AA Help

Post by yaladilae »

Frenzied Burnout
Fire Core (Improved twincast maxed)
Companion Blessing
Fortify Companion
Hasten Fortify Companion
Replenish Companion
Hasten Replenish Companion (does this even exist)?

Which would you think is the most important aa to up first?

I mostly solo, but sometimes group.
Returning after 4 years of not playing, so working on aa, not raiding as of yet

What do you have into these aa, if any?

Personally I'd go Fire Core then FBO. I'd make sure your other pet defensive and pet dps aa are maxxed before looking into the other AA. As for the others, I have not worked into them too much just yet and don't want to mislead you on what to purchase.

Hastened mending is the hasten replenish companion aa.

Based on your list, I'll have to agree with the above poster that Fire Core should be first.

If you're mostly solo you want to make sure *all* your pet defensive AA's are done first as that will give you the best returns. Personally I would not focus on FC as that will not help you near as much defensive will. Fort / Hasten Fort is usable *way* more often than FC is and gives much better return when solo as well.

BTW: Not just saying this to disagree with Vora... run the math and you'll see. FC will basically help you kill 2-3 (and you'll only get that if your multi pulling in the first place, the very thing you needed fort for...) more mobs every like 20-30 minutes, but Fort will help ensure your pet doesn't die while killing far far more mobs in the same time span.

Hmm, somehow missed the mostly solo part. Fire Core is tricky because it has a level restriction for spells.

The site www.eqaasearch.org has the level limits for each rank listed, as well as what the aa's you listed do. May want to check that out and compare to the advice here to help you along :D

Giving us a more complete list of what you have spent overall would be your best bet.

IMHO Passive AAs are a lot more impactful then Activated AAs simply because they are active 24/7. Now that is not to say that FBO and FC are garbage, but they are not being used 24/7. Passives are more beneficial to a soloer then a raider, because people who raid have time to wait for things to repop and such, when your soloing you don't.

Thanks guys

I am level 90 now, have all the pet offence and defence passive maxed (alacrity, sturdy, agility, durability, fury)

I also have 9 in host of elements, servant of ro
I have 4 in fortify companion, 6 in companion blessing, 6 in replenish companion (which heals 70% of my pet)

The rest are mainly nuke improvements.
But Thanks for the fire core tips, looks like i need to double check my rank and get a few more on there

I have host in the shell and Aegis of Kiladurn aa, as well as pet DA, also rumbling servant hastened and extedned

Ignore Servant of Ro, at top lvl its still pretty poor, your AAs can be better spent elsewhere.

there are times you'll need things dead quick. on my primary burn, i use first spire, fire core, silent casting (tho others use arcane whisper for the instant cast time), focus of arcanum (prolly don't need this for soloing), and improved twincast. getting these to max for level will give ya the dps boost to get thru a tricky situation.
