Gotta Get Our Shrink On
Ring of Surefall Glade to Blackburrow at 15 for the shrink shoulders, which drop twelve minutes in. Then the rest of the zone gets cleared for the belt, the breastplate, the bandana, and the bow, because being an Ogre in doorways had gotten old.
A side trip with one purpose: stop being a full size Ogre in Befallen's doorways. Ring of Surefall Glade at 15 puts you a short run from Blackburrow, and the shrink shoulders dropped twelve minutes into the video. The rest of the session is the zone getting cleared anyway, because at 15 with this build it is not close.
Getting There
The fastest trip in the game.
- Ring of Surefall Glade, auto-granted at 15, drops you effectively next door.
- Spirit of Wolf before you port. The guards pick you up on the ground once you land, and outrunning them is easier than explaining yourself.
- The Qeynos guards are level 25 and killable for fun, but wrecking that faction is not worth it.
- Quit your Befallen instance, then create one here. You only hold one.
- Difficulty 1 again, so nothing runs and you never have to snare trash.
This is the Druid argument in one line. A port ring turns a cross-continent errand into a five minute detour.
The Hunt List
Four items, one that mattered.
- Refugee Shroud, which is the shrink item. Shoulders, 2 AC, 10 mana, 4 charisma, and a click Shrink you can use equipped at level 15. The same named drops it or the claw, so it is a coin flip per kill.
- The runed sabertooth belt, which turned up partway through the run.
- The bow, which took until the next session to actually appear.
- Rusty Spiked Shoulderpads
Rusty Spiked ShoulderpadsEQLMAGIC ITEMSlot: SHOULDERSAC3STR+5SV MAGIC-10WT: 2.5 Size: SMALLClass: ALL except NEC WIZ MAG ENCRace: ALLSource: Blackburrow, A Gnoll Commander, Splitpaw Commander, Socho Darkpaw, Tranixx Darkpaw are a different item and did not drop here. They carry minus 10 magic resist, which is why they are wanted later, for charming rather than for shrinking. - An arrow for the ammo slot, a 3 damage one that lasts forever.
- Gold nuggets go to the dragon hoard. They are Halas faction later.
Two shoulder items, one shrink. Blackburrow drops both the Refugee Shroud and the Rusty Spiked Shoulderpads, and only the shroud carries the click. The giveaway on screen is the charisma: the shroud has it, the shoulderpads have strength and minus magic resist instead.
Fighting the Zone at 15
Rangers are the annoying part.
- Almost 1,200 hit points at 15, which is enough to walk in the front door rather than sneak.
- Face your back correctly before the stuns land, so the cleave goes where you want it. 132 and 80 on the same swing pair.
- Divine stance doubles your heals for very little extra cost, and it is the right call the moment a fight goes long.
- Evasive is the panic button, and every melee class gets it except Warrior, which looks like an oversight.
- Rangers and the mage are the hard mobs here, not the named.
- The overseer area is the hardest part of the zone and still falls over at 15 after a stint in Befallen.
Bard Songs and Spell Slots
Where the AAs went.
- Symphonic Aura done, swapped over to Shield of Thistles plus Chant of Battle.
- Cellos as a placeholder until something better shows up.
- Fury of Magic for 2% spell crit, which does nothing right now but is cheap.
- Another spell slot at two AA, which is the recurring good buy.
- At 17, Bard gets Sneak, which retires the Rogue loadout dance for buying spells in the Iksar city.
- At 18, Dinnin's Disruptive Discord replaces the run speed song for another AoE dot, roughly 20 a tick.
Empower applies to Bard dots too, and to your heals. Free damage when mana is not the constraint.
Loot Difficulty, Briefly Broken
A stealth change and a hotfix.
- Difficulty used to guarantee gear at or above that tier. That changed quietly and a D1 run was handing out D0 items.
- It got hotfixed back during the session, after a D2 item dropped on a D1 run.
- The Hunter achievements were not updated for Blackburrow, so the names you kill here do not count and will need re-killing.
The Blackburrow Detour
- Hit 15 and take Ring of Surefall Glade.
- Spirit of Wolf, then run straight in. Guards will follow and will not catch you.
- Quit your old instance and make a D1 here.
- Kill the named by the bridge until the Refugee Shroud drops instead of the claw.
- Target yourself to click the shrink. It needs level 15 and works while equipped.
- Take the belt, the bandana, and an arrow while you are in there, and keep the spare shrouds to merge.
