    Report: Couldn't enter the mission/TF door here!

    in Bug Reports

    Not an external mission entry, but an in-mission door/teleport issue (I don't know how closely this might be related to the requested bug).

     

    In the Vincent Ross (Sharkhead Island) mission "Learn the Source of True Power", at the stage "Enter the Blood Coral Crystal", the blood crystal "door" is frequently not functionally active. I get the "hand" cursor when mousing over the correct region of the crystal, but clicking it does nothing. It's started happening enough that even resetting the mission is often fruitless.

     

     

    Happening to me right now.  I've reset the mission 8 times.  Guess I will quit this arc and come back to it later

    Instanced Hami trail (The Abyss)

    in Suggestions & Feedback

    Posted

    Yes, instanced hami raids should be a thing.  Since the buds are the only thing left, they should be visible on the map like missions.
     

    Excelsior's 3pm daily MSR has switched over to iMSR (finally) and its so lovely. No griefers, more VG merits, more XP.  Same for TB's Friday night iMSR.  So lovely and yes, I swap servers for iMSRs.  Dont you !?

    With iMSRs, if you get kicked, they are removed from the instanced.  Combine that with player ratings, instanced events can be very smooth.

    I'm a little surprised by this since Psi holes and the like have been around forever and even sometimes mix things up a bit.

    Numbers on Invuln could use a downward adjustment IMO.

    Proliferate some of the love to other sets since Invuln is already regarded as very good despite the well-known Psi hole. 

     

    Yeah, Invul is the crowd favorite and it did not need help.  Reading that made me wonder if someone plays as an Invul tank

    Indomitable Needs Your Help

    Yeah.  IIRC, Indomitable had zone MSRs for years, but too many people kept coming on lowbies trying to leech and use the MSR to get power leveled, so they switched to instanced.

    I started on Indom.  Learned to how to MSR on my tank thanks to Eda's twice nightly MSR's for over a year.  Eda's runs were amazing.  Dedicated Stormies to push Rikti down into the bowl. Tanks had set areas to pull. I remember coming away with 1800 merits per run.  Can't say that for other servers for multiple reason.

    Personally I prefer the instanced version over open zone for several reasons but it does restrict the numbers that show up.

    Also, Hey Apparition!  **HUG HUG HUG** 

    Lastly, stop destroying the (BLEEPing) grates.  Taunt them.  It acts as a PB Wide AoE taunt , pulling the Rikti down from the upper ledges.  Blowing the grates will lower your VG merit count.

    Hello everyone !

    **HUG HUG HUGS App**

    I solo'ed this on my Bio tank it was *GREAT*! (no deaths but it was set at its lowest difficulty) Thank you so much for the hard work and the time that was invested.  It was thoroughly enjoyed!

    Reading all of these comments makes me want to run it again!

    Personally, its never about the merits.  I am here because I enjoy the game.  This new addition is very enjoyable.  I have no doubt that next year, people will have optimized this down to bare bones but until then, run it, enjoy it, viva la HC !

     

    More hugs ** HUG HUG HUG ! **

     

    PS. Edit one, didnt mention the difficulty.  Edit two, spelling can be difficult

    In your opinion or experience what is the tank that just keeps going regardless of enemy type, number of enemies, etc. The one that faces hordes of CoT or Vanguard wizards and laughs, the kind of tank that walks over and kicks Scrapyard in his ass.

     

    The last person standing kind of tank, the one that puts "super" into superman, the Unstoppable in Juggernaut, etc.

     

    I realize survivability is more than the damage in dealing with a tank, and I love my broots, but, I want a runaway train kind of tank.

    image.png.ed2bbbffe10ed7f899bee97fba9562a1.png

     

    If max survivability is the goal, here is my Bio Katana tank at 10 enemy saturation, Melee Defense Hybrid is running and Rebirth Radial is going,

     

    In Defense Adaption (tank mode) she has 3146 HP + 1874 Absorb Shield for effective HP of 5020.  Base regen is 45.82 HP/S with Absorb on its 75.93 HP/s.  She has two different ways to hit max regen of  327.72 HP/s.

     

    In Offense Adaption (dps mode) she has 2977 HP + 1764 Absorb for 4741.   Regen is 43.36, 71.86 and 310.15 HP/s.  This is what I run for almost everything.

     

    Bio has a larger Absorb Shield than Rad Armor (longer recharge though, T7), a melee life leech/heal like Dark Armors (longer recharge with only 538 per target, T8) and Bio's T9 combines those two for a melee life leech with Absorb Shield that also maxes out recovery.  Bio armor is amazing.  It far outshines the Stone tank I had back on live.

     

    The lack of Defense Debuff Resist usually isn't an issue.  Recharge debuffs will be your undoing, if enough of it hits you. Think Positron, Death Rider. If T7, T8, and/or T9 get significantly slowed, you will have a bad day.  Thankfully, their are inspirations and Accolades that can help mitigate that situation as well.

    How and Where to Hunt - Defeat Badge Guide

    in Guides

    Posted · Edited by Lorraine of Pinnacle
    Added 'Originally' to first sentence, making it clearer.

    Blue Ink Men

     

    Originally they appeared in Talos Island Safeguard and Siren's Call.  Now, they also appear in Dark Astoria, which makes getting this badge a breeze.  By the time you finish the DA arc, you should -easily- have this badge.

     

     

    Banisher

     

    Another super easy one.  Unai's first mission is usually Close the Dimensional Portals.  Its a BP map based on DA's graveyard.  Have a tank/brute friend aggro 10 elders.  Then sit back and pick off the masks that spawn.  No need to kill the elders or reset the map.  The elders will summon a mask every 60 - 90 seconds.  Just wait and pick them off as they are summoned.
