Lupicus - exploit or not?

Konu I agree, it is more about game design and honestly lupi is a fun fight no matter how you kill him. And when I responded to this thread I didn’t mean “you guys push him into a wall, you should be banned”.

I push him into a wall too and when I say something is an exploit I don’t mean it should instantly be bannable as some people seem to think. I just don’t know better general term for “using tactics that somehow make the fight much easier”.

And yes avoiding domes is again debatable but I don’t like debating things on these forums (which is why this is like my 4th post ever.) since people seem to get kitten too easily instead of having a discussion.

Dungeon recipes still droping?

Friend got the AC recipe like 2 weeks ago so I guess they still drop. They are very rare though so it might take few hundred runs before you even see one drop :P

Oh you guys, always getting infractions

Anyways, I think it’s arguable if wall stacking is ok or not, really just came to this thread to say that I don’t think lupi skipping is ok on any level because I felt noobgood’s post kind of implied that. Keep on infracting!

Maybe “exploit” is the wrong term here. Let’s say trick then. And I think it’s a kitteneap because it makes phase 3 pretty much afk fight besides dodging lifeleeches every now and then.

Edit. Apparently ch3ap is somehow censored by forums.

Thought I would come clear this up since noobgood went way too far with this. I argued that pushing into a wall is an exploit in my opinion because it makes the lupi solo very easy if you just get past phase 1.

Also his wording in this thread implies I think lupi skipping is not an exploit when I specifically told him I THINK it’s an exploit but someone could argue it’s maybe not.

Peace.

Thanks to everyone who has bothered to ask support about this and providing the information here. Awesome that Gaile herself responded, she is awesome. In the future I will pretty much paste that email to anyone who complains about dungeon selling.

People who kick b4 dungeons rewards

I’m not saying we should have to do that but the fact is you kinda have to do that.
And devs do not read this forum anymore so don’t expect them to see your post.

Take screenshot of party names before a PUG run, problem solved.

I guess it might’ve been a bug then, we used feedback for the AoE circles and right after he did like a swipe that killed our entire party in one shot. Our builds werent obviously optimal speedrun builds because he had 50% left after first feedback but I had never seen that happen before.

Edit: Oh I read what you wrote in your first post and I guess we should’ve dodged that melee swipe, but he did it twice during the 2nd phase. Before AoE circles that we blocked with Aegis and after too.

But the main problem seemed to be that he just kept kicking over and over, when he was at 50% he had kicked like 9 or 10 times in 30 seconds. Is he really supposed to do it that often ? It felt like we were doing something wrong because yesterday he kicked like maybe 4 times in the same amount of time, just seemed weird.

Hey just a quick question about Lupi to you guys: When you melee him how do you deal with the “melee swipe” attack? Our party got kicked and swiped like 8 times during meleeing him today.

What’s the best way to deal with this? More dps? More block/stability? Is there some way to make him not use it? Are you just supposed to dodge all of them ?

Appreciate any help because I really enjoy doing Lupi in melee (did it melee yesterday and he only kicked/swiped in 1st phase, not sure what we did differently)

Still no dungeon loot update?

This saddens me greatly.. I would like to hear updates on the dungeon loot fixing, because right now I don’t see much point in doing dungeons.. this is like the only update I’m waiting for right now..

Dungeons should be worth doing for more than just tokens and achievement

Thank you for responding Robert and I know that you’re working on it! My main point with this thread was to say that try to make it substantial enough (don’t just give rares slightly higher drop % from chests).. so you can actually notice a difference

Hello everyone, I’m here to talk about my concern with the current loot system (I know there is a new loot stuff in the works) but my concern is that the new upcoming system isn’t substantial enough.

In my mind, hardest content of the game should give the best rewards. Something like spending few hours clearing Arah should give you more gold than spending 20 minutes farming events in Cursed Shore.

What I’m thinking here is DoA, Underworld, FoW from Guild Wars 1 that really were worth doing for the money but they were hard when they launched and they remained hard (excluding gimmick builds that came later but whatever). I’m hoping anet would implement some sort of really hard elite area and increase drop rates of existing dungeons to make them worth doing. I really actually enjoy doing dungeons and have infact completed everything but one route in Arah but I would like to keep doing them for something besides tokens which I don’t have any use for anymore.
Thank you for reading and hoping some dev reads this too

1 Eldritch Scroll + 30 Mystic coins + 50 Corrupted lodestones + 50 Glacial lonestones
Anybody tried this one yet?

Has anybody thought of using the putrid essences that drop like crazy in orr and (as far as I know) aren’t used for anything that’s discovered.. maybe they’re for the scythe staff thing ?
