Froglock Racial Tradition - even worth considering?Follow

#1 May 23 2006 at 2:05 PM Rating: Decent
OK, first off, if I were to read this post I would tell the poster to play what looks best to you. You'll regret going with a race you dont like the looks of.
So Im still asking myself why Im posting this.

When I played last, I two boxed a pair of Sorcerers. I tried out Ratonga and Gnome for Pitiful Plea and Confusing Bauble. They seemed to work well. If one guy pulled aggro, I could pop it and switch aggro to the other. Spread out the damage on a bad pull allowing both to keep nuking the mob until dead.
So this talent seemed worth considering.

Now Im curious about the Froglock AggroReducer/AE Stun/Teleport.
Now I will be threeboxing (Warlocks most likely) and am wondering how this would work.
If I pop it on all three, would they all end up in the same spot from the port? I guess its random, but maybe linked somehow to where youre standing, and with them close together maybe they all end up in the same random area?
Anyone know how this works?

Besides the aggro reducers, I see no reason to choose any race for its traditions. In fact I may just end up going Ogre or Iksar purely for looks and attitude.

Comments appreciated.
Thanks,
Mal

Traits mean very little in this game and most will not gimp or better your toon above anyone else's other then some that add a % of something to your toon.

As in some toons get a 5% bonus tp HP which at 1 to 20 level add very little but at higher levels with higher buffs that 5% can be a chunk of hp.

I have that trait, but never used it. It is basically pointless solo, not really sure if it has any good use in a group.

Thanks guys.

I did like the aggro reducer, as it saved my life quite a bit. If Froglock one sent all three of my guys to the same location, that would be fantastic. If it scattered them, that would be very bad.

Besides the aggro reducing talents, I agree that they are insignificant. Honestly not sure if these abilities scale as you level.

Ahh well. Ogre and Iksar look cool.

Thanks,

I was never thrilled with any of my froglok traits. I got the one for enduring breath but seeing as it only lasts 3 minutes it didn't really do much (although it was enough to swim out to the boat for those two heritage quests). I also got the one that gives you a damage shield but it only works sometimes and lasts for like 30 seconds, hardly worthwhile.

I think there is another one that cures poison but at higher levels it can't remove anything.
