Hi,
I play as Genji(bard)/Joooooja(war) on SoD. I've been leveling up with same core of players for about a 2 weeks now and we have been doing most of the content available to our level. I would just like to talk about some of the adepts that we have done and how they may be properly tuned. We ussually have everyone either on the max engage or 1-2 below if there a cleric. All groups always had atleast (Bard, 2 Rangers, 1 shamen, 2 clerics, Beastmaster) With my Warrior Tanking the adepts past 32. Gore/Lockjaw/Haunted Treant were tanked with SK's.
30.Goretusk (Used 8 Normally): was pretty easy to raid and his loot fit properly(Although a slightly weak and not too diverse). I think this encounter is fine. (2 wins, 0 wipes)
32.Lockjaw (8-10): This encounter is really too easy for the level requirement. He has some diserable drops for all kinds of classes, but he needs to be beefed up. The only thing that can possibly throw you off is that he will get stuck in a tree when you kill him so you cant loot him. Besides that I have never been worried about killing him even with an undermanned group. (3 wins 0 losses)
32.The Haunted Treant (Tried 8 then kept working up): After doing Lockjaw he will make you cry. We wiped probably over 8 times trying to kill him. The first few times we spent time just trying to figure out where his Area effect was front or radius. His damage spike are hard to control and his lifetaps make him brutal. All while fighting him in the daytime because he gets beefed at night. This guy should maybe be toned down slightly. The other thing that kind of stinks is that while some of his loot is strong, it doesnt really cater to many classes. (1 win and my group beat him when i wasnt there, too many wipes to count)
35. Magot Infested Corpse(8-11 Fail 18 Easily wins): We didnt have any information to go on from Wiki so this encounter was exciting for us. We initially tried with our Core + my warrior tanking it and just got man handled. Her charm really made things difficult and her area effect. Needless to say it looked like the Haunted Treant thing all over.
It seems that unless your clerics are over 34 this battle is near impossible. But after that threshold it seems much easier. Anyhow, 11 people could only get her to 70% while 3 full groups brought her down easy. We have only killed her once but she dropped a SK/PAL 2hander and some sleeves that didnt really fit tanks or pure casters. I was kind of sad to See another SK/PAL only 2hander because Goretusk also drops one. Maybe make the weapon Warrior able>? Heres the loot that we got and updated Wiki. (1 win, 4 Real losses after testing her)

36. Tarx Stormfeather (Same group from above 18): After getting our butts kicked around by the Magot Corpse and then finally beating her easily we went on to the next higher level adept. This adept which was 1 level higher was much easier to bring down. Maybe its because we could take advantage of Geography but the Wiki advice was sound. This adept is a cinch with the same group we had before. The constant 120 AoE is nothing compared to the 300 that Magot uses. But we have only engaged him once. But it was very easy and we won on the first try. His HP seemed low. I think the following loot might need to be adjusted to include Monks/Beastmasters for sure on the boots. And Beastmasters on the piecer

My only other real concern is that, my level 34 song is no where to be found. I dont want to turn this into a bard thread but, I want my mana song and heal song to just be 1 song now. I can only cast 2 group songs at once and having at song that does both makes things great.
Hope this helps
