The PanSola Planetary Domination Fund is accepting donations in the form of Ectos, Shards, dyes of any color, crafting material common and rare, or just plain gold. While donations of Unique items would also be greatly appreciated, currently there is no use for them in the Planetary Domination Roadmap, and thus they will strictly be used for personal gain. For a sense of how we have been progressing with planetary domination, proving we aren't just all talk, see Recent Planetary Domination Activities.

Contact one of these individuals if you wish to make a donation. Unfortunately it is against your government's interest to make it tax-deductable.

Some Cons taken from henchmen pages written by other ppl

 * Alesia = Among the first to be attacked by nearly every enemy. (but at least she's not the #1 target of most enemy casters, see below)
 * Dunham = He is most enemy spellcasters' #1 target, and he dies fairly quickly. Because of mounting Death Penalty and the fact that he's often constantly being attacked, he can quickly become a hindrance. (but at least he's not the one who gets targeted by most enemies, see below)
 * Orion = Gets targeted by most enemies.  (Despite Alesia is among the first to be attacked by nearly every enemy)

Thus we get the picture that most enemies are not spell casters, Alesia gets attacked first by nearly every enemy (consisting the melee and rangers), while Dunham gets hit by the spellcasters first. When enemies kill either Dunham or Alessia, they turn on Orion, so he gets "the most" (casters and noncasters).

Fun.

User:PanSola/Best Of Collector Items - Mesmer

Sora Pan

 * Originally Lv20 Me/R, domination mesmer most of the time
 * Currently experimenting with ProtRezmer for Sorrow's Furnace
 * Has an Elder Black Widow pet named "Widow Althea"
 * About 300 plats away from her first piece of Fissure Armor. Only planning on getting the attire (first) and hose (second).
 * Switch between 15k Enchanter's and Drok Enchanter's armor for superior/minor rune usage.
 * Completed all missions.
 * Active Quests: The Final Assault, Defend North Kryta Province, and Defend Denravi.
 * UW Quests completed: Clear the Chamber, Escort of Souls, Wrathful Spirits.
 * FoW Quests completed: Tower of Courage, The Wailing Lord, A Gift of Griffins, The Eternal Forgemaster, Defend the Temple of War, Restore the Temple of War
 * Missing Mission Bonuses: Dunes of Despair, Dragon's Lair, and Thunderhead Keep.
 * Greens: Gorrel's Staff, The Rockmolder (20% ver), Vokur's Cane, Vokur's Staff, Korvald's Cane, Handsmasher (Sora is cursed/blessed with ONLY receiving Mesmer green drops...)

Sori Pan

 * Lv20 Mo/N, healer most of the time, but plays with bone horror/fiends when hanging out with full henchie party.
 * Uses Drok tatoos and minor runes only.
 * Skipped The Wilds and Bloodstone Fen missions because the Mysterious Message quest chain took her from Druid's Overlook eventually to Aurora Glade. Subsequently skipped Aurora Glade by exploring her own way to the Henge of Denravi.  Otherwise finished all missions.
 * Active Quest: Defend North Kryta Province
 * Missing Mission Bonuses: Riverside Province, Sanctum Cay, Dunes of Despair, Elona Reach, Ice Caves of Sorrow, Iron Mines of Moladune, and Thunderhead Keep.
 * Greens: Wroth's Holy Rod, Fleshweaver (Sori really really can use some more monk greens...)
 * Greatly Desires: Brohn's Holy Rod, The Stonehart, The Yakslapper, and Ivor's Staff.

Soro Pan

 * Lv18 W/E, at Bloodstone Fen
 * Finished all Ascalon quests except Recruits for Hollis, Barradin's Advance, Barradin's Stand, Fires in the East. For reasons not completely figured out, these quests are not available to Soro Pan yet.
 * Completed all Northern Shiverpeaks quests except Helping the Dwarves, to pick up more skills when profession change is available.
 * Completed all Northern Kryta quests except The Villainy of Galrath.
 * Completed all missions with their bonuses up to Bloodstone Fen.
 * Greens: Razorstone, Tanzit's Cleaver, Tanzit's Defender, Malinon's Skull Crusher, Bludgeoner, Rago's Flame Wand, Flint's Artifact, Flint's Wand (ALL thanks to Sori)

Sore Pan

 * Lv7 E/Mo, just got through searing and mostly a storage character.

Soru Pen

 * Lv 8 Ranger, still in Pre-Searing
 * A level 8 Melandru's Stalker who is slightly ahead with experience points.
 * Entered The Northlands at level 4 with the help of a random lv2 player. The level 2 player then mapped out at my request.  Cleared EVERY SINGLE CHARR, and ended up at level 7 (very very close to 8).  A group of 2 Charr Shaman and 2 Charr Chaot gave her more trouble (at level 7) than the 4 bosses who she can trick into fighting one at a time.

Sory Pen

 * Lv 7 N/R, still in Pre-Searing
 * A level 6 Melandru's Stalker pet.
 * Despite the common wisdom of using Mo secondary to keep minions alive, Sory shall either expoit the pet as a portable corpse machine or add the pet to strengthen the army.

Sora Pen

 * Lv6 Me/Something, in Post-Searing Ascalon
 * Purely storage character, so didn't remember her secondary.
 * Created to take screen shot for Dilettante's Armor, thus look extremely like Sora Pan, but I think I didn't got the face right.
 * Will be deleted once Sory gets past the Searing, so I have the flexibility of one free character slot.

Pukis something something

 * Lv20 R/E, finished game
 * The legacy character of the previous owner when I bought this account. Thus I don't really remember his last name.  Will be deleted once I got my own ranger to Lv20.
