Yes!! It really helps a lot. The velium you get off of orcs and crystalline spider silks have player value and I've banked a ton of them. Not really sure what it's worth yet [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] So make sure to have plenty of bank room.
I'm literally on a corpse run to TOFS right now. At 37 as a twink monk the lower level was super easy. Soloing 3 dogs at a time, no problem if you're too lazy to split.
The large undead gnoll key mob gave me a bit of a challenge since i was soloing 4 at once and he spawned after the 2nd shadow beast went down... he spawns after prior NPCs death like a jade reaver of VP worm... on top of that, he's a shaman and hits fairly hard, too.
I went up to the 2nd floor and got killed by Librarian almost immediately. I had probably 70% hp going in, no mend. Used my Staff of Battle to counter the Damage Shield, but she ended up finishing off my last 25% hp with a full-hitting nuke. Now I have to see if I can drag my corpse through the ceiling of level 1, because apparently your TOFS keys don't stay on the body.
I won't be fucking around on the second floor again for a good minute. Either I need higher level to resist more of the nukes, or I need a duo partner who has an interrupt/stun ability.
So I agree completely with what you said :-)
First floor is nice cause it's sectioned-off, so if your playstyle is short windows, I think ToFS is even better than Crystal Caverns in terms of "clear a room and go AFK til repops"
Pretty funny lunch break. |
Level 3,4+6 is really good exp too. Similar to floor 1, they are nice for some easy semi afk/semi i might slash exit at any moment XP. I leveled Twochain up a fair amount in ToFS. Floor 6 is actually a GREAT place to level once you're high enough. Pretty much unlimited single or double pull warrior mobs. Just don't get raped by the 750DD trap lol. Level 5 has some really nice drops, but a lot of the mobs are clumped up, so it kind of sucks to level there with the FD/Sneak nerf.
2nd floor is just fucking bonkers man. I saw a level 60 necro get RAAAPED there. Fuckers charmed his pet and nuked the ever living fuck out of him.... Said mob became the toughest level 33 to ever exist. An OP enchanter casting spells way out of it's level range... with a level 60 necro pet. I also wiped like 5 times in one night on that floor with a FULL GROUP of level 35+ish players, and 2-3 of us were fungi twinks.
Even still, it's entirely possible for me to die on that floor. At level 60. Their DS seems like it hits for fucking 75, and I swear to god they land spells on me more often than a level 60 dragon. I might have exaggerated that last sentence, but I feel like the OPness of Floor 2 ToFS needs to be exaggerated so everybody knows.
