Alb and Mid final encouters

[censi]

Have you managed to get to them or do them yet guys???

I hear your epic dungeons are piss easy according to the yanks (and yet again hibernias final encouter has been made near impossible "working as intended"). I just wanted to confirm if you got any where with them.

we got to the first horseman last saturday, theres 4 then apocalypse so yes were onto the final bit.

the time befor when we had a lot more people wetook longer and got stuck in our final encounter.

The entire TG is duoable with a zerker+shaman(aug/mend), alb's is doable with a fg pallies together(the aura of gimpness they radiate is enough to make mobs kill themselves), but hibs you need the entire hib population from all the servers to even keel the entrance mobs


Powerlvl my chanter or druid or hero to a decent lvl and Ill tell you if the Hib SI dungeon is much harder/easier then the mid one

 

[[PS]Nova]

Never been in Caer Sidi.

Seen it from a distance, mind you. But then I had to run away because the whole area was scary.

 

[Cap'n Sissyfoo]

A full group of my guild (well, actually the ENTIRE guild...we only have 7 people + 59 alts) made it all the way up to the top of the Caer Sidi ramp and into the place! A level 40 armsman managed to get almost 5.0 bulbs just on the trip up! Then we fought some uber parrying mob who kicked our butts all the way back to Caer Gothwaite. Git.

Not before we took 2/3 off his life bar. Rah!

 

[[PS]Nova]

LOL!

Unfortunately my main is a cleric and seeing as there's only me in my guild except about 1 other person who plays very rarely, doing a Caer Sidi guild raid is a bit impossible!

 

[old.Wildfire]

1fg pallies will never get through even the first couple of sidi mobs - simply because of the number of attackers required to hit and all that sheet.

 

[NetNifty]

went in with 2fg of AoP (avengers of pendragon, not alliance of power ), got ganked by a mob about 3 hours in killed the snake woman tho used ungrped cabby for pullin.

 

[Khalen]

You found the page with Hibs final boss info yet? He's not much difficulter then ours... just some basic things you need to know (well everyone on the raid) and you should be able to get at least some of em down...

 

[loxleyhood]

Unfortunatly it will seem that apocalypse will not be done on Excalibur for a long time yet, Saturday was really our only chance before he is beefed up next patch, takes about 120 people to kill him now, and even thats tough as hell.

 

[NetNifty]

would have also been nice if those flying swords didnt bug too :/

 

[loxleyhood]

Sidi is notoriously bugged, you wouldn't have been able to tell but pulling was a nightmare.... you can actually stand in front of a mob 5 paces away and be told the target is not in sight.

 

[dakeyras]

The raid at weekend was great fun, but we lacked the numbers to have a realistic crack at Apoc.

Still, all we can do is keep trying and keep farming the drops and eventually he will fall.

They really need to sort the bugs out though. Twice I couldn't target the mob even with relogging. Kinda frustrating.

tell them theres a fg mids there and you will have em swarming

 

[loxleyhood]

It will have to be a fg of norsewomen.......

 

[Spix]

just bring a necro or chanter and you wont have any los problem...

 

[loxleyhood]

Again, next patch necros are as blind as the rest of us

 

[Tyka]

Killed 80% of all the mobs in hib epic dungeon on a guild trip, we were ~ 3fgs.

 

[Flimgoblin]

with 3 well tooled out groups you can make it to the 10th keyholder...

I imagine hibs epic dungeon's no harder than the other two realms - just you have more casters, less tanks, and also less population in general.

Funny, I found it to be a fairly accurate and balanced assessment.. Whatever floats yer boat though I guess

 

[Gahldir]

It's funny cuz nowhere around have they killed even the FE bodyguards. normal servers, co-op or pendragon test. that's what I base it on. what do you base your oppinions on?

 

[Vorcyn]

Best you read again

A fact has been stated about the hib realm in general. Show me a server where this is not true.

nowhere around have they killed even the FE bodyguards

Read the 1st quote to find out why.

I believe you'll find that the raids pre-1.60 have been very under-staffed mainly due to the risk vs reward being so crap at the moment.

You want 100+ people to spend an afternoon in the place for ~10 drops between them all? Not really going to happen. Next patch gives more like 30 drops for a raid, so I'm sure you'll see a whole lot more turn-out, so much faster raids, etc.

Heh try hib dragon raids, more like 200 ppl engaged all afternoon with the only reward being multiple xp-deaths
