I would like something that makes me want to solo again rather than just not playing. Right now, I check if my group is online, if not, I log off and do something else.  I've done my tradeskilling as much as I can stand (3 in T6) and soloing just isnt fun or rewarding.<div></div>

[LordNikonIII]

   Humm along the lines of solo'ing I would like to see our STR = our damage output, When Im soloing I have like 340 STR 380 Wis and 110 int and it still takes me forever to kill something.  I can solo alot of things but there is a huge chance that 2 game days could pass.  I also would like to see the T7 gear have more INT on it, since all the damage spells we have hit harder with increased INT. Now for while Im raiding wish list.... Some type of mana tap .... A reactive ward or heal with no side effect... I love topur but it has very specific use because of the side effects.  I would also like to provide as many HP's as the defiler.ok last and not least fun spell's I want to be able to turn toons into bears..... or something or drop rocks on peoples heads something cool.Lord NikinLvl 60 Dark Elf Mystic of MistmooreLords of the Triple Moons<div></div>

However, there seems to be severe disparity in terms of soloing ability. Let me give one example.I was finishing the Court of Truth: Sphinx Hunt quest last night -- where at  the end you have to kill a level 55^^^ sphinx.  I know from all experience that I couldn't do this solo even though I am 56.  The problem here is that on ogaming.com others have posted being able to solo it at lower 50s, i.e. ranger and conjurer.  I have two fabled items, mostly T6 gear, T6 hex dolls, T6 imbued pearl ring, Scepter of Rahotep and Pearl Orb.  Even within 10 levels I still have hard time soloing ^^^ mobs -- even when they turn grey. Right now it seems I have to be about 20 levels before they can't do anything to me.I understand that priests are not a DPS class, but at 10 levels shouldn't I have the *ability* to easily solo content that others can solo when it's 2 levels *above* them.</span><div></div>

[tebion]

give us the same density of shadowmen-type mobs as clerics have with undead in DoF right now (no clue about druids, if they are in the same boat give them more elementals, too <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />)i mean, only one mob where we get additional damage, who is in the top floor of PP, is a bit ridiculous, hehe<div></div>

[Banditman]

Mystics can solo single ^^ Heroics (blue).  It's a hard fight, but it can be done.  I once solo'ed a white ^^ Heroic, finishing with no power and about 100 HP.

<div></div><p>A good test of your "mettle" is solo'ing the Miraguls instance in Everfrost.  There are 2 Triple Up Green to 60 mobs in there.  I believe those are about the limit to Mystic soloing.</p><p>It really is a good test of your solo abilities.</p>

<div></div>I agree with solo friendly zones and of course I would like to see cannabalize

[Nilgiris]

<div>I'm still building up my Mystic. I'm 48 but still need to get better gear etc... but I can solo an even con Heroic ^ . I find most people saying that Mystic's can't solo but I would beg to differ. Now... try me (at my current gear & stat) against a Green ^^^ and I wouldn't even consider it, but I put that down atm to the fact that I know I need to get better gear before I even try it.</div>

In terms of soloing I'm a bit concerned with new Expansion and the Achievement system.  One of the ways to get more is to eliminate boss mobs. Boss mobs are typically ^^^ heroics or similar with groups. There is no way we can do that solo until they are grey.  Of course this still an assumption of the Achievement system.<div></div>

[Terq]

<div></div><blockquote><hr>ModPlod wrote:<div></div><p> And yes I have pretty decent intel / wiz.</p><hr></blockquote>I know at one time they were going to do some kind of funky int-wis comparison of the caster/target.  I thought that got scrapped though.  Anyone have anything else on this?I found that there are some mobs (even orange ones) that I can fully dubuff.  However, for the life of me, I can't land anything on those stupid slime cube trap mobs in Ahk Aken.   After about the 5th resist, I quit trying, since they are dead anyhow. 

[Eepop]

They did scrap the comparison, but...INT still adds to spell damageWIS still adds to power for priestsmaking them both important stats for a priest.<div></div>

[Terq]

<div>The post was in response to resist rates.  I am well aware of the how little added intellegence and/or strength actually improves our DPS.</div><div> </div><div>If they scrapped that comparison, then I still believe that adding intellegence does such a miniscule amount of increased damage that is not worth bothering with.  Multiply that tidbit by 1000 if you are raiding.  I think that I stated in response to another thread that improving your intellegence by over 100 points has an equivalent DPS increase of one more DOT tic.  Increasing your spell quality will have a much larger impact on your DPS than will increasing your intellegence.</div>

[Eepop]

Relax, I completely agree.  My int is less than 100.  I was just saying why ModPlod had made it a point to say that he/she has a good int and wis.<div></div>

[Terq]

<div>Sorry to get a bit testy. </div><div> </div><div>Yeah, I saw where he said that he had decent int., but that seemed like it was in regards to the resist rate.  That is why I brought up the wis/int comparison thing.  I thought that idea had been scrapped, but wanted to confirm it.  Decreased resists would have been the only reason that I would bother raising my int., since IMO intellegence has a very negligible effect on our DPS. </div>

[Prismata]

<div></div><div></div><p>I would like an encounter-only mez/stun line in addition to the AOE mez...and while we're at it why not a shorter refresh timer? In close quarters trying to reduce hate with an AOE stun causes more problems than it solves. The current line seems to be useful to buy a little time to get out of harm's way when what I need is just a little breathing room to cast a ward or refresh slow and let my partner grab aggro.</p><p>As for the keening haze "improvement" I'd rather have it last longer than cast faster.</p><p>Message Edited by Prismata on <span class="date_text">02-02-2006</span><span class="time_text">12:50 PM</span></p>
