    The xp reward might make it a bit more bearable, but that doesn't change the fact that jobe scientists is still a badly designed piece of crap. 95% of the the time you spend on the quest is still repeatedly running back and forth between upper and lower scheol. Worst quest design I've ever seen bar none

    No shenanigans. I started it on my crat at 195, and ended up about 3 220-hard mobs from 203. Was certainly less painful than the previous two times I've done that quest, before large rewards were added.

    A lot of what makes that quest so horrible is the way NPCs screw you around by just sending you to other NPCs, sometimes bouncing you back and forth between NPCs you've been to before. It'd be nice if some of that could be looked at and modified.

    would rather have to run back and forth across scheol (not so bad once you have key) then have them all next to each other and the objectives for there quests.

    Going around, killing some things on the way while getting annoyed at these damn scientists not telling you everything at once and making you run around > having them all stood next to each other meaning its just basically:

    Talk to number 1
    Talk to number 2
    Talk to number 1 again
    ???
    Profit

    Where's the fun in that? sure its faster but you may as well just have a big button that says "Free stuff" to press.

    Who says you have to talk to all those guys umpteen times? Make it shorter but harder, with some nice challenging fights scaled to the users level...

    Just finished this for the 1st time, and , yes, it was as bad as I had heard. I would say combine the 2, add 1% reflect (4% total) and allow it to go in any slot. THAT would be worth losing the AR.

    So you basically would like to have one of the best pieces of equipment in game allowing you to get 100% reflect (aka no dmg at all) vs any dmg type used by every sold all the time in his career, that comes from quest chain that is targeted towards tl4 players and gives other professions as marvelous rewards as sheol map (advy), summoned weapon that is easily ODed by howlet (mp), taunt tool that has no uses (enf), nano that makes your pets smaller so … they are smaller (???, engi), a shield that you can put in offhand so you cant use weapon in main hand (keep) etc. Now that is a totally balanced and well thought idea, I support this!

    Percentage based stats in AO are usually based on skill without equipment, perks, etc... See MA NR buffs.

    So, a 2% AAO buff would probably be 2% of your IP'd skill.

    Too bad you can't IP AAO