- Gold nuggets to the dragon hoard for Halas faction later.
- Use Divine for double heals and Evasive when it goes wrong.
- Then gate back to Befallen and keep grinding.

Hello and welcome back to uh my legendary adventures in Norrath. And today uh we’re going to go off to to um God, I already forgot the name of this zone. We’re going to go to Blackburrow. I keep forgetting. Uh but what we’re going to do is we just killed this guy real quick as a nice little quick uh pre-kill since I logged out and I was still in my instance when I came back in after uh getting my car. So, we got that done. Uh we got another uh scythe we can upgrade and do. So, let’s uh let’s get out of here and go to Blackburrow. Now, I’m almost certain I’m almost certain I’m going to die the second I port, but uh here’s here’s hoping. Let’s uh spirit of wolf us just in case we don’t. We’re going to transport Anatutica ring of sure fall. Now, we have North Karana also. Which will also probably kill us. >> [laughter] >> But uh let’s uh let’s go there. So, our goal is to get the shrink shoulders. I don’t really care about anything else in uh Blackburrow. Uh there is an arrow that might be worth grabbing uh just so that we have an arrow. But I truly don’t think there’s anything I’m like Oh, no, I got to get I got to get it. Right, right. I have to look at my uh list, but all right, we’re not dead yet. I’m trying to remember the exact path here. All right, well, I guess you boys don’t want to fight. Yeah, I you see an ogre you know you know what’s up. I understand. I truly understand. >> [sighs] >> All right, we can get straight out here. is like the quickest way to Blackburrow you can possibly imagine, right? I mean, it’s just like in and out. You don’t even have to think about it. Um, that’s why I like druid. Like I Druid is low-key pretty uh pretty badass. Uh you know, able to kill a hill giant at level 12 and uh just not even not even sweat it either, right? I I was I was doing it without snare at first with just bard song and stuff, right? Uh definitely not bad. Are those guards going to try Oh Oh Oh, they want to follow. They want to follow. All right. Well, we’re going to go over here, buddy. Follow me all you want. That’s why I gave myself spirit of wolf. What level are these guys? 25. I bet we could kill them for fun. Um but uh we don’t want to ruin our faction right now, so more than it already is. All right, let’s uh keep going here. We’re going to over to Blackburrow. I was going to go try to kill Hayden uh over here at Lake, but uh uh we’ll do that another time, I suppose. There is the thing. Hopefully, we can just like squeeze right in, you know, and it’ll just like the ogre shuffle inside, right? Let’s get rid of that. And uh I don’t even know what spells we got right now. I haven’t even try Oh, we got skin like a rock Oh, all right, that’s pretty good. Uh let’s do that. What do we got? Triggering new heals. Oh, do we do the sprouting heal? Light heal? No, nothing new. Boys. Let’s uh sneak our way in here. Yonk shonk. Donk ba donk. Didn’t even have to crouch. All right, we’re in Blackburrow. We’ll have to leave our uh other instance, but that is fine. We can get another one here in a moment, so step one, quit instance. Step two, create instance. We’re going to do a one. It’ll make it a little harder, but I don’t have to deal with ensnaring every damn thing. Cuz I’m lazy. At the end of the day, I am I’m the laziest person when it comes to playing this game. I I am definitely not going out of my way to uh put more effort into it than I need to. All right, let’s uh let’s pull up the little list over here. Black burrow, I got the refugee shroud. There is a belt I want to get and a bow and the rusty spike shoulder pads, so. Uh >> [sighs] >> so, there’s four items I want to pick up here, but uh we’ll see if we can get those while we’re here. All right, we’re inside. Let’s uh Let’s do this. I didn’t get quick buff yet, so. That is going to be something we want. Let’s do this one. Come on, come on. S- Taking longer than I want it. Now, they said they moved the name, but he’s like right there. So. Is he coming back? I don’t know. Let’s go shwack him real quick. Give him a good little whackety-whack. Don’t talk back. What is there guy up here? Yeah, this this is the named. Let’s get him. Oh, we got two names already. Nothing can withstand the might of a Thulian. A Thulian uh warrior. Look at that. I don’t even know what this guy drops. What he drop? He dropped a two agility earring. All right, and some raw hide gloves. I think we already have the fallen gloves, so we don’t need this stuff ever. All right, so we can take this arrow, we can put it in the ammo slot. Now, we have a three damage arrow for the rest of our lives. Uh we have that belt, so we can destroy that one. We can to put that earring on and we’re good to go. All right, that was easy. Arrow complete. Let’s see if we can get downstairs. Now, like