    Really GH makes more of a difference on your Midbies then on your cappped and geared out lvl 20s--so let your noob borrow one for a bit if you don't want to buy one.

    Nothing irks me more than having to use a scroll on someone that I just paid 900K plat to for an item last week And yes I can afford it but I want to fight , nto stand around scrolling and buffing all day

    How did the maze go?

    Also shadow crypt underwater mazes, necropolis 3 the underwater one, and.... (need some help here) [EDIT]Ack, that's necro 2 as well. Well, technically you can do them without UA, but it's a lot harder...[/EDIT]

    (need to grind me some minos and planar grid as well, though I do already have heavy fort from lv 6 medium fort docent, so I'm not particularly urgent on that)

    The endless boring swimming in Necropolis 2, one of the Shadow something.

    I never did Delera with UW, but IIRC my 8 STR wiz did it just before starting to drown.

    What is its dropping rate? My rogue is not very lucky but did the trps for PuGs in Xorian Cypher at least 15 times, let alone my other toons. Never seen one.

    Very low or atleast for me it is, have been playing for a long time and have never pulled one myself... and trust me I have done more then a few runs lol. but yea its a lot more efficient to just run Bastion for the necklace and pass ur girds off to lowbies.

    people actually need UWA in Deleras to get the lever? never even bother giving my toons uwa lol

    Yea firewalls don't stack on things that are active at the time it is cast......

    and to the Op, since I Tr'd my main I have noticed a lot of this... haven't ran many low lvl quest before this, love joining groups with people who "know" how to do something... but turns out they don't.... and when it turns out they don't and u try to help them.... they get all crazy on u like they are the cookie monster and u stole his cookies or somethin... Since im not in a guild has pretty much resulted in me soloin everythin... normally get it done faster that way neways... and never understand people yelling and just bein downright mean to new players.... I mean I remember a time when I didn't even know how to run WW.... we were all new to the game at one point....

    Just really wish new players and a lot of old players would learn to listen and take criticism from people who actually wanna help.... especially those trying to run things like the von raid on lowbies.... yet have no idea how to get thru part 5 or know that they changed part 6..... I will say tho I decided to join an lfm earlier tonight and it actually went well.. even let me lead them thru crucible elite since none of them knew the maze/swim....

    The trick is buy it off the AH... They go for only 2 million gold on Thelanis... Yeah, that's a lot for a new player, but anyone who has TRed should have a couple of girds.

It is like going to a museum and bragging about how fast you made it through. Or bragging about how fast you finished a good steak.

    I thought it caused fails?

    Summon MrCow
    Spell Description: Once per day you can call upon the Soloing God of Cheesecake. Casting this causes your knees to shake and your hands to tremble.
    Effect: Upon uttering the magical phrase "Oh MrCow is good and great and how about those videos?" MrCow will appear before you. Monsters will run for their lives and doors will psionically seal themselves and go away on holiday until he has left. Any quest you are busy with will assume completion but you will gain no loot, favour or experience. Characters using this spell have been known to vanish as if deleted from the world due shame at having to invoke MrCow and waste his time.
    Save: Yes Will (DC 69), monsters making their save will immiediately offer their services to be MrCow's hirleing.

    B) It is both bad form and stupidity to start the quest off without first even asking if anyone has the skills to get the extra xp and faster run from talking to the guys at the beginning.

    You forgot the "no buff policy".

    C) Saying let me just do this alone and then dying without first figuring out if someone else is better equipped is ill advised. Particularly when it is the swim and you have to borrow an UA item from another party member.

    I forgot that part but it was way too funny

    D) Firewalls do not stack by throwing them one on top of each other.

    They doesn't stack though they still do area damage - though relying only for me for the last fight was dumb.. especially my teleport button was so close after being told how stupid i was..


    E) Jumping across the top of the maze before it is clear and then yelling for people to come kill the mobs you jumped into was amusing, particularly as it was interlaced with yelling at other group members about how what they were doing was not right.

    Yeah that was another example of bad leadership

    F) Cloudkill most certainly is a good spell versus red names. It does acid damage and gives the concealment miss chance. This falls under the don't yell at another party member for doing something useful and telling them it is dumb.

    Strange cause they were taking the acid damage and i thought they were damaged a little bit by the CON update.. (no death though they took maybe a few con dmg.. i did not see the "immune" pop.

    G) Telling everyone no buffs are needed constantly is silly to do when you have a bard in party confused about when he is supposed to buff...particularly when you are on the end fight and there is zero reason for the bard not to buff.

    I believe the no buff policy was really really stupid - duh
    H) PK the maze mobs - where most of the were shammy/priest - high fort/will creature - i was lv11..

    I) No buff policy - even on normal run where most people were under the level req - and he asked a few time for buffes later.

    J) Ignoring others strength and weaknesses (lv/gear/capability) and

    K) I'm sure i forgot some juicy moment... Did he brag about his greensteel e-peen ?

    L) No buff policy again.. darn.. did i forget to say these cometfaller gnolls also use negative spell - death ward someone ???


    I agree it was a flagrant example of cheap leadership and i've to tell you that i teleported out of his TS raid a few day before that crucible run. I admit that i had some problem running with the wizzy and i wasn't at my best shape either (after being told a few time at the beginning that i was stupid and asked if i could run the quest "braindead style" ).

    After inspecting his stats on my ddo i'm sure he could solo the whole ddo world by himself at lv12.. .


    I will gladly pm the name and also give an extra rotted apple i ran with during the weekend

    PM the name, please.

    Edit: thanks for the name. If I was the leader of this guild, I'd be getting nervous, as this isn't the first complaint I've heard about them.

    I'm just lucky that my guild only has one noob in it

    Except for the 'elite' reference, I think you might be talking about me! I know I'm stubborn but I simply refuse to pay for a gird. I've run that dang quest so many times and still haven't pulled one it's starting to become a Grail for me!

    i was in there with im and we were sending ourselves /tell about it. It was not a joy ride and all because of the said leader. Of course i am tempted to give the name of the guy to prevent anyone having to live thru this, but you know i can't. He is on my squelch list and that is good enough for me
