I can probably help with gearathon raids if 420 hit and being a sorta bad but can work on it and get better are requirements.

Practically everything last night was rogue stuff, except like one cloth piece and the cleric boots off...whatever the first boss of EE is.

Also, is there really a fight worth going 21 into shaman for for the second interrupt? It seems like a waste of mitigation/hp for marginal utility gain. I can see the use of purge/cleanse builds, but the double interrupt I can't really see, unless you need to solo interrupt Matriarch or something, I guess.

So they fixed the exploit on Eggtenders.

We were barely beating the enrage with 275k raid dps. (nevermind countless wipes because of other stuff)

did they fix getting stuck inside the geometry when you harpoon to an egg?

anyway i dont think that the dps check is that tough since you'll most likely have plenty of dps; i guess you'd probably skip the last egg phase too and just burn the tender.

First thing out of Murven's mouth: Sorry Sochun, not a bard dagger.

EDIT: From my newbie perspective, I think things went pretty well for farm night, barring the strange drama about loot/breaks/whatever else. Things were definitely smoother the week before (for my first time), but considering we had basically four new folks (including me) and hit 7/9 in the same timeframe, that was pretty good!

you will need group heals and maybe a defiler (probably not though). i would say breaker is easier than fixed eggtenders, but your 2 main dps groups absolutely need to be on point for that fight. here's a loot list for t2 bosses from the rift forums:

quote:

On summary where you can get what :

Helmet: Volan
Shoulders: Proteus
Chest: Planebreaker
Gloves: Warden Thrax or GA first 2 bosses
Belt: Eggtenders or GA first 2 bosses
Legs: Inyr`Kta or Ultane
Feet: Breaker X-1, Krizzix or GA first 2 bosses

Mainhand: Mordan&Viktus or Proteus
Offhand: Inyr`Kta
2h: Inyr`Kta
range: Warden Thrax
neck: Salvarola, Mordan&Viktus or Eggtenders
trinket: Ultane
ring: Salvarola, Breaker X-1, Krizzix

relic weapons of all kind: Volan and Planebreaker

it's interesting to see that ultane is the only boss that drops trinkets (assuming planebreaker doesnt), which is extremely poor design imo, because there are also legs in his loot table and he only drops one piece of loot. also, breaker shares a loot table with krizzix, which seems absurd.

also did anyone who managed to get a shadow hellbug note what time they went on sale? people are telling me it was 8pm server which really fucks me over, being an EU player.

one of these days i'll find a mount that matches my wardrobes :(

That sounds roughly correct. I saw a random person linking it on Level 60@Greybriar between Ultane pulls and thought it was too late in the day/week for a new drop from the event so I checked the Store and bam.

Nephelle is a Defiant Rogue and my alt Lenwel is a Guardian Cleric. Depending on what you need more, I can make my main.

By the way, I dropped about $5 to get the 3 Day Pass (still have the leftover credits) and some roles for my Rogue two days ago and I plan on dropping $50 sometime next week (8,250). Will get the Storm Legion Souls (3,150), the 30-Day Pass (2,160), and two character slots (648 each for 1,298) and making that the only money I spend on the game outside of subscription. Like, I refuse to spend anymore on credits after this.

I will have around 1,906 credits to spare and I want to make the most of them. What would you recommend getting? I don't care for cosmetics or convenience items unless it's actual mobility, and if only if the purchase applies to all my characters.

Get the portal generator for a free port anywhere on the map you're on (telara/SL map), some rune and socket unsocketers? There isn't a whole lot that's necessary by any means, most of it is convenience and cosmetics. Maybe another bag slot? Those are always handy.

Keep in mind that the purchase prices you are seeing now, include a 10% discount for having patron status (you got the 3-day pass).

If you're going to spend more credits than (3-day pass x 10), buy a 3 day pass first, then spend the credits. Due to the discount, you will break even or come out ahead AND have patron status for a few days afterwards.

edit: one more non-intuitive thing is when you hit P and go to patron tab, the daily things that give bonus exp, notoriety, etc when you lose patron status you lose all charges so be sure to use them before patron status expires :)

edit2: I actually don't know if having patron status reduces the cost of buying more patron status, does anyone know?

edit3: cost of 30 day patron status is 2160, I currently have patron status. that's 10% less than 2400 so I'm leaning towards yes the discount even applies to additional patron status purchases

Keep enough aside for a level 60 mount for your main, that's the best value/cost for useful items from the store. Mounts are per-character purchases.

Hell, I think you can just buy the mount and throw it in your bank for now so it doesn't eat up inventory space. Just in case you have a problem saving credits (like me).

There doesn't seem to be any activity in the channel that I've seen other than 'x has joined/left the channel.'

so i honestly cannot tell if eggtenders has been "fixed" or not

the tenders still dont do the spinning mechanic/big bubble mechanic if you range it, but now they gain a stacking buff which makes them attack faster and they hit your tank. even at 20 stacks though, the damage seems pretty meh, defiler or not. the eggs have a pulse that can be interrupted but the interrupt doesnt seem to do anything even though the castbar stops. the eggs arent up on the platforms (they probably never will be tbh) either. the enrage actually does stuff now.

it seems like they upped the tank damage to deal with tanks ranging it, but it hasnt worked. it's safe to say every aspect of the fight is pretty much hosed, except for the enrage, which is now reasonably tight (280k~ raid dps).

on the bright side, proteus trash only took us 15 minutes last night, and the big crab's wave aoe seems to do nothing at all even if you stand in it. those witches are still the loving WORST though.
