TD META [LUCK] Guide to succeed!

Yea had a successful random pug run, I was on my DH, pure zerk in SCAR, and we had about 20 on each lane give or take. Lots of icebows and people actually using the bows

One of the commanders made the comment for SCAR; It needs the most pure DPS out of the lanes due to not having any lane mechanisms that increased the Gerent damage taken. Just passing what I heard, dunno if it’s true, as I always go scar or nuhoch.

I had another run with 15 max at Nuhoch, failed because of the bug, while every other lane killed it:/ So maybe we’d want more there to burn it down faster to prevent bugging?

Yes this would be correct.

Due to Scar having no ability to stop the instant CC (even with leveling the thumper to 1 and then failing) it is best to bring maximum DPS and max out the thumper one thing to keep in mind is that you should also avoid throwing him next to the cannon…

So many times we’ve seen him lay a donut on the cannon an shivers

Ideally you would want to have 24 due to 2 on every mushroom as a (spore buddy) and 4 people on the chak squad NO-CC because CC is just annoying and why would you want to CC the chak when he is standing under an overpass his donuts will bug out an stay on the ceiling

The post will be redirected to LFG section of the forums due to it being…

“I’m looking for a guild”
[LUCK] does it Daily for everyone that can get in Monday/Tuesday, Thursday/Friday
2 hours before reset or 2 hours after reset.

Gotta realize we’re just people that have burnt out pretty hard on TD/DS/AB/VB so we don’t do 4-5 runs a day anymore.

[MATO] ? [MASO] ? They do it daily but their success rate isn’t all that good i’ve heard same with [EG] and [TTS]

TD META [LUCK] Guide to succeed!

OVERVIEW

Alright everyone.
Deadly Cuddles here and all that fancy jazz.

You might know me from the…
Twisted Marionette
Scarlet’s Invasion or more commonly known for
EOTM ktrains for uplevels against HK and also more specifically
Tangled Depths META.

Over the past few weeks I’ve been idly scrolling through a lot of people complaining and whining about TD META being so kittened in the sense that you have to wait 2 hours for a 15 minute event that can fail in pretty much 2 minutes from the very beginning…

MISINFORMATION
I have heard a lot of misinformation due to Youtubers/Streamers and even the community. (No offense and such)

Let me start off by saying that this is pretty much the same as RAIDs in regards to that you need a specific amount of DPS and SUPPORT classes. You will NOT win with 30 Chronomancers at range with greatswords (Example)

If you HAVE a strong burst DPS class like a PS zerk/burnzerk or even a dragonhunter, revenant, zerk tempest/reaper (spamming gravedigger) you should you should really re-roll that class in place of your current class unless you are experienced in just that class you play.

These classes would be highly preferred as majority rather than having 1-3 of each and than say having 30 engineers running slickshoes (please no…)

STRATEGY

The misinformation that I was previously speaking of is mostly regarding the fact that so many people are saying… “Oh we need 15 people on every single lane no more no less!”
or
“No more than 20 on Nuhoch lane!”

I would like to clear things up by showing you a video guide (with some tired bleh voice over) regarding the issues people have with Nuhoch lane and especially the other lanes near the end.

as you can see with the video, we run every single run with the following…

SCAR LANE 18-20.
RATA NOVUS LANE 18-20.
OGRE LANE 20-21.
NUHOCH LANE EXACTLY 24 experienced players ONLY.

Nuhoch needs 2 people on every shroom (A shroom buddy) minus the south side shrooms which should have 3 people rotating and 4 people dedicated to killing the Chak army heading towards the cannon.

People may argue and say “Waaaaaah! 24 people will upscale the event! Wah!” we get constant phase 2 kills every single run (give or take phase 2 5%) so I don’t see them putting up much of a valid argument here in that regard.

The reason we push so hard to get a PHASE 2 kill is due to the fact that PHASE 3 bugs
A LOT.

