about to get a Donator package, need opinon

[soberteq]

Well, I just would like opinions. I am about to get myself a Christmas gift (one donor package). Consider that I box (team in signature, with extra Rog bot) most of the time. Gear is mostly Seb/Kael for all toons. I have a few T3/equiv. pieces on Sobert that I scavenged from rot calls.

Now, what would help my little group to progress faster. Donator weapon, shield (95) or shaman WoA clicky ? I have never begged or asked to get WoA and I progressed my way without it. But when I have (from random grouping) I can successfully accomplish stuff I can't without it. Perhaps, on higher tiers it becomes trivial.

I don't know if the weapon or shield would help just as much ? (or any other suggestion)

My experience here is as a multiboxer who also uses an SK as a tank and de facto main (as it sounds like you are doing). In my opinion, your best choices would be either SK donor weapon 1.0 (sword of hate), which has a powerful clicky lifedrain, or the SK donor pants (greaves of erebos), which has a clicky 15k rune and powerful hate generator. Either one of these will instantly increase the ceiling of where your box group can fight.

If I may be allowed to overstep my bounds for a moment and give unsolicited advice, I might also recommend that instead of two tanks and two healers with one DPS, you might find greater success with more DPS.

Hope this helps 8 )

the SK weapon, donor pants, shaman weapon (woa clicky), are all very good choices. The shield, while it is nice, and I have it myself, I would say the pants or weapon would help far more. For an SK, I'd probably get the pants first, since your have alot of self healing already, plus death march. The SK weapon and pants together, would be a great choice, then you can't go wrong with the shaman weapon on top of that. Especially when you have to start dealing with a lot of aoe dmg or little adds running around, that 1500hp/tick regen can really help.

I also agree Ipdfan, you'd be better to drop your 2nd tank (the warrior I would assume) and pick up something like a bard, as it will up everyone dps, and push your wizards dps that much higher. Bards are a very useful class here, the songs help tremendously.

Thanks, that is really appreciated

I'll drop the warrior for a bard
drop the Shaman for a mage

I want to drop the rogue bot as well. What other melee would do well with SK/CLR/WIZ/BARD/?MAGE ?

I'll check on the legs. I haven't seriously looked at them.

my usual 6 box set up is SK, Mage, Cleric, Wiz, Zerker, (bard character or cleric bot depending).

As for which donor, if you're just getting one I'd go with getting sk the shield. I have the pants on my sk and they are nice, but there are some spots they aren't usable. 90% DI chance is awesome, and the clicky from the weapon is a damaging to the mob regen to you. it is very nice as well. Never really bothered with a shaman donor, between cleric character and bot healing everyone is fairly easy up through T7 dsk 1 (well and adrienne as she's a joke)

Coh clicky then donor Arms, when you're boxing you want to save time.

[Melkor]

sk, mage, bard, cleric, shaman, wizard is a solid group.

as far as which donor to get, I would go SK donor weapon 1. 0

Christmas is also the time for giving, so maybe a shaman donor and park him in the hidden forest for free woa? Just a thought

Ok so i just typed a long post about which of your classes i use and which donors they have and what i like and dont like about them, but my wife called, and for some reason my phone closed it out and i lost it all. So this is gunna be much shorter. SK 1.0 sword plus the donor aug. With that and your taps your sks self healing is great. The donor legs look like they would be great to however i dont use them yet because my enhancment focus is on my legs and i think id perfer the longer discs over the rune. The sheild is great its saved me more times however its not something i rely on. Unless the mobs DT. I personally want my tank to have the highest survivablilty because Im a solo player and I perfer to single tank fights so i dont have an extra tank bogging my system down, and sometimes it does get hairy on fights with alot of adds. Also cleric donor 1.0 while i havent gotten used to changing my ranges because its an ae heal now instead of a group heal, im already looking into the benefits in a couple months when i get a better comp about running a second group and not needing a dedicated healer for it. As for the shaman donor, woa is nice i love it for power leveling my toons, however if i had to choose between my shaman only being able to cast gladiator or only being able to cast woa. I would choose gladiator. In higher tiers the insane regen of woa turns into nothing more than regen
