Yep you are right! 

These are not even needed (for anyone other than tank/knight classes) until t10. If someone is just starting out by halloween, or when they enable halloween event, can get one easily. This is kinda silly imo

 Im sorry I did not follow you there, what was silly about starting a conversation about the cost of a specific item? I would also counter that the additional hp and mitigation provided by the pet specifically early on in the lower tiersof the game ,were it easily adds 2x 3x or more hp to your tank.  Would be of extreme value and that  the pet buff actually begins to lose value in the top tiers as the hp part of the buff is barely passing a single gear piece.( Yes it does add significantly to the mitigation needed in the top tiers, but im speaking of the 'value' of the complete IG pet buff and sooner is certainly better then later on a progression timeline.

The topic it self isn't silly.  The fact that you have SO much opportunity through the year to get it for free, hence the thread is kinda pointless. In lower tiers the mitigation you get from the self-buffs is proficient to tank the content. HECK with the super buffs being pumped out of Nexus every hour is enough to be a leg up to ANY new player w/o ANY mitigation!

Using RoF2 so maybe is spell file....seems I got 11/29/19 spell file...... 12/15/19 is the newest spell file so maybe it will fix it.

This can be pinpointed to a specific instance where your friendly botters on the server have been occupying 1 toon spread out across 16-20 zone instances, macroing zone pulls, subsequently lagging the server out to the point where the rest of the server has been suffering from this. I've been automatically killing instances where this exists and will be addressing said botters (you know who you are); and I've not had adequate time to really address the situation as I've been neck deep in work and then leading hard into the holidays which have been very busy for me and always is when you do a lot to support your family, sprinkle an emergency room visit for your grandmother in there as well

Why don't we ever "out" these friendly botters publicly? Would be nice to know as I am sure not many people would be willing to do trades, etc. with these people....or better yet why not ban them outright? Better to be shot of people like this than to have people who screw the ENTIRE server over!

To what end?

So we know who is doing it and maybe people not buying/trading from these people will limit people from trying to do this for profit.  Ultimately it effects the server economy negatively.

I am sure it is lore so that each toon wanting one, just like the UW, has to be crafters guild flagged to make it.  Keeps people from making one toon to do all crafters guild stuff from just one toon.

Figured it out! With the help of Icestriker sending me his eqclient.ini. For some reason in the Video Modes section of the eqclient I had a WinEQWidth and an WinEQHeight......seems that was what was messing it up.....deleted thse and it worked fine.

Did you try the spell DA or the Alternate Ability Divine Aura?  The spell DA works fine for me it is the AA version that is buggy for me? Thanks for testing it on your end though...if it was the AA version you tested then maybe it is something on my end but I have the newest spell/server files (I think)

I have my clients each on windowed mode and have "Allow window resizing" checked and "Overlap windows taskbar" unchecked.  My screen resloution on computer specs are at 1920x1080...in-game setting is Video Mode: 1768x922...so the client screen is smaller than the monitor BUT I can not drag the client window to fit the screen. I know it must be something simple I am missing.  Doing google searches has been unfruitfil...so any tips?

Using paladin's Divine Aura AA is causing client to bug out.  Spell gems will not refresh, when you click on them it says, "You haven't recovered yet"....also causes any /assist command to not go to that toon(the pally) for whatever reason.  When I log him out and back in it is fixed.

Kill the pest is not updating....unless it is more than just trash in zone?

It isn't.

so the spell ink recipe components are dropping way too much?

They drop A LOT in T10....when I pull a camp I will get 5-6 spell drop parts per pull
