Earthcrafter Gloves price?
Hot armour isn’t a lofty goal. It doesn’t require trigger attention to batphone - it is scheduled activity where you just put aside an hour or two in advance, show up, help out, announce afk if something irl breaks your attention. You sit at camp being spoonfed mobs. It’s not much different to taking part in a friendly casual 6 man xp group.

You’ll make friends in the guild doing stuff like HoT which will make it easier to form a crew for your glove giants.

If 51 is high enough for HoT then I'll go, but I think Kittens requires 55 for it at the moment.

Park your druid in tov, hop on a guild cleric bot. Figure out the CH chain macro and pull your weight for your drops rather than sitting there doing nothing on a useless druid.

Win one of your HoT pick 3s, hop on druid, loot, and leave for the night.

55+ for non clerics. IMHO I’d keep leveling and pick up a thurg BP. Stats are still really nice, it’s cheap, the click is the best of the set. Throw in ES legs and that’s a nice combo.

Or community night raids and roll on PoHate armor.

(all you need is 15 people for HoT if you're min maxing the mobs per hour to people ratio and druid aint it)

Please don’t be another class purist and say specialists only. Pretty sure Druids get CBlast at 55 too.

Just saying, all you need is:

- War
- Ramp Tank (pally pref but it doesnt matter)
- Monk puller
- 3 Clerics
- Bard
- 2 Enc
- 2 Torp Sham
- 3 Rogues
- 1 Ranger

Use coth bot to get people up. Druid bot for potg.

2 torp shaman is enough to take care of the aoe dmg on the melee. 2x enc for sieves (early enc slow always helps but sham usually override it quickly).

Obviously not a strategy for everyone....but thats the most lucrative way to do HoT (if everyone is serious about playing focused and not AFKing). Gear certainly helps, too. When I was coming out for BeefHoT we had some big boy melees with some near BiS gear, but its not required.

I’d rather clear more and get less loot than low-man HoT. My dice suck with 17 people or 40.

That said, in a perfect world less druids show up than melees and clerics (especially at this point on Blue) but something something about leading a horse to water.

No one will notice you on a kittens hot raid in the sea of 60 people , you’ll be fine on a 55 Druid.

Kittens is full of homies and bros. Had it done within an hour. I don't deserve this sort of kindness honestly.
