Post patch Nyzul Isle Assault

[Hicks]

Has anyone had a positive ID on random-NM ??? items since the patch?

Got this from a nyzul run post patch, 1st drop I've ever seen, and I've done quite a bit of nyzul.

Hey Hicksius!

And wow, Ungur Boomerang. lol, nice.

[Odd]

got trotter boots from floor 81, and 2/4 bodies on floor 80 (Askar and Goliard)

[Nabutada]

Out of four runs post patch my group has gotten Frostmane and Mushroom Helm. 0/20 pre patch.

I've flipped through the topics but does anyone have a good strategy to start multiple runic discs for a static? Something like working 3 people on up, so you have 3 attempts at everything would work for my group. I'm semi-new to the Nyzul one, but a veteran to assault. Just wondering if someone can shoot me a link if anything. If it means anything too, I'll look for the picture but I believe someone in my LS got Bloodbead Ring too post-patch yesterday. I'll look into it more.

5 or 6 body drops in a row since the update.. still like 2/100+ on the appraisals. Magic slacks and the Tom Tit Tat h2h.. lol.

For the guy asking about the static disk thing.. what mine did was get someone to 80 so we could farm bodies.. and a couple times a week bring up another disc. Should be at 40 soon.. probably would be 60 if the first person we had with the alternate disk didn't flake out.

Got Peacock Amulet from floor 44 Argus our first good appraisal in like 2 months.
And 20-40 etc floor NM drops are still bad for us - got 2 feet from 20th floor before path when we go with THF in party, all other tries w/o THF are like 0/10.

[Odd]

anyone near to clearing 100 floors for the second time on the same runic disc yet?

[Sagacious Sundi]

JP wiki says this:

Key to magic lantern(key/Runic key of gunwale light)

Does "Runic key of gunwale light" equal "Key to magic lantern" (runic key)? Maybe it's a runic key with a different description?

Also, I wasn't sure whether I should bump the older Nyzul thread so I'll just ask it here:
JP wiki says Oriri Samariri's special power is "No aria of ..saying.. At spirits of the dead magic of Tenco" wtf does that mean?

[Garion]

anyone made it to floor 100 a second time on the person that got the key item?

Interested to know what the "Reward" is.

anyone made it to floor 100 a second time on the person that got the key item?

Interested to know what the "Reward" is.

Whatever the reward is, it's different from the pre-patch reward. What was the old reward, before they changed it?

[Sagacious Sundi]

The player whose runic disc was used to enter Floor 100 gets a runic key (key item; permanent I'm guessing). I'm guessing before the update, completing Floor 100 on the same runic disc again would yield nothing (besides whatever the NM dropped).

Anyone got any data on droprate? So far we have 1x drop (Denali legs) from floor 40, but nothing from floors 20, 60 or 80. We're going to start farming this week.

A friend has TH4, wondering how much that would help. I'm guessing probably a ton, but would love to see some solid data since he also has multiple other jobs that are helpful in Nyzul, don't want to drag him in on THF for TH unless we need to.

Thanks.

[Silencer]

TH4 seems to help the drop rate quite a bit. Our group went to floor 90 without a thf and got 0 drops. Then we started farming floor 20 with TH4 and ended up with ~75% drop rate.

Now getting the piece you want to drop is a whole different story...

[Midnightjade]

OK thanks. See what we can do about getting some TH in the mix for this.

And qft regarding getting the right piece to drop. I think in the group I've been going with, one guy wants Denali, and everyone else is after Askar (aka Darth Vader armor) .

Even assuming we get a drop fairly regularly, all that Askar might take a while if it's 1 in 3.

[Silencer]

Has anyone tried warping the runic disk hold out before defeating the boss on the 100th floor? I'm interested to know if you can farm floor 100 that way.

[sekaran]

We had a streak of like 11 drops in a row.. then went about 0/10 and finally getting a drop at 60 with another pair of Goliard Cuffs.

[Odd]

cleared floor 100 first time, got wightslayer (noone had blu) and askar hat.

floor 100 cerberus definitely uses gates of hades.

[Julian]

Has anyone tried having the disk holder warp out before entering the 100th floor yet?

[Suiram]

In another thread, someone suggested having a person with both the Lv75 weapon and a Runic Key try trading it to the Rune of Transfer in the entry waiting-room area to see if anything happened. We would have tried this ourselves but our first weapon was the RNG bow none of us had levelled, which went to the only guy who hadn't passed by the time we realized it might be worth holding on to anyway. Our second weapon went to the same guy because he's the only one in our set with WAR 75, but he's 4th in line to get floor 100 clear and we're on floor 25 for #3 so it's still a couple months off doing 3 tags a week. If anyone has both a weapon and the key item and wouldn't mind testing it if only to report "Nothing happened, as expected," that would be cool.
