Retan Dolomar worth it? 07/29/2009 07:36 PM CDT
Are Dolomars worth the trip to hara'jaal to bridge the gap until celpeze?

Not really. You're better off in bristlebacks. They'll get you close enough that a short stop in orc raiders will get you the rest of the way.

Until gryphons stop teaching at about 320. :P Bristles will teach higher.

Except they don't stop at 320. Not even close.

"Until gryphons stop teaching at about 320. :P Bristles will teach higher."

Does anyone know what number(s) bristle peccs stop teaching at? Around 450ish?

TM 440
Parry 420
Evasion 390
Armor 390
Main weapon 385
Appraisal 380
Multi 350

And all these can still be locked in bristles...

I took Young/Fledgling Gryphons to 400+ defenses and ~380s weapons before they changed the global engagement cap and I started learning multi too slowly there. From there I went straight to south barricade celps.

If I didn't have MO OCD I could have stayed in gryphons for another 50 or so ranks, I assume, based on the way they were teaching me at that point.

Rossmans gryphons have rendered bristle backs obsolete.

Double post...

I had some troubles with stealths when I jumped to celps, due 100% to their searching. A few script tweaks and some routine changes fixed that. I was just under 450 stealths when I went to celps, if I'm remembering correctly.

Before I left, anything over 320 would just not move at all.

I capped defenses there around 500, and weapons at about 430 before going to south barricade celps.
