Xegonite but its crap, not worth the money. Do instance runs and hope you get some treasured - or fabled - drops. If you have lots of spare cash lying around then by all means buy xegonite but if money is tight I'd recommend you hold out for dropped loot.<p>Message Edited by Aonach on <span class=date_text>07-11-2006</span> <span class=time_text>01:22 PM</span>

<DIV>Xegonite is not garbage and the better stats will serve you nicely til you can get the legendary/fabled drops rockin.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>That said if you don't have the cash don't sweat it the old cobalt gear has very similar mit so your ok there if you cant afford the upgrade.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>The key to gear in KoS is... </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>hit Blackscale and get yourself a Curiass of Protection</DIV> <DIV>Get into the Den of the Devourer and get Light and Dark Chitin Rings</DIV> <DIV>Do the Claymore Quests</DIV> <DIV>Kill the dragons In PoA for Awakened Scalelord gear.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Raid the Labs for relic/Doomrage gear</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

<P>you could do VERY well for yourself with a 3 group raid of courts or gates. granted its T6, but I'm still wearing some of it and tanking labs with no problem whatsoever</P> <P>Derakorr the Vindicator</P> <P>   <Pandemonium></P>

<P>Keep in mind, you can't wear Xegonite until level 62 (yeah, nerf the rare crafted and then make the level requirements higher! Makes sense to me.</P> <P>Not.)</P> <P>The upside is Xegonite is 'cheap', sells for under a plat on my server so it's a relatively inexpensive upgrade if you can find an armorer willing to make it for you. This <A href="http://eqiiforums.station.sony.com/eq2/board/message?board.id=combat&message.id=108738" target=_blank>thread</A> however leaves me wondering if it might be worth the trouble of upgrading.</P> <P>While I'm at it, any advice on equipment and where to get it for those of us who don't group or raid? (I duo almost exclusively)</P> <P>I duo with a fury and we can take on most named mobs -1 level (with exceptions, some named mobs are just brutal.) We've done nearly all the instances in DoF/PoF and haven't seen any Master chests at all, so while we've built up some cash, our loot luck has been horrid. TIA.</P>

Hi, I've been away from the game for the last few months and this is one of the main reasons. I don't raid and only group with a small number of people. Because of which I haven't seen any viable armour upgrades. Unless I can magically conjur 60 plat for a single piece of armour from the broker... /sigh I'm stuck with Cobalt on Xeg... And Xeg aint gonna happen. This may be a dumb question but where do the Claymore quests start and what type of stats are we looking at on the armour pieces. I was severlely disappointed with the stance SoE took to do with armour upgrades for tanks in KoS. I keep seeing ok stuff with WIS and INT on it but nothing with good Mit and str/sta/agi. Please help. I want to start playing EQ2 again but if my only upgrade appears to be a downgrade (I'm looking at you Xeg armour!) I think it's time to move onto a game that allows soloers and small groups to do well... WHICH I DON'T WANT TO DO! <div></div>

<P>If your group of friends are serious and decent players you can do fine.</P> <P>Like I said before </P> <P>Den , Blackscale, PoA are all single group content with some very nice gear. If you put the time in you can get some sweet armor.</P> <P>Oh and Halls of Fate even has some nice stuff, Boots off Sothis and a nice BP off Doom Lord Septimus (when he's not being a stingy bastage)</P> <P>I heard the table mob drops shoulders but havent seen em.</P> <P>But they arent just handing it out. You gotta work for it.</P> <P> </P>
