Firepot bound chars in velious??

[uygi]

I'm one of the only melee bound at firepots. Leveling up when Kunark was new it was useful for some CRs, though now I only use to go shopping (die, buy peridots/pearls, take rez) or run back to PoFear after eating a DT to avoid rez effects. I honestly don't know if my firepot bind is worth anything extra on the open market, as there are so few. If money is no object and you can buy gate potions whenever you want then it's a pretty awesome bind point. At the very least it makes me pretty unique; only 2 non-TMO melees got lockets before TD binding was removed, and the other was a Paladin I haven't seen for over 2 years.

I figure that for the early-ish Velious firepot bind is pretty cool, because TLs come into play, letting me "gate" and I can always click a pot to go stick a Thurg gate potion into a kiln and get to Thurgadin. I imagine I'll bind in PoM later, as many raiders will.

There are non-locket ways for melee to bind in PoM if you can find a friend with very good timing. Skyshrine and Kael are very good bind points though. I think you can bind anywhere in Kael at first. It eventually gets nerfed to bank only which means you probably only want to bind there if you aren't KOS.

This worked on live. I haven't tested it here yet, but it's how we bound melee in PoM on Innoruuk since Lockets were basically non-existent.

Basically, you need to die in a place and get rezzed. You need to have bind affinity timed so that when you accept rez, bind is about to hit. Soulbinders made it a ton easier to do, but it's still doable without them - just difficult. As an enchanter, I do this with clarity on rezzes and still only manage to get it about half the time.

Rez/Bind trick wont work here.

all the invis pullers on this server should be able to time that out NP
