BioIce Posted April 11, 2009 Author Share Posted April 11, 2009 To-do list: 1.) More specific positions and tricks for each altar without ever using the repel wand. 2.) Show the off-center scoring basics. (Priority!) 3.) Group the basics into one 'hidden' section. Divide the altars into their own individual sections. 4.) Some ideal team positions depending on the number of teammates while having randoms and fruitcakes. 5.) A few ways to get around barriers. :shock: (Not sure if I should include the use of the repel wand.) 6.) High detail and low detail graphics setup. (Might not include.) 7.) Change topic title to: Great Orb Project - The Attract Wand. :wall: 8.) Free up time from busy schedule in order to flesh out the guide. :ohnoes: :ohnoes: :ohnoes: Prepare to Die!

foursideking Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Nice Guide! I might finally finish that goal of full green Runecrafter robes... :-k i agree with everyone here...for a while i had trouble with the minigame...wish i had this guide before i found out those tricks...lol....yeah...only one main flaw that i saw was that if your on the air altar lvl...it'd be easier to just stand in the middles of the sides of the altar and attract orbs from the opposite end, switching spots if necessary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BioIce Posted July 13, 2009 Author Share Posted July 13, 2009 edit; it is also a good idea to explain why the 4 cardinal directions are the best. If you wanted to be sharp you could take a pic of an altar in low def mode then fill in the squares where you can 1 click an orb, by standing in NEWS. Then do the same as if you were standing off set. Hai hai Oooh, good point. Hmm, I should get on it. *adds to coming soon list* *sneaks away* Prepare to Die!

Wongtong Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 Great guide. One thing that's confusing is where south/north etc directions are because you don't have a north arrow or anything and your picture has been tilted. edit: and another is that it's hard to locate what you're talking about in the picture (try using a bolder colour or circling things) 8,180WONGTONG IS THE BEST AND IS MORE SUPERIOR THAN ME#1 Wongtong stalker.Im looking for some No Limit soldiers!

The bolder color thing is a good idea, I'll do it when I get photoshop on this computer again. *scribbles these down in notes* Nice guide. By the way... What site did you use to put your pictures on?

Cup Lion Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Barriers only prove problematic for the most part on large altars like Earth and Mind. And usually, on those altars, the player is repelling to the altar. So, it may be difficult to get much out of maneuvering around barriers with an attract wand, while avoiding the repeller wand. I'd love to see an expansion to encompass the repeller wand. |Signature by Jason321| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to see an expansion to encompass the repeller wand. All I can really say about the repel wand is that its a bit like football. The English one, the one ppl call soccer. :lol: Though its fidgety to push the orb and walk after it, cant exactly run with the orb unless you got excellent click reflexes. *cough* Puu4 *cough* The repel tricks are altar specific and arent universal like the basic attract tricks, if you get what I mean. Adding a repel guide would be really image heavy. Prepare to Die! Path of Exile RPG "Think where man's glory most begins and ends, and say my glory was I had such friends."

Cup Lion Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 I'd have to agree with your last statement, and I know what you mean. Honestly, half the fun is figuring things out for yourself. |Signature by Jason321| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iunno tho, I log in at a different time, itll be hard to catch each other, but hopefully :lol: My teacher, right there. Our max on dual air is 40 so far, lol. Anyways, I'd like to play with you too! : Oooh, he took in a student? I wont hyt-snipe you when I see you btw. Im going to try and rework the images with a grid-mapped altar to make it easier to see where to stand and where the orbs should be. The topdown view is sorta slanted though so itll be hard to get right. I dont think Ill be able to make one for low detail, the screen is too puny and ive only played low a couple of times.

Cup Lion Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 Must have taken you a while to do all of that. It does map out exactly where the orb is, and direction, which should be helpful. A combination of your explanations in your Tricks section and the pictures in your Pathfinder section should make things much easier. |Signature by Jason321| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cup Lion Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 I've been thinking. Maybe the inexperienced players get the wrong idea when, in this instance (yellow orb trapped): Their orb is pulled in while they are still holding it, but not because of them, but because someone stole it from them. It may confuse them into thinking such a position will bring their orb in. I like this guide because it emphasizes what the correct positions are. If only more people looked at it. |Signature by Jason321| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like this guide because it emphasizes what the correct positions are. If only more people looked at it. You have a point about the stolen orbs. Should I bother putting up 'individual' failures of orb scoring with only the scorer and no one else, and the image having a huge X on it? :o Prepare to Die!

Sir_Kurity Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 :3 I not going to put up the hyt-sniped pic. :shock: I think single person failures would be a great idea =D. Some people seem to think if they click on the orb, it will automatically come to the altar regardless of obstacles -.- O.O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
