Default Whatcha doing ASAP when kunark comes out?

Though I might have a better chance at the twig than the blade [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I dunno man I’ve been playing EQ so long sometimes I just log in and stare at the screen then log out. It’s pretty bleak in Norrath these days although I do enjoy chatting with new folks and helping out new people. Chances are they aren’t really new but it’s the illusion you see!

Ya know I’ve thought about starting a caster but then the idea of researching my spells was always a huge turn off. In all my time on p99 I’ve never had a cloth wearing caster, even on live back in the day I usually stuck to a bard or a melee/hybrid class.

Have you heard about the glory of bone knights?

Or the battle druid? Who tanks for groups and melees and uses tree form and thorns?

Druids is priests, so got 200 defense and 200 offense, with 175 (i think?) weapon skill... it means they can melee and tank effectively!

Then you look at their thorns (7 damage worth of thorns at level 9!!) ... and their regen ability (turn into a tree adds 3 hp a tick at level 9, scales up to 5 a tick...and later they get an oak form! and regens!).

It all comes together to mean if you focus on armor... you can legit tank for a group, and do damage through your thorns (instead of just relying on melee). And you will still being doing fairly ok with melee too (especially with some nice proc weapons, like earthquake staff or the combust scimitar).

Here is a test build I made with kunark era stuff....and nothing crazy fancy. https://wiki.project1999.com/Magelo_Green:Battle_Druid

Hmm thats pretty interesting! But the health seems to be a problem there. Druids can't seem to take much hits especially when they hit lv 20 ish.
