I didn't say players should be given anything. I said that players shouldn't settle for targeting unstorable inferior gear.

Nyzul was fun until I got stuck on lamp scholar. The group I went with used clipper like a crutch, which is fine, I guess. I got my wins, but I always thought it would have been more fun to work on more strategic mob targeting/skillchains.

My win rate since returning is actually higher than before I quit (i.e. pre lamps nerf)

I don't understand the QQ about it not being fun or too hard. Yes it can screw you but with the caliber of gear available even a 5-10% win ratio would have been fair (given all 6 people get a drop). As it is, a competent group can cap in a matter of weeks.

Given how good the gear is, the time spent/reward ratio on Neo Nyzul is actually pretty damn high.

There couldn't be more truth in the above post and it mirrors my own confusion with the overwhelming QQing about Nyzul. The fact that everyone in the group is guaranteed a drop of their choice upon win is the single reason why it would be absolutely retarded if it was setup so that it was possible to win every run; it's really not that hard to understand. Moreover, if you/your group really struggles that much, you can just buy the pieces from one of the many merc groups around (Hell, you can even come to Carby and we'll take care of you.)

Anyone know if the stopper works on floor 80 now?

**Dotsudoku** · 2012-12-12 20:07

Didn't it always?

**Jeryhn** · 2012-12-12 20:10

Just confirming.

**Dotsudoku** · 2012-12-12 20:14

Oh. Safe to say it does.

**Gun-it** · 2012-12-12 22:59

I have been told different things Embrava still unnerfed in Nyzul?

That's a pretty low token count.

Idr how many floors. Maybe 16.

**bechyni** · 2012-12-24 01:20

Guessing 84 was a 5 order?

**Loziel** · 2012-12-24 18:32

Since the update NNI jumps seem absolutely retarded. We were getting regular wins and gear beforhand and now it seems we get constantly low jumps. Clearing 17-20 floors and still being around 80 mark never used to happen before. Stupid stupid RNG hates us

**Darkmagi** · 2012-12-24 18:41

My group is the oposite, RNG fucked us 7+ runs in a row, now we have a 100% win rate since update. lol

**macross** · 2012-12-24 19:08

Cleared it last night with 10 minutes to spare due to massive jumps. Heck was on floor 90 I think by the time the first embrava wore off.
Next run shitastic 2-3 jumps, timed out on floor 100 due to gimp jobs

Well a 96 RNG and a 99 PUP with Aurore will do that to us =P

**macross** · 2012-12-24 22:20

Had no aurore, replaced it with thaumas already!

**sfchakan** · 2012-12-25 03:19

Had a recent run where we got 5 2-floor jumps and 3 or 4 3-floor jumps. Timed out on floor 98 kill all after jumping from 96. Sometimes the bar, well, he eats you. >.>
