Salvage - Arrapago Remnants - thread 2

[Neosutra]

How are different groups handling flayers? NM and normal one.

If my group just straight tanks, AoE Bioga move makes for huge downtime due to only having one whm (could have two but seems like a waste for just erase duty on 1 floor). If we kite, takes a lot longer to kill =/

I tried to just stand at a distance and let it cast on me, but they just chase me like 60% of the time. Would like to speed up our efficiency on these and this NM.

For the normal ones on 3F, don't let more than 3 melee be in AoE range at a time. Don't Erase anyone until both/all Psycheflayers you wanna kill are dead, then Erase them all. Haste the WHM or have them Haste themselves.

For 4F NM, we farm a SJ for the RDM first, so there're 2 Erasers, then we just let everyone melee and it's usually dead within 2 minutes anyway so cures just get spammed until it's dead, and then the RDM and WHM Erase everyone as I run to porter.

Usually I dont post about drops, but we just got 2 machas and 1 deimos so far and the run isnt even over yet (didnt do 5th astro or chariot yet) jesus christ -.-

After a pretty horrible first floor, a thundaga III -> warp QQA, and a QQTH that went passive without DoTs, it happened.

Yay twin! But why such luck ; ;

We're 0/~90-100, between 55-60 Arrapago runs. ^^

Beat boss tonight. Gave Sun Charioteer title. Woooooooooooo.

[Seditedi]

Yeah, I saw those titles in the dats >_< they are all lame and don't make much sense to me lol. Star Charioteer, Sun Charioteer, Comet Charioteer, Moon Charioteer.

Curious, anyone ever went to the 6th floor killing all the rampart and summons but without killing Qiqirn Treasure Hunters on Floor 3 and 4? The 6th floor Qiqirns may just be something like a "consolation prize" if you don't kill them before. I would doubt anyone ever left alive to test^^

Did a run today with war/nin rdm blm whm thf, the war was putting out impressive numbers with g.axe due to the update. Tanking the Archaic Chariot, he also parry'd quite noticeably.

My group noticed a huge increase in 1F cell drops last night. For example, skellies dropped 1 HP cell every time, as well as body/back cells. Too early to really call it a fix but it realllllllly helped.

My group went Tuesday and cleared the entire SE Wing and didnt get any HP at all. We did get 3 when we move to the NE though.

Edit: We did get alot of back/waist cells from skellies though, and alot of head/neck from Qutrub. We didnt get any Body cells from floor1. Didnt think those dropped on floor1. Seems like the same drop rate to me overall.

Same thing happened to us. We were getting completely screwed on the 1F. Qutrubs were being stingy as normal, and the first 4 lamia/merrow didn't drop anything at all.

Then we went to the skeleton side and it was like night/day. We got so many hp/belt cells that I think everyone in the 10 man group had both by the end of the run. We also got 3 instances where skeles on the first floor dropped stats which I've never seen happen.

D'oh. Well, I was 3/4 at least. I thought they would all be BC orb titles.

Attempted to pop 6F QQTHs again.

1F: Cleared entire floor, killed rampart and sabotender, then opened and went up SE.

2F: Straight to kill QQA, no drop.

3F: Went East/North. Cleared first 3 rooms and killed QQTH, no drop.

4F: Cleared all gears + ramparts + migrant rusellas + demonic rose. Killed Bhoot NM only, no drop. Killed QQTH, no drop.

5F: Cleared entire floor. Chariot, no drop. QQA, no drop.

6F: Cleared entire floor (ramparts last, each popped pink leaves tree). No pop. Opened door and killed the last 2 ramparts that popped. No pop. Waited for 10 minute warning, no pop.

7F: Killed Boss, Ea's Doublet & Bodb's Pigaches.


Note: All ramparts spawned at least 1 reinforcement. We opened door on each floor after killing the ramparts and reinforcements.

Whats your setup, number of people, and time your spending on each floor. Cause with a decent group of 7 im still running out of time when right about when we clear the 6th floor, and we arent even killing all gears, and we typically leave a wing untouched on first floor..

Quoted for being pretty much the exact question I wanted to ask.

My group is in the same boat, it's extremely frustrating.
