Re: BCs for the level 65 Torques - which one?

Already have Master Caster bracelets and Druid Slops, so that's good.

Anyway, seems like I have two Sacraficial Chamber options for BCs and one also in Chamber of Oracles. Tonberries, Shaghins or Anticans. Not any of them are pleasent choices, it seems, but I'm leaning toward the Anitcan one since it follows the flow of the ZM6 mission rather closely.

Guess I'm just curious which one people have had the most success with.
Anticans are the worst. Don't do that one. They have enormous Dark resistance and amazingly annoying WS (AoE petrify is extremely dangerous).

Sahagin or Tonberries are better. Tonberries are a little weaker, as long as you don't have a ton of Tonberry enmity accumulated.

Most people do Tonberries. You have three very good torques that drop from that BCNM out of a possible 8 (Wind, Enfeebling, Elemental), and you get two shots at the good ones each time. Plus Tonberries are weak to Sleep (though resistant to Lullaby and Repose), making ES Sleepga II a viable option for control.
