Yeah he’s pvp tagged so he can’t be

Legitimately impressive. Eat your heart out, gnoll scroll guy.

Op could always drop pvp flag and go raider. But doesn't seem like their thing.

I appluad op for limiting themselves.

I think you eventually end up doing a lot of snare kiting with poison and archery. Its also sometimes viable to use NPC on NPC combat to weaken something enough you can finish it, but the best examples I've used for that are in Velious, so would have to think if there's a good old world spot for that.

You are the coolest dude, Yrehcra. Got dam.

At 50, they'd need to get really lucky on an AC pop to get Jboots. But it seems like snaring the enemy & self-Jbooting with the levi cloak might f work for bow kiting and jousting?

Canyoneer Pike would be absolutely vital for any non-kiting options or to finish something off. It's the only slow-proccing weapon I can think of that a SSF could get.

I'm not sure a SSF war could get a Deadwood Stave. I don't know that the Warders pop anywhere that's single-pullable, and I don't know if a SSF war could handle 2-3 mid-30's healing mobs at once. I don't know of another heal-proc weapon, though.

If they were a big race, Weighted Axe might actually be a jousting option, but for Dark Elf that's a no-go....

How badly was Instill Doubt nerfed? I soloed a Rogue really quickly with that until about 50 or so at which point I just bought Chardok AOE spots since I was just trying to get a raid alt leveled up. I haven't used it since the nerf though.

Wouldn't really need the jboots if they had a snaring weapon. Even if you have bad luck with the proc on something like the glaive, just strafe running should keep you out of combat assuming you don't foolishly try to fight mobs with a boosted movement speed. Try to focus on mobs that run at low life so you can easily finish them off when they get low instead of bow kiting. real problem is getting all the arrows... I'd imagine it would be a giant PITA.

This is one of the coolest things i've come across in eq classic... super impressed. If you have any advice on SSF, or other threads anyone could recommend, I'm pretty hyped on this idea. I'm thinking of doing it /w a ranger.
