Tartaros Staff Encounter...

[Ame]

Just wondering what is wrong with this encounter.. is it ment to spawn salamanders even with 3 people attacking the mob..?

Really annoying, trying it twice, for lots of times now, and my grp(s) keep dying.

If anyone can help, its up atm.. not sure what group I need though. Guide says 4 wizzies, pal, 2 clerics and a shield tank and pwr field outside, but can't get any from our /as.

Btw grp setups that we have consist of 3 peeps - sometimes friar, pal, cleric, and sometimes 2 pals guarding each other, and a cleric. Really need help on this!

Also my english sucks, so I appolagize if you have no idea wtf I'm saying.

Yes salamanders now spawn whatever, it was fixed last patch I believe, and is further nerfed, sorry, fixed, next patch.

One tactic that I've heard works well is 2xtanks, a ML5 cleric, random classes as appropriate and a sorc spamming confuse on the sallies - that way they pretty much sort each other out. I'm interested in doing the encounter for credit too so if I'm on drop me a PM and I'll come help.

Doing it again with a mincer/cleric combonation, and seems to have got the mob stuck around 60-70% hp... taking forever, but futhest I've got it.

Best we've managed is 1fg with 3x BoF and someone aoeing and dragging all Sallys away at the end and/or Sorcs using confuse. In both scenarios we die after we got the loot

Are the sallies popping?

Are the sallies popping?

Not with the cleric and minstrel duo.

 

[Ame]

We died after a mincer came, and shortly after they left some salamanders popped... not sure if its linked. Mincer said stuff pops at 40%, but not sure if thats true either.

Curse Mkay!

Ive done Tartaros Gift with 1 50 Matter Cabalist and
Cleric 41rejuv 35enhance worked fine
done it 5 times, but also noticed he spams sallys now so dont work atm

Would have thought the best bet would be to have 2 x ML5 clerics, 2 x pbae ice wiz, 1 x pbt theurg, 1 x pally, 2 x tanks and destroy the sally adds with the pbae.

A pally or reaver constantly running heal / dmg chant could draw the sally agro and kite them.

Could try having 1 person disband pull the main mob and then move it as far away as possible then the rest of the group pile onto it see if you can kill it before the sallys zerg you.


I could do with this staff on my Theurgist if you need help.

problem with pbaoe is that these mofos have 50% ice resist and shitload of hp.

There are some posts on vn about sallys not popping if u kill the anathemyc or so 1 but i never tested it myself, i did it a few times without sally spam tho tought it was luck, might be the big salamander thing

did it today with 6.
2 paly, theur, 2 cleric and sorc. sorc wasnt even needed i think.
salamanders dont spawn before 40%. in our case it was 20%. we waited long enought with petspam till salies spawned then spammed it with theurpets

With just little under a fg they spawned straight away..

With a 3 person grp (2 tanks, 1 cleric), and the rest of us down the hill, they still spawned. We figured it was bugged still from the previous attempt.. might try it again some time..

Then we tried it with a mincer and cleric (fully buffed), with a orange salamander pet charmed. Mob got to 40% before spawning salamanders and they soon died..

If your doing it again, can you pm me ingame if I'm online. If I could help with dmg output, or buffs could I roll for the staff aswell.. else I'll be fine with just the credit

it can be done with 3 ppl with any sallys spawning, the trick is to get as fare away you can, the mob most be at its fare point just where it would start to dd you, from there on you can kill it so no sallys spawn, note thatif you have a friend that whould like to do a back style better move around so the cirkel is at your side, so your friend isent closer to the cirkel then the mob
