60 ENC and 60 SHM gearing each other through soloing

hagglebaby · #1 12-12-2021, 06:34 AM

I have a 60 enc with none of the expensive spells / no epic. I’m closing in on a 60 Shaman as well who also has none of the good gear or spells. By the time he is 60 I will have probably 100k pp between both toons.

My play schedule makes it impossible for me to contribute to a guild so I just solo farm.

After they are geared/spells I would like to be able to try some solo artist challenge stuff.
The ultimate dream would be to eventually pay for the ENC epic MQ from doing cash camps or selling farmed items. I’m guessing the ENC epic would probably be last because I don’t think it helps me farm anything else really. It just looks cool.

What would be the best way to spend the 100K and what is the order in which you would accumulate gear/spells for both toons?

Thanks for your time

nice job boxing a shaman and ench almost to 60 both without getting caught!

You’re on the right track. Get the enc epic, the clicky haste is just too convenient for spell swapping along with the stats. Shamans are powerful but way more expensive and enc will just be more efficient at what you’re trying to do.

Spend the money on Torpor first and foremost, it doesn't really matter too much after that.

based on your income and level, it sounds like you played the shaman exactly correctly: squirreled away the cash to get torp when you ding.

Wouldn’t this leave me with a useless shaman and a slightly more useful enchanter than I currently have?

This is what I was thinking however the only thing that is nagging at me to not go this way is:

torpor is one of the only high end shaman gear/spells I could theoretically farm myself. I know it’s ultra rare but it is possible. Whereas shaman/enc epic I will never get solo.

Pretty sure you can't MQ the enchanter epic, just buy LR for a couple of the bottlenecks(fear,chardok,nek,cabilis).

I would dump that money into torpor and the rest of the stuff into shaman gear/epic mq. Enchanter with 100k in gear is the same as one with 10k gear. The only difference is you might last 2 extra rounds on a charm break.

Shaman will benefit from the gear/spells 100000x more than the enchanter.

Would buy torp, shaman epic, and a fungi as the top 3 shopping list items. Wouldn't buy anything for the enchanter

Buy Torpor and then the most necessary enchanter spells. Those will help more than any items could.

Edit: With regards to your idea about solo finding Torpor, remember that Buying Torpor will increase your platinum farming substancially, so you will get the money back faster. Probably the same with some of those enchanter spells. Torpor also makes solo finding Torpor easier, which would recoup your cost anyway.