I believe the thought process is you’re supposed to see the hard mobs and then run away. Uh but we’re not going to do it that way. We’re level 15. We should be able to smoke all that stuff without even trying. You know, we are big and beefy. We got almost 1,200 hit points right now. So, let’s uh let’s start uh swacking these guys. Now, we’re going to want to take keep the gold null things. So, we’re going to auto uh store those. Just going to put them put them straight in our dragon hoard. Uh those are used for Halas faction later on. So, keep that in mind. All right, kill. Oh, yeah, we’re getting we already got a train. Look at that. All right, where are you guys going? I’m going to just want to make sure my back is faced right. So, when you try to stun me, you feel the pain that is a cleave. Look at that, 132. Oh, that’s lovely, right? or 80 on that one. Oh, we already got repost. Shoot. Yeah, we’re getting massive amounts of faction now. And our sprouting heels about to land. What are we getting? We’re still in offensive, so these are all yellow. >> [sighs] >> Uh so, it might be worth uh swapping to defensive at some point, but there we go. Uh patched gnoll fur, I don’t even know what that’s for. I feel like it’s a vendor item. Ringmail neck guard, right? Might as well. Ringmail bracelet, might as well. All right. Now, there’s going to be named right here plus a bunch of other mobs. We want to have full life when we go over the bridge here, but we’re going to go ahead and swap in that destroy and that destroy, right? And we still we have the death happen scythe in her bag from last episode. I was going to upgrade it, but I’m waiting. Do one more heal. All right, we’re going to pure breathe sprout and we’re going to run in here and show them what’s up. All right, not not as many as I was expecting. There we go. We got double attacks, so we’re going to be doing a lot more melee damage now. So, this is working out pretty well. Excellent. And then the refugees like literally right on the other side of where this guy is, so he’s the next pull. One. All right, we got a bronze rapier rapier rapier. I know people make fun of the way I say stuff, so I’m I’m trying to lean into it a little bit more just to annoy people. There we go and we got another moat. Perfect. Now, apparently the like the drop rates are bugged, right? Like there’s some bugs in the I guess for some reason they decided to change it, but there is a change. Oh, we got the rune saber tooth belt, which is the belt I was looking for, I think. Um there there was there’s a change to the way uh like used to be able to do a D4 and you always got a D4 or better item, right? Uh they changed that for some reason and now you don’t get No, you don’t. Uh so they’re going to revert that apparently or change it some way because uh there’s a lot of complaints. Look at that. Look at that son of a [\h__\h] Later armor right here in this zone. Yeah, we’re about to get an AAS. Pop down right Oh, son of a [\h__\h] that was a hole. All right. Well, we were buoyant so I should have the pop out right here, right? Hey buddy. All right, we’re going to get him dotted. Might as well kill the ranger while we’re here. He’s right up there. This this like if we unless we have terrible luck, we’re going to get this. He’s like holding the claw. He drops claw or the shrink shoulder. So, uh those are the options we have with him, but uh I’m going to switch here. And we got the shrink shoulders. Lovely. Lovely, boys. All right, you can see these are shrink with some charisma. Very good. Let’s just go ahead and put those on uh cuz we don’t have anything better. And we have to target ourselves. Boom. Look at that. I’m 12 minutes into the video and we already got the item we were looking for. Uh let’s uh since we’re here, let’s spend a little you know a little bit more time before we go back to buff on to uh get to our our weapon. Now, this is where it gets tricky. All this shit’s going to probably aggro on me. Let’s just run up here and see what happens. All right, I think we we got like I think they fixed [laughter] it. I think they fixed it. There we go. Let’s get a heal going. Come on. Oh my god, I’m like taking damage like I owe money to somebody. Here. Defensive. Let’s get going. Let’s get a tracking window. Let’s put that right there. I love that right there. That’s perfect. And I sure as hell don’t like that. There we go. Oh, wait. Wait. Wait. Wait. We want to go divine divine quickly. There we go. Divine will double our heals for not much extra cost. Perfect. Oh, yeah. The versatility. And we lost thorns. We want to get that on as soon as possible. Let’s see if I can get that real quick. Oh, we got a bandana. Let me loot that for now. I’ll go look and see what that was. That’s probably not the item I wanted though. I think it’s a helmet. I don’t know why my attack got turned off. All right. So, we got a bandana tier one which is Oh, this is a nice