Thread: Einherjar Change?     submit to reddit submit to twitter

  1. #1

    Einherjar Change?

    So I'm usually not the "update secretly changes stuff!!" type, but my LS usually has no problem with T3 Einherjar and today I was having high hopes for a 10 minute clear of the chamber with our new lvl 80 jobs. To my suprise the mobs were dying almost twice as slow as usual, and we ended up timing out on boss at 10%. Took us almost 15 min to clear first wave.

    Chamber was 12 Leeches + 12 Puddings -> 12 Logi + Khim boss. Even the boss went down slower than normal.

    Talked to a few other LS leaders and said they were experiencing some similar problems.

    Perhaps Einherjar scaling based on lvl (like was originally mentioned by SE for the event)?

    Anyone else experience this or just really bad luck for us?

    We were killing faster than usual today, so your members were probably just failing.

    I hope that's it, was really hoping to split farm these after 80 Q.Q.

    Attack down -> physical damage resistance -> Logi... Yeah, that just sounds like bad luck for a meleeburn group really. Khim boss should still have been a breeze though, idk what happened there.

    We just completely destroyed Ein today... was actually quite boring to spend more time buffing and running from mob to mob than actual engage time. Disappointing to have content made so easy.

    Ein has always been an easy event outside some shitty T3 chambers though.. the patch didn't really do much in that department.

    Odin is so scripted that it really is hard to lose when you full well know exactly what TP moves are coming at exactly what %. T3 turns out to be harder simply because you get thrown a curveball every once in a while.

    The two T3s we've done post update have gone easier than prior, so I'm going to chime in with bad luck/ people having off days

    I've done over 60 Odin, and I can count the number of times we have lost a chamber on my hand. I can also count the number of Vbody we have obtained on 1 hand -_-

    My group is exceptional, but tonite was seriously disappointingly easy. Hopefully T3 still presents a challenge now and then.

    Einherjar has a way of humbling you once you get too comfortable.

    Definitely this. Especially the boss, who died in less than 30 seconds with 24.

    Lol. Indeed.


    Been away for 2 weeks since patch and LS has gone quiet from leveling so Ein has been cancelled last few weeks. How many people are you going in at level 80?

    If SE doesn't implement upgrades for abjuration gear and v-fork/Hofud Einherjar shells may no longer exist by December.

    Did you miss the tiger pop by any chance? That could contribute to an increase in difficulty.
