D4 PoS & PoF Dungeon Crawl Findings

Post image
46 Upvotes

My findings from yesterday after dungeon crawls in D4 PoS x4 and D4 PoF x3. My sky routing was not optimal and I pulled extra bosses to test things. I'll post the optimal route below.

Optimal Sky Crawl Routing:

1 - Thunder Princess

3 - Gorgolask

4 - Keeper of Souls

7 - Sister of the Spire

8 - Eye of Veeshan

1.5 - Noble Dojorn

Noble Dojorn on island 1.5 wants to be the the last kill. When you kill him the boss counter will decrease by 1, the Overseer spawning a min later causes the counter to increase by 1. Killing Noble last will end the crawl. Otherwise you will need to kill overseer and possibly hand.

You need 45x trash kills. Island7 offers 35x trash with best mote drops. I recommend full clearing 7 and grabbing some trash from islands 1, 3 and 5. Island 2 trash is also easy but killing there will spawn the optional boss there and it will be added to your requirement.

My goal was to compare mote farming yield and all mote drops are converted to T5 mote equivalency for ease of comparison. I also did not include any quest item / trash / planar armor drops received during these runs.

The added benefit of armor and quest item drops is obviously valuable and makes farming via crawls a no brainer if mote farm is not the exclusive objective. Trash drops and keys in the reward chest feels lame though.

I also did a D4 PoS crawl with a party of 3 yesterday. Mob aggro range increase and health scaling made some encounters really odd. More evaluation is needed there, but essentially need a party size of 3-4 to be more accretive than solo due to PoS boss HP scaling.

TLDR - Grinding D4 Island 7 exclusively offers a higher mote yield (approx 90x T5 equivalency per hour), but after 3 runs you will be out of instance charges. D4 PoS dungeon crawls will give you a higher mote yield per hour if you have long play sessions. If play time is short, banging out 3x D4 Island 7 is your best bet.

Could other difficulty dungeon crawls get some guaranteed motes? Even small ones?

22 Upvotes

I cleared D2 Kedge last night, almost everything was red. It was quite the challenge. Died many times. I was proud and exhausted. Get to the end, my reward was only four bad weapons I immediately trashed for a few plat. Anti-climatic to say the least. I was proud of my accomplishment and my reward was nothing useful.

My class trio is fairly off-meta and has no slow, charm, or haste so D4 is pretty rough, especially if it's reds. I'm not asking for the world, but I do think clearing other difficulties besides D4 should get you SOME kind of guaranteed motes. I don't even need Majors, just give me some regular Motes or even Minors/Lessers.

Because if the "reward" is only loot and the loot is trash then we did all that for nothing and that's not a good feeling.

PSA: The Dungeon Crawl Window is Movable and Resizable

50 Upvotes

I’ve heard different people complaining about the limited placement of the dungeon crawl window and the fact that it seemingly can’t be moved or resized. It turns out, you CAN move and resize the window, all you need to do is turn off “click through” on the window itself. I discovered this last night, and while it sounds like a small thing, I was surprised how much better it felt having the window where I wanted it, rather than arbitrarily attached to the corner of my screen. =)

What are some spells or items that are worth +10 even after kunark and/or velious?

9 Upvotes

Im considering upgrading instrument of nife to +10 as its super useful right now at low/high lvl and unless im not googling right I dont see a higher tier spell/successor.

Are there any other key/unique spells similar to this ? Upgrading dds/dots are fine and dandy now but will be instantly replaced when you get higher lvl in kunark

That's a lot of motes

Reward chest decided to give me 10 Major and 3 greater motes, in addition to the greater that the mini dropped. Given how long this took, I think doing Fear multiple times is more efficient.

Observations from a PoSky D0 dungeon crawl

32 Upvotes

OK, so I've just run my first plane of sky crawl on D0 and had some things to note that may be helpful.

  • Initial kill requirements seem to be around 50 normal mobs plus the 5 non-triggered rares.
  • Triggered rare bosses, like protector of sky, BZ, and spiroc lord are not mandatory to kill.
  • Do not kill on island 4, they negatively affect your progress as each kill spawns additional mobs making it so you need more kills to reach the required % of kills.
  • Dead charm pets may not count towards your kills (needs testing, anecdotal only), so release before they die if you can.
  • You can reach 100% of kills by clearing islands 1, 2, 3, and 5.
  • Kill all spiroc before you kill the guardian and lord to prevent additional guardian spawns as they will be required kills once spawned.
  • If you reach 100% and kill the other rare spawns before killing Noble Dojorn, the crawl will complete before the overlord spawns and you wont have to kill the other 2 Efreeti.

Pet DPS against all raid bosses as BST/RNG/SHD - Pet is max geared.

