Nyzul Lamp Order Trick, no its not random order

[willriker]

i guess this has been debunked, thanks for the feed back. nothing to see here

[Sho]

You awesome person, you.

[Loziel]

That is pretty awesome info. I will try this when we next get dumb order lamps.

[Araius]

Oh, snap. Needs more testing/confirmation, but that's pretty awesome if true :nikkei:

[Eldelphia]

If even part of this is true, then it will save us endless hassle. We run a group where only half tends to be static... so we've had to explain lamps to many random people.

[Capo]

its only hard to work out the order if somebody messes up and doesnt say anything, but if this is true i guess it makes it a little easier

[Ashira]

The thing that sucks about this is that half of Nyzul floors are running in circles anyway, and there are no maps, so just because you run to one farther away, it may not actually be the FURTHEST away...

Ok, or maybe I just have a very terrible sense of surrounding and direction...

[sleekmotorwurkz]

Wrong, aside from it being over simplified and im 100% sure that it doesnt work like this, we did nyzul 2 days ago and I can confirm this is false.

When we do lamp floors, we run in and hit the lamps as we go through for our first order, and not just the last time we went, but many other times before that we have gotten it on the first try. So the farthest lamp being first... no.

[Zidiane]

Someone make a type of Node plugin (Set point start and go to each lamp and set points there).

I think its faluse tho, i can remember the lamp nearest to Rune (Start place) being second in the chain mulitiple times.

The lamp floors are pretty easy tho.
All switch lamps on, lamp which are in the right order stay on, switch the others around and you got it, lamp floors take my group 1-3mins to do now.

i dunno, weve been doing nyzul since it came out. and it seems to have held up. Ive been watching this many times now and would post it if i wasnt convinced it was true..

the main difficulty is that some times its not easy to know which lamp is closest or farthest. sometimes, what i call the radial distance from the start point, is difficult to guestimate. but this rule of thumb is a really great trick. and even if it just helps you to get one lamp nailed down first try, its worth using.

I dont expect anyone to just take my word for it, this is bg not alla, people test things for accuracy before believing it here. So, by all means test it for yourself. lol you wont hurt my fealings.

Yes. LOL.


But ya, this trick seems to have worked for our static. Sadly we need a trick for more Askar Bodies. >.>

Lamp Floors are one of the easiest floors, heh. Besides specified enemy and free floor, the only thing that makes lamps hard are sometimes the sight aggro around the lamps.

The only way a lamp floor can make or break your run is if:
1. All of your players have down syndrome.
2. Bad luck with sight aggro.

3. The lamps are surrounded by Archaic Gears with a secondary objective of avoid being discovered by them, and some Soulflayers and Imps for shits and giggles

Luckily I haven't had that one in a while.

Kill the gears, have a BRD or WHM carefully sleep hold the Soulflayers. Touching a lamp removes the hate aggro. Not a run breaker.

Because people stay together on lamp floors right?

[shihei]

you do if its a floor like what was mentioned

[OctavoGilgamesh]

Last night I wanted to try out this theory, but half of my static is on break. Turns out a friend invites me to burn a tag with his group and sure enough, a order lamps floor comes up. Well I talked about this thread, and since I read things so thoroughly, I said closest lamp = first.

Turns out that was the proper order! Nice try though op. I thought about it afterwards that maybe the others were truely a closer to the portal by straightline distance, but that just wasn't possible last night as the first lamp was the next room over from the portal, not more than 15 distance away or so.

I guess one lamps floor isn't enough to disprove your theory, as like mentioned previously, a lot of the floors wrap around in circles. If something changes, I'll repost.

yes, it is.

when someone states an absolute theory all it needs is one exception to disprove it.

[willriker]

well, i guess others havent had same trend as i had experienced. thanks for the feedback guys.

...i was so convinced too. sorry to waste time. its weird though, cause this works for us many many times now.

Maybe it has something to do with moon phase, which direction you are facing, what day it is and ebon panels, just a thought.
