The RE2 earring is the single best self-power proc you can easily obtain. Per proc it restores 685 power unless the proc happens to get overwritten on itself.

Once you have the RE2 ear you can get away without using phantom handles unless the fight involves pow drains.

The Fungus Spore out of Guk:HoF is a beast for power regen. Kluzen's slashing weapon is also solid if you do VP.

Well I picked up 2 phantom handles and even that has made a noticeable difference.

The RE2 collection is very expensive to obtain. Some 125pp on my server (Nagafen).

I'll keep an eye out for that still though. Since I definitely still run out. With a bard I seem to do fine now though. Whereas before even a bard didn't make things good enough.

There are some things you can't afford, for everything else theirs a Bruiser.

Man - how you manage to farm shinies in RE2 is beyond me... seems like every shiny is sitting at the ankles of 4 mobs all chained together... good lord that zone is far more complicated to farm that I was hoping!

I noticed most shinies seem to be somewhat deep into the zone as well. Bringing a grp? Ok - cake... Solo? LOL massacre...

I'm gonna have to make a video explaining how you use FD to get shinies that are right on top of a mob.

proper farming techniques include using your tsunami while harvesting in the middle of a group.
Learning how to leash adds so they give you more time to harvest.
Proper use of fear/mezz.
Some people are really good at running through zones by using the jump boots and fake death floating across the rooms.

RE2 is kinda easy to farm lol, spring boots + FD makes it a cake to walk through. And if the shiney is by mobs, pop tsunami, close mind, stone deaf, and inner focus if need be. Also you can pop chi to collect them twice as fast.

Usually when I start the zone I run past the first mobs, then up the pathway past the running goblins then right before I turn right and run into the next named ( as I'm running tho, don't stop ) I pop in this order : Chi, close mind, AA tsunami, stone deaf. Then I run past named jump, and use FD + boots to float past the entire birdge, about mid float I get up from FD, and continue running.

All your shit should still be up, but at this time I watch close mind and cancel it before chi wears off, now as I'm running into the second room I pop my myth tsunami and inner focus, it's important to pop inner focus because the named seems to land his 50% hp hit whether u have a tsunami up or not.

After I run/FD past the second named's room it's pretty much cake walk because all you do is run jump FD and you'll be able to go anywhere lol.

Suppose I should have specified that I'm not a complete gimp I can FD farm perfectly fine, but I dont have ETIHER of the tsunami's that brusiers get just yet... need a few more kills for my mythical and am only up to about 145 AA's, so still need a good 25 or so more before I can buy the AA version.

That said - sure, with the 2 tsunami's and popping Chi - absolutely doable. Was just stating that without the 20 seconds worth of invulnerablity, its a bit dicey.

That is when you have to use FD to reset the encounter. Unless it's one of those encounters where the mobs disappear and instantly reset, you can do it. Do this:

Aggro them, hit and AoE or something like that, run them back a bit, then jump towards the shiny, and hit FD and then X immediatley and start harvesting.
The mobs will reset, and won't aggro you again until you finish havesting. then just run away and hit self heal if needed, and FD again.
