Why was the Peerless arti chance crippled? They are not easy to get in the first place, and then you cripple it.

Is there anyway Pyres arti chance be bumped a little? He has the same arti chance as Miasma and is 3x harder than Miasma to kill.

Some of the UOML named creatures are getting their artifact chances increased (I'm looking at you rend). There's a ticket in the listing I will be getting to one of these days.

Peerless chances were too high originally (25% originally is quite high) hence why they were lowered. Peerless drop enough goodies as is without giving them super high artifact chances (13% is even rather generous considering a group can do a lady melisande or dreadhorn over 12 times a day). The named creature percents can use a bump, a few of them in particular, like you said, pyre.

Kewl. Thanks. I guess I really am just a peerless nub because I haven't figured out a proper tactic other than having a few super beast tanks.

Also keep in mind its hard to judge creatures by difficulty as a creature can be hard for a mage but easy for a dexxer, or specific template.

For example vigurlent is probably impossible for a mage, but for my dexxer its easy. But something like malkilus will rape my dexxer but a mage can easily do him.

tbh, virulent is capable of killing anyone because of his famous "I see you, I jump on you" tactic. Especially if you got no mount, he chases you down.

Pyre is actually a good example as he's not the nicest versus a tamer. You can set a pet on it and try to hide but his flame aura is very powerful and will often hit the tamer. When that happens, he'll take notice of the tamer and strike with a combo of spells or his sharp talons.

They're not too bad, just need a group to speed things along. If you have a large group it's like any other boss (Gauntlet, demitel, champions). Goes down quickly.