helmet. Four AC, four strength, four decks. All right. Let’s put that son of a [\h__\h] on real quick. Since we’re wearing cloth, destroy that. There we go. Look at that. Already doing well. Let’s do another heal. Looking Looking good now. These are all rangers. They’re kind of annoying to fight. There we go. I guess we can go pop over there and kill the brewer too while we’re here. I mean, typically like you get everything when you come up here. I guess they fixed it. There we go. And look at these just massive 134 crippling blows. It’s just insane. All right. Now we need to go back down there. Uh let’s see if I can get this guy here first. Cuz I don’t have a lot of resources. Let’s go back into recovery. And perfect, right? Like we’re doing uh we’re doing well. Um experience is a little bit on the low side here, I would say, for what we’re doing. But I guess it’s you know it’s the new normal, right? I got to I got I have to just accept this is what they they intended for the experience to be. I don’t know. Like it felt so much more fun in the private beta. But uh here we are. You know what I’m going to do? I feel like I need to swap this one and this one. Feel like it looks better like that. I don’t know. >> [cheering] >> And then this is going to be sort by alpha reverse. There we go. That should pop all the names to the top. All right. Let’s do another sprout. We got This is going to be a three pull. Uh it’s going to be a little rough, so let’s get full health first. And we are we are in defensive, so we do have that going for us. We do have four AAs, so that means I can buy this one, train all. Oh, we’re done with Symphonic Aura. Perfect. So, let’s get rid of that. Let’s get rid of this. This is going to now become thistles. Let’s put that one right there. And we need another bard song. So, do we get another damage over time? Not yet. Chant of battle. Chant of battles, here. Haste, we already got haste. Uh, let’s go with cellos, just until we get something better. All right, so we got that. That’s That’s actually pretty nice. Did it again. Did it again. All right, let’s get Oh, another refugee. I forgot all about him. All right. So, now we’re done with the bard uh level of stuff. We want to probably finish our spell slots out next. Or, you know, pick up quick buff. One of those is, you know, probably the option for us at this point. Uh, I plan on keep chugging these uh >> [laughter] >> thick AA potions. I think that’s what I’m going to probably spend all my tokens on. Uh, but I feel like that just makes it feel more fun to me. So, you know, I want to get that stuff done faster than slower, right? There we go, that’s good. All right, we got another one of these. I’m just going to merge it cuz it doesn’t really matter. Oh, almost fell down again. That’s so dumb. All right, let’s get everybody lined up here. I’m going to dot this guy. There we go, and then you see, we’re getting some pretty decent damage there. And uh sprouting heals about to pop us. There we go. Uh, let me click my spell tab here. So, we are at 15. So, next we get butcher. Uh dizzy wind commons is 17 barb new damage shield that’s 17. And a new heal at 19. Yeah, and another heal at 20. All right, we got a breastplate. Look at that loveliness. I mean, lovely. All right, what is this? Mud stained tunic? Get bent. Uh destroy that. What is this thing here? This is 16 AC. Oh my gosh. Look at that. We’re at 130 AC now. 130 or 350 cap. Soft cap. So, we’re doing pretty well. Now, if we look at the uh guards of Qeynos, right? We’re still scowls, but we’re almost threatening. So, we might uh might spend a little bit of time here. Getting a little bit higher. It doesn’t take long. I guess one of these is healing the other one. I don’t know. Perfect. Oh, auto update. Boom. All right, sham shooters back up. And the master brewer is up over there on the other side. So, we need to go kill him, too. Uh bronze short and spear auto sell. There we go. We’re at one platinum on that one. Another sprout. And we’re good to go. Not too bad. And our the shield of thistles is down, so let’s fix that. And we got another elite on us. Not sure where he Oh, he came from, but I’m rooted, I guess. My attack keeps getting turned off by them. Is my uh Yeah, I don’t know. I must be automatically hitting the button and I’m not used to the auto attack on thing. Okay, let’s get this one dotted. And that’s good. All right, so what do we need for the next spell slot? That is going to be two AA, so once we get another AA, we can grab one of those. Perfect. All right, let’s grab this guy. Let’s try and see if we can get him without having like the whole zerg them up on us, you know? And let’s get heal. Might have to do some more healing here. These things are uh doing a lot more damage than I was expecting, but uh we’re slowly slowly getting better, right? Like it’s uh it’s definitely a a process. I want his bow is kind of really what the I want from