oh and miss kitty, i had a look around in matis today, made a noobchar, switched directly to yrkanis and went to the arena, as we had an event there today
i saw some scowling gingos, yea, but none of them managed to get within 40 meters of me, so i'd say it's pretty secure to travel there =)

granted i carry a pike, 2 daggers, a 2h sword, and a 2h mace at all times... but that's just cause they look nifty =)
I won't go so far to say they are the best. If you miss, Jenna help you.

Daggers are a bit too weak overall at the moment, however they are great for getting argo. They need to reduce the stam costs on using daggers and increase their damger per minute by a little.

Swords certainly rule on certain mobs. While ignore armor is nice, it costs credits. Better to change to a sword and take advantage of other attacks.

Keriann, what level are you? That's the important factor as far as what you can handle. If you ask a level 100, you'll hear they don't pose any risk at all, and can be killed in a couple hits. If someone about level 10 gave you an answer, you'd hear that they're impossible to kill. It's all relative to your level though.

No HP boosts? Yikes!

IN that case I strongly suggest killing some herbivore of the highest level that can safely be handled. After a few hours of thi,perhps in a group there will be enough mats to seel and then buy some q50 or q 70 jewelery.

A full set of q70 gives an additional 350 hp, which against gingos is a HUGE advantage! I'm guessing armor is an issue too then? Hey, it takes a little work, but it is doable, even when avoiding the local carnivores until better equipped. :)

I'm not so sure that I agree with that.

I use a 1 hand axe. In many fights I see my pike wielding brethren of comparable skill missing much more often than I do. My damage per swing is somewhat less but the higher swing rate makes up for it. This often results in my taking aggro away from the tank which is not healthy considring the light/medium armor I wear.

Actually, trolling was a poor choice of words on my part.

I believe 'baiting' would have been much more appropriate.

I have this mental image of this kitten trap that you've got this big bowl of milk right on the edge of...

I kinda liked your baiting of JJM too...unfortunately he was rather too fond of flailing around like a retard ;)
