Nyzul Isle Initial Findings

[nivlakian]

Iirc, the issue of being able to pick any floor came from the odd wording of the update notes.

4. The reward for re-completing the 100th floor (by returning to the 100th floor via the key item received upon the first completion) has been adjusted.

As far as I'm aware, no one has figured out how to do this assuming it's true and not some horrible miswording on SE's part.

we just did a floor 100 today, doing the warp out trick before the update

when we got to floor 100

has the damage of a Hexagun +1 and the delay of the Hexagun NQ but w/o the ranged acc

so far since we have been farming/doing runs, we have got 3 askar ,1 denali 2 goliard bodys 1 askar, 1 denali legs, 2 askar hands and 6 askar, 4 denali, and 3 goliard feet.

Can anyone confirm if the warp trick still works after the update? We are going to try Floor 100 wednesday and i'd like to be sure it still works after this 100% head armor drop fix.

I'm also interested in whether the warp trick still works post update.

Also:

Although that new runic lamp looking device in the staging area is used for the final missions of TAU... it might be worth investigating just to see if it interacts with the Nyzul key item or with Nyzul weapons.

Possible combinations/actions:

1) Trading a nyzul weapon to the blank spot.
2) Checking the lamp while holding the weapon.
3) #1 & #2, but specifically with someone who has the runic lamp key item obtained by clearing 100 once.

If anyone can test these and see if it yields anything, let us know.

eh stupid nyzul woot for um...no askar and no more all floor access....

[Odd]

you guys only farmed one weapon then went for the clear?

[Vejitta]

I hope SE didn't block drop from 100th floor whenever we use warp trick :/

[buttermilk]

we have another person who has 96 access so we are gunna split runs between the 2 of us and get me to clear twice.

[Kylen]

Hmm... so it seems that the warp trick still works, but the head piece drop isn't 100% if you use it.

In exchange for the loss of data after clearing Floor 100 during the Assault mission “Nyzul Isle Investigation”, the chance for obtaining the armor pieces has been increased to 100%.

Has anyone who has a runic key tried doing any lower floor boss runs with it? I'm still convinced that SE's statement is ambiguously worded and could possibly mean that armor drops will be 100% on all floors the 2nd time through, assuming the runic key holder is the disc holder again.

[Rho]

Interesting find on the Warp trick, thanks for checking it out.

So now we need to see if there's -any- chance of drop on warping out or if it's a 0% chance if you warp.

Farming weapons is still cool.... I guess... if we knew how to improve them.

did floor 80 with key item after update, no drop. the update is referring to making head piece drop 100% as long as the key holder is there during death apparently.

[Kylen]

Was the runic key holder also the disc holder for your floor 80 run?

[Odd]

yes, that's me

[Kylen]

Ah, that's too bad then. Looks like our group will just keep farming floor 100 for awhile then without clearing our disc, hopefully there will still be a small chance of head pieces dropping.

Joy! We just did floor 100 hydra, our disc holder warped and we got Goliard chapaue and Pup weapon, though no one has pup leveled. But you can still get heads even without the discholder.

is it confirmed that having Runic Key on floor 100 grant a Nyzul weapon for one of the jobs in party?
I thought it was what they patched last time about reward adjustments

I think its supposed to drop the weapon of the disc holder actually, also lost the next cerb, GOH like 4 times in a row. GoH does less damage in there, but then it did nothing but hoplon. However we found out Fanatics drink which you can get from the first chest stops both the damage from GoH, and the drown effect. I love that drink. I bet it stops fulm and nerve gas too.

3rd time at floor 100 was cerb again, easily won, askar zuchetto and brd weapon. Thanks to sephiroso for warping out over and over even though you need the zuchetto ;_;

[buttermilk]

anyone complete 2 full 100's yet??

It's his penance for having a Seph-named character, and it isn't enough. :wink:
