If you had around 45k to spend...

If you can get a lvl 5 druid to Kael, just park them there to tag statue / aow kills and youll get high enough if youre patient

... Well shit, that changes everything. I was thinking of the thurg armor originally, didn't even think about trying for SS. Thank you so much! This is fantastic. Going to use my necros bone chips to get to 14 or so and head over to Kael. So glad I made this thread.

Thanks for all the advice guys, was incredibly helpful. Going to re-roll to druid, get my bp, and port/PL my way into some plat for an sk/ranger later on.

Spreadsheet-quest Statue of Rallos Zek's time-of-death, log in during next window and do a bunch of other probably more important than EQ things until Statue pops, wait til Statue is at 10% health and the raid killing it isn't wiping before casting a spell for an easy +500 CoV faction. If another guild or the raid force who just killed Statue is doing Avatar of War, repeat the process and that's +1000 CoV faction within ~30 minutes.

And then do SS armour quests at Level 5?

Sure. Looter of the item hands Skyshrine raw armor piece in first, then receiver hands in three gems, unstacked: results in completed armorpiece for the person who handed gems in.
Both characters need to be Ally, of course.

Basically, the first hand-in flags NPC as ready for remaining items to complete your quest/armorpiece, and then the reward is dispatched to whoever hands in the missing pieces.

Obviously you'd pay looters of Skyshrine armorpieces a sum of money.

But he';s already got a high level necro.... well, I'm guessing he's high level since he has 45k. Seems strange if true. Necro is probablybetter power level'r in the 30+ than a druid is.

Why would you spend 45k to gear a Druid so you can raise the 45k requires to get a fungi for a melee?

 

because the Druid could keep generating 45k again and again given enough time and patience

It's going to take you like two thousand ports to break even.

Druid checks all the boxes of what I really wanted. It's what I had in mind when I made this thread originally, but thurg BP didn't seem possible (for me), and I didn't even think I could try for SS. I'll never replace it, the clicky would be incredibly useful, and would allow me to heal reasonably well for a long time. Epic is super doable for a casual, I can port everywhere, solo, etc.

Plus, I could make the plat back way easier on a druid than a ranger or SK. So when I'm ready to roll an alt, I've got a path I can follow and a character that can get me there.

Druids also win FashionQuest. So there's that, too.
