Title: Newb with questions about gear
Post by: Candara on May 13, 2011, 03:53:19 pm
New to the server but not new to EQ or the zones.  I'm 55 and leveling straight to 70 playing a paladin.  I've noticed there seem to be little to no non-vis drops.  Shoulder, neck, back, waist, fingers, ear etc.  Also with the epic vendor making the epic 1 hander, I haven't seen a single shield.  Any thoughts?  Should I camp old world for a shield?  Do the Dulak, BoT named drop non vis and shields?

In dulak (you get ported out when you ding 61) all of the misc slots and weapons drop from the zone bosses.  They all share a common loot table, so you can camp one of them if you want.  I remember a bone shield dropping there for pally / sk.

I'm also a newb but slightly ahead of you Candara.

Definitely camp the Dulak bosses - there is some nice melee stuff there that I still haven't upgraded despite a lot of boss kills in BoT.

Once you hit 70, none of that stuff matters anyway.  As soon as you get into PoTime, every boss drops up to 6 items ( I think ) and they are a combo of legs, BP's, misc armor, and tons of jewlery and cloaks along with weapons and ranged items.  Keep on truckin, you'll get there.

The gear drops in areas in that zone
wrists are in ice (stampy and eight eyes)
boots are in the rocks (gemcutter/warlord area)
helm is in the same area as lockjaw and the eternal
can't remember offhand what drops in desert area (ssss and djinn)
or what drops in the time area (silverknight)
BP, and jewellry pieces only fall from bosses

If you plan on doing the ring of ages quest, a full suit of dulak gear is helpful. You can equip it at level 1, for the most part.  keep an eye out in time, there are a couple of items that have no level restrictions as well.
