I have to give Lhynn some credit; he snuck up and grabbed our soul stones right under that bitch slave lord's nose and ran them back to the shrine like a champ. God damn AOE attack of hers was vicious.

The boss AoE isnt insta death, a good tank can take it on. You just need decent physical sheltering and a healer.

I chose bastard swords, btw, because as of one of the previous updates they, even when equipped with a shield, do glancing blows. Khopeshes do not. Dwarven axes do now, too, but their crit range is 20/x3 only and the selection of those on the AH is paltry compared to bastard swords.

I immediately bought a +3 with 2d6 shocking and 5d6 extra on a crit. It's a masterwork, too. Paid 14K PP.

Moar kills incoming.

Maybe survivable if you are tr with twink gear. Watched videos of epic run through the entire chain by party of tr characters with gear and looked like a stroll through korthos and harbor quests except for the final boss fight which looked like Painalfest 2016.

I remember barbarians back when the game first went freemium having insane amounts of hit points but also remember them dropping fast so I never stuck with them. Things have changed with DDO plenty since then. Plenty of builds to be found but never know how viable any of them are with the way updates and changes to enhancement trees. As far as last night goes no one could take the attack. Maybe some of the people from the uber guilds we were with on the raid could have survived the bitches blast but then again they are clearly tr with buffs and live breath and shit DDO.

PRR at that level can reduce damage to around 60%, that amount of damage deducted would make it survivable by almost anyone.

you are losing out on 35% damage by going bastard swords and gaining absolutely nothing. Really going out of your way to gimp yourself old man.

How easy is it to find items that would boost prr and mrr at our level?
Very hard beyond maybe 15.
which is like 12% damage. Most of it comes from sacred defender enchancements which im betting crispy hasnt speced into because he insists on using that retarded small door on his arm.

That small door has consistently kept me off the top of the number of times killed list the entire time we've been playing together, Lhynn.

I'd suggest you worry more about your build than mine, since you are usually near or at the top of that list every time.

P.S. You just validated Xorphitus' argument without even realizing it.

The only reason im getting killed more than you do is that no monster is actually interested in hitting you crispy. They go right past you and aim to get me because im hurting them more. Also im keeping the team alive by basically incapacitating 2-3 enemies every time i cast a spell, and sometimes even entire hordes with web.