him. And then uh then we’ll go kill the brewer, I think, since we got the breastplate and the uh belt from this guy already. All right, let’s get right behind him. Dot him. Probably dot them all, right? Like if I can get it on them all. I seem to be recovering pretty quick and recovery. I should switch targets. I don’t know why I didn’t. All right, they’re all dotted. Sprout and heal is just so nice. I leave the spell effects on so I can actually see when it lands, right? Cuz I’m not looking at that. Heal window. Oh, but so far so good. And just like cleaving in between heals is just like so broken. It is good. All right, we got a plus one on plus two on that now. Wow. That’s five AC, five strength, right? All right, we got two bandannas in a row. All right, the overseer’s back up. All right, well, this is the hardest part of the zone, by the way. So, uh we definitely able to come in here at 15 and just plow it down after uh you know, a little bit of time in Befallen. So, that is not bad. >> [groaning] >> And I would expect these to give more experience. I feel like I feel like it’s a lot less than I’m remem- remembering, but I guess that’s just how it is. All right, what is that? That is the belt. Perfect. Let’s go ahead and I’m going to auto merge these from now on. And then we got plus two somehow. Uh it gives us five. All right, perfect. And some heals. All right, this is this has been a successful little uh 5-minute side tour, right? Uh Uh, now have a shrink item so we don’t have to worry about that moving forward. Uh, it probably wasn’t going to be a big deal, but I was honestly getting annoyed having to duck through all the all the doors in Befallen, so it is uh it is what it is there, but not too bad. Sprouting heal hit, grab another one. Does that crit yet? No. But, I mean, it’s it’s pretty consistent damage or uh healing damage, right? It’s very consistent. That’s very consistent to that. 2% chance is pretty rare for the dots with druid. There we go. That one’s dead, and we’ll do a heal. What do we have? Uh, 69 platinum. Perfect. Get another heal. This one I don’t think this will ding us to 16, but what’s 16 got to unlock? Butcher block. All right. Now, it’s 17. Bard gets sneak. And then, we can uh we can sneak. So, I won’t have to do the uh the rogue hustle anymore. I’ll just be able to just go straight in. And uh buy spells. Spells. So, that’ll that’ll make things a lot easier. Because everything’s right there in the XR town. >> [sighs] >> You don’t have to think about it. I feel like this is pretty good. Now, a build I want to try is warrior shaman necro. I did shadow knight shaman necro a lot, And people are telling me I should try Warrior instead. And so, we’re going to give that a shot. Careless lightning, what is that? That is a nuke. All right. We don’t really have a spell slot for that right now, so son of a [\h__\h] Like every little hole I’m falling into. Or is that right here? All right. >> [groaning] >> Now, of course, here we got drum and then we got loot uh there. We’re probably going to have to switch this to another primary. I we need I think I needed another one of those maces. Yeah, I did get one. All right, so what is this? We’re going to have to >> [groaning] >> upgrade these. Let’s do that real quick. All right, I guess I can’t put anything in a small box. Okay. Did I get that right? All right, this bag was supposed to be over here. I don’t know what I did there. All right, let’s just auto merge these. No point in doing anything else with it. There we go. All right, storage currencies we’ll scrap and phantasmal. We’ve got this to plus one. I will grab this one. Get this to plus one. And then we’ll we’ll do plus two. There we go. We got plus two there. And then plus two there, which then will go over here to our worn weapon. Merge that. Now, we don’t need these boots anymore, so let’s do this. Open up our equipment storage, throw in there. And then go to our exaltations, let’s grab our horn. And we’re going to there. What did I do wrong? All right, there we go. That works. You didn’t see that. You didn’t see it. You truly didn’t. It didn’t happen. That didn’t happen either. I’m about to get stuck in the wall, ain’t I? There we go. Let’s go like this and then go like that. And then attack this guy. Oh my gosh. All right, so this will give us another chance at another uh another belt or another breastplate, so that’ll be nice to have. Let’s go ahead and get a heal. Now, I don’t think we got a we got the plus four on that yet, so that’s good. But these are both plus two, so that gives me the the ability to get, you know, an extra seven wisdom along with uh having my brass focus on there now, so I believe at 18? Yeah, Dinnin’s disruptive discord is at 18. So, when we hit 18, we’re going to want to uh switch out probably uh the run speed for that. We got another belt. Not too bad there. We’re going to want to switch out that uh run speed for the other