To prepare for this survival mode, I'm preparing by getting all of my gear up to date. I wasn't too interested in the content of the most recent episode so I have to play some catch-up. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to participate in the last survival mode event that we had since I was taking a short break from the game. I'm really looking forward to seeing what all of the fuss is about! If you have any tips for me, I would really appreciate them. Will you be participating in this survival mode event? If so, how will you be preparing?
Yes. By buying a second set of elite gear. Other than gearing up, and maybe levelling a few artifacts instead of sitting on the nth metal, I’m not sure what prep anyone can do.
Equipment, SP, artifact, yes of course this is important if you want to advance above round 10 (last time if you were a very good healer or tank, you could even reach round 5 with bad pugs, with averages up to round 10), but the most important aspect is a group, a well-played group or at least a group of good players. We have somewhere 2, maybe 3 weeks left before the start ... personally, I would advise to devote this time to finding potential group members ... (it's a pity that the developers said so late, when the CM will be), but if you do not have a stable group you will be able to find at least one person and this will greatly increase your chances ...
Catheter, bed pan if you've got shaky hands works well too. A dozen cases of mountain dew. Which will fill the catheter.
