A 30 man raid is not needed for hippo; would just make it more difficult to manage, as with most of these bosses. Problem is people don't want to think strat but rather want to burn. Think we have a preliminary strat for a few bosses that once we have enough healers and dps on can be implemented and or altered, on Reni. The problem is not a lot of our guild is interested in RoM beyond SW. Even then interest is quickly waning.

Burn or die.

Maybe some strat mixed in there after a few tries :P

Didn't think it'd be worth it, but after reading the thread, looks like I'll have to pull our dps from gw2 and burn some bosses. Don't need a full 36 raid :P

I wish you luck raves , i was in on last nites attempt, the big problem is all the healers being silenced. I couldnt even get of a .6 second urgent heal. I believe a new strat is going to be learned by trial and error. If you need more healers just ask me i will bring my 90 k gh

As far as i read on the forums Wodjin hardmode works just like Wodjin normal ... with all broken mechanics it has, too.....*hinthinthint* (still hits like a truck though :D)

Lagusen and Targonharl hardmode must REALLY be fun. bwahahahaha. Not that good ol' Targonharl wasnt able to wipe the area clean even in normal mode :D

Blind Hackman was disabled because the fight (or the kill , or the wipe of the group? did not read exactly) crashed the zone :D

Drop is reported to be always 15 of those "Proof" things FOR THE ENTIRE RAID which translates to 3 stats every 72h for 6-36 people (per channel). And some guild runes like always.

I wasn't there for the attempts, but yeah, no need for the portal ;)

All the time spent in Hysteria as a noob farming an unburnable (for us) and unbuggable (or so they thought) wodjin might pay off :D

edit: I may or may not have bugged wodjin on Palenque last night ;) Hopefully some noobs didn't come by and reset him -_-

So boss doesn't drop stat directly, and you use the proof shells to exchange for those gear? And where do you exchange it?

Varanas City should have some new NPCs for that. Not ingame atm, will try to find the names via forum.

We just took Hippo down on Indigo.. But the NPC to trade the items too is not in Varanas... So that a FAIL!

NPC is named as "Edward Wilson" and he is (or should be) in varanas central between shell npc's and mailbox next to bank entrance. You can buy some uppers and necklaces from him with 5 proof of legends and some gold.

I do think it's great all 36 people get rewards. Not sure if it's been done on Artemis yet.

It's 1 loot of 15 pieces of 'Proof'.
So 1 person gets all the proof and all other persons in the raid get nothing. :(

What's the point then... Every person in that raid played their part. I really wonder if the devs are just trying to make people quit. Not one thing in this patch seems to work, or it was just poorly planned. Can't blame Gameforge but give us some REAL new content. Only thing worse then bored players are frustrated ones.

15 pieces of proof are 3 really good items.

If people in raid make an agreement who gets the proof and with who he shares the 3 items...

Then we have every 80 hours (3 x 5 worldbosses) 15 new really good items to choose.
Sounds easier and more fun then running ac or tosh at highest difficulty.

Sure BUT let's be real this isn't for the majority of players, this is for your PPKs. We're talking 5% of the player base. They are heading in the wrong direction.

The top 5-10% of the player base you speak of is generally those who buy lots of diamonds or create the demand for buying diamonds. And yes this is a piss poor patch to try to garner more interest in end gamers to continue playing or return to the game. As stated previously, this Warden "fix" took how long to be implemented? It's just laughable and still doesn't address charged chop or aggro issues for wd/w's. Little effort put in for hopes of continued profit. Meh, I can't be too serious about this game; stopped that absurdity a while ago.

All this does is encourage endgame guilds to shut the rest of the playerbase out and spawncamp those bosses for themselves. For bosses that are this hard, they should drop more than the equivalent of 3 stats, considering how many people it may take to bring them down, depending on gear.

I remember when people used to PUG raid hard world bosses. It doesn't happen anymore. Every guild is only out for themselves, and the limited rewards these bosses give will only exacerbate that.

You're in swords of valor and talking about camping world bosses? A bit hypocritical considering your GL used to be parked outside hippo and 2 alts on the other channel for I don't know...6 months maybe?

The fact is this will be camped and controlled by only the OP guilds. It will be impossible for new players to finish these quests.
