Casual Dreams

There isn't a hard cap on ATK as a whole, but two factors come into play to limit ATK and its effectiveness: - There is a worn (read: gear) ATK cap of 250 (which supposedly can be raised with AAs but may be out of our level range on Casual Dreams). Avatar buffs/procs count toward this cap, other spe...

Made some edits and shifted some of the middle tier rankings around. Beastlord and Shaman got the biggest boost in ranking, mostly due to observing that their pets can, in fact, equip weapons, greatly boosting their theoretical endgame DPS. I moved Rangers and Druids down a bit due to more observati...

Define "everywhere", where have they been spotted? I've only seen in Nadox and Umbral Plains. Also, if this mechanic is meant to enforce a certain constraint or ruleset, it'd be nice to actually know what that is. We've gotten multiple changes lately that haven't been fully documented outs...

Poru gave me some info that may put the Shaman in the top half, honestly. I had incorrectly assumed their pets could not equip weapons, but they can, giving them lots of damage potential from procs. A Shaman also has buffs that the bots do not, specifically a proc rate buff I missed in my analysis t...

(UPDATED 12/5/2018! Removed the "ranking" angle and focused more on a strengths/weaknesses analysis) I commonly see the following questions in OOC chat: Does <class archetype> do well here? Are <class>s good on this server? Those are perfectly reasonable concerns to have. Everquest, despit...

Thanks for putting in the highlights, as well as copying it to a page that is readable =P One thing the weapon chart does not take into account is procs. The Quarm hammer pet packs a wallop and probably puts it above all the daggers in the offhand. Unfortunately this is not trivial to parse since th...

That's a lot of improvement. A couple notes based on what you said: - VZ's stun also comes with a feign death component. When it hits, don't move and definitely don't sit up until you see the "You are no longer stunned" message. Granted, that same FD component can also fail to aggro wipe, ...

The mana drain portion of the Flaming Arrows AA is working way too fast. The buff says "drains 30 mana per tick", but my mana pool of 8600+ is wiped out in 4 ticks. Haven't tested this with Frost Arrows yet, but would assume similar behavior.

Poru, can you clarify what "60 minute last call" means?

If you're PBAE grinding by zone pulling, the 70 delay isn't going to matter that much. You're gonna get way more damage/procs due to Riposte than you would swinging with a faster weapon + haste is going to get that delay down to 35-40 + recast time on PBAE proc limits how effective extra swings are....
