Which Velious Faction combo did you choose?

CoV + Coldain. I doubt I'll do much in the way of armor questing, I just don't want to be kos to Wuoshi or the mobs near the CS ring. Coldain faction just kind of comes with the territory.

anyone who has sneak will want at least dubious CoV faction

I assume because, when you sneak from behind, you can become indifferent to an NPC, and dubious means you will not get attacked when they or a friend turn around.

In Crystal Caverns, for instance, everyone starts Dubious to the dwarves. If you sneak from behind, you can shop with them. Otherwise they will insult you and refuse.

The range sucks on this although it's a fun toy to have. You'll probably body aggro before you get a chance to throw.

Only faction I care about is Siren's Grotto.

Alliance Neck + 0 kills in SG = Dubious to entire zone and you can walk around freely.

I will continue to lol at requests for Succors across the zone and just run through saving 6-7 minutes of med time. Totally worth it.

Sad thing is if you're high enough in levels, you shouldn't need succor.

SoW before zoning in, and have inviz ready to deal with the ulthorks (SP?).

Then begin the mad dash/swim up the water column.

After you're out of the water, take five seconds and then make the mad dash to WW.

If you're under level 50, then yes it is probably best to succor across. More importantly being under level 50 is going to have health risks past Sirens anyway.

In Conclusion, the necklace is a neat toy but beyond that, killem all and let their deities sort it out. Veeshan especially, her brood's fun to kill.

Melt Steel beams jet fuel does not? WTF it's not even 9/11...

There are 3 sea horses in that gauntlet, if they aggro on the server tick you could be facing 6-12 rounds of 240~ each. Enough to kill basically any caster class. 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.
