not sure what lvl the ape was he was blue to me @49 but i imagine he was in
his high 40s and i heard they have boots of the same quality.)
we had about 3 parties of 6 lvl45+ players
a well balanced party of 6 45+ could probably do 1 ape alone with no prob.
however in the fear plane mobs like to wonder on by and join in.
to do the fear plane u will need a WELL balanced party.
you need a druid for sow for when u get teleported by the monster your
fighting and also you need them for evac since the zone out of that place is
like hidden in a castle or something.
you need a cleric to heal and to res ppl when they die.
you need a bard for the mana song, fighting buffs, and levetate so when the
entire party gets blasted up above the trees it won't kill your casters from
the fall. (all that traing in safefall actually paid off... i didn't take a
bit a dmg and i was sure to brag about it too)
you need a caster... we had a necro.. i like the necros skel stun spell... i
turns the mob into a skel and stuns them for like 10 seconds.
enchanters are really nice because they can mesmorise several mobs @a time
and allow your party to focus on one with out gett'n hit in the back the
whole time.
and lastly you need a real tank... one that can taunt... i prefer rangers
normally because they can track... however our ranger said his tracking was
useless in there because monster didn't respawn and there were too many ppl
in the zone that filled up his tracking screen.
don't really know why you need a monk anymore though... since the warriors
are doing more dmg than ever.. they got more hps.. and they can taunt...
casters seem to like that taunt thing.. it can come in handy in keeping a
party alive... it really sucks to see one of my casters gett'n the crap beat
out of em and there is nothing i can do about it... as a matter of fact i
normally just stay on the 1st mob until he's dead... tanks normally have to
taunt off the casters when we get more than one... and they take more dmg
than ever... high lvl monks hardly ever take dmg... not because of block,
dodge, reposte and such... but because we can't taunt... i've gotten to
where i normally do the pull'n just so i can take some dmg before the mob
jumps on a caster and it has to be taunted off by the tank.
actually i think if there were more high lvl warriors and i wasn't such good
friends with the ppl i normally party with i would probably get replaced...
just like our server's 1st high lvl rogue.)
sorry to go off the subject like that... but this has been bugging me for a
while..(