BUGS

I briefly explained in the video that there is a 50/50 chance that even if you are all in position and you have all been stomping and killing from the very beginning, there is always a very close call due to the spores no-longer spawning or taking 20 seconds to respawn when the timer is at 0:02 and 95-99% spores released.

Phase 2 you may have noticed that I tried to pull the Chak further out from the lane, this is due to another bug where if you fight the Chak in the poison and end up killing him while the spore poison debuff is up, you would immediately receive a permanent 10 stack of it and have no way of surviving just endless people reviving you never allowing you to die.

I’ve spoken to one of the Nuhoch lane devs that helped create the mechanics, told him my view on it, the bugs and this was weeks ago, there have been no changes made or any fixes so… I don’t think they seem to care lol

TIPS

We have run TD so much it’s basically just become another boring event to us but the reason why we do it is because other people still need it. That being said if you still need help try doing the following…

NUHOCH LANE
Check video above for accurate assistance

SCAR RIFLES are obsolete and do nothing to help DPS.
Everyone assumes that you NEED scar rifles to succeed well we proved them wrong two times in a row now, by having scar lane bugged and without Scar rifles and also not using them, ending up with Scar lane killing it on phase 2 something we have never seen before.

RATA NOVUS is pretty simple as well a little more challenging than OGRE.
You need to smash open the ley energy containers and use the dropped contents to power the nearby golems which help lure out the chak the higher you get it the more DPS you can manage. Ideally you want 3-4 people assigned to a container of the 4 that spawn you want to reach 7+ on phase 1.

OGRE
One of the most simplistic lanes of all 4. You simply spread out destroy the Chak Eggs and then fight the boss, but don’t get too kitteny as OGRE lane is always the one that slacks on DPS due to everyone spamming CC.

TL;DR

Don’t overscale.
SCAR LANE 18-20.
RATA NOVUS LANE 18-20.
OGRE LANE 20-21.
NUHOCH LANE EXACTLY 24 experienced players ONLY.

Get as many DPS classes as possible and NO-CC and you should have no problems with this META…

I’m glad your doing this for the community, but if you’re only accepting certain builds and professions into the map you’re running, you should state that.

I asked for an invite into the map and was immediately asked what class and build I was running. I said I was basically running the power grenadier meta dungeon build and didn’t get a response back :/

You may have gotten washed out by whisper spams, we accept all classes we just accet more of one when we need more of that certain class.

So long as you’re not rolling a Engi SlickShoes build nobody should be rejected.

Run #2 was a failure after bringing in 50% pugs.

I would like to state that if you do ever decide to join us from FORUM or from LFG/Friends read to what is being said by commanders.

Nuhoch was 50% inexperienced for the second run, spore levels were dramatically low.

Runs will begin same time tomorrow.

Time.zone? Part of the world? Its all well throwing times and days out there, but if we don’t know what part of the world, times are meaningless.

But If I throw timezones in all willy nilly nobody will be able to get in because everyone (more than 60 people) will be expecting to get in over others an over guildies.

It’s a timezone for everyone, around the world. Ahhhh so vague!

So are you expecting people to guess when your guild is going to run the event?

It would seem that way.

Hay my guild doing TD, good luck joining us to doing it, I will give you the time of 6pm, but I’ll not give you a time zone, so that 6pm could be anytime for you!

Sorry this just seems like a troll post.

A troll post? I find that just blatantly (no offense) stupid of you to assume for I gave the only timezone that matters. We want people that listen not people that expect to be carried by not pulling their weight.

It’s been a long 2 weeks of inactivity from the main guys here in [LUCK] been hearing how there are barely anyone managing to kill the Gerents and it being a ghost town and the whole scavenger hunt to get the Legendary and such sounds awful.

Either or we apologize for the inactivity we have just been busy with raiding none-stop an helping out people in that regard.

We will be running at different times for the people in oceanic timezones that require the meta which is 2 hours after reset and off days for NA 2 hours before reset.

Please understand that the reason we go in an wait for (Yes literally) 2-3 Hours in advanced is because the chances of you getting enough guild members in and people who need the event inside is very low due to people coming in and just collecting HPs and Map comp.

Over the past few weeks of being away from DS/AB/VB and most importantly TD I have been receiving many, or more so… hundreds of questions in regards to myself and my guild [LUCK] running specifically for the MISTWARD and of course the new legendary collection HOPE

I can confirm [LUCK] will be taking back to TD daily META this coming Saturday and Sunday and then throughout the rest of the weeks therefore on from Monday – Tuesday and Thursday – Friday.

What does this mean you ask!?

It means if you need TD META complete for any rhyme or reason you know who to turn to for the META kills and the consistent runs daily rather than having to PUG or say…
PAY a guild to do it for you.

I would like to add that we are now recruiting anyone who happens to really be interested in a fun experienced casual group of guild raiders that know what their doing for raids. Rather than going about pugging it without TS and without experience.

This content is very very hard but extremely rewarding and we hope to help out a lot of people in game, be that by allowing them a large selection of new-recruits and or experienced people to tag along an teach you how the fights work.

We are currently on boss 2 and have had the best time in a very long time from old-school to new with this content.

So go ahead jump on in and have some fun learn, we are not elitists we are here for you.

The content is fun, it’s challenging but it is WAY to demanding with this kind of timer limit, It takes about 2 minutes for the average runner to finish a phase give or take 3.

I think you misunderstand… that time limit wasn’t chosen because they thought everyone (or the “average runner”) could meet it, they chose it specifically because they thought you couldn’t. It’s supposed to put real pressure on you to rethink your builds and strategies. If you’d rather have your mechanics tailor-made to what an average player can already do, there’s a whole game out there like that.

Plus, wtf, it’s only been out for 24 hours. If an average, scarcely prepared raid group could go in and kill a boss immediately that would be pretty disappointing (and, btw, I’m not entirely sure that hasn’t happened). This is content that you’re supposed to die to over and over while slowly seeing more and more progress. If it takes a month for really casual players to finally see a kill, that probably means it’s in good shape.

Something to think about: even if Arenanet changes nothing, these bosses will never be easier than they are right at this moment. Once the build guides start appearing, once the community figures out meta raid comps, it’s only going to get easier. Be careful what nerfs you want to see so early, because there is a danger that this content is already too easy to have real longevity, even if it’s not obvious yet.

Again I am NOT saying they NEED to nerf it.

I am looking out for the part of the community that most tend to brush aside.

I myself abiet not in DnT as a member but very organized in non-ts running things and very very efficient in running ts, prefer looking out for others rather than myself 100% of the time.

If someone wants to learn the mechanics or needs a guide I’ll be happy to help but you get the idea. I’m not saying I want the content nerfed but something more doable for the pugs, maybe a challenge mote to give nothing for completing the boss but rather to fight it as an easier practice.

I don’t know again. I just like looking out for the casuals.

I get that the content is suppose to be HARD a real challenge.
I am just a elite player (sorta) I know more than most, I lead better than most BUT.

I love to look out for the part of the community that most tend to brush aside for being too “kittenty” at playing MMOs

The time is very very close we killed him at 15 seconds remaining but this was after 24 straight hours of constantly retrying an retrying, the problem again is NOT the content but the TIMER.

I didn’t say it was IMPOSSIBLE but that it was really hard to do it in 8 minutes for the public who have no ability to join guilds like DnT ATT or what not.

So I can’t say I was one of the high and mighty elitist Alpha testers to brag about how fast I / We can get a kill in here but as it stands with what rotations we have been going through in fully geared out players with team speak and without…

8 Minutes seems to be really designed for the guilds that ran the tests, ATT and DnT .

I am not saying the content needs to be nerfed, nothing of that sort.
This content is great so far. A few minor bugs here an there but… overall NO the content isn’t TOO hard I just believe the content is too based on the guilds preference in alpha, I mean hardly ANYONE from the public got into RAIDS in Beta before they shut it down so we had absolutely no say in the matter to if it was too strict on what was needed.

