one time, it was on live, far beyond the Velious era. If you're pulling Verina or Vessel, I'm assuming you're not doing it alone, and quite probably, it's not even the enchanter doing the pulling. But let's say you are... are we talking some mobs in the way that are immune to pacify? And re: Kszan, I KNOW a 40 guard isn't going to be an issue for an enchanter who can solo a 60, right?

Vessel in particular is often a race on these servers. Extremely contested mob.
So you grab a guard,and because your kos you agro another guard on your way to the tunnel. Now you need to mez and blur it off,holding you up 30s-min and taking mana from a tough fight
You lose the race and continue your sock.

Enchanters can't solo verina,but if they're non kos they can make the fight extra simple.
You rapture her,Tash and slow. Blur it off and pull her to your group at the zone in,walking right past all the non hostile guards

Didn’t want to make a new thread in casters, but what is better dps for charmed pet? Max lev spell haste or torch?

Refuse to do both soloing because it’s not worth the great personal risk of death for a slightly faster kill rate. Also don’t like having to plant pets super far away. One stun interruption and that could be all she wrote

So considering one or the other, which is better dps? I almost think torch still beats spell haste based on just observing how fast other mobs’s health drops

I’ve never once, in the many years I’ve played Enchanters been like “phew I’m glad I went agnostic!”

I honestly wreck almost every faction killing guards anyway so it has never mattered. I don’t think it matters at all, but if you want to play it safe, now is the time to reroll, not later.

Starting with bad faction gives you more scope for character progression though.

Can do crazy things like get non KoS to Bloodsabers on a Karana druid to negotiate a truce. Kinda sad I can't equip her a Poison Wind Censer to summon a Gale of Poison with her combined rain and disease powers!

Is there anything cool you can do as an agnostic enchanter that you can't do as good or evil-aligned? Just curious for some examples beyond quests like stein of mogguk, anything relevant more towards a max level enchanter.

Using Illusions alongside Alliance/Benevolence/Collaboration to become non-KOS in places such as The Overthere, Oggok, Grobb, Neriak, and Paineel. If your deity is Good, it might not work as well. Likewise for choosing an evil deity and waltzing around Felwithe with your High Elf face on...you might get a holy smackdown. I haven't checked. Agnostic definitely grants flexibility.

And since religions weren't fleshed out very well in this era of EQ, I don't really see what's to be gained by picking one. If other players could view your religion, that would be different, but they can't. You could claim your character worships Shakira. How are other players going to know? Just pick Agnostic, then roleplay that you follow a deity. Easy

I just prefer not to be agnostic in an elf simulator, unless there's a compelling reason for it.

Yeah optimal is halfling warrior btw. All toons need to reroll as halfling warrior to be optimal. Tbh even if they already got jboots.

I recently rolled an enchanter for the first time ever and I chose agnostic as per the wiki advice. Up to lvl 32 now and I'm definitely enjoying being able to go to any city by just using the illusion for that race.

I'm also just really enjoying the class overall, it's a ton of fun. Other than pally and ranger it's the only EQ class I've never tried before. Any general tips for somebody new to the class? Things that might not be obvious? I have a good idea generally what enchs do having been in many groups with them on other classes. I've got charm killing down pretty tight now using a gazughi ring. It's so fun to be able to mez\lull\charm and having both invis and invu in the spellbook I can slip around almost anywhere.
