Sol C

Mikeboy · 08-07-2003, 05:04 AM

So.... who else has found the "fun" Sol C mob?

You know... the one that hits for 65k+?

No, that wasn't a typo. I think the developers were just sitting there watching, waiting for someone to run into it, laughing their asses off; and I have to admit, it was pretty funny. I certainly didn't expect one of the beefiest warriors on the server to go down with one hit... and then for it to turn around and do it to the rest of us!

Oh, and it's not a proc, it's not a death-touch, it's actually how hard he hits; but the people who have already played around with him know how it works... it's not too bad. At least verant is trying new stuff /applaud.

Damn, they finally start doing something new, and they UN-DO it!

Ahh... Well at least I still have my screenshot... nothing like seeing a kick for 65k.

Someone who's currently exploring this zone should post some shots in SS forum... *hint hint*

I miss the 6k quadding AE-rampaging Diku Overseer in PoT. Nothing like watching an entire radi force die in ~30seconds

Mikeboy · 08-07-2003, 10:29 AM

Yea, but in contrast to the raiders, these were killable with 2-3 solid groups, just a little more stra-tegery; tbh I really would have liked them to stay in the game. I'll miss them

Since the took it out anyway, why don't you give us a brief explanation of what the mob did exactly, since it's apparently not a straight up 65k hit everytime.

Deimos · 08-07-2003, 11:48 AM

The mobs in questions were the six white con guards of the red con Gatekeeper named.

Sometimes if you killed five of the six guards, the last one would start 65k attacks on folks. Didn't always do it though.

There is some sort of power-up, power-down relationship between the guards and the named. When its all said and done, the named was fairly easy and his loot was garbage.

We just got finished doing that mini ring with 6 people and got the same gay earring from a fucking yellow con mob. Itemization in this fucking zone blows...

Widdles · 08-07-2003, 08:21 PM

Ok you did it with 6 people... do you expect some 190hp/mana 40sv all earring to drop for you guys? That earring screams high plat value~ ya plat is useless but I'm sure you can find something to do with it.

Iannis · 08-07-2003, 08:47 PM

you can eBay platinum. LDoN can pay for itself in no time.

Yeah, even in my 3 expansions old experience that earring looks gimp.

ganthornx · 08-07-2003, 08:55 PM

imo anything with < 50hp/mana that requires 6 level 65 people to get is broken RvR

Brodda Thep · 08-07-2003, 09:30 PM

Yeah, I don't know why they are so afraid to add some decent items to one groupable events. Take a look at the slime ring. Undoubtedly it probably has items that are a tad too good (dagger, warrior wrist, and caster gloves come to mind.) but it still is very good RvR.
