I'm posting this here and not in the Mage forums because my questions will jump around alot, not all regarding just Illusionist questions. I'll attempt to make this as organized as possible.
Here are my questions and observations. FYI, I just started my Ill. last night and am currently lvl 8 and did really well with him for the first 5-6 lvls.
1. Is there a trick to soloing? I must have died 12 times in the 2 hours I played, partly due to the extreme amount of resists I experienced.
2.Does anybody else see their spells resisted alot for this class?
3.Do some classes get a better chance at recieving certain drobs/rare harvestables than others? I ask this because although I died alot, I already had to Legendary drops, 2 adepts for my class, and 6 (yes 6 rares) harvested. This was from causal harvesting also, mostly from running back and forth from the mendor.Just curious if there was some secret that SOE installed that automatically felt bad for me for choosing an illusionist, therefore I get really lucky on finding items; sort of like an inscentive (sp) for playing the class.
4.Is there a certain spell we recieve that makes soloing a whole lot easier? I really want to play this class because in the 2 months I've played I've only seen one other Illusionist and I haven't seen her if a few months. I'm beginning to understand why alot of people don't play this class.
5. Not really a question but it's also frustrating to want to spend the whole 40 silvers I have on a little better chest armor than a 4 mitigation dress I have, but there was a whole 5 items on the broker all well over 1 gold for lower than lvl 10 items. Ok, there is a question. Is the market for an Illusionist really that bad?
I'm on LD if that makes a difference for any of my questions. Thanks
Vertan-8 Ill, LD
