Daemonheim Task Set- 10/9/13

[Quyneax]

@Matey: On hard mode, you can probably solo a hex, bn, hood and a full set of t11 equipment before you've done a few levels worth of xp.

[cowmaster187]

well i have soloed the hex and bn in like 200k xp lol

[Matey]

Anyone else struggling with the memory probing for Nasir saga?

The sound is supposed to be helpful.. but well... It's not.

It was an addressed problem that never got fixed. Your best bet is to watch the tempo of the fading cursor.

Yay, and if that's off (there's no reference for comparison) I can sit through a 5 minute cutscene all over again?

 

If it was a known issue it'd have been common sense to fix it along with Daemonheim task release...

Given it's the only task I need I may just get 98 diviniation first and then try and suffer through it.

I don't see what peoples issue with the Nadir memory thing is all 3 times I've played through it the sound and cursor worked just fine with a slow pulse progressing to a fast pulse in the general area and a tiny area of insane heart attack pulsing where u need to click

The sound for the pulse is very minute and even using headphones I couldn't hear it.

[Quyneax]

I had no trouble hearing it except over the wind that's outside, for the first memory probe.

 

You can lobby and exit the saga if you get it wrong, that returns you to the nearest save point - speak to Skaldrun to start again. Not useful for the first probe, but the second and third are past save points.

[Ambler]

Kind of dissapointed by the tasks, they didn't seem that difficult, considering most are either RNG based, or can be potted up to with the strong potions, I just need to do sagas/sinkholes/quest for the crab things now, and I'll have them done.

Rewards are okay though I guess.

[Sy_Accursed]

Hard mode is totally trolling me, been working through frozens on solo bit by bit since finally clearing the ring req on tasks.

 

Had like 20 Edimmu's with no BN so far, I know it's still a reasonably rare drop, but seeing like 5 Edimmu's in 1 frozen floor and 4/5 of them dropping nothing is a bit -.- GRKJEGBJEJKSNJDS inducing.

83 Dry gazers, when hex was actually good.

 

These feels. I feels them with you.

[Sy_Accursed]

I shouldn't complain really my pre-hard mode mostly solo record of the drops ppl like is a bit cray cray (and this is all since 99)

 

Primal hatchet

Primal Pick

Primal legs x3

Primal chain x2 (not ideal but meh still decent-ish)

Celestial catalytic staff x 4

Celestial robe top x 3

Robe bottom x 3

Sagi chaps x 1

Sagi body x 2

Sagi short x 3

 

Plus a whole stack of like kites and knives and warhammers and blah blah blah that I didn't bother registering to memory.

How did you do this

Too much solo xp.

Turn off the music and put the sound effects on max. Even then it can be a pain in the ass to hear, but if you listen closely you can hear a faint "EEE-EEE-EEE" ringing.

 

By the way, are hexes "fixed" yet? I got one and bound it over my sagittarian shortbow that I can't use - I have 98 range conveniently enough, but I have sag armor bound too so I won't be ranging until 99 anyway. I mean, for being so rare you'd expect them to be at least a bit better, despite being one level lower.

[strilmus]

while i was annoyed at having to replay a saga in order for the game to actually acknowledge that i had cleared them all, it was fun to experience thok's rage again, which apparently classify his fists as a two handed weapon rather than dual wielding

 

probably don't want to think about what he does when he uses the bleeding stab with his fingers

Are you ranging or maging them? I've noticed bows at least an sometimes magic seem glitched and you only get the drops sometimes when using them. I don't know if its a glitch with the tag system or what. Same happens with bosses.

So that's what it is? sometimes see the tagging on the enemy disappear but I can still fight them.. and then they drop nothing...

The idea that its a flaw with the tag system is just a guess because it started happening when tag system came out. Only thing I know for sure is that sometimes mage or range will get you no drop from bosses or regular monsters

[Platinum_Myr]

This seems correct. I've been using melee recently and getting drops, but when I used range/mage I didn't get drops consistently. It feels like the tag system because I believe it occurs after the creature's overlight interface disappears (showing their health, active abilities, and such).

 

Not really sure how to report the bug though.

[Sy_Accursed]

Can't say I've encountered any issue in regards to attack style and monsters having drops, only a consistent hard mode factor that half the mobs don't drop anything which I assumed to be part of making it hard through scarcer resources.

[HunterDexter]

Yeah, is it normal to not get a single food item through a hard dungeon? Aside from the starting room, of course.

[Sy_Accursed]

In my experience so far I've found monsters in the first 2 or 3 rooms in any given route from the start room usually drop some food, but beyond that have seen very little in the way of food drops other than a rare random low fish here and there in drop piles.

[Platinum_Myr]

dropped food in hard mode is incredibly rare. However, as far as I know bosses aren't supposed to have no drop item at all, and that happened quite a few times while I was doing ranged.
