If you notice that the rainbow is always a grid around the boss with the same safespots every time you can probably figure out where you have to go to enter mario without this happening.

That’s more an issue of your dps not knowing what they have to do. Your dps should focus on taking down turret and balls after the player entered mario.

You can call a dps stop to wait for the curse if you really have issues with it otherwise just take a potion to recover your hp. Also supports tend to have heal/shields for showtime ready.

Are you talking about the mech that’s happening after every 2 curses? You either manage your hp properly or meet right before the end in the middle of the arena to get shielded/healed by support to help with that.

That is probably the hardest to solve because that requires some group positioning or proper use of battle items if it is a frequent issue.

The question is if you encounter these problems do you say unlucky and just try again hoping it doesn’t happen again or are you looking for a solution to solve these situations?

I’ve enjoyed the pugging experience. Sure, you quickly see who can’t pull their weight, but everyone that can has been added to my friends list and I’ve got a healthy list of “friends” who have plenty of alts capable of doing it and are always down when I send out messages. No static, just being social. Whodathunkit.

I’ve been pugging clown on 3 characters since it came out. First couple weeks were a little rough but now the runs go fine. G1/2 typically over quickly and G3 usually takes a bit as everyone needs to find some sketchy one shot to die to at least once each.

U want to nerf a raid thats that ezer then vykas?

Then people are stuck at g3 or something why u guys just dont do g1/g2 and g3 rehearsal.
And try next id again.

Or a better call make your own static or search a static for the first few weeks after u are so confortable going pug gain.

My advice would be to keep trying.
I was giving up the idea of doing G3 of Kakul, even on my main, and then i decide to try it in pugs with my alt 1490, just like that, being hothead.

I was with 1480-90 people and this was the smoothest run i’ve done so far.

And in the end one of them already had a server specially for kakul reclears, with nice people on it. No guild, no duties, we are playing together if we want to.

And about those who point failures, often with things like “It’s complicated to count to 5 ?!” for P2 vykas for example, just know those people are the first to find excuses when they fail something.

“I was stuck, comboed” or any kind of bullshit.

Personnally i just say to them “Keep talking, i only hear white noise” or even i don’t answer at all. That must not reach you, yes it’s annoying sometimes, but i met those people on Valtan, Vykas and even Argos P1 and i just ignore them, do the raids or quit and move on.

Maybe i’m saying this cause of my personnal experience. But honestly this isn’t that bad for now. Arses are everywhere and on internet they allow themselves to tell things they wouldn’t otherwise.

Last time one guy was keeping calling me “useless brain scrapper” cause i dashed too early on showdown. Yeah my bad, can happen, but you know what ? i don’t give a shit, i’ve done some more tries and stopped when i saw we would not clear the raid, because of me or not.

That’s because us who clear it in 1-2 pulls do it with a static group. I sometimes pug with alts and its true that reclear parties are a scam. That is why I always ask 5-10 clear achievement always

Yes, the solution is what I said above as I don’t want to be the only one left on the server after half an year.

I don’t care for this game to cater to the 1% elite, the game needs to have a big playerbase to function properly.

Nerfing the raid to keep the playerbase is more important than the 1% elite being upset it’s not hard. Go hell mode for that.

Source - I guessed, trust me bro

Source: steam player numbers dropping, reddit/forum/discord players quitting, AH having less and less drops on more and more servers, crystals skyrocket because whales are leaving, streamers dropping this game in favor of others etc

Just need to open your eyes to see it, that’s all.

LOL - source: my source is better than yours, trust me bro

Guess that’s 1% more than yours

I’ve been playing since beta, and after trying to run Argos, Valtan, and Vykas on release and not seeing clears because people don’t know the mechanics (on lobbies tagged with “know mechanics”) I’ve just stopped trying to run stuff on release. I get tired of being the last alive at 65% boss hp. I still see people struggle on Argos of all things.

What I did to guarantee my clears was pretty simple. Week 1 I did like 50 runs with no success but I managed to rate players by skills and measure their capabilities. After that I talked personally with 3 randoms about going all together and trying a few runs. We cleared it in 3 hours.

I am still running with the same people (except the 4th, who in most of the cases is random guy) and the last two clowns took around 1 to 1.5h. Keep in mind that we are not that well geared, most of us are with +20/21 weapons.

Going with totally random will and always will be nightmare. So instead of wasting the time just invest it in something like me and you won’t regred.

Doesnt matter. I played with a guy with 4 level 2 set piece, 10+ kills and he died several times BEFORE Mario 2. The playerbase is kinda 70% garbage, carried player.
Tilte, 1510+ ilvl and other bs doesnt matter, because the players are just bad.

LA player wants to raid but sees a mechanic:

Akkan/ Breshalza are easie…

It’s only 4th week, it took me like under 1 hour to pug g1 and g2 including lobby finding time. and g3 took another extra 1 hour. I’ve no idea how you are so unlucky with pugs lol. which region are you playing?
