Traveler's Boots a viable alternative to JBoots?

[Taiku]

Blood of the wolf pots are 10 charges of 36 minute SoW (34%-55% movement speed) So 360 minutes (6 hours) of spirit of wolf for 100p

Traveler's boots speed is 35%, and only lasts 18 minutes, so you have to recast more often and don't make as much space away from mobs during quadding.

For the same price (not counting time invested buying the potions) you could have 300 hours of nearly double the speed. And also support your local alchemy business!

This isn't including the possibility of recharging the single charge pots with a full one (if that even is cost effective), and also that you don't have to buy more than you need, you might go through 10 potions before realizing you DO want the jboots and go for them, once you get traveler's boots they are useless if you ever want to get the jboots.

No guilds control any camp in game. AC isn't that hard(can get lucky if u have ranger/bard friend for SRO one) but the one in OOT its just a list you go sit out and when its ur turn. just kill Ph..

Side note don't be afraid of paying 5-6k for MQ. If a player tries to rip you off. /Petition Its a bannable offense. And clearly tell them that your opening a petition. (just don't get a MQ by someone below lvl 35 bc thats probably a red flag)

And yes you can't get on the list at lvl 20. If you can't solo(or have a group) keeping PH down you can't claim camp. You need to focus on leveling or just paying the plat(worth it, just like OT hammer is worth it) Jboots on a wizzy is super amazing with gflux staff.

Jboots. Hit 4 mobs with Gflux staff, start kite, and win spaming snare/staff, then nuke/staff.

Wait...what? If I want to sell you a plain old rusty dagger for 100pp, that's my prerogative. If you want to buy said plain old rusty dagger for 100pp that's yours. The owner sets the price. You can take it, leave it or try and bargain with them. You'd be filling 100's of petitions per day with the ripoff prices people charge for stuff in EC, and to no result.

Now if I tell you plain old rusty dagger is a special piece needed for a quest or whatnot (knowing that it isn't) and still trying to pass it off as such, then I have defrauded you which is covered in the PNP.

Honestly, sow is more handy, especially once Velious comes out.

I have jboots on my blue wiz and often find myself using sow instead. Jboots are good panic button though. Not sure if Tboots are as adept for that use.

[Bardp1999]

I've done 10+ MQs for Jboots, some as buyer and some as seller, and I have never seen it mess up nor have i even heard from any of my elf pals of the MQ messing up. Hasten appears to be one of the safer MQs IMO.

At level 20 they are not really feasible for you to get anyhow. Either wait till 45+ to camp yourself or 50+ where you can afford the MQ (I had about 30k by 55 on my shaman).

Quadding at 34 probably means OT, and in OT you can usually get Druid SoW pretty easily anyway because of all the porting going on. When you graduate to Spirocs in OOT is when you start needing SoW.

[starkind]

if your a wizard and ur serious drop the plat on the jboots

if not buy some sow pots and solo lvl and get them later

but quadding on a wiz without boots and staff is kinda dumb, any other class i'd say dont even bother

btw both mq's should be super afordable by lvl 34 when u rly wnat to start quaddding and stuff anyway

if u dont already have a lvl 60 druid in full planar

For enchanters and wizards, never settle for trav boots
You will need instant speed. For an opposite example clerics, monks, and SKs having a cast time won't hurt you as often as you have easy disengages, or do not kite or deal with surprises like that

[cd288]

IMO the instant cast aspect is really only important if you don’t have another Insta clicky that can reset your GCD as a caster. Otherwise not worth the extra 1k for the JBoots MQ if you don’t have tons of plat to spare
