Re: New Assault Area Overview

If the NMs are as "tough as Tough mobs" Im gonna go out on a limb and say the normal enemies are probably pretty easy.

??? ring become a copper ring, ??? bow = light crossbow
???footwearx2 = 1 ash clogs, 1 bronze leggings.

So far, just like SE said, everything is random foremost. Even the same orders for a floor gives different mobs and used a different lay out.

Only mobs that give real difficulty were the puddings. A pld and blm is highly recommended. Given how things went, I highly recommend a standard party of tank, blm, healer, refresh, puller and dd.

Re: New Assault Area Overview

NMs are about tough as Tough mobs, no two hours so far if any.
Also haven't had time to test if we can avoid mobs for the lamp one yet
Lastly, no map of the area, so no widescan

Re: New Assault Area Overview

Also, do you get map so you can widescan when you enter like Salvage?

Re: New Assault Area Overview

Also I was wondering if you could update us on how tough some NM's are, if you get a chance to see one from another part of Vana'diel. As in, are they toned down/up to match the level cap or are they at their real strength?

Gotten to Floor 4 where we failed and gotten kicked
30 min time limit

Floor 1 - Orders: Eliminate the Leader.
Mobs - NM Dire mite and NM Flan. A Warmupacha(sp?) and ercua were present as DC. Leaders would be the NM to activate the Rune of Transference

Floor 3 - Orders: Eleminate the target mob. NM undead dog and a drauger

Floor 4 - Orders: activate all the lamps w/o destroying the Archaic Gears.
We failed there. Gears, ramparts aggroed. There was 2 killing weapons there.
Also all lamps must be activated at the same time. About 3 or 4 lamps
