Is Maat in all three starter areas at once or is there something that puts him a specific one?

He's in windy starter city on fairy at least, I havn't gone to bastok starter city.

Actually inside Windurst, or in Sarutabaruta?

[Wizrow]

He's in Sarutabaruta, on a hill to the east of the Sarutabaruta stronghold.

[Rocl]

Excellent! This confirms my hypothesis (*'3')

He can spawn in any of the starter zones, that's why some people couldn't find him in Gustaberg

How do you kill the fortifications in beastmen controlled zones? (or are you even supposed to?) I've been in a bunch of campaigns now where we had like 20-30 people beating on them, spread out on all sides of the towers, and they just keep healing back to full life without any message in the log.

That means you did damage to their fortifications, if you watch the region map you'll notice they decrease every time they heal (or every 2 times, something like that)

Just had an 8-wave Jugner defense, the last two waves were repeats of the first two waves, ended up with 3 groups of npcs defending. Yielded 2990 xp and 1497 notes. Longest one for me by far. Jugner gave up a 1700xp one earlier, too. The orcs must really want it back.

How do you tell which zone is gonna be at the earliest stage of campaign battle? Tired of warping to an area and the battle just ending

My tags keep getting randomly wiped by raise, reraise, and tractor while participating in Campaign after most recent patch :/ Lost like 2000xp to this shit eating R1s. This happening to anyone else?

EDIT:

There's emergency maint in 15minutes on the S-cities... hopefully this fixes it :/

[Rocl]

Tractor has always wiped tags, idk about your raising problem though.

[Zellgadiss]

I'll scout out for Maat when I get home to see if he's in sandy starter zones.

[Rocl]

If he's not on Zegham Hill, he's on some hill on Saruta or K-4 in Ronfaure!

Killing some Fortifications w/o Campaign being up some details:

Dia/Bio work- Poison resists; probably works like Brittle Rock, not on BLM so can't test the Elemental DoTs

When the Fortification it restores itself to 49% and lowers the region's Fortifications by 1 (I'm killing them slow enough on NIN to check)

Oh and as long as you're not flagged for Campaign, the mobs won't bother you I can see this being changed soon

350 dmg is ~2% of their HP so like 18,000 HP?


EDIT: Bleh Campaign happened and they despawned afterwards

EDIT2: They just repopped with full HP like 30 seconds later o_O no wait, as I was typing this Campaign music started again

I think they increased the EXP cap by a shitload. People keep saying, "Oh, I'm going to cash out now so I don't hit the cap." So they cash out at and get 600 exp, then wait for campaign to end and get another 700, totaling 1300. I kept my tags on the whole time and got 1400. I guess you don't REALLY have to cash out then rejoin.

[Hanyoko]

I think it was the patch ~1 week after launch that changed the 'cap' on exp to be relative to how long you have had the tag on you. At least that it what I have noticed.

[shieldsofwindurst]

Random note, didn't see anyone else's post-I was Just in west saruta when campaign started, so I started spamming /cmap to see how fast it updated. Took 45sec-1 min. So not perfect, but not bad, as anyone that missed the first 45 seconds of campaign probably missed nothing.

[Shabazz]

Since yesterday's additions to campaign, I'm feeling this as now made of pure win, it still needs some tweaks but SE is getting their and I'm enjoying this expansion over others :S - I don't believe i said that but hey its good.

[Slott]

We had a 9 wave fight last night in Jugner. The entire thing lasted about an hour and a half. Ended up fighting the war machine twice, gnadgad, one eyed whatever, bakgodek, shadowhand, deathlord and im sure a couple others. Was fun, but wasnt expecting a 5 min campaign to go to an hour and a half was tons of fun, and I like the changes they made.

Elemental DoTs work.

Anyone still cashing out early after that patch is a moron and most likely doesn't read patch notes. You're going to be far better off keeping the tags like you did. That's how SE designed it and why they changed it so you automatically lose your tags once the battle is over.