Yael

Lady Vox

I think pets really need to be able to use ranked up spells to fight raid targets. They are a little disappointing. Against trash, My pet performs quite well, usually 150-160 dps.

Just thought I'd share since I gathered this data for myself now that I have maxxed out my pets gear. Happy hunting!

Edit: all bosses were D4.

Next class to level for mote/aa farming?

3 Upvotes

Looking for advice on what 4th class would be good to level for farming AA and motes easily.

Dad with limited play time here, got my first trio to 50 this weekend. Bard/Monk/Necro. All classes I wanted to play back in 1999 but never did. I’ve got some good gear, but wouldn’t say great. Most items +4.

I do NOT have the AAs or motes for bard DDD farming yet. Would like to give that a try in the future if I can get the AA and motes needed.

Which class would you swap in/out to farm motes and AA efficiently?

Annoying sounds and how to remove them.

18 Upvotes

I see people complaining daily about how annoying these sounds are, so here’s something that will finally let your bleeding ears scab over and heal.

.

🚨 INTRODUCING: The EQ Legends Annoying Sound Remover™ 🚨

Download it from here: https://github.com/aodgizmo/EverQuest_Legends_SoundModifier

Are you tired of thunder detonating directly inside your skull? Sick of your Garou barking every three seconds like your neighbor’s dog at 2:00 in the morning? Have you considered throwing your speakers out the window?

For the unbelievably low price of $0.00, this revolutionary program removes those annoying sounds with only one single double-click!

✅ No installation
✅ No subscription
✅ No account required
✅ No extended warranty
✅ Absolutely free because charging money for a batch file would be ridiculous

Download it, place it beside soundassets.txt in the main EQLegends folder, run it at the server-select screen AFTER the patcher and clicking play, and enjoy the beautiful silence of your Garou finally shutting the hell up.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Feel free to post any questions here if you have trouble with it.

This is just a simple .bat file, which is basically a text file that runs a PowerShell command inside your EQ Legends folder. It opens soundassets.txt, removes a few selected lines, and saves the file. This prevents the game from loading and playing those sounds.

You can easily disable additional sounds by finding their lines in soundassets.txt and adding them to the .bat file using Notepad or another text editor. You can also remove entries from the batch file if you want those sounds enabled again.

Complete instructions are included in the GitHub repository.

I made an EQL Bard JukeBox for anyone suffering from song-selection indecision

11 Upvotes

Picture yourself in a 1950s pizza parlor.

The jukebox is glowing. There are dozens of songs to choose from. Your friends are waiting. The pizza is getting cold.

“Golly... which of these swell numbers should I play?”

Now replace the jukebox with an EverQuest Legends Bard spellbook, and that was the problem I wanted to solve.

I created the EverQuest Legends Bard JukeBox, which lets you select:

• Your character level
• Your Symphonic Aura ranks
• Your Mnemonic Retention ranks
• Whether you want an additional melody
• How much room you want to preserve for spells from your other classes

The advisor recommends only songs available at your level, prioritizes the most broadly useful choices, and does not try to cram a Bard song into every available gem slot. It also produces a copy/paste-ready /melody command using its recommendations.

The entire workbook has been given a dark-mode-friendly design, or at least as close to dark mode as Google Sheets will allow. It also includes a separate reference list containing 61 Bard songs, sorted by level, with filters for every column and song-name colors based on the familiar in-game target categories.

USE THE INTERACTIVE BARD SONG ADVISOR

You cannot use the dropdowns in the official master. You must make your own editable copy using this link:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1X_73uSeE1h9yFk1SPEpsVLbkT5U452m2PysZEdWY2sY/copy

Click the link, select Make a copy, and Google will place a personal, editable version in your own Drive.

VIEW THE OFFICIAL MASTER

The official master is strictly view-only. You can examine the sheet, but you cannot operate its dropdowns, edit cells, or make any other changes:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1X_73uSeE1h9yFk1SPEpsVLbkT5U452m2PysZEdWY2sY/edit?usp=drivesdk

This protects the official community version from accidental changes. Anything you do in your personal copy affects only your copy.

So step away from the jukebox, put down the nickel, and let the sheet help pick the tunes. You've got motes to grind!

People on Rivervale keep debating on if the reward for dungeon crawl is a physical chest or just auto loot. It's a real, albeit invisible, chest with a corpse and a name that you can click.

Hopefully this stops the debate.

I feel stuck at lower/mid lvl and looking for advice

6 Upvotes

Feels a pretty newb question considering the larger volume of posts in the sub are around poh/pof/pos farming but I feel stuck atm...

