I tried the new zone said hard to Gerald on all 30 went to public pulled one thinking i was going to get hit very hard and it could not do melee damage to me same as mobs in t10 or lower i am immune to fromtal melee so i zoned my others out equipped guardian charm and did a Zone pull took about 10 mins for riposte to killl them all but never went below 99% health
They seem to be somewhere between T10 and VP on mob health but with hit me chance of T10 or lower which is no chance they punted me alot but once i was in the corner that did not matter either

i farmed Fear itself 5 hours each day except wednesday i did 0 hours
Looted 2848 dream shards

not all of the 5 hours each day was spent in fear itself i went to sleeper one day for UC4 on a paladin and was not 100% focused on farming when i was in fear as my goal for event was pets for 2 tanks which i noticed i would finnish easily after day 1

I have had the similar issues since monday doesnt matter which zone i am in i wil get a big lag spike then a crash error on 1 or 2 and over half of the others go LD mine do not crash while zoning but it happens in every zone even if i am not fighting .  i have never had LD before monday unless i speared ToFS and even then it was only the one doing the spear

Today i logged in Server population was lower than the last few days it was 180 and i was fine for hours then it happened and when i looked server population was nearer 300

                       Three mobs = 7 mins 2 melee 1 caster 2nd tank almost went down a few times with just the caster on him as i do not  have a cleric to heal that one

I got Noots Crusty Spatula of Spanking from Hills of Shade for my cleric today and noticed it has no augment slot for epic . Seems odd as it can only be used by classes that can not dual wield

Something seems to have changed with PB spawns in Sunderock.  Every other time i have done this tier Pbs were always done before i was ally to all 3 faction. but this time i will have Faction done in 5 task but still need 340 Plagueborn . I am often spearing and getting as little as 2 PB from it never seen that before this is Wargod . Nyzin was my main years ago

I got Ally to all factions and still need 155 Plagueborn at the current spawn rate thats over 20 more spears needed :-(

Set the Corals FREE

I think you have put an augment into your weapon that has a higher level requirement than your current level. I saw other new players mention that happening recently and found the augment to be what caused it im guessing you got some augments from qvic or PoD and combined them to get higher ranks . if that is not the case i have no idea
