As was said. Port, Manastone, Gate. Makes MS not super useless. The other thing is, torpor will always drop. Manastones not so much.

also worth to note once you scribed torpor you have it forever, you can sell the manastone at any point [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

There is the fact that manastones are selling for less now than they have in a year+ (I think), though, and that torpor is more expensive than ever.

This is true but nonetheless they are still no longer dropping, who knows the less of them there eventually becomes they may rise again.

If you're soloing for loot:

Druid can solo lodi (with charm). Shaman cannot.

There's not a ton of other mobs (that are worth killing) which a non-torpor shaman will be able to solo that a druid can't. Maybe some things in Kael or Skyshrine or possibly Velks

Overall: Shaman

does it have to be that other name turtle or are there several options...

Named overpowered turtle. Everything else would be demolished.

I charmed him a few times when I was messing around with my enchanter on eqmac who was level 45ish. He was resistant, but not nearly like those zam reports claimed.

Regardless, A druid would need to be quite lucky to keep him charmed and not die to lodi.

Edit: That alla thread made me realize he's basically 100% mr except for dire charm. I realized that I didn't charm Coroduth. I charmed Keref Spiritspear, who can do most of the work against lodi.

Druid shouldn't be able to take lodi out.

Corudoth level 5, Shaman can charm him too.
