Try to promote some sort of posting here. I guess it doesn't have to be end game strategy?
I like to carry extra elf blood on my portal helper to give people I am helping non hostile access to the elves.
What portal helpers do people have?
I have a 20 Druid 1 Monk (stole from psv) , I like the level accessibility and with gear it can hit 58-62 AC , 38-40 AB at level 21, with shape benefits. I preferred it to the fighter version which is a little higher level which means better gear access but less accessibility for the early portal stuff.
I had a mage I was making as for Varuls I like the speed of a necro wiz but I never finished it. The bad thing about the druid is it's slow, but it's damn steady.

I've got my 10 shifter 5 druid 6 monk vamp, similar ab/ac to Steve's druid though I could probably push the ac higher but I prefer to keep DR and animal emp gear up so I lose some there. With the harm pots widget she is basically unkillable.
I always have a pet in varul, the best bit is emping the cleric ones on the last map for free WoFs and SoV ^^

Kid, I had one of those many years ago which I liked a lot, and yes pretty much unkillable, but, I made the switch to the druid version for all the buffs, not just for me, but also for the people I am helping, I have noticed that especially the true seeing buff is invaluable for party members when you do Varul. Of course also being able to buff bulls, freedom, death ward, mass camo, SR, etc is also nice for party members.
So yes, as Steve said, mine is 20druid/1monk using water elemental shape. 20 straight druid, 1 monk at lvl 21 for tumble and disc sink, and it opens up monk attack schedule, and gear that is monk specific. Can solo the whole portal and works wonderfully as a portal helper especially now that the server is not as populated as a few years ago.

I have no doubt, I've seen Steve's in action a lot. In regards to the TS in varul, all it takes is said party to hang back 5 secs or so and let them target me, varuls don't rehide after all. So there are ways around that.

Very true kid, and truth be told, I miss my shifters, I played my vamp a lot years ago before the shifter nerf.

I have a 3 casters, a wiz, druid, and cleric, all able to help with the portal stuff. I think the cleric is actually level 24, so I've been rebuilding him.
But I usually have a ton of toons that are 16-21 that can help with portal stuff.
Of my 3 helpers, I find the wiz to be the best, just for the versatility, + extended ii. |

I have a 21druid 1monk that can help out. Not sure if thats too high for most portal party's but he's a buff machine and can solo portals.
