Focus

Hello, i'm new to Monk and EQ2. How exactly do you level 'focus'? It's gone up once so far, and I have no idea how it did.<div></div>

Focus keeps you from being interrupted when you're casting spells, harvesting, or doing something with an interuptable timer.You can level it up by getting attacked while you're harvesting or by getting attacked when using things like the locator of the 999 year old port quest. It's really hard to level, so it's good that we don't really seem to need it at all.<div></div>

<DIV>I leveled it up quite easily while harvesting at previous poster said. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Most creatures uses DoTs, and harvesting after FD with DoT's makes the trick.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

Casting hex dolls while getting hit works too <div></div>

<P>Another good method is to agro a bunch of gray/green mobs and cast your gate...usually will get three updates, then just interupt it and rinse and repeat.</P> <P> </P> <P>Slapp</P>
