Wayfarers of Veeshan

Okay, gots a question for ya all:

Have any of you started working on your AA's? And if so, what lev do recommend starting those and what percentage of yoour xp are you allocating?

Now that I have the 53 Pally, I am trying to figure out if I should work on AA's and what importance I should give to them. Any help that you can give me would be greatly appreciated!

A confused dwarf warrior (tryin ta play a half-elf pally!)

I have come to the conclusion AA points begin to become a personal thing. In other words, depending on the individuals goal, then that should determine if you should want to take advantage of AA points or not. Also, if you read the various class boards, many will recommend that you get to level 54, then go 100% into AA to get your 3 points for your run ability, then go back to 100% exp and level up to 60 and once you have gotten to level 60 the natural thing would be to go 100% AA and go from there. I don't know if you have witnessed this yet or not, but I have seen a level 60 kiting and could not help but feel very cheated at the fact because here this person already has their exp levels, but what they are in fact doing is working on AA exp. Another thing that some people might make a priority is to get 6 AA points so they can have the Baron title....but there again that falls into the category of personal choice. I know the archetype AAexp is way cool and a personal thing for Kamvenya will be to have her AA points so that when she gets to level 59 she will be able to get her unholy stead. Otherwise...Kamvenya's goal is to get her levels and such. I'm not sure about what is in store for Lacries at the archetypes, but the same does apply to her as well...to level up and have AA points by the time she reaches the respective level for the advanced AA points.

Hope this helps ya some. Best thing to do is to do some research on the Internet about AA points and determine for yourself your game plan. Both Lacries and Kamvenya at level 52 are each putting 20% exp into AA points. Lacries has 1 AA point to date and Kamvenya is about 2 yells from her 1st AA point. They both will maintain that ratio for awhile, so their level increase will be slow in coming.

Since there are many cool AA abilites at 55 and again at 59 that require haveing spent X points on the lower AA abilities, I want to already have them used by the time I get there. For that reason, I am usually at 50% AA. I also switch to 80% near either kind of ding as I push for it. I also go heavier towards level XP just after a level ding to create a buffer in case of death. As Kam said, It's a personal choice with everyone.

Take from one who now knows the AA story ..guess i didnt read the right forums b-4 i did my AA stuff. Shogi now has 20 AA points. Each AA point is the equivalent of doing lvl 51 the old way b-4 they nerfed the after 50 xp thing. The best thing you can do is get ur run3 as they call it, level straight to 60 & then work on whatever AA u wanna do. Run3 (3AA pts. in Run Speed) is the equal of JBoot speed permanently even in dungeon areas where SoW wont work. Believe me its xtremely helpful if u dont like to die as much, cuz it gives u that lil xtra ummph u need sometimes to stay ahead of the mobs & try to zone. Once u get to 60 check on your class website forum boards as to which AA's are the best to get for ur class. To get any Titles from AA you need the following to do so...1)Baron=6AA pts. in the General catagory at a min. lvl of 51, 2)Next Title Name (diff for each class)=12AA pts. to be spent in the Arch-type catagory at a min. lvl of 55, 3)Next title=24AA pts. to be spent in the Class catagory at a min. lvl of 59. Also once u achive these pts. for each Title you must log out completely( after you have trained the appropriate amt. of points in your catagory) & then back in to see any Title to show or take effect. Hope this helps anyone who wants to know about the AA points & Title changes.

If no one has noticed Shogi gave up & naggy & is now levelin straight to 60. This is because of 2 things ...1) WoV does not have the manpower/resources, or the flexibility of a quick response time from it's members to do naggy or Vox. This is cause u need at least 4-5 clerics & 4-5 casters ( wiz's or mages ) to do Naggy/Vox. 2) Most of the items that drop off Nagy/Vox can be found on other Dragons also..i.e. Gore,Faydedar(real not druid version),ixiblat,etc. . I realized this conclusion when i was tryin to do Naggy for our Guild...it's a sad thing,but true. I would love to do the "Real" Faydedar as he seems to be the easiest of the others to do & we can utilize all of our 45+ members to try to take him down.

OOOOOOOOO, Surphat reeeeeely wants to do Faydadar. Less both halves of the book drop offa him, Surphat needs him more than once. This be true of any of the Paladans in guild that need Epic. From my reading of Paladan epic, he is one that drops both parts of the book.
