    Second add being the one that spawns with the cactus. Sorry for the confusion. It hasn't changed at all. :) It really depends on your groups DPS. If you do a LOT, you'll only get the initial one that spawns the boss and 1 more. And it's done in 30-40 seconds. If slower, you might have to deal with a couple others. Your choice, depending on healing and tanking ability whether to kill them or just stay on the boss.

    It's definitely time based for additional mobs to spawn.

    Kill inital mob normal speed.

    Cactiki spawns with 2 adds, 1 is not on track, kill the one not on track the "sprouting..." it is these that spawn the additional adds (also needed for brown thumb). Hot key for ease of targeting "/targ Sprout" basically you are killing the Sprout before it grows to be a new cactus.
    Off tank "Burge...." Burn Cactiki and keep checking for any additional "sprouting" mobs.

    Killing "burge..." spawns more adds.

    Good luck :)

    Hit points lock if you have 4 or more adds up.

    Thank you for clearing that up. I thought you were saying ignore BOTH adds. Now I see what you mean.

    Got the mission and tried to taskadd 6th person who said they come late.
    Got Error - can not add .
    Droped the task and re-started - no issues.
    Click item - Kill 1st add ,pop burns at the end , 2 mobs spawn - Burn named ot the 2nd mob for the win. - Open chest - win.

    May be the RNG, but it seems like post patch chest is putting out less loot than it was regularly pre patch. Anyone else see the trend?

    Pre patch it seemed like every chest had 5-7 things (was pretty ridiculous), but now seeing a lot of 4’s with 1 spell 1 key piece 1 visible and 1 non vis or aug. Wuah Rabble go ^ . ^?

    Getting really tired of everything being a DPS check these days.
    Not everyone has 4 wizards they can pull out whenever needed.

    One wizard is plenty to make the group mission have no challenge and we don't even have the best burns.

    Getting really tired of people thinking it takes wild dps to defeat enemies. Reasonable, competent play from several gamers is not a high bar to ask folks to pass

    or any single dps class with an ADPS... or really any single dps class that knows what they're doing.... or several that don't.... or just 6 actual players that aren't also watching TV or playing on facespace....

    RNG. We just had a fairly large chest, and last time we went got only a couple items.

    It's not a DPS check. You can take 20 minutes to do it if you want. You just have to deal with each of the adds as they spawn and slowly DPS down the boss. Super high DPS just makes it very easy.

    The event is fairly easy providing you have the DPS (800k+). However, I do agree that they spend more time designing content and not make everything a DPS check.

    I tried to do this with my ranger or a mage pet tanking - it did not go well, never got a chance to try a burn with the casters :) Guess I need to find a proper tank to take with me!

    For a group of actual people even “pretty mediocre couple of button press” dps makes it very easy.

    Looks like it will be made harder next patch, but as I could not do it anyway it makes no change to me :)
