I just did two more runs during boss weekend. These were more casual (and realistic). 15:23 On Abies, 212 Priest 100/Monk 60/Druid 40. The way I did it faster last time was by polymorphing into rabbit form before and after combat to save on walking time. Additionally, I forced myself to lure as many...

Level 181 Halftroll 100 rogue / 100 fighter

20 minutes melee, dual wielding foil & machete

The Challenge: Time your run of the Anathema dragons loop, solo and without dying. Don't skip any parts of the map (e.g. ice dragons, hybrids, 2x2s), but feel free to skip any respawns in areas you've already killed. This is mostly something I did to test class balance using my alts, but if anyone e...

Ok, slight other bug I've noticed with foils is that when you bind "special move" instead of "disarm", special move forces disarm to require 100 rage, even though disarm can now be done at 50 rage. fixed 2022/1/10 Other issue I have is a balancing issue. The new disarm is AWESOM...

Honestly I really like that some weapons are really fast. Looking at the monk it does a lot of damage but doesn't have to rely on slow weapons. Even fighters with great mauls in berserker stance have less single target dps than either rogues or monks, though they also get wallop and AOEs. Overall, I...

Mostly because I'm lazy but it would be cool if you could shift+u blessed uncurse all scrolls on a container in your house to uncurse all of its contents.

As Seph said, if we just made the scaling similar to clays or labbys and gave them the option to use beserk, they would be just as good as the other classes. I don't really play fighter much, but I'm curious - Clays and Labbys are nice since they hit way harder for the special and have stupid fast ...

Nice, was playing around with /swap on my half troll alt. As a half troll, if you equip a 2H weap, /swap, equip a 1h weap, /swap again, you can dual wield a 2h with a 1h weapon. It seems too clunky to have been intended, but it's pretty neat anyways.

Proc chance seems lower for a druid with enchanted shillelagh? With a staff or crook I'm able to get way more spell procs than with a shillelagh.

Just ran heroic blood moor with all our alts! We managed to tank everything with two priests, and in the end the Bloodqueen killed half our party right before dying. The spawned eggs were non-heroic, making for an easy fight. Highlight of the run: taking on four heroic blood wyverns (one named!) at ...

Lutes of power would be fun

Yeah I think it's part of a greater trend in EUO that slower weapons = more damage. You don't see any rogues wielding foils or shortbows for the same reason you don't see fighters with clubs and cleavers. Although they have comparable base dps, slower weapons have: - Slightly faster rage gain - Much...

Two monk ideas:

Quivering palm should be reduced from 100 rage to 50 rage (since it doesn't seem very utilized as is).

It would be cool if Aspect of the turtle had a chance to 'block' both melee attacks and spells.

It's not necessarily a bug but definitely not as intended- With diamond weapons you deal regular damage in rabbit form, but get a huge attack speed boost, meaning significantly more dps. Surprisingly it's not as powerful as I thought, since diamond weapons have low base damage for special attacks. e...

Now that I think about it, isn't tanking stance a little ridiculous? 2x health on already the tankiest build. My fighter alt was able to solo a blood wyvern at level 50 , using only a few potions. All thanks to tanking stance, shield bash spam, and cleave. That simply shouldn't be possible. On a low...

Instead of giving tactics to rogues, how about this: Change: 6 str gives +3 hp (as before), but now 6 dex/int gives +1 hp. So now you get +1 hp for every level in dex/int. Before: Currently at level 500, rogues have around 1100 hp, monks 1500, and fighters 2100 (not counting tactics, which makes it ...

Like Keighn said a kick special attack would be sweet. Monks hit really fast with low damage per strike, but sometimes you just want to hit something once, and hard. A kick could be a 2x dmg melee attack that knocks the opponent back one square. The ideal setup would be to kick right after sleeping ...

So now that the new bard subclass is in development, it's time to start thinking about Rogues and their lack luster foils skill. Foils especially need a buff, but this is also a good time to pitch any ideas for Rogue, or Monks - over the years both classes have fallen behind. And after the tons of r...

I still think it would be cool if you could do a lute solo at 100 rage. Depending on the song active a different effect happens.

^See above for prev post POTENTIAL SONGS (need better names): Casting a song ends the previous song Rage : +15% rage gain, 2x critical hits Lullaby ***: not sure entirely but basically it's an AOE DOT that puts targets to sleep instead of dealing damage. The effect should trigger every 1.5 seconds o...
