Mob drains increased?

[lugoman]

I am leveling my 4th toon, an intim fighter. I have noticed getting level drained a lot more on this go around than the others. In dream conspiracy on the end fight I was drained of 10 levels before the first named was killed. Same thing with reclaiming the memories. I had to stop and wait 10 minutes for drains to go away.

And no, I dont have the silver flame pendant. I dont like that quest chain and will not run quest that I dont think are fun. Turbine really needs to add another negative level blocking item in game or in the ddo store. If it is alright for me to buy an absorbing trinket on the ah, why isnt it ok to buy one from the ddo store?

So, you want another neg level blocking item to be added to the game because you're too lazy to spend the 1/2 hour it takes to run cursed crypt 2-3x?

We have more than enough immunity items already in the game and it's hard enough for the devs to balance content around all of it without simply upping the mob hp and damage. I am against adding things like this to the ddo store, because I do believe that once we start doing so we will be only a very short ways from adding raid loot. Play the game and get the items you need or suck it up and take the neg levels which are a consequence for your laziness in not acquiring a necessary item.

Get a couple Visor of the Flesh Render Guards. Everyone who can't Death Ward themselves should carry at least two.

you're in luck! there is such another item.

visors of the fleshrender guards. works a bit different, but does the job...

The developers should add the feat Font of Life from the D&D 3.5 rulebooks. It allows a Fortitude save to negate incoming energy drains.

Additionally they could create items imbued with that feat. Here is an OLD suggestion to that effect:

Be happy! There is already a negative level absorbing item in the DDO store, that pendant thingy you give to a friend.

(I might be remembering wrong, don't know anyone who's actually bought it)

For another alternative you can use death ward cakes, clickies, hirelings or scrolls to block all Harm damage & Negative Levels.

heh i actually had more level drains on my first char than further ones... However, my new human fighter is getting hit with held monster every 2 seconds D:

I actually have a job. I go there and work. I come home and play a game for FUN. Laziness has nothing to do with it. I will not play quest where I dont have fun doing them. It is the only way I have of showing Turbine what I like. If they see no one runs quest x, then they probably wont make another one like it in the future. BTW, sitting on your butt in front of a computer 10 hours a day playing a game is most peoples definition of lazy.

Half-an-hour to both get into a group and run the entire chain? I don't think so. If only it were true.
