more than happy to help with some hc lowbie levelling if times overlap

greater gloves of handling, 2 rings of animal friendship, belt of lions and maybe 5 skill points in AE is generally enough for Lammasu. Need a level 35+ to spawn them though instead of blink dogs

yuo need 59 to nab the lammy -- so you really need 39 plus take 20 during non combat -- strive for 39 with skills, chr, and gear and you can nab it at level 2

the trick to nabbing the lammy is to log a high level toon to spawn them, then bring in the low level with the gloves and the rings, plus chr bonus and your skills, you can nab a lammy at level 2

On the bright side, Greater gloves of Animal Handling only cost 960, and they (barely) allow me to AE the Blink Dog at L3.

i have 5 level 19's in HC Chrystoph -- lemme know when you are within range ans ill log them in -- i can nab on lammy, and you can nab another, i have a wiz and a mele for the tags

Same sort ofthing anywhere in the mod, it depends on how you work. You can apply alot of buffs to the critters to enhance their viability, but I agree that they aren't super useful in the pre-Immo runup.

with druid greater magic fang and buffing it then maybe. You can also take conj/trans on the druid (and necro) for direct damage and insta kills.

they start strong but dont scale - you can do up to level 25 tags with lammasu, but thats about it. Then you may get stuck. Oltum doesnt really get past 15s

Taking a page from you, B, and using the Dru critters.

just play smart and watch timers. Playing a caster solo in pre-LL is going to be painful btw chrystoph, regardless of hc or normal mode.

Since I don't have any -HC- race yet, I am following one of the old Open Druid builds. I noticed that it has a Meta at L9 and the Recommended is Extend, but the explaination is for Silent. Thinking Silent makes more sense for the lower level content since it can be paired with Silence.

not sure what you mean by 'lack of lowbie support'. HC lowbying is fine if you are careful, its building up some gear for the 20s and 30s that takes time as you need to plan it out carefully (bankers)

silence is also premium if you have it to negate the healing of the mobs and you can beat them down with mele, or you can just use spells on em -- they are easily defeated, sunburst maybe or undeath to death

yeah i died too many times -- and then took time and didnt multitask -- example, rhazhid is cake with crushing hand and mord first, plus time stop if you have it -- that is a no brainer run

I appreciate the offer, and would be happy to party. With the exception of Rogue specific elements of the pre-Epic sections, I am usually ok. My last toon died to a stupid mistake where the Oltum triggered a trap and I caught an insta.

as a side note, id be happy to HC with yas -- i dont play HC due to the lack of lowbie level support and i really dont want to put that much effort in the success of my lowbies

and SO talking to you during creation results in misnaming....
- Vicky Addams (Chrystoph), 2 hours, 25 mins ago
hope you didnt waste too much time with the wrong race! another pro tip is make sure you actually use a hyphen when creating HC or prepare to waste a lot of xp :)

Note to self, double click for highlighting and copy/paste can put a space in front of the Subrace in creation.
