Confirmation required re: TR, ITr and ETr

[Garix]

If I'm reading the Wiki correctly there is no form of TR available that nets me a Iconic Past life AND a Epic Past life in one go?

I'd have to do Iconic and Class past lives and then concentrate on Epic ones?

Case in Point. Currently have a WF Sorc that's about to hit 20 and I'm about to TR him into a Iconic (not sure which yet either BF or Gnome), I may wait till I'm 30 to do an Epic TR followed by a Heroic TR.

Once that Iconic hits 30 I can do either of the following:

a) Iconic TR gaining me Iconic and Heroic Past life

OR

b) Epic TR to gain a Epic Past life then re-level back to 30 before I could do anything else

Is this correct? It's an either/or choice?

Cheers

Seems to me you have understood that right :)

Thought I had but always good to get confirmation. Many thanks :)

Hmmm I understood it different, but I may be wrong.

Lets say I did a standard BF PLD.

I would go from 15 to 30. I could then Iconic TR to 20...then Heroic TR to 1 and get a PLD Past life?

I was under the impression when you did an Iconic TR you had to go to either 1 or 15 from 30.

So I always planned to do BF PLD... 15 to 30 for an Epic Past life...back to 20 to go back to 30 for the Iconic Past life (which would drop me to 1 or 15?)

I have not done this before, but I would like someone to chime in as well.

I'd based my info of this (http://ddowiki.com/page/File:Reincarnation_FlowGraph.jpg)

Iconic TR's will never take you to 20, so this part is incorrect.

The OP was correct, with an Iconic TR, there is no way to get an epic PL.

You start BF at 15, go to 30, epic reincarnate, go back to 20, get Epic past life, go to 30, get iconic and heroic past life, go back to (1 or 15).

Iconic TR makes you start over as it was heroic TR.

Be sure to make a build that can go to 30, and write it down, since you have to remake it later.
Also doing Epic and iconic life's back to back is boring grind. Epic game play is really grindy and boring at the moment. When I did my iconic life, I had to make a break, and play some other characters for a while.

Awesome info, I wasn't sure how it worked.

Thanks!

Yes, you have it correct.

If you have a good build, you might even consider a 2nd or 3rd Epic Life before the Iconic Reincarnate.

Well said. +1