I have been running with my guild and others as well have for 15+ hours and YES I know people besides the almighty DnT have beaten the INTRO boss and possibly the others BUT as it stands the timer seems to be the problem.

8 whole minutes to do 5 Phases in 1 minute 6 seconds is extremely DPS CHECK and RNG based.

Based on 100% RNG due to the lightning AOE placement, if it’s spawned on the boss multiple times, great! You’re bound to make the DPS before the rage limit!

If not? Ho you’re kittened you ain’t tanking 200%+ DPS.

TL;DR

The content is fun, it’s challenging but it is WAY to demanding with this kind of timer limit, It takes about 2 minutes for the average runner to finish a phase give or take 3.

Adding 2 minutes to the already 8 gives it not that much less or more of a challenge it balances it out for everyone while not making it too difficult.

Phase 1:
Tank hugs the side of the pillar.
Have all DPS stack on the mushroom you’re fighting in.
Have your 4 Condi focus Green AoE.
Have your mesmer focus the seekers (Temporal Curtain? Skill)
so they stack far away and explode while others like warrior can use WILD BLOW to move them away if they get too close to the mushroom.

Phase 2: You split up your group into parties of
4: Blue Boon Strippers and CC
3: Green DPS and CC
3: Red CONDI and CC

Phase 3: Pretty straight forward…
Immediately CC and lure onto RED then as soon as the AoE on green vanishes move there otherwise you’re stuck with GREEN AoE in the AoE wipe. Repeat in a circle.

Phase 4: Same as Phase 2

Phase 5: Same as phase 3 just now It’s Green/Blue, Blue/Red Red/Green rotations.

So you should stack on the speed shrooms?

Just your melee deeps, the condis running AoE green should grab when they finish the duty.

So you should stack on the speed shrooms?

And also so the perfect party would be something like 4 condis, 1 mesmer with boon strips, 1 druid and 4 dps?

We found that Tempest running Soldiers with zerk trinkets si the best for tanking due to all the sustain skills and perm-protection it can run with horn.

So…

2 Zerks
1 Druid
4 Condi (2 engies prefered and a scepter necro and condi ranger)
2 Revs put in each party
Chrono for boonstrip + seeker duty
Last class being a extra DEEP unless it’s good then a condi.

There’s no need for a path for these, IMO. They are relatively clustered in the lanes (there are definitely more spawn points in the Rata Novus lane and probably the ogre lane as well—I just haven’t spent as much time in the latter).

The easiest way to find these is to look in the lanes for what appear to be little, blue, glowing energy balls (these can be see through rocks to help find them more easily).

Yeah I know there are more, just been more focused on organizing TD META wins.
Doing another run through after each run to check for new spawns, etc.

Some people prefer looking for a map rather than searching places they don’t spawn in hopes for the ley line sparks.

That being said, updating the map now.

So unlike my previous map for the Noxious Pod farm, I don’t think I will be uploading a specific path or anything of that sort since it doesn’t seem that winning or losing or starting up a TD META gives increased chances to spawn.

It’s more or less every 2 hours they refresh, from what I have so far noticed.

I also apologize if I have missed any spawns on the map.
They spawn relatively close to where I have pin pointed them…

Blue being ground floor.
Orange being above.

I’ll update when I feel up to it, I only did the lower half cause I have yet to find any near the northwest or northeast sections after a TD META win or a fresh map. They seem to be focused around the chak locations.

Thank you for all that took part in the event.

As usual the event ended with 3/4 being killed SCAR being 1% do to overscaling.

If ONE lane is at 70% at Phase 2 it is 100% salvageable do NOT send 20 people from another lane just because your lane is slacking.

Nuhoch was 70% at Phase 2 then 25% at Phase 3 remember this for tomorrow everyone.

