    Missing the label only means that the patch note is missing, not that the changes don't go in.

    the reason we have design lock, is design changes tend to always go in.

    Well the spiders are, currently, completely negated by a tank (or anyone, really) wearing an EoK Wurmslayer. They hit for less damage than the Wurmslayer blocks so they cannot do any damage to you. Even the nameds don't hit very hard compared to nameds in other missions or the rest of the expansion, their level doesn't matter.

    As long as this doesn't become yet another mission that you must have an enchanter for, and I hope you have reduced the gap between spawn times of the spiders, as it was it was nice to have mobs that casters didn't die to if they got hit.

    As it was, it was a nice T1 mission where casters didn't die if they got whacked on spawn. Not looking forward to it if the spiders spawn as fast as they did and hit like trucks. If they are going to be harder can we have them not spawn when mobs are not engaged casters actually get off agro so they can med between the 4 boss mobs?

    When are the achievements going to get fixed?

    Is the achievement All Safe from Fire bugged in Empyr mission? I've done everything I possible know to try and figure out what a billow is and how to avoid it and nothing. I stood next to the invisible mob for a good 25 minutes and never got an AE or emote resembling getting hit with a billow. I searched through my logs like Sherlock Holmes How do we know if we get hit or not? I killed the mobs out of line of sight at the bottom of the hills on the opposite side from the bridge as was suggested. Nothing.
  5. Syylke_EMarr Augur

    Break line of sight from the "a divine force" mob when the zonewide emote goes off to avoid the AE.
  6. Tucoh Augur

    There is some debate on how to get this achievement. I personally pet tanked the four fire bosses and anytime the emote went off I just backed all my characters away from the bosses for twenty seconds or so.

    Other people say that backing off is unnecessary, you just need to be below the mob's Z axis.
  7. Triconix Augur

    I've run multiple attempts where I'm not LOS the entire time. Still don't get it. Why is there no single log pertaining to a billow? The divine force casts nothing the entire time. How is one supposed to know when they are eligible for the achievement? There's nothing to indicate if we are or are not like in the past. What emote specifically? There are multiple zone wide emotes.

    Ngreth, I know for a fact you designed this mission. Care to explain the premise of this achievement and how we are supposed to blindly accomplish it?
  8. Triconix Augur

    which emote and did you get the achievement? If so I'll just need to get my buddy to pet tank it

    Since the patch I get an error when I try to open the patcher
  11. Orbital101 Augur

    There is a way to know 15 seconds before it will be cast and if you have failed every 2 minutes...
  12. Tolzol Augur

    Every 2 minutes in group 5 minutes in raid

    - Contract of war now requires that you loot the Writ of Access - King in Esianti item before the king will spawn. The guardian mephits will spawn outside of the room so they do not open the door for you.

    This may be a stupid question but ... Since the door does not seem to open for me unless a mephit comes through it, how do we get the challenge "Re-Guard-Less" ? They just don't click open for me until the chest is opened ? Mephits seem to be the only way to open them ?

    On another note :
    Sagacious Great Jade no longer sells Runic Sortilege Sheets or Fine Runic Sortilege Sheets

    Really sad to see those go. FINALLY after all this time we don't (didn't) have to chase down lowby mobs to make sheets and poof off they go. While we are at it lets get rid of all the ores in POK and all the other vendor trash we used to have to farm days and days for to make 1-2 low level recipes ! <<<that last line was sarcasm>>>

    Off to ARX we go !

    Also from one my prior posts last round-up;

    If Delivery and Remodeling didn't get fixed, I would like to point out how exactly it bugs.
    On zoning in if Step one shows complete (which it does often for me ) there is no way to finish the mission.
    That is the bug!
    If it show 1/3 2/3 (remodeling) you can finish the mission with partial kills (as long as you get a completion message from that step)
    Why any of the steps would be complete or partially complete on zoning in I have no clue but that is what bugs the mission.

    I appreciate the response. Can't say I'm not disappointed, but there are other ways for us to get aggro in a pinch. Just not as effectively.

    Could you look into the issue of the cooldown graphic not displaying? When cast, sometimes the red overlay timer doesn't go on it. Might be just a lag issue though - I usually only see it on raids during burns, and I may be clogging my system with my spam key.
