Anyone bring up the fact 75 bosses only spawn every 72 hours, and if a lvl 60/60 any class gets close to them its wipe. Yeah Runewaker pretty much ruined the only thing I was looking forward to.

Agreed. I was so excited by the 60/660 M/P elite, then utter disappointment that the req. is impossible. 75 worldbosses, annelia, VN... yeah, maybe by ch 7... or 8...

Based on this thread I am wondering why are level 75 boss even involved in level 60 elites?

Quoted from "Ravesden;571663"

You indeed "use" the Beacon of Courage on the bosses' dead body. You get 1 Proof of Bravery per boss body. 1 use puts the Beacon of Courage on a 1 hour cooldown.


Am cynical enough to see people looting the boss as fast as possible so the body disppears before the person who has the quest to use the item. I am still not clear on whether the person has to be part of the party/raid or if they can stand way back and try to get to the body in time after the fight has finished.

Had started the flower process with my p/w but with that elite I am thinking I would be better selling the gel on ah than bothering with the elite. Was looking forward to the m/p elite in 2 1/2 months but the more I read here the more I think why even bother with him. I did the 50 elites the old way on 2 char and was hoping to never see that process again.

No.

COMPLETELY disregard my long Fan-like post that had the annelia/vn crap in it. Thats a different item id that is not even relevant anymore, nor is it implemented.

Kill lvl 75 world bosses, use item on their body, 1 hr cd on item. Turn in with the quest you got from the OS guy, and you have your elite. NO annelia/vn/bolynthia or any of that needed. Just lvl 75 world bosses. In fact, im going to delete that previous post, since it was misinformed and incorrect.

On a side note: Reni first lvl 60 elite! *flex epeen* Advice for other druids: Get yourself either a damn good tank, or a high recon (I have an 8 and a 7, not enough at start of fight to keep boss/adds from attacking me). Because that shiznats OP. About damn time and very much deserved elite for d/s. Waited 2+ years, and it paid off.

Awesome, thanks for the info. Was just going by what I read. Guess I'll have to push to get ppl up to do this. Nothing I'll like better than to be an OP D/S :D Oh and I have 2 Recon X's :D

Level 75 bosses still don't make sense for level 60 elites. Especially when you add in the rewards the bosses give, which will only make these bosses harder to get since people will be camping them. I could see doing the normal level bosses for the 60/60 (at least, before the 3 day respawn >.>), but 75? Really? Bosses that only very geared guilds can take down? Runewaker's sense of logic is astounding.

Sure, great, it's awesome for people who are already endgame and in endgame guilds that can tackle these bosses easily. Where does that leave the 90% of the playerbase that isn't geared enough to kill said bosses, especially 15 levels below them?

Elites past 50 should not be something only endgamers can attain, and considering how long it takes to grind up second and third classes without Daily Quest Tickets, it shouldn't be anywhere near as hard as the 50/50 was. While the old 50/50 was definitely a boring grind, this is just plain not doable for the majority of players.

This honestly was one of the things I was really excited about when I came back. It's sad to see how badly it was implemented.

As disappointed as I am in the implementation of this, farming the dead body of a level 75 world boss is better than being pulled on a GCH run. With the supposedly incorrect version of the item, it may take several runs to get the necessary drops. It sounds like using the item to harvest a world bosses body is a guaranteed success.

I can see the world shouts now: "WTB dead body of level 75 world boss. Paying 10 mil."

Its easy for the OPs of Reni to talk about 75 bosses, they had a glitch where dailies reset constantly, the amount of AT charges and CS items is ridiculous. If all of our servers had this we would all be running around with T11 weapons and T7-8 gear. Its easy to win when you can get thousands of tokens a day.

Do you have to be in party? Could just hang around and wait till they kill it... then run up and get your elite items. Even a lvl 60 could do that =p

So, you have to be a part of a group to kill a LVL 75 ELITE WORLDBOSS to get a LVL 60 ELITE SKILL.

This is the type of thing that motivates players to call for developers to be strung up in town square.

Lets just say Id really like to meet the brain genius who thought this would be a good idea.

Is the point of the LVL 60 elite skills to have them be completely unattainable to casual players?

I mean, this isnt the first year this game has been out. Complete BS busywork/nonsense hassle to obtain the elite skills was tried at LVL 50, and was a complete and utter disaster. Do the developers of this game have alzheimers or are they asleep at the wheel? If not, offer me a better explanation as to why so much bother has to go into getting a LVL 60 skill?

I have t6 gear and a t10 weapon like most of the peopel on the server...or in the game. We have a few people with t11 weapons because they abused a glitch, yes. But its like 2 people on the server who dont EVER run anything, dont do sw, they log on, chill afk, and then log off >.>. What a waste of resources :-\.

So sorry, no. I think we might have actually been the LAST server to down the world bosses. We just keep pushing and trying and keep chugging along until we get what we want.

That aside, yes. Getting the 60 elites via world bosses is dumb, but thats how the 50 elites kind of were too. Most people dident pick up the 50 elites before old bag quests because the amount of TIME it took to get them vs what they were was useless. Same for 60. It takes forever to get them, and they arnt all that great except for a few of them.

Just think of it as the developers ultra clever plan to get the community of each server to work together in obtaining these super de derp elites. Well, some of the elites have been reported to be effective, such as the D/S elite when used turns you into an unwilling tank ;).

In all seriousness, don't let these colorful intricacies put in place by these dynamic game developers put a damper on your gaming experience. Coordinate with those mean and ruthless end game guilds on your server to get your elites. I am sure they will gladly let you know when they are downing these glitchy world bosses, so you lower geared players can tag along and obtain your Proof's. Then afterwards they will war your guild, RAWR!!!

I think you're underestimating the number of people who abused that glitch, there were more than a handful of people who abused the rune duping and you actually had to use a cheating program to do that one.

Nevermind the fact that even if you didn't directly abuse it, if you bought your tier stones off the AH during the time when the glitch was happening (for much cheaper than other servers) you were indirectly abusing it.

Why is it when a thread that stays on topic always gets the 1 QQ and derails the whole thing? Its almost pointless to try and make this info public if you guys are seriously going to QQ about the Reni daily glitch. How is that even relevant to lvl 60 elites?

t10 is the norm on Reni. Very few have t11s, and even less (I can think of..2) have t12's. I t6 my gear. I have 2 t7's - chest and boots. How did I get them t7? A good friend/guildie let me use his puri stones out of his (many) 8 pack puri packs.

Reni isn't OP. In Clockwork we have maybe...5? People I'd consider "OP" for anything. Rest of us are average mid gamers and your run of the mill end gamer. Stay on topic, grow up, and less QQ, please.

So hows the weather in fantasyland today?

You're talking about the same 'endgamers' who see a mid to low-level guild grouped up readying to take on a worldboss, then jump in the middle and solo it just for the lulz? Yea...

Your vision is not realistic as endgame guilds not gonna hold off killing the world bosses till the cashshop customers are home from work. Simple fact based on past observations.

Ill admit most people have more tp on Reni than any other server, but thats about it.

I know who Ebi's referencing and it's neither you or Darwec's guild if that makes you feel better, but I think either way it was sort of unfair to the rest of the servers, but back on topic.

Maybe someone should condense the information in these posts and make a topic in the guide section?
