Smobbing for newbies
Posted: Sun Mar 22, 2020 11:23 pm
Smob= super mob
Smobbing= killing a boss of a bandit group for gear and coin
All you need for smobbing is a warrior at minimum level 20 but i think most would prefer level 25-30. The prerolledstats is perfect for this.
Come prepared!
The more prepared you are, the easier it is for the rest of the group and the leader to keep you alive.
Pracs should be something like absweapon 99, bash 99, ride/survival lvl 6, notice 93, leftover in attack. Get as much abs as possible, and as good a weapon as possible of either longblades, axes, clubs or polearms (halberd).
Of abs and weapon, abs is the most important.
A good basic abs set and its upgrades looks something like this:
coif- visor
oiled sleeves- ebony vambraces
burnished plate- shining breastplate
steel gauntlets- full metal gauntlets
oiled leggings- ebony greaves
thin metal boots- thick metal boots
in your backpack you should have:
a waterskin
butchering dagger
3 dinner meals
4 lanterns
Try to find a warhorse, bloodstock or domani razor. There is also horse equipment to get but thats not strictly necesarry.
In 4k (west of caemlyn) there is a rename service:
find the stables, and say rename warhorse horsename
then all you need while in a smob group is an alias to ride horsename. If you buy a warhorse, buy warhorse 'name' and you get a named horse.
Horsenumbers:
All horsenumbers are counted from the bottom up when you view the group command. It looks as follows:
Leader 5.horse
follower 4.horse
follower 3.horse
follower 2.horse
follower 1.horse
The leader is always on the highest numbered horse. Horsenumbers can get mixed up by people leaving and entering the room while riding or leading horse as the horse that enters the room last is always the first horse. So try to minimize leaving your group. Pay attention when to dismount and when to ride.
Targeting:
When you are outside the room the main boss is in, the leader will call out the target. This means he will for example say k smob. Your task is then to have an alias ready (alias k k smob) and hit k smob the moment your group goes in.
Common targets can be:
Minion
Smob
brigand
bandit
man
It isn't necesarry to have all the targets in an alias, but you can have an alias you redesignate fast. To clear an alias (like alias k k smob) type alias k.
Useful aliases for a smob trip:
alias v k smob
alias k k minion
alias a assist leader
alias ri ride horsename (or horsenumber)
Last, if its your first smobtrip, talk to the leader. But if you are well prepared it will be easier to keep you alive. Also remember to have fun!
PS: oldbies on a warrior playing from a cellphone are also welcome, but it helps if you are also prepared in the same way. The aliases are easy for this reason.
