Hi all,
a little background:
Having not played for a while I logged back on and was checking through my spells and skills when I noticed that I had levelled enough for cure critical to be worth casting (cost down to 16). So I checked the old eq list for the book and saw that the channeler in the temple just e and s of BH had one. I popped in to check out the mob and he had the book (yay!) He was sanced and my "consider" gave me the luck and great eq message.
Now normally "lot of luck" I can handle, "luck and great eq" is touch and go, and "lucky punk" generally kicks my ass. I needed the book obviously so I went to Cats to fix my alignment (damn rainmaster always making me bad, bugger never loads the shield anyway), then summoned a Peri, 3 wraiths and finally my JuJu. I sanced up, spec shielded up, got into my best outfit, focused and hit him with my deathgrip. Well, to cut a long story short, I annihalated this fool in no time at all, with my Peri healing I dont think I ever got below 90% hps! and he was 50k!!!
So how does he get to be luck and great eq? He was a right spaz, managed a couple of feeble spells but that was about it? What factors determine how high something cons???
