New Old Conjuror

Ok, don't put anything into the EoF pet lines. With unabate, those lines are completely redundant. Go down Stamina line in KoS. Then work down, I guess Unabate. After that, there are a few options, but I'd ork down Str in KoS to get the crits maxed out, and follow that up with whatever else you want, but that's probably AA 75-100. Remember, this is for soloing and casual play that I'd move down the lines like this.

As a solo'er, he'd put points into the Enhance: Earth Pet for the damage absorption newb =P

LOL I am a noob. Yeah, disregard my post about EOF Earth pet line. That's an ok one. <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> Shut it Kahna!

Yup.  Start with Enhance: Earth Pet, then the KOS STA line, followed by Unabate.  After that it's just personal preference.  My solo build uses the WIS line, plus Enhance: Blazing Avatar and Enhance: Vehement Gem (though I'm rethinking using the Gem AA after the recent change to it.)  I personally prefer using a solo build to a raid build (which I despise outside of raiding), I just can't find any excuse to justify doing so at the moment.

Im personally highly tempted to flip over to the Int line just cause it rankles me in some ways to see Necromancers trotting around with the Title Magician, thats our TITLE <img src="/smilies/69934afc394145350659cd7add244ca9.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> ...yeah its a tad silly but in EQ1 we were the magicians dangnabit.

When you guys suggest going down the STA line, do you mean going all the way down the line or just something like 4-4-8 like I've seen mentioned elsewhere?

Get the final abililty. It will stop your tank pet from getting any stuns or stifles or roots or any other CC spell a mob might have.

[DobyMT]

They are cumulative, but with Unabate, you are already sitting at a ~96-97% hit chance....the returns from the other lines aren't helpful

[DobyMT]

ACT is where most of that comes from. When I quit I deleted all of my old logs and parses and whatnot, but most other raiding Conjurors here can post a screenie of ACT and show you the hit %.

[Draco the Grey]

<p>Here's an example for you.  Most of my misses were from crush (autoattack) and pierce (dagger AA) so my spell hit rate was more like 99%.</p><p><img src="http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s87/Ryuujin76/Misc%20Linked%20Photos/EH-Parse.jpg" alt="" width="852" height="253" border="0" /></p>

<cite>you do know that you can get soe to restore the deleted character, right?</cite><blockquote><p>I have restarted my conjuror (I had one for 62 levels but deleted him a while ago, wish I hadn't but too late now)</p><p>I was wondering what would be a good progression on AA building.  I will primarily be soloing for the first many level like I did with my old one but so much has changed (I last played him over a year ago) I am not sure where to start.   What I am looking for is were to begin spending points and when to switch over to something else.</p><p>I know I will put the first 5 aa's into the EoF Earth pet line.  But after that I am at a loss.  Do I head for unabate? or head to KoS lines and which ones?</p><p>Any advice will be greatly appreciated.</p></blockquote>