I see, and I appreciate that. But i’m guild-less, and I have that sitting in my inventory. Just thought I’d offer cause what better way to use it than on a guild helping me with this event. You don’t have to take it :]

Pretty sure the only use now for Guild Influence is to buff the timer on ore mining and also to transfer it into currency favor

So when r u guys going for it again n how to get taxis other than lfg?

You can whisper me in game, and I might or might not be LFGing it due to how many people actually want and NEED it, you can also just type in looking for [LUCK] TD META around 1:30pm – 6:30pm PST daily.

I’d like to mention this is NA not EU

i think the chak gerent need some adjustments
since the whole HOT is ask people to break bar

and almost every revenant skills has a CC , it is too hard for revenant to not CC, unless he just do 1111 only.

I think it’s a good mechanic because they were forcing everything as “Hey break this bar to win! Break that bar to win!” but now it’s the total opposite where it is better an easier to not break the bar.

It’s a challenge either way and that is what people like myself really like to face.

So as you may or may not have heard. We “[LUCK]” a guild of 100% PUGs have pretty much completed TD META multiple times yesterday since we finally got into an instance with us primarily rather than our usual 30 pugs following us.

It was fun, it was exciting and more importantly now we can finally work on helping people unfortunate enough to NOT have ever completed it.

This includes other guilds, pugs, etc.

I would PLEASE ask that if you do indeed decide to take part in our organized TD runs that you follow this unavoidable strict setup build for the fight.

[NO-CC-BREAK BAR]

If you do BREAK the defiance bar by using the following skills…
CHILL, FEAR, PUSH, PULL, KNOCK, CRIPPLE, BLIND, TAUNT, DAZE, STUN, SLOW, IMMOBILIZE, WEAKNESS

Each Gareth falls down for a second (literally 1 second) stops channeling his rock fall AOE, and then begins doing the following.

- AOE Knockbacks against melee players (Swipes)
- Leaping around and using a lot of high mobility skills (Lunges)
- Creates giant pink/purple clouds that downs people instantly (Creates Pheromone Clouds)
- Smacks people behind him trying to avoid Swipe (Tail Slam)

However if you don’t CC him he takes the exact same amount of damage, but most importantly he stays in the same spot and is vulnerable to stationary DPS like fire fields (Elementalist) as well as other ground based effects (such as my Coalescence of Ruin).

So in short do not setup your build to cause ANY of these effects, if at all possible.

[DPS]

This fight is very DPS time intensive you must bring the following.
- Utilities (Super Potent Sharpening Stones) or the Crystals for Condi.
- (Optional but helpful) Combat Boosters (5% Damage, 5% Reduced Damge)
- FULL PPF for Melee (Power, Precision, Ferocity) or CPP (Condi, Precision, Power) for Condi.

[SKILLS]

I only know of the setup for Warrior as I do not play any other class.

https://gyazo.com/467dc90f396c64a7b8e6e753769a2941
(Ignore the Sword Shield setup it’s just my cosmetic outfit preference)
We use nothing but Greatsword.

NOTE

This is NOT a recruitment ad for the guild. This is a public announcement to people trying hard but failing to complete this event.

I would also like to add that we do NOT use Teamspeak or any other forms of communication we are a very organized PUG group.

I could use a guild to do HoT content etc… I won’t forgive you for throwing me off a cliff in a costume brawl once, but the new HoT content seems to demand more or less organized groups and guilds. I would appreciate an invite.

My tag… well it is right there on the left of this post. But I guess I will mail you in-game too.

Thanks.

Still, it would not be fair to allow some Guilds to advertise in the main discussion forums, and not others.

And, if all others can advertise in the main discussion forums, then discussion topics will disappear off the front page even faster. The discussion sub-forums would become filled with Guilds advertising, and there would be little difference between the two sub-forums.

I’m sure you understand. Good luck.

