Title: potime or Ldon?
Post by: Lodar on April 12, 2010, 10:24:17 am
So... I am only missing my king cards from LDON for CG/FG.  What should I do?  Should I hit potime first for gear before attempting the card farming?

I went to LDON on a full BOT set... I was getting in tough fights on first floor so I was wondering...

Both LDoN and time are going to be tough in that gear if you're soloing.  They're designed for a group at that level, but then you'll have to split the tokens/cards/pages/gear with others who need them.

Assuming you can get the group, I'd go for LDoN and get FG/CG access.  Having the benefits of the guilds will help with progression

i second the notion of fg/cg first. Especially since your so close already. It's fairly easy to have someone help you get to lvl 5. And then you can just stay there until you get the cards. The benny's are worth it.

Why level 5?
Card dont drop earlier on?

I am also 3-boxing war, cleric and wiz, all full BOT armor
Soon ill replace the wiz with mage when i finish leveling him off.

Just a pain to get the damn stone to go to 2nd lol

well if you're 3 boxing with full BoT gear, should be easier than some people ive seen try to go through LDoN (I'm looking at you Mr. "I want my epic 3.0 but only have Pauldal Caverns gear"....)
you'll just have to take it slow. since your clerics mana regen isnt the greatest in the world yet. should be ok though just the 3 of you. For speed i would recommend getting some other people though

I've only seen them from floor 5, other floor drop all except King's Chest

All armor cards can drop on any floor 2 - 5.  No cards drop on 1 and only illusion cards drop on 6. 

However...Each floor has a kind of card or cards that drop more prevelantly than others.  I don't recall the breakdown, but in the beginners guide in the guides/quests section Danyelle has spelled out pretty well what to expect on each floor.  I can tell you tho that the King's Chest cards drop most commonly from lvl 5.  You will find it an extremely rare drop on any other level.

I personally agree with the fact that the CG/FG would help your characters progression.  However, I also feel that working on your epic 1.5 and getting PoTime gear is important as well.  It's hard to say really. 

I think you'd have better luck getting some good gear in PoTime and it'd make it alot easier to get thru the LDON's.

Yesterday i felt like a lucky man, had 2 kings cards drop on lower lvls, and then on lvl 5 4 more dropped off trash, and 4 more off boses, double loot, double kings cards ahhaha, man it was a lucky evening for me

Very nice, seems the double loot weekend helped mend some of the problems caused by a massive influx of P99'ers.

moving back to the original question potime is not as hard as it first seems

dont forget to farm gear from the bot towers that stuff will be helpful

and remeber to get 3x wizard hire's and get a bow with a long range to pull and stay away from geodes

melee dps is easier to bot in than caster tho so not sure how much more difficult it is with that setup
