Here you will find a list that may save you some headaches. There are a number of AA's that may not do what you expect them to do because of your class or your experiences later in EQ's life. Remember bugged/useless AA's that existed on AK will likely remain that way on TAKP since AK gameplay is trying to emulated here.


AA's to be Cautious of
Name Classes affected How you may expect it to work How it actually works
Celestial Regeneration Cleric Group heal over time spell. Single target ability instead. Also the refresh timer is incorrect. It will display 15 minutes, but won't be able to use for the full 72 minutes.
Channeling Focus Bards only Allow you to channel through an interrupt It does nothing at all since Bards don't channel here. Just don't buy this AA if a Bard.
Extended Notes Bard Affects the range of all AE type spells Only affects group AE songs, does not affect those songs that are AE based (resists, Lceas, etc)
Jam Fest Bard The effects from the higher singing level increases a song's power on your group members (higher stats, etc) Only the Bard benefits from the higher singing level. Bard will receive the higher stats from the song, but not anyone else in the group.
Hobble Sprits Beastlord Stop a fleeing mob. The snare component maxes at 40% and while that is enough to stop a a lot of mobs at the lower levels (and some at the upper), it is largely dependent on the mob's flee speed. It will often not stop a fleeing mob at the higher levels when you need it to. It also will block certain pet proc spells, such as Spirit of Snow.
Spell Casting Deftness and Quick Buff Enchanter AA's should stack. These AA's are basically redundant. Server side limit on spell casting haste is 50%, so you can get QB3 and it makes SCD pointless. This includes focus items and spells (BoF) as well. So, if you already have a focus item that gives you 25%, then you would only need QB2 to achieve that 50% as an example. Anything more would waste purchased AA's.