Personally I’m glad he did because I looked for a HoT guild on the LFG forum and literally only saw one game mode dominating it, with one Fractal guild; at least this guild focuses exclusively on HoT Map Meta events.

With the amount of people like my self that have complained of difficulty being told to find a guild wouldn’t it be in the best interests of the forum if there was a place you could direct them towards such as this guild which seems to cater to the kinda of events that are predominantly discussed in this very forum?

Eh… doub’t it will ever change to allow PvE PvP and WvW sub forums.

Why does the hell this guild advertise themself here?

not here :[

To be fair the guild forum seems to be more focused on WvWvW

It’s rather true.
People don’t seem to care about anything but that on LFG.

We casual PvE / HoT content guilds don’t really see much traffic there.

I might give it a go, are you guys running these events around the clock with different people because I have a sporadic work schedule and work nights, naturally if you have set times I’ll have issues I suppose but one would hope with it being Open World that you would have people running all the time depending on their schedules.

That we do.

My personal runs that garner a lot of attention starts anywhere from 3:30-5:30am PST time which for me is 10:00am in the morning which stretches out until 14 hours later of which the guildies then go on by themselves to continue their runs on their timezones.

I’ll definitely send you a message when I log in later, I did Dragon’s Stand with you once, it was when we killed the mouth in like 2 minutes lol.

I tried it with other guilds later, and it was a nightmare, you guys really got it together.

It was 3 minutes and 20 seconds total from the first DPS strike.

Yeah I don’t get why people have trouble with politely telling people what is needed to be done an having neatly organized copy-paste instructions that are pleasing to the eye rather just a jumbled mess.

We would be glad to have you
We plan on finishing TD tomorrow and add it to our list of daily wins.

WE lead the most efficient noob-friendly ||Noxious Pods|| farm over 25 pods per run on a regular run, and also do less than 10 min achievement runs (4-8 minutes) We do Tarir afterwards sometimes we squeeze in 2 runs of it if we find another.

We also just attempted Tangled Depths META tonight. Our first attempt was AMAZING Nuhoch succeeded with me at the lead. Ogre, Scar and Rata all were well down to 10-15% but failed due to one minor thing Purple donuts.

But why not tag along learn the content have a good time.

I also apologize if this is unacceptable part of the forums? I have a post up in LFG section but it has not really drawn too much attention for HoT content wise.

Name: You’re just mad [LUCK]
Server: All Servers Garnished Toast mainly (Tarnished Coast)
Time Zone: PTC It really does not matter too much. The guild is online the majority of the day I myself am online mostly Nights and other days during the Day
Rep Requirement: 100% is NOT expected but it is expected that you at least have a tab created for our guild chat in case we need people for an event or assistance, also to greet one another every now and again.
Roleplay: We have some players that indulge in it.
Ages: We are open to all ages but we range from 21+ currently
Size: We currently range from 150 or so Active daily currently of 390.
Guild Hall Currently level 45 with all the basic upgrades.
Website Don’t have plans for one.
Teamspeak We have one specifically for raiding, our PvE content is done coms off, there is no need to have TS3 for any open world content.

The Purpose of this Guild
The guild started off as just a typical BANK guild named [LUCK] due to our constant “Luck” on drops and forging whilst everyone had a profound hatred over us for it I decided to just name it “You’re just mad” eventually we started to build up the guild on our own to the point of Guilds Trove/Bounties/etc through gold purchasing rather than earning it through guild activities… moving on…

What we want best for our guild is to show other guilds that you don’t have to be 100% Active every single day of the week sitting in WvW or PvP or even PvE trashing on people and just being complete jerks acting like elitist show offs, nor to people who do not concede to their “Rules.” or join TeamSpeak to join their content no matter how easy it is. That being said we DO have a TeamSpeak primarily for our guild raids and for idle conversations as we have absolutely no issues with running open world content with pugs in text as everyone should know this by now, not everyone is going to get on to listen to people talk about off-topic stuff.

