He was fun to kill in a ginormous group where you can die every few minutes then respawn sort of easily.. But I think it'd be too hard in Thanatos tower, if you all die you have to run back again, and he heals too right? And you'll have to keep spending stones/fragments to get back in.I have no opinion on the items he drops, but he seems a lil' too hard. But... we did manage to kill him sooo...

Ha I still vote "too hard". I died way too much not to vote for that..

That's two words.


And by the sounds of it, anyone with a GTB survives pretty well, which is only a handful of people in the server. Maybe 5 to 7 people, by my count.

I don't believe the map would warp you out on death, that seems counterproductive..

[azurerogue]

You're also asking for judgements of difficulty based on what sounds like a mass-PvM/MvP event. Those are always harder than using an organized group with experience/tactics.

Out of curiosity, why only +3% dmg on demi humans? Isn't this supposed to be the str version of an orlean's glove? Why not +3% dmg on non-boss and boss monsters instead?

I know. :X
Even monsters like Nidd etc had very different taking down styles as players learned to counter him, even with fully prepared, specific parties.



As for the latter part, you'll need to await an answer from Azote or Pandora, sorry.

Like I said I didn't like the mvp being frozen, stunned or cursed because after all he's a mvp. Pandora said it makes him special tho.

The Evil Land merged with EQ, Fire Pillars, Meteor Storm and iirc Meteor Assault was too much, people were dying just standing out of range. In my opinion the mvp skills should be divided in phases, like Satan Morroc, according to it's HP.

Other than that the Mvp looks awesome and the map is going well.

[GM-Pandora]

Orcus wasn't flagged as a boss which is why he could be knocked back and status'ed, that will be fixed before release.

The ginormous wasn't very organised, so +1 to what azurerogue just said. It doesn't take GTB to beat Orcus.

[Shikari]

If only he had been undead you could have TU'ed him u.u

[iSpam]

or just coma him since status can affect him, why didnt anyone thought of that during the event after seeing him being affected by statuses =.="
