And even THEN, it still is only possible if nobody else is competing for the 4 mobs you need.

That "trivializes leveling" about as much as a ZEM in befallen does. Which is not at all, because it only works with a bunch of provisos and only for a minority of players.


AKA like I said, it's basically no different than paying for power level except it isn't even a plat sink.
How about specs? scythes + gems probably cover the cost if not turn a profit, rarely camped in OOT, vendor not far away. I've seen a ranger clean shit up and level off them into the high 40's with zero effort required. I suppose we can just leave it in place because it doesn't trivialize end game content like the hoops do. but that's a different discussion.

This almost feels like a gun control debate.

Seems like killing level 40 mobs with Red Wood Wands would take more effort than killing them normally would.

5 or so wands all instant cast 76 dmg 4 target aoe nuke with 5 charges = 4 dead spectres in about 1 min.

30p to recharge them. specs drop 10p scythes fairly often + gems and words so I imagine you'd break even if not profit depending on gem drops. 6min respawn and you spent zero mana too.

How is swapping in and out 5 wands and running to a vendor that you can recharge on after every kill while somehow keeping your camp easier than just root rotting mobs while mostly afk?

ya i seen that ranger in oot doing that when i went to check the gargs on the undead island. i was wondering wtf was going on, how was a ranger was quad kiting instant nuking down the specs in seconds.

being creative i guess, idk i'll leave the discussion on if that type of stuff should be left in to yall but it certainly made me raise an eyebrow.

i dont get the power gaming in this old ass game, but people probably dont always understand my enjoyments from the game either

They are Any slot so you can just leave them in bags slots, make hotkey and spam 1,2,3,4,5. No swapping is needed.

quadding 4 for zero mana is clearly more efficient and faster than root rotting.

Still waiting for my classic necro pet delay mods from wielding weapons.

Selectively classic.
