Level 20 Choice

[Eteocles]

<DIV>I know there is another thread for this, but the answers are sooo long and/or not very clear.  Plus it seems like the thread has now been hijacked by a bunch of 30s and 40s debating dps.  Lordy!</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>So I would very much appreciate (and I bet some others would too) some simple straightforward answers to the question of which you think is the best choice for a new Lvl 20 Conjuror. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>The choices are:</DIV> <DIV>     Ganla's Whipping Wand (upgrade to Dust Blast)</DIV> <DIV>     Arcanicus Geotic Blessing (upgrade to Earthly Brand)</DIV> <DIV>     Corryn's Bewildering Balt (upgrade to Petrify)</DIV> <DIV>     Pandrus Tellurian Hero (upgrade to Tellurian Recruit)</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Thanks!</DIV>

Ganla's, hands down.You won't be using Pandrus' Tellurian Hero beyond level 32. It makes no sense to get a training spell that has a short lifetime like that.

<P>Ganla's no doubts at all and then at lvl 24 drop the coin to get Tellurian Soldier Adept 3. I am lvl 31 and still using as my primary non-DoT nuke, normally my finisher for standard fight H/O's. I do not regret picking this spell. </P> <P> </P> <P>The pet is pointless since Tellurian adept 3 is a great spell to lvl 38 as I hear.</P> <P>Petrify has worked great for me till I got Frozen in Time at lvl 30 which replaces it (sorta)</P> <P>And you get Alluvial Brand at LVL 29?? which will replace Earthly Brand so no need to get a spell you will have a replacement for in a few levels.</P> <P><SPAN class=time_text></SPAN> </P><p>Message Edited by Skyline GT-R34 on <span class=date_text>04-28-2005</span> <span class=time_text>04:33 PM</span>

<span>I chose Geotic Blessing at that point. I was into the whole buffing thing... but since I got the next buff that replaced it, I have regretted not getting the souped-up DD. At level 36, I had an adept3 made for Dust Blast. I'll be using it for a long time.</span><div></div>

Get Ganla's.  Im a 46 and I still use it as my DD.  So think about it, if you pick it, you'll be using it forever, and it is better than Dust blast adept 3.  Trust us, go for Ganlas.

<P>Ganla's Whipping Wind, definitely... I'm level 43 and still use this spell in every fight. It's the last DD spell you'll ever get.</P> <P>As stated before, the Hero only scales to 32... Used Soldier adept1 with no problems til I got Veteran. Soldier adept1 scales to level 36 (IIRC), so you've just got 1.5 levels of a subpar (but still decent) pet. If you get the adept3 Soldier, you don't even have to worry about that.</P> <P>The Bewildering Bolt will not affect mobs of levels 35 or higher, so it's basically the same as petrify... useless after about level 38.</P> <DIV>Geotic Blessing, as you've already noted, gets replaced very quickly, so it's another useless training choice.</DIV>

<DIV>[expletive ninja'd by Faarbot] and here i went and picked the tellurian hero. Oh well maybe they will give us another /respec later on. I made my conj after they gave people that choice. I hear u get an automatic /respec at lvl 40..any truth to this? And since i am almost lvl 30 what would u reccommend for the training spell at lvl 30?</DIV>

[Vulcaric0]

Another question that i have been beating myself over is...would picking tellurian hero over Ganla's whipping wind make or break a conj at higher lvls. I have struggled to get to lvl 29 where i am now and was wondering if i should just start over from scratch or continue on. Also what is the likely hood of another /respec ever being allowed? Any opinions greatly appriciated.

You get spiked rain and kliknik's bite to complete HO's (with the lightning symbol), and you can still upgrade your dust blast if you really have to use a dd (the dd components of both spells are fairly equivalent). Don't start over...that'd be silly thing to do over a free spell upgrade <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> </span><div></div>
