You can proc feeding frenzy even if you miss - the mob moves laterally, say you enlarged sticken/consume. Also, been 2 or 3 months but can you target breakable with it or am i wet on the brain?

Sporadic? 20 second duration, 10 second cooldown. You don't encounter a mob to consume every 20 seconds? What are you farming? 


I mostly end up farming Rushmore because it's the easiest to solo.  Yeah, you get mobs but you also have long corridors without much in them - which comes back to the question that wasn't answered; how high does it stack?  Can you get it up to 16% and keep it there?

DDoor alone nets more distance covered in challenges anyway even if you don't use consume.


Human, bonus feat, mark of passage, done Wink  Yeah, limited DD isn't as good as unlimited DD, but DD really isn't as useful in Rushmore as the speed to cover all that distance.

And like I said, I'll probably use the 'lock for the crystal challenges where you need to make multiple trips back to the beginning.

It doesn't have stacks. It's 1% per warlock level. Typed as an action boost.

Solo or not, you'll get a lot more ing/minute from Time is Money or Buying Time once you learn them. Rushmore takes too long.

I really, really need to get off my ass and get new glasses.  I lose so much little detail like that on the in-game descriptions (that I don't have any problem reading or understanding after I check the ddo wiki).  I thought it added a percent per use of consume.  Yeah, I can see where that would make a difference.

So what do you give up to open up that tree?  The aura boosts?  It was a preliminary run and at lower level than I expect to farm, but in the first test run the aura at 5 seconds just wasn't efficient at all (even mostly relying on the bursts).  Knew going in it probably wouldn't work, but I wanted to test the water.

I know lack of DD had a lot to do with it, but my runs (numerous) for those two have been shit.  Like, lucky if I hit 200 per run shit.

Rushmore (any of them really) on the other hand, with my first rogue farmer, I could easily hit shy of 2k in 4 to 5 star run.  Yeah, it takes longer, but really only about the same amount of time it took me to run the Time challenges 3 times.  Average run was somewhere between 25-30 minutes and I'd normally let the clock run out while I was making a cup of coffee and grabbing a smoke.
