Every server has bad apples ladies. You throw accusations at each other, and yet I see the exact same things done by the rest of the servers; vocal minority I suppose.

Actually those boxes barely drop any lodestones. Someone bought 250 of them, got like 6 lodestones total..

Sorry Lucas, but you seem to be talking out of your blowhole. Maw is the same fight 1-80. The only difference is agony damage. There is no change in mechanics. Jade Maw is the least of your worries as you progress. Getting a bit angry aren’t you, over something so trivial (and incorrectly assumed on your part).

Yep, 60 from Maw chest, 55 from daily (havent done 80 daily yet though, so that might actually be 60).

Not true, with higher levels you have a much higher chance to get a fractal weapon.

Jade Maw 40+

How much % health total do you drop from the agony? 160%, 240%? I assume you’re labelling it as impossible because of full agony wipes?

I am curious as to where did you actually see the word “impossible”. Or you just talking to yourself? Well, since you clearly have not a slightness clue what I am talking about, I shall elaborate.

On Jade Maw lvl40+ the agony phase is a guaranteed wipe. You can’t outheal it. Doesn’t matter how low your HP pool is and how strong your heals are. It just drops people with 30AR in 3 ticks.
Other things you should know about agony phase.

  1. Unlike regular agony applied by other bosses it ignores all invulnerability skills.
  2. It doesn’t end with wipe. Agony is reapplied back on you after you reenter the island with Jade Maw on it.

So there is literally NO way to avoid complete wipe at least once on each agony phase.

There are two ways (that I know of) to complete this:

  1. Ranger can rez people with Search And Rescue from a safe distance (agony is not applied to pet)
  2. Someone has to use rez orb

Neither of those are particularly inspiring options. First one is relying on a bug, and second one is clearly broken boss encounter mechanic.

Given that, it seems the only conclusion is that level 40 and beyond dailies are not meant to be completed with current possible max AR. That also seemed pretty lame to me, so I created this topic hoping that perhaps there is some other strategy people have found to complete this legitimately.

You very much can survive Tier 5 agony in Maw (40-49). Either with good timing and 2 guardians with their elite skill, or with warrior rez banners. After everyone dies, you run to the edge. Have 1 person with a high-healing spell jump down (maybe have someone like a thief drop down an AoE heal as well) , heal themselves, and as soon as they go down, a warrior should drop down the banner (needs to be well-timed, start casting prior to them downing). After this everyone jumps down and starts healing the downed person. At the end, everyone should be dead, and the first downed person should now be downed, but still alive. It needs to be well-timed, but very much doable. This cannot be done 50+though, as you go down in 2 ticks (1 for down state, and another to finish you off completely).
