Hunter of the Dead

I agree with everyone else, unless you're a Healing Amp build, HotD is best as a level 6~13 to 15 pre. By then you should have acquired the gear that effectively replaces most of its conferred abilities.

Thats one of the nice features of HotD, no Feat prerequisites, so its pretty easy to swap it in, then out.

i luv the healing amp on my pally/monk.
healing amp when focused on is far from useless.

Okay - point taken. I'll go get my farming hat on. :-)

Don't farm... farming will suck the joy out of this game for you...

Just buy a ghost touch weapon for now, save your money, and buy some spectral gloves someday on the Auction House...

Almost every nice item I own, I bought on the AH...

When you first get into the Shroud, sell all your large ingrediants and after a few runs, you'll be able to buy spectral gloves, planar gird, etc.

But then you delay getting your T3 items by several runs (especially if you sell scales).


On the other hand, I still haven't gotten a Bloodstone through hundreds of runs in the sands, nor Spectrals, nor a spellstoring ring...

Ingrediants are guaranteed when you run the Shroud... Sell those, buy the Bloodstone, Spectrals, spellstoring ring, etc.

A lot easier and faster to run Shroud, make money, and buy the other stuff than it is to farm all those other items.

It's kind of like when the Risia ice games were going, and people asked how long it took to get 1 full icy-burst kit. I told them it took exactly 30 minutes (1 Shroud run) to get enough money/ingrediants to buy/trade for 1-4 icy-burst kits.

It took me 3 years out in the desert to get a spell storing ring. I managed to pull 3-4 blood stones and 2 sets of greaves before I pulled that stupid thing. Back in the day it was usefull to a paladin, now a days though with a more inflated spell point total, it doesn't do squat (espeically on any real caster). Good luck making it epic as well.

Okay - that's not quite as bad as I initially read it, if quests can drop 1-3. I figured I was going to be running three quests twenty times each to flag for Tor.

(Yes, yes, n00b. Should go read the wiki, etc. )

They should yes but they wont. A Newbie will. Leave the self dissing to the pro's.
