Your right it's not that difficult to make some money. I hover around 3-4mil on avg. So say I had the ess I need for my uw. Then borrow the play get the eon and plat thing from the guild guy boom u got epic. Then as you make more money it's played back. Say set it to IP and 1 loan at a time and u didn't have to rely on others for money

I had an idea that may or may not work just curious what yall think.

Have an NPC that you can go and take a loan out of a certain plat need. and have it set that each time money gets transferred to your character whether it be trade, selling to npc or looting, a certain % comes out of that transaction to pay off your loan.

In an ideal playing situation I always used 12 characters. In my later years I opted for 18 characters.

Why? Because,

1. I liked having all the buffs available at all times
2. Classes change from time to time, spells, etc so I wanted to make sure I had at least 1 of all classes current.

Classes I never benched were, Warrior, Paladin, Cleric, Shaman, Druid, Mage, Zerker, Monk, Enchanter

If I had to build a single 6 character team....

Warrior, Paladin, Druid, Monk, Zerker and Enchanter

BUT, that's me. This server is so widely diverse. You can literally make nearly every combination work. Some players use SK and Paladins as main tanks, even in the later end tiers.

In the end its a simple formula, Tank, Healer and DPS.

How you get there is subject to how you want to play. Pulling massive amounts of mobs for farming would dictate a different group/raid make up than a progression team in some regards.

Not everyone wants to load 12 characters and a lot of players over the years have had a lot of success with 6 characters only. The fewer the character count the more you will need to progress each character, ie the more side quests to compensate for the lack of raw dps/healing.

Hopefully that gives you some ideas

This is why I have spent time not doing tiers but instead farming what I could sell for soa  and mana neck and roa  and resistance charms. So that from what I have been told and read when I start doing tiers ill be able to go a tad further before a dps check or ac check hurts me

I'm new been progressing slowly due to time constraints but from what I seen all toons bring something to the table. Honestly I'd replace the mage with a macro for death spell. I just got that yesterday and I cut my pulls from 30-40 sec kills down to 10-12 seconds. Healing I went with dry for the skin like drake line which has saved me a ton on inc pulls

Oh ok cool thank you

I did MPG this morning and I ended up with 10 charm prism upgrades from the run. I tried to sell them to the hive queen and it freezes my client. wont let me do anything but camp and doesn't buy the upgrades from me.

With how broken server economy is I don't think doing expeditions will break it any further.

Not so much worried about economy as I am about giving people almost instant uc on new toons and boxes. My toons avg 19-25 shards that can be used for any level charm. So by doing it how I suggested for those of us that only get to pop on here and there it's a possible benefit without giving the hardcore toons too much

While I was walking through work I had an idea. A no drop click item that resets expedition for full grp. Tofs1 or gsoa in rarity. Once in a while give toons an instant 2nd run . Have the click be 24-48 hour reset timer so it can't be spammed and break anything

Is the guardian 50 charm gonna be fixed or just hold through till ic?

Yea been bouncing between there and pyramid. I seem to get more ess at pyramid so it's a decent tradeoff

I have heard people shouting that too lol
Dont let RNG get to you this early!

What u mean?

RNG = Random Number Generator. Essences are random - you get more by killing more...the pyramid has nothing to do with it. One day you will swear the server understands what last armor piece you need before moving on a tier and refuses to drop it for you.it is at that point RNG has won.

I agree I love this server it is very well put together and the community is amazing! Some things I don't understand but I'm new and figure in time it will all make sense. I can't wait to pass the t5 threshold as I hear that's the make it or break it

I have done a lot of survivability work on my toon but I'm still a been so nothing to compare that to

Probably but even then I can only pull 1 level of the pyramid at a time before I get smoked
