Walk of Echoes

[ccf]

Yup the lag is horrid and the drop rate of spells are horrid.

Plus now, on carby , everyone is only doing the easy ones, aka flux 5+7+9 so making the wait on queue competing to get in even more so, there is more than 200 ppl at times for 3 zone... 36x3 =108 max...It's not like other zones are that bad that 36 ppl can't kill.

^ This, everyone on Shiva keeps doing 9 and 7, sometimes 8, never gonna unlock 11 if they won't do 10. The worst part is they'll sit and wait at that conflux until they can get in, as if the game day wait wasn't bad enough.

[Taint]

Holy fucking summoners.... this lag is atrocious lol

The worst part is with 36 people in a zone, SMNs aren't even good to have, all they do is screw up hate.

[NynJa]

How does screwing up hate matter when the Jetbutoises do shit like 3k Tetsudo Tremors and everyones weak to begin with, and the only people actually doing dmg are the smns?

[Kaisha]

Not to mention that even if people came as proper jobs, there's no coordination, thus would just end up with dead DDs everywhere because there's too much TP feed.

Asura's been pretty much flux 7 (for coins) & 9 (for loot) only the past day now. Thankfully for whatever reason, my ancient PC has zero problem with the visual effects FFXI so lazily employs, so I got zero lag here even with 20+ avatars onscreen.

[EDIT] Cool, 11 unlocked on Asura.

Does a "proper job" really counter this?

It's like they forgot we don't have cruor buffs and atmas in WoE...

[Lordender]

Love the random shouts by melee DD wanting to make a group and say "smn and bst only" lmao I just chuckle because its so ass backwards that i'm not used to seeing smn/bst only shouts.

[NynJa]

I'm really curious how the fuck you're supposed to get past that without relying on smn's (and bst's I guess, but call timer recast could be a hinderance). Even if somehow hit PDT cap, I've got less than 1500hp on my nin, and STILL gonna die.

Clearly you need umm.... Earth Resist set, WHM barspell and BRD. Then a NIN migi rotation and is that even magic dmg? .... ahhh dammit just bring the SMNs !


Almost 200 people in zone on Saturday JP time on Baha.


Official Forum Style Dice fixing idea: Put a Qiqirin NPC somewhere that will give you 1 Dice for any coin you bring him. Bam.. fixed and balanced.

You're thinking too new-school, it's clearly a Genbu v2 and we're supposed to kite it all day.

[dasva]

I thought we were supposed to zombie dot it...

Or just award Walk of Echoes points every time you clear. Then buy loot you want with accumulated points. Random drops should have been ended as a game element years ago, this fixes every drop issue everywhere in endgame.

Short of EA + Scherzo you're fucked really

[NynJa]

Just cleared 11....between my 3 chars, I got 1 dice, 0 scrolls, 1 coin of glory....and misc junk.

I've yet to see a pouch in any of the new chambers.


We actually coordinated teamwork!. Sac pulled boss to entrance, recovered, then had guardians pick strays that tried to assist, and mostly smn's killed NM. Its a pretty easy sac pull, drop pt, die at boss, rejoin pt, aggro boss...or not, the boss isnt chasing all the way to entrance.

It doesn't seem to be physical damage (did 3k through a fresh Fan Dance, which should have cut physical by 80-90% (I forget)).

So yeah, Earth resist and an Aegis PLD should probably be taking it like a boss. Not that you're going to see that, just that you could.

Are Orichalcum Ingots dropping in WoE?

[Martel]

Yeah, tetsudo tremor is earth based magical dmg. Used to resist the shit outta it vs lacovie. Still get stunned though.

What doesn't drop O ingots nowadays?

Figured as much. Been trying to save up 30 stacks. Logged on this morning and there were 70 of them on AH @_@ I'll wait a bit for the price to drop.
