Naakual - Notes, Strategies, confirmed drops~

[Marcel]

Hurkan on my server today, people in my ls were doing it early apparently was around 65% when maintenence hit and respawned it with full HP. JP time again and finally enough people on to kill it lol. Here's a dummy proof map of how to get to Hurkan. Climbing skill is required to get into its area and using the climbing skill you can walk the entire way there without needing reives down.

We got this for Yorcia?

So do all smn buffs hit everyone in range in wkr or just some?

[blasphemy]

SE really needs to apply a WoE mechanic to these wildskeeper reives and lock people out after a certain % is dealt. Currently, if its anywhere under 50% when entering, you won't really receive enough or any evaluations to qualify for an item.

They really should, if it wasn't my first time on both I would have wasted 130k because both times I entered it was under 50%. Good thing they gave us 1 item just by having the ki though.

[dasva]

Ok this is really dumb. 3 runs with 2 characters and all I have to show for it are grip on one and bullet on the other... seriously what are the odds that both my characters would get the same different item 3 times in a row when there are 6 to chose from...

[Fwahm]

I'd say it's evident by now that the drop rates for the items are not equal.

Haven't done nearly as many Yumcax as Hurkans, but Yumcax seems a bit more spread out with his drops. Out of 4 people I know that went to Bahamut's run last night, there was 1 GA, 2 gloves, and a neck. Compared to bird, thats a godsend. 9 LS members the other night, and we had 6 bullets, 2 grips, and a scythe.

Obviously but on the same bcnm getting grip on 1 character all 3 times and getting bullet on the other all 3 times no matter what the droprate is of anything else is kinda off

Did this WK twice today. First time i entered below 50% on 2 toons and did not get any drops on either. Figured maybe that was my bad luck for being late. Second one I entered and it was still above 75%. Anxiously await my reward to find!!..... an Updraft cape on one toon, and!!! Voay Staff -1 on my main toon! I mean seriuosly? A shitty cape that drops from the regular Reives outside? and a crappy Staff that I already have 6 of from the same regular Reives outside? This shit is broken and I want my 250,000 Byald back. And I want some kind of official response on this BS!

[dejet]

you want an official response because you have killed it 5 times? um... nvm

[Marcel]

does anyone atleast have the pos of the Yorcia Nakuaal entrance?

Or, as a friend put it: "Click up, run west, click down."

[Korren]

"you want an official response because you have killed it 5 times? um... nvm "

Yes, I want a response as to whether or not "it is working as intended" to drop the sane crappy items we are getting from the regular Reives outside, as a reward for farming all that Bayld and then defeating what is supposed to be a somewhat major NM. I was pissed when I posted that, but the question still remains. Are those items supposed to be in that loot pool? Or did they break something else with there 12 hour emergency maintenance?

I want to point out the logs and ores that we had to suffer through with VW so bad...

[NynJa]

Yes you still are supposed to get regular reive drops. Youve never done any pf the first 3 i guess, u always got a reive drop and a wk reive drop.

Does smn dmg work at low colonization rates? More specially on tree

It's still effected by dt. I think QD might be the only dmg in the game that isn't

Thanks

If there was any doubt, EXP/Bayld now cap out at exactly 25,000 and at that point you will not receive further evaluations.

(that 4EXP came from a Lair Reive on the way to the Wildskeeper)


btw its extraordinarily easy to cap bayld/exp as DRG/Mage now that healing and damage are in the same category. I can Convert down to 2 HP then Heal Breath for 1800 and solo mobs and spam 1k+ healing breaths. Almost all my evaluations were for 800-1.2k+, capped in less than 15min. Self healing counts just as much as healing others, so Convert can be a way to cheat free bayld/exp. Hell you could potentially have an HP gear swap macro where you switch out Max HP+ gear with -HP gear and just heal yourself the whole time and cap out as well.

and nins 2hr. We did some dmg using 2 nin's each blowing up as they reset their abilities

Is this true? I thought it was funny that as a tank I got less points then a random monk who said they received 40k. Good to know the guy lied lol makes me feel better.

[Ophannus]

Prepatch you could, but I guess they capped so you don't get more than the entry KI. Although I wonder what the cap is on KI reduction? My KI is 30k for first 3, so 25k basically makes them free(not that any of their gear is relevant thanks to Delve). I wonder how nuts delve version of Yumcax club and Hurkan head will be >.>



Also since Magian Staves are +70 acc, shouldn't most people choose the Yumcax club for that new quest for the +90 m.acc since it's basically all magian acc staves in one but with significantly more m.acc and inventory+6?
