Pikeman Archive

Ok .. most you pikemen have been having a hard time (god knows i have been)

but i have somewhat discovered something that the vets knew all along and new ppl should know..

pikets+buffs.. a godsend (also helps to be a ch that can handle atleast a graul mauler..


buffs i got that made it awsome (went the whole evening and am now 2/0/4/3 from 1/0/3/3..

1. Doc buffs.. the whole shebang
2. Entertainer buff.. but not the dancer one .. the musician one (you get insane mind regen)
3. now .. eat the following.. Peace of mind (drink) Rychate (food) correlian Fried Icecream ...

now your mind is boosted largely (allmost as much as a master entertainer can .. and you get even more mind regen..

I was wearing a set of HIGH encumberance composite and i could not get my ham bars at all as i spammed special after special.

I did this with my nightsister uberdropped vibrolance.. and player made lva/vibrolance.. the exp was just rolling in. Once the entertainer buff ran out i had to watch my mind and as soon as the buffs were gone i ate the trio again and could keep on spamming special after special...

note: dont eat the food untill you get to your targets... (why waste buff time traveling?)


Also one more thing i noticed after i took off my composite.. it allmost seemed like i was swinging my pike 2x faster without armor than was with.. (and no it was not the training as i din't train untill after all my buffs were gone and i went back to theed to train..

Yea. Buffs help a tremendous amount. I have contemplated getting master doctor so I could have them whenever I wanted. I find that spice helps quite a bit also. Depending on what it is I am fighting I may or may not use a neutron pixie, or muon gold.

I think maybe the drink you refer to is Breath of Heaven? I'm a Master Chef and have no clue what "Peace of Mind" is..

Breath of Heaven buffs about +500 to your HAM secondaries, as does ryshcate (closer to 350-400). Not sure why you recommend the fried ice cream over a second rhyscate though, as the ice cream only buffs focus. I also find Tatooine sunburn is almost more useful for me as pikeman, as I don't typically have 24/7 access to a doctor and the higher bonuses help me tremendously.

Another useful Drink is Angerian Fishak Surprise, which buffs your mind by around 500. This actually acts as a mind heal, which many people do not know about.

I'm a Master Chef / Master Pikeman on Starsider. I'll be glad to show my pike-brethren the benefits of some good food, send me a tell (Shadrach) if you're interested in a sample.

demand for food on lowca has gotten so insane that my friend (master chef) is quitting ... he can't keep the stuff in stock .. one guy came in and dropped over 1 mil to buy every piece of food.. we keep him stocked but he cant even get us food soemtimes due to the demand.. it's gotten too much like work for him and he just does not want to go tend the farms ..

I don't blame him ...

but looks like people have awoken to the food buffs... In my opinion much better than drugs as there is no downer, or incap.

Hey since i can't get a chef to respond on my server can you list excatly what food buff, Mind and mind secondaries.

mealstrom did u play AC2 on coldeve????????

no i did not..


The foods that help the living hell of mind pools...

1. Fihank (but adds to mind pool)
2. vegasparine (adds to focus)
3. Rysche (something like that.. adds to willpower)


if made with good quality items you will see significant increases in mind pools ..

i coud wear composite spam my specials and not worry. heck i even could heal pets and keep going..

also .. stack entertainer buffs on this and you are a lva weilding god (don't forget your doc buffs!!!!!

Oh and my friend Master Chef jyles is back!

he's getting custom orders.. go visit his vendor in babelon ... he'll cook ya up a binbending plate of food hehe Pun intended!