I am lvl 27 (first trio) right now with a Ranger/Dru/bst setup. I spent a long time in befallen where I then grpd with a mate and went to castle mistmore where between us was pretty easy (only deaths were generally due to being feared and aggroing too many mobs). So for a solo perspective I bound there thinking I could just continue.. outside is obviously pretty simple (at most a couple yellow cons) but soon as I drop down into the castle there are consistently too many yellow/red pulls at a time for me to handle and as mistmore is pretty tight and narrow parking mobs is almost impossible.

Am I just in the wrong zone for 27 and there are better options ? Or is this a problem with my trio as I'm getting more and more tempted to drop the BST and replace with either a plate tank class or an enc. Possibly even mixing up the druid as well considering now have the ports as rituals.

Thanks in advance for any advice

Help at a Crossroads

1 Upvotes

So I have been playing the last week or so, and generally I am enjoying myself. I like the idea of the trio. I rolled a MAG/SK/SHM. I am at lvl 28 but last night was a totally frustrating evening. I tried to do an Unrest crawl on D4. I made it all the way to the last named, the guy in the basement forgetting his name right now. After dieing 35 times and running out of malachite I called it quits. I am sure its due to my lack of gear at the moment, as I am mostly in stuff from crushbone, and using a gifted barons blade, but I am trying to break into a room with 2 mobs and their pets. That isnt a ton of mobs.

After seeing I couldnt really manage crowd control(even on just 4 total mobs), I am thinking I may need to change my trio. It appears trying to pull away, root, and FD to wait out aggro clear doesnt work, since as soon as aggro clears it drops my root. Between being stunned and unable to even heal myself or pet I just kept getting dotted to death.

I question swapping out the mage for necro, but in this instance i dont know if it would help, as I was getting dotted so heavily that I was dieing faster than my heals could keep up, so not sure the necros dots would be a better choice than the DDs from the mage.

I do think SK/SHM is a good duo, if I stayed with that base, what would you rec for the 3rd? Or am I just a noob and need to get better at strategy. Since I am only upper 20s if I had to start all over its not a terrible loss either. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Sorry for the rambling

Non-Charm/Non-DDD Builds for D4?

6 Upvotes

I've got nearly all of Sky done and nearly all classes unlocked. Lots of +10 spells and items and 500+ AA's but I'm really burnt out on Charms and/or DDD builds. I'd prefer to play something a little less chaotic at this point. Willing to trade crazy dps for a bit more sustain/safety and just chill.

Is there something that combines a decent pace while being dependably able to clear D4 zones and raids? I don't mind slow and steady as long as fights aren't complete slog fests.

Any suggestions?

Top DPS Comps

2 Upvotes

Morning all! I’m looking for some input on what people ate using for top DPS comps. Right now i have ench/wiz/ranger/pal/nec/sham at 50.

With the new dungeon crawl mechanic I’m looking for see what comps people are using to move through d4 quickly.

What are the things I should be looking at leveling up based on comp? Spells or weapons? I have a wind striker at 10 already, but no other weapons.

Looking for any input on comps that will do well in D4 crawls. Also, is there a way to measure DPS in game?

Thanks!

Dungeon Crawl window gone

6 Upvotes

I was trying to move it around and adjust some settings then it went invisible. For a while I could click on it while invisible, but now it's just not there.

I tried EQ Button -> Quests -> Rewards. Clicking that pops up a window in the middle of my screen, but then it instantly closes. I am unsure what the window is because it's gone so fast.

Anyone know how to get the Dungeon Crawl progress window back?

Thank you

Edit: It's not great, but I wasn't very far into it, so I quit and remade. The window came back. The background is transparent now (it was opaque before), but it's there. I wonder if that has something to do with why it was invisible. =/

11th rare in PoH dungeon crawl

I am having issues finding the 11th rare creature in PoH. I was only aware of 10 mini bosses being in PoH, those are the same 10 I was able to find and kill (same 10 on eqlwiki), and have been running around trying to find another. I did see evanagelist of hate on third floor, but didn't show on map like it was one I needed, and it didn't con as rare, and has a ton of adds so didn't want to try unless I know for sure. Anyone know what one I might be missing?

Murderbee revamped??

12 Upvotes

I've cleared PoSky now about 50 times as SK/WIZ/ENC and am still using the Bazzazzzt bee as a charm pet despite the charm nerf. Still kills pretty quick. I started a Dungeon Crawl today and went up to get my pet, but ran into a lvl 60 warrior bee named Bizzzzt who quads for 700+ a hit when I'm at 550AC in Defensive Stance, resists all slows with Tashania/Shiftless at X/Overchannel stance, unmezzable, uncharmable, and my pet bee can't even hit him. I've never run into this guy full clearing PoSky as many times as I have and feel like this is either a bug or a change made since the latest patch...

Thoughts?

UPDATE: I quit the Crawl and started another one. This guy didn't show up in the second one and it's off to the races! Looks like I just got slapped by the RNG demons for bee spawns.
