The new player/character experience sure is rough. :(

Odyssey needs segment farms for people of a wide variety of skill/gear levels.

Sheol A/B/C should be 2 levels apart.
Sheol D/E/F should be created at item 135/140/145.

I want to actually play with people who have goals/objectives/gear progression/etc

How about MM2?

I've never participated in these runs, but I've heard reports of ~50k or so from BLU cleaving. The mobs aren't worth THAT little, you just need to kill shitloads of them to get good value.

You're not gonna do it solo though. And of course, if you raise the mob values by much (nearly anything) then they could easily eclipse the value of bosses, so even a ~25% increase in muffin values (completely irrelevant for a single newb farming 20 accuex) could tip the balance and make doing the bosses pointless (except for earring chances I guess).

The mobs are there to give people something to do with the time they have. They're there to make traversing the zones dangerous (you need to drop invis to hit bitzers, devices, etc.). They're there for the objectives.

Meanwhile...

That is sexy as hell!

Idk how much you're going to get. Pld 2xblu cor geo brd. Pld pulls, buff and cleave/ae. Can do without brd probably.

Whats the strategy to get 40-50k with a lowman group cleaving basement with BLUs?

Reminder that this is the guy who literally wiped to the first mob he saw in Sheol A.

You need to DL whereiswhereisnm to find out where the add on went.

If you’re not sure where to find it, look up whereiswhereiswhereisnm

I kinda hink the fill of mobs was to make it interesting for people in the beginning to try to figure out how the Sortie system worked. Now that everyone knows, though, most of the mobs are skipped. i wonder if they're just good for casual farming on a night you can't find a group, but some Galli is better than no Galli.

I'll come for everything except August and Bahamut/Chaos, cause, you know, lol.

I think you're overselling the difficulty a bit. Back when I was a semi-scrub returnee, I used to enter with two others and we'd split up and make solo trust parties to farm(poorly). Job mastered with decent gear for that era, but pre ML, no REMAS, no Naegling, Malignance, Ody gear or even Unity augments.

Fresh chars in 117 would have issues, and it's only really viable for jobs that can melee well with self/trust buffs; You need to be careful, and wipes will happen, but it's not as impossible as you're making it out to be.

Legitimately curious, because I don't follow MMOs anymore, what other games did this and it was successful?

The only one I remember was EQ2, which moved all RMT activity to a single server you couldn't transfer out of. You could move or be transferred in, just not out, and it was tied to their sorry *** attempt at a RMAH.

Over on quetz these have been my drops for alabaster last few weeks over 2 characters

2/4 this week so far
4/10 last week
5/10 2 weeks ago
4/8 3 weeks ago
4/10 4 weeks ago
sadly didn't record the matters before that.

My earrings are now rank 10 and 15

I will also note over that time if I separate the 5k chests from 3k chests the 5k chests had a matter drops 15/18 times and 3k chests had matter drops 4/24 times.

Price will go up on all of them to the point that it's worth listing some and buying some others to make sets. (Because there will be people listing some and buying some others to make sets.)

Biggest miss in sortie in my opinion is the mobs serve no purpose other then to get in the way I'm not saying that it should be empty halls but realistically they may as well be the trash mobs don't need to give an exorbitant amount of muffins but I don't think it would be unreasonable to make it worthwhile to maybe just go in clear fodder for a reasonable amount of muffins. The event as it stands is hurt badly by an overly large zone with very specific objectives required to "optimize" the time limit you have

Has this been updated since the discussion over widescan in places you can't?

Does it still use widescan?

And has it been made clear?

I'd like to start using this again as well as see the whereisnm site start working again but it's kinda come to a dead stop because there hasn't been much communication.

Yea, if it wasn't implied I meant one item that works for any job.

Or just let you trade 3 matching shards for another shard. Then you're no longer throwing out the 10k pup shards, a minimum price is established and it's a whole lot lower than current prices for the pieces worth making. Only downside is that the ultra cheap pieces[that aren't worth making anyway] move toward somewhat cheap.

I'd laugh if we're overthinking trove and literally all they add is Malignance Box to it. No other change(s)

I would have to imagine that, unless they want to literally just say "well, we're locking down busy servers now, we can triple the potential congestion in Dynamis", solo entry would probably have to work like original-recipe Dynamis does now: One zone, no instances, for each area. You can go in alone, but you share with everyone else. No statues because fighting a squad of mobs will floor nearly anybody counting on trusts with no actual players to support them.

Of course, doing that would be a non-zero amount of work, so expect "you can enter and immediately exit for the +2 unlock, and then if you take three steps you will die." Theoretically fine for congestion, who cares if somebody goes in solo if they only hold the instance for three minutes. In practice though, nothing would stop anybody from going in and just sitting at the entrance until they time out. Wonder how many characters it would take to blockade a zone so you could demand a fee to enter.

If they actually cared to fix availability of relic+2/3, they could add an EX item that replaces the xshard/voidx pieces that drops from the solo version. Leaves economy mostly untouched, allows players a path to upgrade. Just giving them the clear doesn't really do much if they still have to dump buckets of gil into the AH to make anything.

I don't expect them to do it. Just thinking out loud.

If we are going to get chipped we will be the powersource.

After all we run at over 98f. That heat can get tapped without even invoking the matrix.

Server: Asura
Floor: NE #4
Location: Where you zone in.

I have draw distance to its default settings and it happened to me in temenos as well. Also it was pretty random and happened to me like three or four times, if it were tied to a setting it would happen every time I think, no?
I guess °_°

Well, it leads into fixing this small issue
So id like to assumecope that they'll take those few minutes to make it work as a solo zone since it helps their current content long term

IDK if putting an actual computer in your ear is any better.

I'm assuming its a gimped down version of just w1, just there to allow players to get their unlocks and nothing else

Leaving aside the issue of limbus' quality, I think the issue is that right now some players won't even think about touching temenos because thanks to dyna-d, they don't even have relic +2, much less +3 ready to upgrade to +4 in limbus. Allowing solo entry obviously opens things up for +2s. I don't know if they plan any adjustments to the statues for solo, but if you can't solo it, they did already add the ability to farm regular wave 1 mobs to unlock +3 access.

I'm guessing the aman trove adjustments will drop shards to noise, creating a large amount of them so anyone can +2 without much issue, and drop voidshards to thuds. I don't know if they'll remove them from loud thuds, but I'd hope so. The new items could just be CoD htbf drops, though they could be adding new exclusive aman drops too. Those would end up in the loud thud pool, I imagine.
