Re: Can aging please be modified?

EC was a massive part of my strategy for one of the 30+ lairs in Cob.

Its useful and we used it in a very specific party to defeat the lair.

Honestly the ageing isn't as bad as your making it out to be.

Re: Can aging please be modified?

You know certain lairs in Cob drop YP's right?

Also there is a special place you can buy YP's after level 25, they cost 5meg each.

If you think the aging is bad at your level, wait until you get to mine I consume 2-3 per day.

Re: Fixes, changes, etc.

How about a Killer Bow (or just fix the GDH2 bow since its like a wet noodle and is relatively hard to obtain) Perhaps a Killer Axe and Killer Staff ? (im not sure why these weapon classes have been neglected) Please fix that stupid popup that occurs each time I right click on my NL helm to activate...

Re: Mentalist damage is unbalanced... in a bad way.

If your under the impression a thief can exp faster than a mentalist then your doing it wrong. If CrazyCob is too hard for you, perhaps wait until you grow a few level in normal cob before going back? I used to make 100m/hour in Normal cob hunting very specific areas, its very possible because we ha...

Re: Mentalist damage is unbalanced... in a bad way.

Since I was the squeaky wheel here let me comment. Fact 1: There are no groups like there used to be. The player base is basically separated into the 78-85 guys and the newbies. While it's not unheard of to get a group outside of Nameless, it is exceedingly difficult and levels are not usually clos...

Re: MA gauntlets - Juntes vs. Timmy caves RD gauntlets

Timmy cave rare drop RD gaunts have always been the preferable gaunts of choice for MA's in cob until they can get ud5 Radas.

I remember challene cob, my MA dominated from an early on stage because of the Timmy RDs.

Its worth checking if UD1 and UD5 rada gaunts hit the same, that's worth a test!

Re: Breaking Down the COB Item Barrier

All I can say is that, be careful when doing this because you may cause damage to the NL 'experience' I know this because, on the opening day of NL if myself and my group had cob gear it would have been a walk in the park. Also, allowing Barbs to rock Nork/NL with GK2 gear?!?! are you INSANE>?!!!! (...

Nice :) It would be cool with the damage on the GDH2 bow was tweaked to fall in line with the Killers weapons. I like using bow on my barb too. As long as I can still have weapon dropped or zoo "jarred", I think a Barbarian can benefit from MA skill. It can often take some time to pick wea...

Yeah, I could post the same that the Pally focus does not work right with my skill 39 MA pally, but the bottom line is that class was never designed to use MA skills with class abilities. some work, others don't.
