Are you skipping platty fire weds entirely until velium?

At the moment they're like 1k/pair, compared to >200 for the golden rings.

I have some good pieces but I haven't been farming guards or something with the quick respawn. Some people really made bank before Secrets nerfed it.

Samoht = Jesus

Listen to this man!

Jesus wore sandals so unless he was a monk his AC prolly sucked. Other than that, info was indeed gold.

Got to 11 with a nice stash of gnoll fangs for when I'm ready to leave BB. My defense is capped and most of my combat skills. I've been using slam over kick, mainly because the stun is useful for fleeing mobs when I can't pull near a green one.

Any smart plays for using my training points now or down the line?

[Jimjam]

I dumped my points into archery, but it hasn’t really helped afaik. Didn’t find a half decent bow yet though.

[Samoht]

I wouldn't spend points on combat stuff. You don't really even need archery skill unless you're zerker bow kiting.

The most important thing to spend points on is going to be bind wound so that you use fewer bandages and hit the cap sooner.

There's no real reason to save points, tho. At 60 they just sit there until you want to learn languages or work on tradeskills, but a lot of tradeskills are really easy to start without dropping points. Plus you can only train up to like 20.

Do kited mobs have higher regen on Quarm? Or just high base regen?

A while back I was kiting a level 20 rogue doing about 6-10 damage every 5 seconds or so and it's regen easily laughed it off. I'd have thought they'd only do 1/tick at that level.

I remember being able to kite down hill giants at 17 on test server (admittedly with a trueshot longbow instead of a basic longbow). Doesn't feel right that xp mobs were undentable.

Sorry, I got a further Quarm warrior related post, so I hope yu don't mind me dropping it in here-

on p99 off hand weapons with procs are decent when duall wield skill is low (as the procs can still happen even when dual wield fails to cause a swing).

I've noticed that on Quarm procs only happen in offhand at the same time as a swing. Is the successful proc check forcing a swing, or is it only possible to proc on a successful dual wield?

Anyone already worked it out before I go off the deepend?

[spoil]

Think an exe axe 25/50 is better than dual-wielding SSOY 8/24? Level 22, too low for either proc.

[Jimjam]

Imo dw is pretty crap at low skill, but really you want to be swapping every couple of levels to keep those skills capped.

If I had to choose I’d take the exe axe cos low delay weapons will devour your hp when facing damage shields (lots of these at fungus mutant, najena and on barbed bone skeletons - all likely targets for your XPing).

Deepend deepend.
