all of my first 4 characters on this account I've captured pets with. So I can just swap their secondaries to ranger and do some form of pet build. I always thought it'd be cool to bring 8 people with 8 pets to do some PvE. Even without any pet attack skills, they could just run interference.

True Satis, that could be fun sometime. Whilst going through story I used to just bring Charm and Comfort; pet usually outlived me

lol if you think i'm a bad farmer you really have no clue about farmers. I'm a casual farmer compared to 90% of people out there. I just got lucky coz I haven't been there in a while

Just reached the 2nd mission... gonna be a pain in the backside, though I have some nice spells on my rit now. Should be fun to try them out *looks evil* I need monstrous claws x 16 (I have one ) for my next rit armour so i think im just gonna wait til i reach kainung centre and get the full armour. Won't help me much in the mission but see if i care.

Pev should stop lying and admit her farming addiction! Hehehe...but you're right, real farmers spend the entire day and game farming. Must be kids and/or unemployed suckas with a veeeeeeery long attention span.


I'll help you bitches out with my 1337or monk and my even 1337orzer skills for that mission. Regardless, I think you might still want to bring a henchie monk.

Btw Pev, the mission looked pretty easy for human parties...imho. As long as you can make good pulls and stay clear from the plague clouds it's ok. And that's kinda the problem with henchies.

lol if you ask me it's easier with henchies. Ox, have you ever tried to pull with humans in a party? There's always one who doesn't listen and runs in with you, keeping the fight at the danger spot. Besides I can pull with henchies and keep them out of the clouds so should be fine. I cleared half the map last night (failed due to a large group of enemies and i was too tired to bother trying to separate them/wait for them to separate)

Btw my rit is lvl 14 now with a lvl 9 Crane.

Well, ok, but when I speak of a "human party" i mean "a human party that doesn't suck". I should have put that more clearly.

go ritualists! hehe. Just redid the Zen mission with henchies; time of 17.52 so now I have the first two expert-ed. woot! Still need more claws though thinking I may farm that mission, since there's a ton of afflicted there and they're most likely to drop monstrous items.

ooh you got a hydra... my ranger got a necrid horseman.

As for the boss thing, bosses now do double damage, which I think is a good (though bloody annoying) thing. The most annoying are the Rit bosses with that damned spirit rift and spirit burn. Usually when Ox is trying to res me, so I die straight away. Bastards.

Satis, post pics of your rit please, I need to see all armour so I can decide my rits final one! I've gone Imperial so far (after Seitung though), also with the spirits controlled mods.
