Title: Splitpaw Saga - how instancing is supposed to work Post by: shiznitz on July 06, 2005, 09:40:04 AM Nailed it. That's what SOE did with the latest adventure pack (and they should have at $7.99 - included with Station Access.) I hesitantly suggest that this adventure pack is worth re-subbing for. It scales very well based on solo or group. The loot in interesting. The gnolls look cool. The caves look cool.
Maybe it is just relief at something new to do in EQ2. Title: Re: Splitpaw Saga - how instancing is supposed to work Post by: WindupAtheist on July 06, 2005, 10:11:12 AM Why the hell are you playing EQ2?
Title: Re: Splitpaw Saga - how instancing is supposed to work Post by: kaid on July 06, 2005, 10:43:25 AM There are some really freaking odd but interesting instances in splitpaw. The whole harclavs (god mode) adventure is really wild. I found out the hard way if you are a cloth caster no matter how buffed you are get enough groups of heroic mobs on you and you can still die.
They did a good job on it and its pretty fun. kaid Title: Re: Splitpaw Saga - how instancing is supposed to work Post by: UD_Delt on July 11, 2005, 06:31:20 AM I second the Harclave instance. Although I imagine it will be nerfed soon.
Like Kaid said, once you complete the quest it basically puts up in God Mode. The buff is a +5000ish hp & power +1000 pre tick regen, damage shield, and melee proc. I've been doing the instance with my 43 Swashbuckler and soloing level 51&52 heroic encounters. If I do the instance with vitality I gain about 40% exp during a 1.5 - 2 hour clear. As well as anywhere from 20-50g. My level 22 Conjurerer usually gains a full level each clear.

I take it every single player anywhere near the level requirement is doing that and nothing else.

I take it every single player anywhere near the level requirement is doing that and nothing else. Well there really is no level requirement other than level 20. There also is a 2.5 hour lockout on it. I'm also not sure how a class without invis would manage to do it as I sneak past all of the beginning mobs to skip straight to the uber buff.

Certainly doable, but it is enough to make it not something one does every night.
