Hands down Lupi is THE MOST annoying boss to fight.

Anyone know if this update will kill Lupi Pugs?

No, lupi will not make or break any more groups then before because the run back was already so long most groups wont notice the difference.

I didn’t die the first time I fought Lupi. I didn’t even get downed.
Even on my sixth run of Subject Alpha I was still dying like crazy.

The difference was my pug party leader in Arah stepped up to the plate and let me know what to expect from the fight and how we were moving forward as a group.

This. Learning mechanics and using teamwork will be severely advantageous now.

uhm. Wrong. Many times I’ve seen people die in subsequent order and running back, keeping lupi from resetting and eventually killing him.

this happens when you have 1-2 good players who will not die and a bunch who keep dieing. all it now does is force the bads to get better or stay out of content above their heads. Lupi has been soloed by multiple classes multiple times, people need to learn the fight and adjust.

Expect encounters like Lupi to be toned down. The boss can get ridiculous if he keeps targeting the same person constantly, especially in stage 2. You can only evade so much…and he has an extremely small aggro radius, so he tends to reset easily unless you always stay within about 900 range (max) of him. His mass AoE in stage 2 is also buggy, and can hit you even if you don’t stand on (or near) the AoE circles. Lupi is definitely in the list of encounters that will be toned down/adjusted.

The question is, was this beating the boss, or was this cheating the system? I think everyone knew the answer while doing it. Gear rewards without required skill or knowledge. Think of the first 80 you ran through your personal quest. Did you stay near your level? Did you ever die? Now I look back, running about 8-10 levels above myself wondering how that could ever happen. Lupis in blues on first toon…really really annoying but doable. That is end game guys, and yet a new person in very poor gear could revive and defeat him. Is there anyone who actually thinks that is fine? Gear collecting is golden, but far from a good game design. Having unending do-overs to succeed…why would a person play for more then a couple months?
