Melee cant solo??? Are you feeling ok?? Im a 65 Sk and I solo all over the place.. In natimbi (farming for augs), Fire at tables which is around 16% per kill aa, or if im just bored I go to like PoI, PoD or PoN- not the best exp but real easy and fast.. Yes some forms of casters are better at soloing but thats just because they dont get hit and well they cant get hit cause then theyd be dead.. Saying that only casters can solo and maybe a ranger can solo is just stupid, i dont know what server you play on but obviously its one where ppl have no skill.. BTW, if you think melee cant solo, I soloed Gore and Talendor...
Every class can solo, it's just a matter of figuring out a suitable style.
Warriors can't solo using the same tactics that, say, a mage can because they're not mages.
Up until recently, I had felt that it was impossible to effectively solo as a Ranger. Then I realized that parts for arrows are not expensive, and Root is a good spell to use. On an average kill, I don't even have to engage the mob until it's under 40% life, and there are mobs (ones that actually give XP) I can kill without meleeing.

I dont know about rogue, but i know I personnaly can solo with a warrior, and very easily solo with an SK. So rather it may be diffucult to solo my warrior sometimes its still oh so very possiable
32000 damage outdoes anything you can cast. BTW nice dress =)
And I am just kidding -- Rangers only solo better than anyone else with headshot in places like Nurgia and the beginning of Seb. Otherwise casters solo way better-- wizzys quading is just scarry.
Ok did this item have 30% or 36% haste at one point and then get nerfed down to 26%? I'm asking because on the weekend where they had the GM events that were suppose to be dropping items that no longer drop my monk recieved one of these cloaks. On items like that circle that casts invis in .1 seconds you could tell nerf and prenerf but there would be no way to tell off the bat with a haste item. If anyone knows anything for sure please post...
Just ot one tonite. I also got the silvery belt of contention. Just wondering if I wanna keep both cuz I dunno if the effect of the Haste stacks...anyone has infos about it?

Posted:Nov 07 2002 at 10:42 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) how do people come up with the numbers like 26% haste and 28% haste?? how. click on the effect above. It says its based on level.
It's an item effect, it doesn't give a crap what level you are. People say recommended level affects the worn effects but I know even that to be total BS as far as I can tell. Anyway the level of haste is set on the item, has nothing to do with who is wearing it...
d00d, thats the "spell" haste(the one a caster would cast), evry haste item has a fixed haste, which is why some items are better then others. for instance, SBC is a haste item with 26% haste.
You guys are Lame IMO for doing the old haste argument , which i personaly am totaly sick of seeing , This Item rocks no ands , ifs, Or buts about it this is a awsome haste item.
This only drops from Kor Shamans in Sebilis. No other frog drops this cloak, nor does Trakanon drop it. Just extremely rare. Even more rare than the RBG from Krups.
I just aquired this cloak tonite from an old guildmate who got Earring of Endless Speed recently and was selling this.(thanks Fanlrone) I was previously usin Silver Chitin Handwraps after banking my Hangman's Noose for a quicker haste ratio. I am usin my Siblisian Berserker Cloak with my Eyepatch of Plunder I aquired thru questing a while back and noticed quite a bit more attacks. The arguements of haste percentage aside, I think this cloak is about as good as it can get for a melee short of the super high lvl zones like Vex Thall and TOV. The stats are incredible for melees and I get 100 hps from it after the 9 stamina bonus is added to the 50 hps it has. I will use this cloak if and until I get an upgrade in haste percentage and I will prob still wear this just for the stats. Earring of Endless speed is next on my list. On Vallon you can buy this for half the price of COCW or COF's. My best advice to tanks is take advantage of this cloak if you come across it being auctioned and have the coin. It will not disappoint you in any way.
I think all of you "know it alls" out there are MORONS for arguing over a message board when I can tell,that you dont have a CLUE. This Cape IS NOT 41% HASTE Either. Grow up get a life

Posted:Aug 20 2002 at 11:16 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) First of all to Mr. Herman Scholar who would be pissed if a light blue had 6 to 8k hps, Try soloing in skyshrine sometime right past the first portal after the huge gate on the way to the maze, yes the named wyverns there are light blue and at times green at 60th level,, they have upwards to 17k hps. so enjoy master soloer. A real monk can solo the blue ones in that zone so give it a shot Pal.
This is Mogar level 60 warrior. I had a CoF and an awsome freind of mine Alissya (level 60 enchantres) looted and gave this SBC to me today. I can tell you that the SBC is IMO faster than the CoF. This is a damn good Cloak.
10% less haste means nothing to a bard who can always hit and exceed the haste cap. Plus that also means we'll still be bellow agro vs. the MT but it has enough haste to keep us above the clerics and chanters. So yea, that 10% haste makes a big difference.
Locoluk is a lozer. I had to kill him 3 times before he admitted I was stronger. lool. Yeah the SBC does drop randomly. I saw one of a Kor and another off Trak, then yet another off a Krup. I would say the Krup drop is rarer, since we killed about 200 within a month and saw only 1. Haste is now fully tested to be between 28-32 percent. Worth about 15k on TZ.
Yep, Kor Shaman dropped one today too, I didn't win it though :/ A ranger upgraded his Lizardscale cloak to this fine item, that's fine with me.. Better that someone needing item wins than this chanter, would've sold it anyways :)
Oh well, I'll probably never see one again... ever. Gratz to those that win such nice item :)
Lol! My ghetto group was here in OS entrance, just me, cleric, ranger and mage, and behold it drops!! OMG!! Off of a wizie if anything, heheh. Well needless to say I ditched my RBB and made one guildie much happier. V00T!
OMFG I seriously hope you are kidding my friend! RBB= 31% haste this (awesome) cloak=26% haste In the future i reccomend using this link for your haste information as Im pretty sure its more accurate then parses and guesswork http://pub38.ezboard.com/fmonklybusiness43508frm3.showMessage?topicID=5085.topic
I participated in a GM event in Steamfont on 23 June 2001. I was the only person around when the event started and helpd kill Meldrath for the NPCs. I was called out and awarded this cloak for my services. It is definitely faster than the FBSS I was using.

You are sadly mistaken friend, this cloak has been rewarded at GM events. There was a raid at the west commonlands druid ring of some lvl 50ish Quest characters a few weeks ago. After a long battle and many deaths. This item was dropped by one of them, along with other stuff. So don't go slamming people down. You were not there so how do you know he's lying? Don't hate him for being lucky enough for getting this item and not you. I'm sure you're the kind of person who despises that lvl 30ish guy or gal who got a title for helping Firiona Vie in Lesser Faydark when Cazic Thule came for a visit. Maybe one day you'll be lucky enough to stumble upon an event like this, but I'm sure most of us hope you're on the other side of the world, doing a corpse run into Seb or Lguk.

got one of these off a kor at zone out doing it with a shammy and druid, lucky me i was the only one there being able to make use of, even though im a bard ;)
This is among the most desirable cloaks for a melee, even more so then CoF, why? Because at 50+ you will hit haste cap with either and this has better stats by far.
