A Templars Feedback (Lvl 22)

[usaev]

<DIV>I just wanted to list some annoyances that Ive uncovered after putting many hours into this game since release.  Since I wasnt part of the Beta I was unaware of these minor flaws which should be fixed.  I pride myself in the job I do for my party and others in the realm.  If someone needs assistance or guidance, I would be more then willing to help.  Not being able to rez or heal members that have fallen on the field of battle is VERY aggrivating (You have to, disband -> join -> res -> heal -> disband -> join which can take several minutes... and doing this in SHold is deadly play).  The second things is avalibility of blunt weapons, being that we are a restricted class there is not a wide variety to choose from.  Now at lvl 22 I have been through all of the town zones, BB, SH, and TS and only seeing a hand full of valuable loot.  Very few wepons drop, even from named mobs which is worsend by the fact to get any of these you need to be in a party of 4-6 which lowers your chances to even get something you want if it does drop and your not real chummy with the person that wins it.  Where I screwed up is when I sold my WillowWood Maul way back at lvl 14 thinking I would have plenty of oppertunities along with way, already having a decent weapon that was doing more damage at the time(Coldwind Flail).  Well after doing a majority of the town quests and selling the useless trinkets for cash, it is all dried up and the weapon I should be using now, I cant recover.  Salvation came in the form of the "Armor Quest" that you get at lvl 20 which Ive been working on for about 4 days to get all 6 pieces which I cant use the legs and bp till a few more lvls (no biggy).   Lastly is the trade/barter system, I've gone as far as /ooc WTB, checking brokers daily, looking up quest weapons for lvl 20, and requesting crafters to make a decient weapon, but still nothing worth spending a copper of my four gold on.  I really enjoy this game and hope to see improvments to these annoyances in the coming months.  This game is not solo friendly past lvl 16-18ish and should not be sold as such.</DIV>

<DIV>In regards to only being able to rez in groups:</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>1.  This is TEMPORARY.  People were griefing by rezzing dead strangers back into hostile situations.  Once they implement an acceptance popup the grouping restriction will be removed.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>2.  Most class abilities are really meant for the character and his group or raid, not really for strangers - be glad that rez WAS useable outside groups and WILL be again, despite this temporary blip.</DIV>

<DIV>I'm lvl 23, and I solo all the time, at least 60% of it.  Granted I miss out on most uber loot drops, but I tradeskill (provisioner) and make plenty of cash to buy things so it works out.</DIV>

<DIV>Mind If I ask where and with what stratigies so I can know if I might be doing something counter productive?  On average it seems a killing group is more efficient and quicker exp wise then when I solo becuse im forced to snakes, bettles, bears, deers and wolfs(these are the only things solo with color and not ^ and ^^ tier).   The most difficult thing I can kill at this point are yellow shore crabs in TS, but I have to rest in between which takes a while(not even 1% exp per kill).  Is there a power regen? Ive seen the splinter item, where is that from and will it work?  Thanks for the replies guys, it only makes me a better cleric.</DIV>

<DIV>I have found one item for a blunt weapon in Stormhold...you can kill char and get it.  One hand morningstar, steel.  Very nice for lvl 20 orange to me at that level.  Maybe you can go for that one?  He was green to me with 2 ^^s at lvl 20.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Did this with a group of 6 but you can prolly get a tank a duo at your level.</DIV>
