Failed Normal Shroud...

[Blackbird]

I figured it was because I used the dreaded "e" word.

But anyways, if you think this you haven't read my prior posts very thoroughly. As I said before, I commented on the arcanes because I know there were some of them who weren't dotting harry at all. That's equivalent to a melee not swinging or a divine not throwing mass cures/heals. To compare my contribution even while not having a DR breaker to them hardly even doing damage is just silly. I contributed more than them, that's just a fact. They weren't doing hardly any damage. My toon did thousands of points of damage. I'm not "bashing" them, just pointing out what happened in the run.

Not necessarily. DoTs are not the only way to damage Harry. I don't know how long you've been around but DoTs are relatively new. We ran Shroud for years without them. I know you said that the casters were casting other inappropriate spells such as Wail but I didn't want you to think that it was Dots or nothing. Either way, 3 arcanes can't carry a bunch of melee that are also doing insufficient damage.

Second, making money really ISN'T hard in DDO...it just requires doing something like farming collectables. Just running Tangleroot, for example, a couple of times (at most) and collecting all of the collectables, then selling them on the AH, would make you enough money to buy the sword you paid for...similarly, farming chests in a place like Orchard or Gianthold or Vale can make you lots of money, between items to deconstruct for essences/possibly sell on the AH and useful collectables/ingredients to sell as well. As hard as people like to pretend it, getting plat in DDO isn't hard...just boring.

Or you could work the street corners in the Harbor like Wrunt.