dot, which will give us another like 20 dots per, you know, 20 damage per tick AoE, right? This one’s 13 at the moment, so uh not too bad there. And we could probably go empower, right? And it should empower our bard dots. I don’t know why my attack keeps coming off. Let’s look and see if it actually does anything. So, that was doing Yeah, got a little extra damage from that bard dots. So, that’s perfect. And I’m not really going out of my way to cast other things, so just heals. So, those are getting powered, too. So, that’ll be That’ll be easy extra damage we can get out of that since we don’t really need the mana right now. That guy going. Oh, we already got sprout on us. There we go. All right. So, you can definitely see like [laughter] how strong this build is, right? Like, let’s go back into offensive. Uh let’s Let’s actually merge that. Where am I at? What am I This guy’s a mage. So, he’s going to be actually the hardest mob in this zone, probably. There we go. And then uh we want to we want to heal. He’s going to be nuking us down. Yeah, but he’s gone. Mode of minor potential. Now, we’re going to grab this guy. Now, the multi-class mobs and the named mobs and the raid mobs all have bonus I I why I turned my attack stuff. Um they all have bonus um What’s the word I’m looking for here? Bonus um chance to drop motes and stuff, so. Definitely this probably stupid. They’re all in the wrong positions, too. All right. I’m going to go defensive again. We should get a sprout here in a second. I’m going to pop recovery. I just need this dumb gnoll to die. There we go. Switch over here. I’m going to auto merge these from now on. We’re plus three on the band down. Jesus, six strength. Six AC. >> [groaning] >> Yeah, we’re in a one and we just got a two to drop, right? So, people are complaining. They must have hot fixed it already. Uh but it was it doesn’t feel good, I guess, when you’re doing a harder difficulty and you get stuff from the previous difficulty, right? Uh this might be the end of us for Yeah, there we go. All right. Which is fine, right? Like we can go right here. We can kill this guy again. Like I don’t I’m not stopping. >> [laughter] >> I’m not stopping to med. Oh my god, why would I do that? I’m just going to buff as I go. There we go. We got another agility ring. I’m just going to merge to the one we already have. Go up here. Attack this guy. And then we’ll head back down there. I want the bow. I think that’s the only item I really care about while we’re here. Yeah, the bow the bow is uh the bow is like probably the only one. Uh there’s some rusty shoulder pads I want, but that’s for when we start charming later on to lower the mob uh our charmed mobs resist, but not a big deal right now. All right, >> [sighs] >> let’s go back down. Should be should be able to just go like right across. Let’s Let’s actually kill the this guy over here first, the brewer. Let’s do that. Something a little bit different, right? There we go. It looks like all we’re missing is a face and a ring, so. And I believe we can get our face in the Gina about 28 and we can pick up rings in the Gina, too, so. Won’t be too bad, I guess. And these are starting to turn blue at 16. Oh, that’s that’s uh But, what this does is this is going to get us you know a little bit higher level, so when we go over back to uh Befallen, which I’m bound there, right? Yeah, I’m bound in West Commonlands, so I can just gate right back there. And uh Oh, we got two AAs, perfect. Which I believe we can get a next spot. There we go. Another spell slot. I cha- I will switch that down there here just a second. Just so I can put something else on my bar for buffing. All right, let’s get rid of that. Let’s put it down here. Movement solos and then right here we’ll grab skin like rock. And let’s go ahead and reduce thistles. And skin like rock. And let’s just stand like right here. I don’t know what we’re going to fight right here with all these mobs right in this area, but it should be good. And perfect. So we have one AA and I feel like it’s worth getting fury of magic, which will give us another 2% crit chance on spells. Non non-dots though. It’s just for critical damage spells, which we’re not really casting right now, but might as well just pick it up. I mean doesn’t really matter too much at this point. And then let’s see here. We got two charges left. Let’s go ahead and pre-buy the next potion. Let’s loot that. I don’t know if we’ll need it. A mammoth skin, I don’t know what that’s for. Perfect. All right, we picked up that. And let’s do this. I know I I was curious if they updated this the hunters achievements for these things. Um I don’t even see Blackbarrow. There’s Fallen. Yeah, they didn’t up they didn’t update them. Uh I did I don’t even see What is the real name of this zone? Yeah, I don’t even see it. There’s an elite Shaman. So, I I thought they were going to update those before release, but uh I guess