This took me forever and gave me gear that’s worse than my blue PvP set, but it was still kinda fun to do and I’m glad I finally finished it. For anybody on Mankrik who helped out a dwarf pally with smelly facial hair at some point over the last 5-6 months, you are awesome and I appreciate you!
I know, nobody cares… I do 
congrats .5 is hard as hell to get and is it really worse then your pvp blues? damn why is it so difficult to get then? lol
Thanks
And yea, it seems to be. The stats on the pvp blues seem to be a little bit higher. It’s fairly close the PvP is slightly better and a lot easier to get. I think t0.5 is really good if you only look at PvE though, some of those pieces are comparable with stuff you get out of MC and a little worse than t2 (though not 100% sure).
I think Blizzard just made the PvP gear a little too good back in the day, haha.
Congrats, I also did the 0.5 on this lock. The hardest part for me was the duke of cinders, or maybe the ogres in DM:N. Not many groups for either of those. What was it for you?
I honestly thought it was going to be the duke but as I was trying to figure out how to unlock that quest line, there was a random advertisement in Silithus for someone looking for a group. So I pretty much freeloaded off all their efforts, lol. The ogres also weren’t too bad for me because my pally can tank LBRS so I just ran that until I got all the beads. You’d think from all those runs I’d have a UBRS key by now but nope!
For me, I got pretty bogged down in two parts… the first was just getting the shoulders and chest. I was blocked on the shoulders for a month or two, maybe? I’m on Mankrik so there’s a lot less folks on that server. I jumped in whatever UBRS groups I could find but I think it still took like 15 or more runs to drop? The second was the quest on the island north of Theramore. I couldn’t solo it and it took me a while to find a group, but I found two really nice people who offered to help me out, even though they didn’t need anything there. If anybody ever needs help with that on Mankrik, I for sure have some karma to repay! 
As far as quest lines go, coming from someone who doesn’t super enjoy questing, I actually enjoyed it. It just took you all over and had you touch every endgame instance, I think? I definitely recommend doing it once to say you did, but it’s certainly a journey.
Oh yeah, I forgot you could get the beads from the lbrs ogres. I killed the ones outside DM for hours and hours, must be sub 1% chance to drop from them.
The warlock 4 piece is really cool though. I mean I would be better off with items that do more damage. But it is fun to have a rogue stun you only to get horrified.
Funny, cause those are the two pieces of t0 I’m missing. I don’t really want to finish the questline, but I want the libram from DME.
I’ve done the 0.5 quest twice as im a set collector, and I would say the hardest part is 100% getting all your items. I did it on mage and priest, mage its not too bad to get all your items, but you really need to set a group up to get the devout shoulders from UBRS.
Grats on finishing a really fun quest line!
