Seems like you're suggesting this person who wants to "be doing as much charm killing as I can" do something other than charming.
There are Bats in the Warrens, so you are incorrect there.

aren't there rats and bats in warrens at least?
?

I think mighty bear paw may count too. I'm sure I did him on a shaman long ago?

edit:

Yea so frenzied rat is like level 10, the big bats are like level 15, then there is a bit of a pause, with bear paw being 24 (conveniently the upper limit of befriend).

Yet another misrepresentation of what I've said. You do that often as well. I never said I dislike people suggesting LoIO.

I already rebutted this point earlier. Loramin probably didn't read it:

All nuance is lost on Loramin. He probably didn't read the second part of the second sentence, as he misreads or skips what I post often:

You can also see he is embarassed that he was called out for starting this back and forth:

https://www.project1999.com/forums/s...&postcount=273

He ignored me pointing out that fact. He blames me for his random attack on me first. The guy just can't take responsibility for his actions.

Ah, so there are! So are you recommending that a druid start charming in the Warrens instead of EK or LoIO? What's the pitch? Seems cramped compared to the outdoor zones.

Reread the thread please. You've made a habit of not reading what people post, and then ask the same questions repeatedly.

What nuance? You literally wrote "I never said I dislike people suggesting LoIO."

You also, repeatedly, throughout this thread, expressed that you think it's a bad idea for a new druid to farm the ring ... in LOIO.

Qualifying that with "unless they have some fetish with not buying gear" (ie. "unless they prefer farming their own items over efficiency") doesn't change your advice at all; it just adds a meaningless qualifier.

I'll take that as a concession that you don't have an argument for any alternatives to either EK or LoIO for a charming druid.

Please quote me where I said it was specifically a bad idea, or that I dislike people suggesting LoIO.

Doesn't say it's a bad idea. That is your poor reading comprehension at play. Read the bold text.

It doesn't say:

Quote:

That is your delusional interpretation. Your delusional version of DSM that lives rent free in your head is clearly warping how you read my posts.

I made my point about the Warrens already in the thread. You didn't read it, and are now acting silly. You can believe whatever nonsense you wish. It doesn't make you look good, or change the fact that I explained my position on the Warrens already in this thread. As usual, you didn't read it and are now asking the same questions on repeat.

You added a qualifier, "unless they prefer farming their own items over efficiency". 99+% of P99 players don't prefer farming their own items over efficiency (pretty much just the solo self-found folks).

That means you added a meaningless qualifier. It's like saying, "I hate black people ... except the ones with at least 25% white blood". With or without that qualifier, you're still a racist.

Likewise here, you've spent pages of this thread arguing against farming the ring. Adding one meaningless qualifier, that impacts <1% of the population, to just one quote of your's, doesn't change that core fact.

(It's also worth noting that you spent pages arguing against the ring's value, and clearly demonstrating that you didn't understand it, which no doubt led to your other false conclusion about it not being worth farming.)
