Casters are not supposed to be doing damage, it's like a keyboard player in a metal band. Doesn't matter how you groove out on stage, your not supposed to be cooler than the bass player. It's rough, but that's the DDO heirarchy. I'm going to bluesky to lodge an informal whine about it, and if I...

I'm missing a few iconics and a few archetypes, but I gots the rest done. On a sorc currently, only 1950~ outside reaper. I have failed.

What's the deal with 22 points in DD trees? Instead of 20 alchemist? 3 max dodge 20 prr 10 amp? I don't get it. I'm also on the doing damage with spells is no longer working, I'm considering going with artificer for similar reasons to your alchemist build. Sad days.

Should be easy to check if anyone has warlock in epics. If the primal ticks on 2 that aint bad. Another option is the shiradi stance, those do proc but they can feel mixed.

Weapon immune monsters is the solution!

If that's the void lore goggles then yes I nabbed em. But they don't seem that great. I pulled the wizards tower rat maze void lore club same day. Probably somewhere in the 50s of tries for that club. Typically r3/4

Suffa melee! You earned it. Tell me more about how uniquely skilled melee requires the player to be. How hard and dangerous it is. Suffa, suffa melee! And I don't care a tiny bit if range becomes over powered. Take all the excess and power from melee and just pile it on range. Casters are...

Ooh, about that, we're going to need to reschedule the down time.

I was really hoping for an aug reward this last pass through... nope. Ransacked 4 quests lookin for rare loots. R3-5 every run got skunked, very frustrating, had a 10% finding elixir going. Not fun.

Meaning they stack with elders style "artifact spell crit" ?? This is potentially exciting for my gears. I have a nice gem with elders and I'm not sure if the vecna set that give spell crit is the same. Why is it always obtuse? Does it stack with Leg Vol's influence?

I think I have read the newish solar spell crit augment stacks with the universal(if thats what it is) artifact spell crit set bonuses. Is that accurate? Is the new spell crit augment replacing the need for legacy set specific spell crit?

Why not both?

All new races are elves. Did you get memo? You get an elf, and you get elf, and you get an elf...

Elf Elf Elf, elf elf elf. We need another elf!

I was thinking about the sneak dice stuff, and tabaxi is a really nice race all around. Very easy to grab 2 sneak dice from tabaxi among other goodies. There is a card curse with +2 sneak dice also. Card, race, shadow dancer, artifact... that's 14, not terrible I guess? Those are pretty...

I didn't see drow racial or curse mentioned. That's 2 & 2. I've done a bit of imbue aura lock builds. I always wanted more out of them. I tried an elf race with 2 level of rogue and got +7 imbue with an 18/2 split. I don't know the trade off points where 3 imbue is worth ?? Spell power etc. I...

Am I off base or is 10d6 with 1000 force spell power reasonably 385 bane damage? This seems not very good.

AoTS, hehe, its a "caster" so... I did three Eladrins, but only one chaosmancer. I liked tiefling a few years ago, but I don't recall how well the immunity stripping works. If you were going to build a fire caster would you go for chaosmancer(ignore the +1 heart cost in your assessment please)...

Sorry buddy. I hate that feeling, that a baked into the game feature is meant to be poor and subpar. Somehow that is best practices and makes sense. Casters are not supposed to contribute meaningful damage, up to the point that their exclusion is a social good in a group/raid setting. Stuff...

I made a tanky healer cc'er Aots that ran r4s solo pretty well. But the clearing time didnt feel great so I squirreled over to another doofy build. Fiend shape gets 200% spell power for one minute with 17 blast d8, 20 pact d6~ those are pretty weak base numbers. I think the build needs moar...
