Eq mage drops hate6/4/2023 ![]() ![]() The other issue is that the aggro had become a problem in general, even against 1 mob, the Earth pet was struggling to survive, with the instant heal being spammed, and the promised heal helping but still not really cutting it, the only way to not lose the pet was to spam nukes as fast as possible. In this time, the poor Earth pet had been thoroughly molested, and the other pets were dropping like flies because the Earth pet couldn't hold aggro on multiple mobs. I would have to cast at least 12 but more like 18 to take a mob down, maybe even more. They would rip the pets to shreds and the nukes were not doing much damage anymore so even 6 of them felt like it barely scratched. In HA's, with no way to split pull, I ended up having to fight groups of 3 mobs. This worked well for a while longer.Īt about level 75 I tried some HAs and things started going wrong. I now had one mage running an earth pet with taunt enabled, and that character had pet heal and pet armor buff, and the others all stayed pure dps. I had originally been using 6 fire pets or 6 water pets just for the dps, but now there were pets dying regularly, so I was forced to tweak things a bit. ![]() By level 70 ish, this was becoming a problem. I think a second cast (so 12 nukes landing), would kill most things, but this meant that the pets had to actually do some tanking now. At around 60 ish, things changed and the mobs got tougher and ahead of the curve, so 6 nukes would not kill them. Pets would arrive at the mob, and the 6 big nukes would arrive a second later and the mob was dead. For the first 50 or so levels, every mob died in 2 seconds. I would send the 6 pets, and all would cast a nuke. I didn't do any power levelling or twinking, I just played them as a group from level 1 and all I was using was key broadcasting. I have boxed many different types of groups, but I often see people suggesting 6 box mages for the lolz of it, and after so many years, I decided to give it a shot last year to see if it would work. Anyone ever try this? I am new to this forum so plan to participate in more useful posts a bit later but for now I thought I'd share my bit of experience doing this. ![]()
