KC Update - Page 2

OK sorry I didn't type ornate instead of exquisite...
I obviously didn't mean 2 masters.

Could be that exp isn't quite on par with other dungeons because the difficulty of mobs vs gear and levels, not to mention ROK seems to be an overall shift in greater difficulty for mobs. Less kills per hour plus no bonuses to make up for it.

Regarding the soloing thing...wasn't sure if coercers were still capable of soloing heroic content in T8, which was why I put in the <?>. Have certainly known coercers to solo otherwise difficult content pre-ROK.

I spent an hour or 2 there last night on my troub. The xp was decent, about .2% per kill. You just can't pull as fast as you used to. The overall buffage of mobs in RoK is what's killing grind xp.

We found 1 named (guy by the trainees) and it dropped wood. Woot. I thought they fixed that shit.

They can still drop wood chests, but at a rarer rate than was happening before. I'm asking some our item guys to look at the tables in here, to make sure they are working right.

not KC related, but Sebilis also had a huge xp boost, for you crawlers out there.

Just ran Chelsith (apart from the guy, but including one named which isn't always there), and a contested heroic named in Jarsath, and only got wood.

Zira · 12-18-2007, 11:00 PM

Yeah, Chelsith drops far too much wood. Who thought it was a good idea that random named (those that are only sometiems up) should drop wood.

Seriously, if you are lucky to get named up (usually only see 2 of the random named up), getting wood is a slap in the face.

And according to lootdb.com, there are no fabled drops in the whole zone EverQuest II LootDB | Zone Info - Chelsith - EQ2 item database with mob and zone information? That's pretty crappy.

The reason chelsith drops so much wood is because some of the legendary drops in there are fucking amazing and should be rare as fuck (like nizara sash)

I was in KC the other day, and at level 75, I was getting about .2-.3 off most kills, which seems pretty good to me.
