Mad King Instance to Hard?

Standing around autoattacking a mob is not hard at all. It’s just the champ farms give more gold/hr.

Have you been in the intance this year? Every group i have been in dies to the candy corn guy because they don’t know how to stand in candy goo, or dies to the litch because they don’t learn when they attack the little skeletal dudes they reflect damage.

Does the game communicate this stuff to the players? Does it do so in a way where they can learn in a big melee, before they die?

The knockdown/pulls from some of the monsters in the labyrinth is annoying, and there’s not any particular reward for going there, so I do other things in game. I have little desire to run around in a circle killing monsters just-because.

Now, if it was like a game, with goals and such, I might be more interested. I’m picturing something like sanctum sprint or guild rushes. Make the maze more complicated, fog up the mini map, drop players inside and award points or something if they make it out. Or have it be a race to get to the end. Pretty much anything other than another farming spot.

You don’t go in there to get the mad king gear? I just want it for looks even if the stats arn’t so great.

Last year I farmed the heck out of it and came out with 3 pieces. So far I have one this year.

I’m almost always in overflow for the Mad King’s Labyrinth on Tarnished Coast.

I will check that out, thank you.

Now I do agree champ farms give more gold/hr. but I don’t agree to the standing around auto attacking part…. well unless you are the guy I see standing there with all of his gear broken and dead 90% of the fight.

I kill the viscount and the lich once per day this year. If you aren’t dead yourself, you’ll kill it. Doesn’t matter how many ppl died to the barrage.

You must not be on my server. I have played all day for the past few days in there and we have downed the lich one time, and viscount maybe 3 times. Is my server really that bad… Can I pay for a server transfer?

~edit~
Today there has been no one in the instance. We literally have like 7 people in there max.

Seems like your server is dead then. You can pay for transfers. What server are you on?

Anvil Rock. It says the server pop is good. I am guessing they are all champ farming, because there are like 30 guys running around the noobie zone zerg.

Have you tried guesting on another server?
I had to do that cause mine was mostly empty and it solved my problem.

I have not, this is a good idea though. I may have to catch a friend from another server when he is on.

I don’t think it is, but the mad king instance on my server is literally empty every day. I run around with 7 other people killing the little trash mobs.

The first few days the instance was packed. Then came crying about how no one knows how to do the fights, then came the crying about it being too hard. Now it’s very very quiet.

Did everyone quit because it’s too hard, or is there another reason I don’t know about yet?

Deployable turrets

When I got enough points at level 20 i put 10 points in to where i could get Deployable Turrets. I liked them in PvP because i could set them anywhere instead of at my feet. Well at the moment in real world it only lets me use my deployable turret function on my healing turret and not the rest, while in the PvP area it lets me do it to all. I have looked at all of the PvP talents and none of them say anything like the Deployable turret skill. Is there a reason why i cant deploy all of my turrets with the AoE selector?

It's Holler...Hallow...Its Candy Day!!

it would be nice if there was an option to “give candy” or “punch them in the face” so they stop yelling every time I pass them.
