The rest can be a combination of reds and yellows. Hardy Companion and Master of Beasts aren't so great. I'd only take Hardy Companion if I go solo something really hard and want the bog lurker (five blues required).Ravanelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03447777640056476366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5922857679980740630.post-34622665290038786582012-09-28T14:37:38.296+02:002012-09-28T14:37:38.296+02:00Hehe, not sure if I'd like to stack lore-maste...Hehe, not sure if I'd like to stack lore-masters if I'd want to bear tank. Without burgs/champs to drop aggro on it, that will be an interesting play of Inner Flame, rotating Roaring Challenge and bumping aggro around. You're probably right, though, weird things are often fun things to do. :D<br /><br />And hurray for Goldie, my favourite bear of the Ettenmoors!Ravanelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03447777640056476366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5922857679980740630.post-17729218177311258272012-09-26T23:39:54.499+02:002012-09-26T23:39:54.499+02:00Mines a polar bear I called Icykill... heh...
Out...Mines a polar bear I called Icykill... heh...<br /><br />Out of all the pets so far, I'm getting the most use out of the bear. Apart from a tendency to sit on fallen enemies making looting sometimes an issue, he does some quite reliable DPS and is getting on towards triple the morale of my LM. Even flanks fairly often.<br /><br />I know you've touched on this before for traits (this is for solo work and assuming two blue) - hardy companion and healer...? Master of beasts and improved flanking...?<br /><br />Choices, choices...<br />Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06278950336161773752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5922857679980740630.post-62451897371272609832012-09-24T22:30:01.405+02:002012-09-24T22:30:01.405+02:00Oh yeah... and good luck with school!

You should take 3 Loremasters and do Pits T2. Or Dargnahk. I'd do it myself, but I doubt I'll get my LM from 62 to 75 and geared before RoR. So I must stick to all captain and all warden instances.<br /><br />Last night, Goldie tanked the Tyrant in TR.

I'm in a routine and the homework is slightly less, so it's better now. I'm still hoping it will be a bit less work in some months when I get different subjects.

More realistic than in SWTOR, but no thankful subject to photographers. Still, I thought dark pictures would be better than no pictures. <br /><br />And...
