Twilight is good for lazy people and non ultimate min/maxers. Mostly the lazy and the "good enough"ers


It just annoys me to see people argue that it's the Best option when it merely what you have said - the "good enough" option, solid for lazy people like me.

Well pardon my ignorance, I am currently on hiatus due to college from DDO, I will be back in December.

I have 2 toons I am totally unsure of what 2 pick:

1 is a 1st life 32 pt helf 14 bard 6 FvS that uses scimitars(I don't run EE's currently, maybe down 2 the road).

plan was to TR into a 16 bard 2 fighter 2 rogue human in December, TWF, I was thinking a couple of Balizardes?

2nd toon is a 34 pt human 12 fighter 7 rogue 1 barb, TWF with khopeshes, now he has a nightmare was lucky & got one.

But those are nerfed now, so unsure in which direction I should go with him or what I will TR him into in December or I may use

the LR +20 heart....Anyways flame away! (hopefully my peeps on Orien will have some feedback for me, heh).

Cheers, thanks for any constructive helpful advice! Tongue! Smiley! Cheesy!

It's a matter of preference in the end, but you may want to consider looking at Celestia.

Ranger thing --> Celestia

Sorc --> Celstia

Cleric --> Celestia

FVS --> Twilight

Barb --> Cleaver

Rogue --> Pinion

Jugg --> Sireth

Monkexploitarcher(this need to be nerfed) --> Dont know

Art --> Dont know

Bard --> cleaver
  

Dear players,

The D&D rules you were familiar with were too simple to understand, so we're continuing our move away from them to needlessly confusing subsystems that will make your play experience less fun and invalidate old builds and loot. We hope you have fun working out what the fuck MRR, PRR, MP, SP, RP, CL, MCL and all the other bullshit we made up whilst drunk means.

Love,

People who don't know how to fix their own mistakes cleanly

A Cleaver and a Pinion on my melee TRing char.


Dunno what to do with my TRing caster I am just about to start my 3rd wiz life on this one and haven't really played the other caster classes so not sure what I should get since I do not plan to stick around at lvl 28.

The twilight seems like a good all round w/e weapon for 3 sorc lives and maybe 3 fvs lives but what it I want to swing a great axe or great sword?

If it's a TWF Ranger, then I'd suggest at least considering Pinion even if you don't end up using it often - pulling it out for Manyshot only is still entirely an reasonable use of a backpack space and Nightmare is still good even if it isn't nearly as good as it used to be.  Also, since Nightmare is better against trash than it is against bosses, you might consider the rainbow sword.  It can end up bugged by a variety of different spells and FoS has announced that they probably won't ever be able to fix that, but it's still a very nice weapon for bypassing DR.

Hmmm... now I wonder if I should have taken a Pinion for my rogue. Is it worth having without manyshot? I use a Spelltouched shuriken for ranging, it's pretty much replaced the few bows I used to carry.

The 'rainbow' sword would be Celestia. There was a graphical error a while back where it looked like a rainbow beam of light.

The rainbow sword is Celestia and I just couldn't remember its name because I was having critical brain failure from low blood sugar.  1 Dr Pepper and a Payday and a Wawa pretzel later and I'm able to communicate with humans again!  Smiley

I wouldn't necessarily respec for anything in CitW - I just mentioned that because it's a DR breaker and that's handy to have if you are fighting things that aren't vulnerable to Nightmare's effects.

I play 5 toons and none of them needs more Citw weapons. All have 40-60 completions... So I have what they need Sad

Ty turbine for fucking up my DQ and FOT 20th completions and giving me Citw weapons in return...

I guess they can't please everyone, well 10 comms each for toons with low bank space, the rest I'm saving. May TR to something different.
  

None of this shit really matters.

CiTW loot items are the true 'welfare epics' since everyone in the game got them for free simply by double clicking a button.

'Free to win?'  did that make Chai's head explode?
