Question: I assume CHA affects Pacify resist rate, is this true?

Question: Sometimes when Pacify is resisted a mob does not ago, what causes them to not agro?

Less chance of a "critical" failure I think the more charisma you have. Not worthwhile enough to be worth putting points into as a cleric, but definitely give it some thought for your enchanter [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

When you try to lull (or calm, pacify, etc) a mob, several things are checked:

- difference in level between you and the mob
- the mob's MR
- your CHA

We don't know the exact formula, but these all influence the mob's likelihood of resisting the spell. If the game determines that the lull will be resisted, it makes a second calculation to determine if it will be a "critical resist" (where the spell is resisted, and the mob aggros the caster). So, sometimes you get a resist and nothing happens, and sometimes the mob reacts angrily.

In my experience, level affects this a lot. Charisma has an effect, but you need a lot for it to be noticeable. Enchanters generally place a high priority on CHA; Clerics and other classes, much less so (but some Clerics still carry a set of +CHA gear for lulling).

Im a troll shaman and all my items are junk. some items bought from merchants, expensive and bad, giving me a few AC and 0 stats.

Innothule and grobb dont have quest to get some low lvl gear.

Im level 5, I cant kill yellows even spending all my mana, and whites take me a lot of time.

any suggestion?

Along the same lines as Rotenvok. I'm a level 10 Iksar warrior and i can't help but think I'm not doing it right still using a tarnished weapon at level 10. White cons can kill me if I get unlucky, and a yellow con would wipe the floor with me. Blue mobs still take a while to kill and can bring me down somewhat low.

I'm collecting bone chips and silk for when i can finally sell them and maybe get a decent weapon, but until then am i just gonna have to tough it out for a while?

As said above, go for blues. I think the froggies right outside guk should be close. Will also double up on not buying armour from the merchants. As a shammy, once you hit 29 you can have a steady plat supply in alchemy.

This game does not want you to play it. It will keep you in rags, kill you with random bullshit, and make you question your sanity.

I started a Troll SK, and reading bout the SK stats in project1999 wikia, it recommends to put ALL points on stamina.

Do you guys agree with this? SK's main roll is tanking... but, not a single point on INT? Im afraid i will have a lot of problems with mana pool.

This thread is being watched over by me...again...I promise.

What are a few good zones for a Level 13 Dark Elf Necro to level? (group, or solo)

From 10 to 13 I've mostly soloing in East Commonland, occasionally catching an Orc group. At this point, I'm starting to outgrow it though. I know Befallen is a good group thing for my level, but I can't ever seem to find group members. I've heard Unrest might be a good option, but I don't think I'm welcome in Dwarf territory, and the journey along the way seems pretty dangerous.
