Is the clinging darkness necklace quest working here for Inny follower clerics? I think it worked for Inny follower shams too?

yeah wiz/mag doesn't seem like it would be great and mag mag would be better but it still is an efficient combo at higher levels. Watching a earth or fire pet tank the mob to 50 percent or so and then having the mag and wizard cast there nukes can burn down mobs EASILY. The mage having malosi helps out the wizard as well. Yeah your gunna have some down time to med of course but they really can take a mob down easily before any other class combo imo unless its a high MR mob tho.

Temp flux staff except on planar+ mobs seemed to be enough, malise is kinda pricey on mana.

yeah when I played with my bro I would snare the mob and just constantly click the flux staff to get aggro and kite it around while my bros pet would destroy most of it. It works pretty well in a jam.

Killing mobs quickly doesn't mean efficiently - it might mean the opposite. Mage nukes are almost as mana efficient as a wizard's. And if both the mage and wizard are chain nuking, there's a likelihood of an earth root break - unless you're snaring the mob, in which case you're gonna waste time running around rather than nuking - which would mean a necro's Dots are actually going to beat you in a speed battle, since they can stack them, then run.

Dunno if this works on p99 - people used to also do it with Goblin Gazughi ring. I stand corrected if it does work - but I don't think it does.

If you just needed someone to pull aggro, you could get that from a better class...

Again, i didn't argue that it can't work or it's unfeasible - it's just not all that efficient.

The best duo in the game is clearly double warriors. Duh.

Envious · #37 07-05-2011, 04:40 PM

Monk / shm
ench / mag
shm / necro
necro / rogue
druid / rogue
cleric / war
ench / clr
ench / wiz
bard / wiz
wiz / druid

Ench + necro is fucking stupid. One of the worst ideas ever. Druid / necro is ok, but not as good as necro / shm.

Make sure to choose races correctly... or you end up with failure anyway.

Should prolly go ikky, and either monk / shm or necro / shm. If not that, then go clr / ench or war / clr.

Envious · #38 07-05-2011, 04:43 PM

Forgot:

ench / druid

some of your combinations are hilarious. ench wiz? bard wiz? cleric/warrior? really? Enchanter/necro is extremely efficient as both use pets, mana is in high abundance, and both classes have a lot of utility (especially necro heals) which allows them to duo a variety of different camps.

Ench Wiz is definitely good, but really only 53+. Wizard PBAoE isn't efficient enough to take down lots of blue mobs at a decent pace until the Jyll's line...although it's doable before then if you have more than just one wizard nuking.

Edit: But yeah, I really don't think Bard Wiz works. I'm open to correction.
