Orcus discussion thread

[GM-Azote]

As experienced in the event:

Orcus has 10m HP, abuses earthquake, uses wide meteor storm on rude attack, uses pulse strike just for fun, heals a lot and changes to ghost element on 1/3 life approx.

Orcus is going to be located in Thanatos tower, on a new floor, with a natural respawm time of possibly 8 to 12 hours. To enter the floor, the party needs to spend Thanatos quest items such as stones or fragments.

The main gear of interest is Orcus Bracers, dropped at 9% (12% during the 7/7/4).
It's trans only, slotted once, grants +2 str and +3% damage on demi-humans. It's quite much the equivalent of Orlean Gloves to the STR characters, but doesn't combo with any other gear.

There shouldn't be any need to compare this to the accessory that grants +40 str. It's not the same game balance impact. By adding this accessory, Pandora and I knows that we are pushing the gear slightly higher, quite like Gravity does with every patch.

I want to have your impression about the gameplay you experienced during your fight against Orcus.
