I got far better xp solo in the highest ZEM dungeons and if I came across a competent player I'd duo it up for a nice change of pace.
Not sure what you're trying to accomplish in this thread unless your goal is widespread secondhand embarrassment.

No one said you had to group in KC. Take a few shitters (or your pals) to a harder zone and carry them with the absurdly OP toolkit Pallies have for tanking group content. Legit one of the most fun classes to play in the game in that role. Or you could stare at rats in the Hole by yourself.

Either way, it's still fucking dumb to pump CHA at char creation. Go look at that list of items I posted. Glamour sword, Jester's Crown and Crude Stein alone are +77 CHA, and one of them you don't even have to equip. It's absolutely trivial to get CHA to a level where lull/paci is extremely reliable on XP mobs, and CHA is literally useless at 60 since you won't be soloing anything. Giving up +100HP or +200ish mana at 60 for an extra 20 CHA you don't even need while leveling is dumb. DUMB.

 
DUMB

This all falls into the Velious trap. The “you will cap every stat” lie. Sure with a few Vulak and Doz slots you will bulk up but true combat stats will only with Avatar. Before the proc agility and dexterity won’t be. Wisdom isn’t effected by that but even at diminishing returns after 205 will give about 6 mana/1pt of Wisdom instead of 11. Even if you overcap Stamina running around with more hps unbuffed isn’t a bad thing. It’s less buffs you need and more slots free (plus it’s one less ask assuming you have a buffer around).

Let’s be real though, most people will never get near this loot. Not.even.close. These people have to pick their downfall and as one of them I rarely worry about my charisma. Top slot root and get good.

Stats don't matter but also your dumb for putting points into stats I don't like.

I’ve never had any issues with crawling/pulling solo on my Paladin with just over 100 charisma in Seb/HS. I’ve yet to find any reason to try and bump it up any higher than that.

To be fair to the steak, if you sous vide that slab of meat properly you could "cut" it with your finger