Seeking
Our guild is seeking active players of all forms be it EOTM, PvP, PvE, RAIDERS (Primary now) or even Roleplayers! with a STRONG emphasis on Raid LEADERS people who can organize groups and also people who can learn quickly to teach others.

We do not WvW since we are more of a worldwide guild and because of how toxic it is.

You can be level 1 or level 80 it doesn’t matter! Were here to help and be here for you!
We are looking for players that are Kind and have a lot of fun rather than a lot of harsh times trashing others. Are you looking for an active guild that actually organizes events and tries to have fun rather than excluding people out who are not “core” then come try us out. You do not have to be REP 100% nor do you need to be a part of the community every week, just have some good laid back fun.

We offer a variety of opportunities to do all kinds of activities, so you can find something you really enjoy by participating when we do them.

The only Rules we have are as follows.
1) Be nice to one another, help people out an just have a good time.
2) Drama will not be tolerated which applies to rule one, this includes spies as we have spies all over, to keep drama out.
3) Inactivity for over a week without notice gets you removed but a mail will be sent unless prior heads up is given.

If you are still new to Guild Wars 2 we will do the best that we can to teach you the ropes ^^ We hope to see you soon and to help make our guild grow!

Whisper or Leave a comment below if you would like to be apart of our growing guild.

Deadly Cuddles -DS- Efficient Noxious POD MAP

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Nekomi.9562

Nekomi.9562

People still do not get it…

There are over 40-50 pod spawns that spawn all around the map.
A FEW of these CAN be obtained while running on those lanes.

MID – TOP – BOTTOM once you obtain these these are GONE they will not be there after a run has finished. Once the run has been finished then and ONLY then will this map be accurate.

Sure you can go to the Rooted Corpse first and the Spider HP and then double back to the [Central Advance Camp] to head straight for the wyverns sweetspot net yourself 30 pods that way BUT you would have to be pretty selfish to think everyone knows and has Leyline glider mastery also to think that there will always be a leyline mastery memser to carry everyone and also not make it too far before all the pods despawn.

This route is both efficient and friendly to all players and gives basically the same amount you CAN NOT get every single pod. I can not stress this enough.

People get lost when you port all over the place aswell. Think about others not yourself.

Scarcity of crystalline ore

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Nekomi.9562

Nekomi.9562

So you have 300 something crystalline ore? That doesn’t even buy a full rune set :/ Or do you have another 500 in your material storage? Well great, than you can buy a full set. After which you’ll pretty much not be able to buy anything else. And to get this you must’ve done exclusively DS for the past week or so. I play quite alot, at least 8-10 hours a day and I have about 200 of the ore right now. Is all that ore from farming noxious pods or did you cheat here and got most of it on running all your alts through the story? In any event, with the amount of time I spend on the game per day, I could MAYBE get 80-100 ore a day, doing nothing else but DS. But ya know, I have a guild to that requires attention, friends in game I need to help and play with. So i’m looking at probably half of that. So I basically need to play more than two weeks to get a kittening rune set. You think that’s normal and fine? In two weeks I can farm enough mats to create ascended armors for all your alts. I think THAT is fair. See how unbalanced this is now? I’m not even kidding. I could craft up characters for all my character slots tomorrow and two weeks later have all of them geared in ascended armor. But I can’t even guarantee that I’ll have that rune set two weeks from now. How is that right in any way?

Well I come from a long line of MMOS that require months and years of grinding to obtain things. It’s a milestone you can’t expect a mmo to give you everything a few days into an expansion. What would be the point? If you have a JOB, A super high ranking guild that requires your 100% full attention, Kids, a family should the MMO be responsible for making these things in game more easy to obtain?

No. It just makes obtaining those items slightly much more of an achievement

And no I have not been grinding DS hard since it was released. I’ve been here 5 days days or so doing 5 runs a day all of which only take us 1 hour tops followed by a 30 pod – pod train so do the math pod – ore wise.