not. Let’s get this. So, that means you’ll have to go back through and kill all the names again uh to get the achievements for uh doing all this, which is kind of kind of annoying, I don’t honestly. But, uh now there’s no more placeholders, I think in most zones. So, they they went ahead and went forward with that. So, that’ll be good. Let’s go ahead and go back to offensive now. I’ll be worth putting damage spell on our bar, but I’m flying by the the seat of my pants here. There we go. This guy’s almost dead. I’m going to die him and then switch. And then we got a fourth. And then Sprout needs to go on ASAP before we get a sprouted ourselves. Oh my god. Now, I popped evasive. Uh which I should have been popping all along, but I I had forgotten I had evasive since we’re Bard, right? So, Bard is like all the all the melee classes get evasive except the warrior for some reason. I feel like that’s an oversight. But, we can switch back. That just makes it so they pretty much can’t hit us for a short amount of time. To prevent death. So, that’s good. All right, auto sell that. Don’t fall down the hole. Drop down here. Kill him. And let’s see. He’s dotted. I’m not sprouted, so let’s get sprouting. Sprouting. Sprouting time. And we got another sh- a shroud, which is just more soul. More AC upgrade. Excellent. All right, so what are we doing now? We got our bashes are doing normal damage. Our slashes are doing 100 plus. Excellent. Now, I think when we go back to Befallen, I’ll probably do a a a tier one so I don’t have to do with the running uh the running uh willow wisps and stuff. So, that’s going to be uh probably what we do. All right, we’re getting smoked cuz I didn’t heal. We’re going to go into evasive. Sprout. And then swarm and then we’re out of endurance already, so we’re going to pop balanced. And we’re going to heal. Pop divine and double heal. Excellent. Once you Once you get everything set up, it’s pretty easy to uh to do. There we go. Another bandanna. And we killed the other guy at the same time. So, we killed two mobs at the same time, right? Like that’s That’s how crazy it is, right? 20 points till threatening. We’re almost there. All right. Let’s go back down here. And looks like we beat the spawns there. So, let’s uh let’s kind of sprout. And we’ll do one more cycle here and then we’ll call it on this place. I’m not I don’t really like I don’t really like this zone that much and I don’t really care if we get the boat too much. Uh I do plan on coming back here with uh you know, the next the next set, right? I plan on leveling through a lot of these zones, picking up all the items we didn’t get. But, I really wanted the shrink item cuz I was just getting too annoyed. It’s truly the the uh the pure reason of coming here. I you know, if I get annoyed by something, I usually try to fix it immediately. So, definitely fun. There we go. There he is. Let’s tag him with a dot. And we’re going to stay in divine, I think. Maybe divine’s like the the play for this. But, 16 Let’s see here. See if there’s any spells I’m missing that I need to go buy. So, magical monologue, see invis, sustenance, terrorize animal, dizzy wind, underwater breathing. Yeah, there’s a bunch. All right, let’s get that heal. Let’s get more sprout. And then, uh we’re going to go back to Befallen, I think, for the next episode. Um now, I think what I’ll do is I’ll just kind of pre-farm a little bit, maybe level up a few times while going through, cuz it’s just going to be mindless grinding of the the the levels we already did. Um and then, when we get down to that last room, you know, we’ll pop in and stuff like that and do do a few cycles together before we uh we’re done with Befallen. I think that’s really going to be the the best way. Cuz otherwise, you’re going to get like a 2-hour video of me just like killing the same stuff over and over and getting, you know, bored talking. >> [laughter] >> It it gets kind of repetitive. Uh What is level tearing them apart? Oh, he’s he’s killing dark elves. Nice. I don’t know why that auto attack is getting turned off. I I feel like I’m not pushing any buttons, but who knows. There we go. You got to spam tracking to get the uh skill updates, so. All right, but I think that’s uh that’s it. Well, I mean, we killed another, you know, another name, right? We got another belt. Not much there. So, I’m going to go back to Befallen. I’m going to grind up for a little bit, get us closer to uh you know, 20’s where we need to be for the next one. And then uh we’ll continue on our path following the plan that I set forth, right? It’s just going to be you know, mindless grinding right now. Uh nothing too fancy and whatnot like that. But uh yeah, there we go. Got another mote. Got to farm up some motes and stuff, so it’ll be fun. But there we go. Blackbarrow conquered and uh we’re doing well. We’re doing very well. So, thank you very much for watching. And please have a fantastic day.
