taru thf lvling question

[Breyden]

hey
i m a lvl 12 thf(100tnl) i have been having some problems with warriors in pts and my really low health. i consider my self to be one of the best equipped thfs for my lvl.
here is my gear:
brass dagger/ sapara (gunna switch to knife and scimitar) oh and i dont have dual weild iswitch back a forth on what the pt wants.
compound eye circlet
doublet +1
and all the other doublet stuff (except for headgear)
blood stone
rabbit mantle+1
brass ring (x2)
i also use an empress band when i need it
self bow
bone arrows

thats about all my gear for now
i played for six hours straight today and barely gained a lvl cause all the parties i got in were nooby pts. every time i came back to came with a lizard or something i would run through waiting for the war to voke it off me but they just sat there and watched me died. i died alot and therefor didnt get anywhere. i m gunna try again tommorow hopefully the pts will be better. this is the only day so far where there hae been alot of shitty pts. all the other day the pts have been decent or really good.
but some advice would be appreciated
thx in advance

Re: taru thf lvling question

other than macro-ing /p <call> {Provoke} {Warrior}! {Provoke}! I would invest in some selbina milk for minor HP regen. Won't save you from a stupid player, but might save you long enough for your macro to get through to their thick skulls

Re: taru thf lvling question

it sounds like you just ended up in a bad pt. if all else fails, a thf can still solo to 15. it's slow, but you can still do it (in konshtat highlands or la thein plateau).
If you're going to solo for xp, keep your seek party flag raised. im sure you will find a great pt soon enough.

seriously, how hard is it to provoke? lol

Re: taru thf lvling question

yea i know its like the easiest thing to do, when the puller comes back voke it off him.lol
i was in a pt the other day and it sucked at first but i had nothing beter to do so i stuck it out , then all of a sudden we got a wicked good whm and a good war and everyhting but i could only stay on for like 1/2 hr so i didnt get that much xp.
if all pts fail i think i will solo to 15 cause i got empress band

is there any food i should be eating now or later like around 20 or so that is like a must for thf?

Re: taru thf lvling question

meat jerky will help to increase your damage.
meat mythkabobs do too, they are better but they cost more.

if you're rich, squid sushi will boost the power of your sneak attact-trick attack, but i don't reccomend you start using that until lvl 30. after 30, squid sushi is the best food for a thf to use.

Re: taru thf lvling question

You just gotta tough it out man. By the time you hit 20 most of the idiots will have been weeded out (usually). By the time you hit Yuhtunga / Yhoatoar you will have parties that work quite well together.

For example, I joined a party yesterday at lvl 27, and the party was so great that we were able to take it from Yhoatoar, to Altepa, and from 27-33 in one sitting. Just gotta keep at it man.
