Iksars are not kos in catacombs. Can sell and bank there. They are obviously not on qeynos faction.

Strange, considering they are KoS in other evil cities. Convenient, though (on the rare occasion an Iksar heads to the Qeynos area).

its good to know i have never played an evil race before and not knowing where i can bank/sell is slowing things down for me a bit. but its all part of the eq experience and why why eq is better than the modern mmo..

Closest merchant is in qeynos catacombs. Just summon a few bags to keep tusks in.

As far as root rotting I don't know why anyone would want to do it any other way. #1 rooted mobs take more dot damage. #2 you get med time. Kinda baffled at the whole dot run dot run tactic.

At level 19 roots won't consistently stick on mommas, so you can either die trying to get one to stick or just run away. As time goes by of course root/rot would work more efficiently but the xp you gain kiting red mommas is certainly worth the time spent kiting them...

But hell I only did it from 9-32 (starting on red calves) so what do I know?

Damage is a set amount per tick whether the mob is moving or not, why would rooting cause more damage?

DoTs do 2/3 damage to a mob that is moving when not fleeing/feared.

Yeah, this was patched in like two years ago. Mgellan seriously out of the loop [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Learn something new every day [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Then again, all I do these days is root and rot so seems like my kiting days were pre-patch...

Kiting still better than dying to me tho. At 19 if a momma gets more than a lick or two on you you're toast.
