Plus the possibility of being stunned... And they also can out swim a max swimming/SoW'd player because of how they path, especially through the Z Axis as you climb the tube to jump the waterfall.

I've seen many people survive it and I've also seen many get 1 rounded or get stunned on the swim and die.

Neck is glorious to not need to deal with this at all.

Okay a necro has Harmshield. Solved.

Wizards can Succor themselves. Solved

Enchanters have runes. Solved?

Mages roll the dice and hope for a 20?

Buy a DA clicky for 250pp and move on?

Pay a druid for succor since a lot of succors can be shelled out before whatever the cost of the neck is valued at. 25k? 45k? GL finding the camp open. Things camped as much as the beads.
Excluding content just to get through a zone. I'll add this zone that has some really good drops seems rather silly. Burn them all with fire.

That's not a problem everywhere. You don't have to settle for waiting in lines; get the express pass...

There are other ways.
You can constantly jump up towards the ceiling while swimming towards the 3 seahorses until you take the dive, reducing the risk of aggro.
You can pull them all towards the right below the neutral walrus, climb up on its ledge as soon as they hit you, invis up and run left before they're back in position.
You can do the same with someone training for you.
You can follow a fellow DA / FD class person training in.
You can get a coth.

Come on guys, it's been 15 years, you know all those mechanics [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I just try to avoid the confrontation. Not worth my time and I've got other things I'd rather do.

I get rez tells in Ice well regularly from the training that goes on in there. It may all be in fun, it may all be in angst but I want to avoid it as much as possible.

The Beads are a nice option for pulling or scouting, The neck is a great item for questing and working on faction. I didn't have either in classic, but did have the beads much much later when golden tickets and the casinos were in EQ live.

I am not saying that these items are useless just they don't have a real use for me.

I'm just fine without people knowing how easy it is to get across SG. DN zone being vacant makes me happy. Too many idiots as is spawning all the traps and training them to the zone.

Wait, some people are ACTUALLY doing just Kael Giants and Claws of Veeshan? For reals? That's got to be insanely hard.

The only real reason for alliance amulet is to werewolf form and alliance and run around in Velks with dubious faction. Makes pulling super easy.

Bumping this thread because I'm finding the poll numbers really interesting. Also the various uses of the alliance amulet is pretty neat.
