    The day that SE developers kill AV by telling us to do this:

    quote from someone in the previous pages-
    "How to Enfeeble Absolute Virtue:
    The regen effect will be cut in half by defeating as many of the Ru'phuabos, Qn'xzomits, and Qn'hpemdes summoned by the Jailer of Love as possible. In addition, using an elemental based attack that corresponds to the current day of the week (i.e. using Fire spells on Firesday) will stop the remaining regen effect. "

    Then I'll start to believe a little of what they say, until then, NO!

    The rmt didn't lock it, you can see it casting spells in pictures posted in that thread. Also, you're trying to establish everyone who tried to lock it was successful before the patch, but you're leaving out attempts pre-patch where there was no lock such as Ragnarok 10/15

    I was trying to relate the times after maintenance with AV being able to lock or not (something similar to the old SteamCleaner bug). I had a hunch that AV would 'bug' and be able to be locked again after X days after a server reset, which was the point of posting that little search look up. I was unable to find any cases where no lock was present after repeated attempts. Obviously I'm missing a ton of instances since not every AV attempt gets a BG post and sometimes, not enough data is given about the attempt.

    I didn't really look into the Hades attempt, however, I assumed it had some type of lock on it because I have a very hard time believing RMT could get AV down to 82% when it still had access to 2hrs.

    So has anyone attempted AV again recently?

    kinda off topic but other then the frequency of the AV pops (it seems?) has anyone been noticing better item drops and/or pop times on IX's?

    We've managed several 30min IXdrk/drg's as well as a back to back drg pop in 3 days.

    Could just be dumb luck i suppose but mebbe they ninja patched sea a bit?

    could be they made AV harder in exchange for slightly easier time poping him along with his lower tier friends.

    Maybe. . .

    Some linkshells in Unicorn who haven't had luck on popping certain Ixs are now popping them easily and fast.

    Got all three drops from fortitude.
    I got there late so I really don't know, but I was at Ix'DRK for about 1:30 before we switched.

    Nobodies killed it yet? This is kind of depressing. The fact that it could be killed actually made people in my linkshell want to do sea. It was nice to have scheduled activities out of the normal king-dynamis-limbus routine. We popped it about a week before the patch and experienced the same things people are reporting now, with 20+ sets killed/2-3 sets per hold before wiping. And even though it was killed between then and the patch, it only encourages the thoughts that SE removed the 'randomness' from it all and made him impossible again.

    I'm told it wasn't casting or summoning. I got here after they had wiped and it was Unclaimed-100% (and summoning,casting).

    Yes, using a Galka and an Elf to sac it.

    Probably someone making a hasty assumption due to a moment or two of inactivity. If you can actually pop and lock AV, i have a hard time believing even RMT would wipe thereafter.

    Tempted to photoshop a screen of a pop and locking AV, but too lazy. Someone else do it so I can take credit.

    I do.

    Seriously, we're sitting on like 4 JoL sets and scared to use them now because we don't want to waste AV attempts when no one knows wth is up with AV now.
