Raid content.

[@steria]

Not only do you ignore new outdoor ikisith content, you also ignore oldworld content on your tier, like PoFrost. It really boils down to man up, know your options, and USE them.

We do actively raid Frost and it is a fun zone, but like it was mentioned before, with as many guilds as there is tracking along side of us its dead/taken. I know last week Anguish started raiding it, so thats another guild to compete with for a viable target.

Now i will admit that their is a 95% percent chance that when you zone into PoFrost the Orater will be up. We havent killed him and other guilds dont touch him for a reason. I will give you guys a response that you can use: "These retarded fuckers are so lazy and lying to us, i see orator of frost up every night and they say they have no targets! whiney bitches all of them!" Im just poking fun of course.

Im glad to see other people coming out and expressing their feelings on iksith, i knew i was not the only one. Make getting the gate neck in the murk easier (you dont have to shorten any of the other quests.. just make getting there not as painful as it is now) and you will have people flocking over there. When i /ooc for starting a group in iksith (pick ups, not guild groups) most people grumble and decide they will hold out for another one. The thought of running from STarhyl, Oasis, NTarhyl, Prophets Landing, The Murk, Field of Bone, then finally reaching Kaesora is to much when you can port to EF and are one zone away from EC with is basically the same Exp. If people could neck to the Murk without doing a 200hr+ chain of quests then you would get A LOT (a shit ton!) more people in there. If you could get the neck after 10 - 15 hours of stumbling around that would be a win for everyone. Keep the quest chain at 200hr+, thats fine, people will do it if they could log on click over grind out a hour or 2 then log off when RL calls.

But hey, i will probably be flamed about that since you can just bind there and carry a lot of gate potions with you, then all you would have to do is gate to some other meeting spot when you want to sell/bank/buff.

That sweet gate is a pita to get. But once I get it I will be set. The next goal is to get the rest of my guild to get that. I think right now only one guy has it. Right now, I have a strong love/hate relationship with the quests. They are pretty cool, but when will it ever end?

I do have a question. We have not seriously attempted to raid Ikisith. From my perspective I think it is gonna take forever to get everyone there. How long does it realistically take a raid force to gather at a raid target, if everyone is not bound in Ikisith?

This 10x!

Iksith is cool but getting there is a bitch...now that I finally got my Athica neck I went and bound in remnants so I woulnd't have to spend 15 minutes running there. Seriously, make it less of a pain in the ass to get to and more people will go there.

 

[fuwok]

You can bind in Ntarhyl. And the run from the vah neck to prophets takes like, 5 minutes.

make a port there...? maybe even 2 like every other zone set up in the game. Make it 65 and rarish w/ druid and wiz on it and ikisith would be used more.

Hell maybe even an MOP although there would have to be some flag on the char that said yes/no you can enter.

For common exp (most of these zones are quick runs too):
HHK mop/1 zone
cmal mop/1 zone
EC port/1zone
fg/rsp port/1 zone
FR port 2 zones
SG/DN mop or port/1 zone
Elds port/2 zones

Ikisith minimum: port/3 zones (generally 5-6)

20min of lost time vs 5 min largely deters people from going there. Also, the plat/xp isn't really better in ikisith so effectively you lose 15 min xp for no real benefit besides doing new retarded long quests or trying to get new tomes w/o having to buy em. Sure 15 min isn't much, but wipe once and you've lost a half hour. Not to mention, while its not huge, buff timers are ticking.

Now conciser going there every day for a couple weeks, thats hours lost. Personally, once I get my spells done(not even sure why im bothering as they are mediocre) I don't intend to return except for raiding.

There were supposed to be port spells when you earned the murk/dl port items... have no wizards/druids earned these items yet or are they just not in?

 

[Kazimir]

I wouldn't waste an ikisith spell on it the way I wouldn't have wasted a pet rune on it. Some spells are just missing and need added.

SWEET lets do a long ass quest not being able to get there easily so that we can go back.

Retarded concept is retarded.

 

[Cyzaine]

That doesn't answer the question, and isn't constructive. And I'm getting pretty sick of this attitude outside of chillville. Consider this a warning for everyone in this particular forum.

Rovan has the gate clicky. But his druid is not porting anyone. I will ask him directly, but I don't think it is in. It would help a lot. Otherwise I suppose it is just incentive for everyone to work their murk faction in order to get the gate quest.

I have the shield, I didn't get any spells though. EDIT: Nor a port/gateneck to dreadlands or anywhere else in ikisith.

 

[Manguadi]

The dragon is the only tier 9ish outdoor raid in ikisith. Everything else is meant for people doing IP and below, all the way down to plane of torment difficulty fights.

Come play video games with us. Ikisith is very boring with no competition. Yclist is a tier 9 zone, meant to have mobs by and large as hard as farhags/generals.

Well then, we'll have to fix this.

Wrong, there are at least two tier 8ish fights on Ikisith that are easily accessible.

 

[Ssiraz]

Well then, we'll have to fix this.

Just curious if there are supposed to be spells for all spell casting classes during certain quest lines? So far Mage, and now these port spells are the only ones I have heard of.

If so can you check and make sure they are also being rewarded?

 

[Thade]

Well then, we'll have to fix this.

We as a guild have finished most of the quests, and the only things we got were low tier loot, and the mage armor spell.

 

[Rovans]

I have not aswell (druid)

 

[vistachiri]

The ports must be broken(I also was not aware there were ports, if there is a druid one, no I did not receive it, and have the gate item).

Also, if there were supposed to be rewards for lamplighter, no one got those. The only spell that has been seen by anyone to date is the mage one, not entirely sure any of the other 3 or so active mages have done it.

If it helps to determine exactly what is missing, the only 2 quests that remain incomplete (other than the tradeskill ones) are the headman's quest, and the crazy dictionary one, in the former because the piece after was nowhere to be found after wholesale slaughter for many days, by many more people than just me, , and ambiguity in the latter.

Also I haven't heard of anyone getting a dl port item at all. Pretty sure someone would have mentioned that.

Firstly, to address the fact that you want more raid content for casual people , if for some insane stupid reason staff decides to put in another zone, what makes you think that it will not be just as contested as other content.

To address the whole Ikisith raid mob thing. It's really not as bad as people are making it out to be. The guy in Field of Bone by Kaesora is honestly probably a t4-5 fight at most. Take a few hours and go explore some shit (I made Prestige try and kill the t10 dragon ,and yeah we got faceraped in 2 seconds but hey, now we know).

This game is not hard, it just takes investment of time, if you don't have the time to invest then you will not get as far as others. If you want a target to raid every day as soon as you log on, go find a different game, this one is fine as is.
