If you haven't already unlocked the extra profession slot for "Complete a task with 100% speed boost" (not sure exactly what it is named as I already unlocked it on all my alts & can't see it anymore) I found a fairly easy and relatively in-expensive way to do it at profession level 1...

Go to the Auction House and buy 4 blue/rare crafting assets (I used "Master Mailsmith). Then run the level 1 Mailsmithing crafting quest "Mass Iron Rings and Scales forging" with all 4 assests to get a 100% boost (25%x4) and it will unlock an extra slot. The assets are fully tradeable so you can unlock it on all your alts who have any crafting (even when just starting crafting with no professions over level 1). I was going to try to do it with 2 Epic/Purple Hero's but this was significantly cheaper & easier... I wish I had know about it since day 1 as all of my leaderships would be 20 faster (currently about level 18 on most of my alts).

Ya i did that with 4 blue platesmiths. just passed them around to each guy. I wish I would have done it much sooner, my guys are just hitting level 17 leadership. Goal is to hit 20 by September on all 7 chars. Not sure if they will though, leveling really starts to slow down.

So i clearned Epic CC today playing the CW it was pretty rough till you get the hang of it. Good CC makes the fights easy. My main is a 12k GS CW i basically can chain cast arcane siguiliarty the rest of just kills the bosses and i stand in the Astral shield my clerics do. I have 1 astral shield that casts at the DC feet and the other DC drops it at the tank

Very heartening to hear. A few questions:

- What is your full party make up (GF+DCx2+CWx2 ?) ?
- What pets/companions you are using (ioun stones, etc)?
- What server are you on?

It sounds like you are using the approach I was advocating with at least one Astral Shield on the ranged group (2+DCs & any CWs) and at least one Astral Shield on the Tank & any companions/melee.

I assume you were casting at least those Astral Shields with Divinity on.

Were you using ISBoxer KeyMaps to accomplish the Divinity, targeting, & timing or were you switching back and forth between characters or what?

If you were using ISBoxer KeyMaps for the background healing, can you upload them to the Forums for us to study/share ?

Note: One way to share KeyMaps is to right click on them in ISBoxer and select "Copy Key Map to Clipboard" and then past that into a text notepad file and then use the upload attachment link at the bottom of the "Post A Reply" screen when posting.

basically i have a keybind that all in 1 button activates divinity targets the self(healer) then casts Astral shield. the other DC's keybind was to target the tank and cast astral shield this way it drops on the tank. i had keybinds to strafe the DC's and the CW out of red. So if a red circle opened up and i know its gonna be the type that does damgae over time after the big hit ill dodge them if its an aoe that just big hit and goes away i just let them eat it in side the astral shield and then health pot.

Very heartening to hear.

I was unable to get the cleric to target self and drop the Astral Shield on Self consistently without manually making the DC look down and cast it.

Can you copy your combat related Key Map folder(s) and upload so we can study the key-binds?

If you do this at the Key Map level you will get all the individual key binds in that Key Map "Folder".

Just for the record, Biggcarl's binds were added to NeverBoxer 1.1's setup. Thanks, Biggcarl! :)
