Look, I have some controversial opinions and I'll happily argue with people here about them (eg. Scout and all "sit on your ass and wait for loot to be handed to you" rolls are unclassic and the server would be better off if you had to make friends to do them, like the original devs wanted).

But at least I listen to people and respond to what they say like a human. The whole reason I'm "calling DSM out" isn't about some personal spat with him: I'm trying to get everyone to realize that talking to him just produces threads like this, and we'd all be better off not taking the bait from him.
Remember that Loramin attacked me first out of the blue and started this whole thing. Yet he blames me for it. More delusional ranting.

If you don't attack people, they won't post in defense. You need to take responsibility for your actions.

I am sorry your debate strategy revolves around attacking people instead of using facts and logic. You created this mess, and you can stop at any time.

If we could stay on topic, DSM I'm really curious what leveling zones you'd recommend to this player given how much you dislike it when we suggest LoIO.

Yet another misrepresentation of what I've said. You do that often as well. I never said I dislike people suggesting LoIO. I've said repeatedly that you can level in LoIO in this thread. I am just pointing out that Goblin Ring is rarer than people are suggesting, and plat farming is more consistent. I am not sure why people think this is problematic.

I already rebutted this point earlier. Loramin probably didn't read it:

All nuance is lost on Loramin. He probably didn't read the second part of the second sentence, as he misreads or skips what I post often:

You can also see he is embarassed that he was called out for starting this back and forth:

https://www.project1999.com/forums/s...&postcount=273

He ignored me pointing out that fact. He blames me for his random attack on me first. The guy just can't take responsibility for his actions.

What nuance? You literally wrote "I never said I dislike people suggesting LoIO."

You also, repeatedly, throughout this thread, expressed that you think it's a bad idea for a new druid to farm the ring ... in LOIO.

Qualifying that with "unless they have some fetish with not buying gear" (ie. "unless they prefer farming their own items over efficiency") doesn't change your advice at all; it just adds a meaningless qualifier.

For reference, here's my suggested leveling guide for a charming druid:
* Blackburrow into WK bandits or Crushbone into Nybright Sisters
* EK 18-28, detour to LoIO if you want a chance to get your own goblin ring
* CT 28-38 gator pit and gator alley
* NK/EK, Kedge, Overthere 38-50ish
* Solb bats and bugs into Chardok, maybe finish in bear pits

What would you suggest?

You can read what I've posted before in this thread. You've proven many times you don't read my posts. Please stop asking the same questions over and over when you don't read the answers. It just creates more post volume.

I seem to recall you suggesting warrens into paneel. There's no charming in those zones. There's no where to plat farm while charming until the 40s.

Seems like you're suggesting this person who wants to "be doing as much charm killing as I can" do something other than charming.

There are Bats in the Warrens, so you are incorrect there.
