Walk of Echoes

[Azuark]

Does anyone have a Solid Strategy on #1 Crabs? we might be doing a run of it today

[Uzor]

I have no idea how to enter the 4th-7th one... We've won #1-#3, and 1 person scored in top 5 each time... No one still has access to #4-#7

dunno wtf is up with these.

[Terrestrialrage]

Our Aegis/Excal Pld who placed first in #1 and #3 wasnt there today for #2 win. I placed 1st in #2, 2nd in #1, and 5th (2 deaths) in #3. I have no access to #4-7... If you have to have all 3 titles.... gg SE, lol...

Think they said they'd unlock further wings in future updates, so probably just 1-3 for now.

They said (in the update notes):

The number of battlefields available will at first be limited, but more can be unlocked in succession by cooperating with other players and securing victory in preceding battlefields. Additional battlefields are being planned for future version updates.

Seems to imply that there are at least some unlockable battlefields right now. Also, the mob list I posted in the dat mine thread had some mobs we haven't seen yet.

[Cichy]

[EternalSnow]

awesome! Thanks.

[Karbuncle]

awesome! Thanks.

Should be noted, "Avatar: Magic attack Bonus+3" will not work with PUPs and junk =x

[Eldelphia]

Sac pullers and most support jobs (RDM, WHM, BRD, COR) did not get to lot or even view the items that dropped due to "lack of participation".

Are you serious? There's nothing for support? In which case I'm not taking my shell into this event as a group. I realise some items can be passed around but until they acknowledge that mages actually make it possible for melee to fucking exist, I'm not going there.

[Kincard]

I'm curious, how much have you done WoE so far to get that many, and how many of those were wins?

[Altanass]

my LS has implemented a DKP system now. Officers lotting all drops. We are fortunate to have 36 members but sometimes a random or two do manage to get in ...

But that still doesnt solve the fact that if an officer cannot open a chest, but someone else can then ;-/ .......

I managed to net just over 1k xp on bard and was able to see treasure pool. 1k seems the minimum threshold.

Also, if someone gets the coins/purses of coins (think salvage purses) then it is theirs to keep i think, i dont think coins are sellable/tradeable?? So yeh...someone yesterday got a bag full of coins for a weapon they dont even use! ok!!....


It just seems everything players hated got implemented in this.

No one liked twats messing up dynamis runs, or mpk'ers at HNMs.

No one likes being told by the game itself! that their fully meritted and levelled job has poorly performed!


p.s. Did SE beta test Walk of Echoes or not >_<

p.s.s. Anyone notice Veridical Conflux's look exactly like ff14 aethryte >_> i get the impression ff14 will be a mix of walk of echoes and abyssea, i'm put off now! lol

Coins of decay are good for the "cop out" version of the Emperyan bow. Also, god damn, ancient beast horn. I want those so I can make my shiny new pair of Arewe Rings +1.

It's even more important to balance the rewards in an event which isn't linkshell only...

We don't have 36, I think we could muster 18-24 at most. We zerg kirin with less than 18 most of the time and he's a popular event. Even if we team up with buddies in our ein/dyna shell this is just a huge headache for me and for our sack team.

So either take the ls points systems out of it and reward everyone according to their effort or allow officers to at least monitor it.

But on a personal level, and putting forward a far more selfish position than I am ever likely to take, how on earth am I supposed to enjoy an event where my participation isn't recognised as worthwhile? And how am I to promote it to anyone in shell who could come support/healer?

[Karbuncle]

I hope no Linkshell gets a lockdown on those things on Asura.

when that happens Dime a dozen synth mats become 500k a piece and it shit that is about as common as and should cost about as much as Fools Gold ore is going for 200k a piece ;;

Congrats on your drops though =), you better crash the price of those Beech Logs =| i want ma damn HQ Funguars!

Obviously this event was intended for 12 pld/dnc, 6 rdm/nin, 6 nin/dnc (for sac pulling), 12 sam/dnc.

Yeah, and for groups of otherwise decent people to completely ignore/mpk other people participating.

What's the point of curing/raising anyone else? And what's the point in intruding in another group's session? Anyone with any sense is going to just leave the stragglers to it. They're going to get pissed and mess things up and the main group is going wipe and then ensure that the stragglers don't get a look in.

If you want to go into Walk of Echoes when a group of 18+ are in there, you'd better make sure that you have a self sufficient party...

The basic unit of organisation in this game is a linkshell, it's inevitable that linkshells will want to do this together. I'm so annoyed right now. I really hope I'm missing something but this is just a headache.

slimes can be done with way less than the 30 belkin mentioned

rdm kiter x2(2 slimes each, out of pt)

mnk x3 brd brd cor

whm whm rdm blm blm blm

bit time intensive, could probably replace mnks with pld or any other dd tank fine but the extra hp buffer is nice.. all buffers sub whm and each dedicated erase a mnk, one mage to a mnk for hastes to make sure you get it back up immediately after slow

add another melee pt if you're short on time, they seem to have enough regain that tp feed isn't an issue as much as standing in dissolve cone
