Title: donate item idea Post by: red2 on January 30, 2014, 05:45:42 pm several people have agreed, they would like something like this. some sort of clicky what would agro/pull 20 mobs. would have to consider what to do about perma rooted mobs ( corals in t5).
Title: Re: donate item idea Post by: ZerarWarrior on January 30, 2014, 07:13:53 pm like the thumper in Dune.... attracts the 20 closest npcs to it. I love the idea. For mobs in locked rooms make then leashed with a mem wipe. Maybe? I would donate for this item for sure. Maybe limit the distance and z axis that it works on... maybe only above sea level on t5... and basements of t4. Could work well indeed. Title: Re: donate item idea Post by: Dimur on January 30, 2014, 08:21:26 pm How much more dumbed down does the game need to be? Seriously, agroing mobs is as easy as hell already and just requires you to run around. Why not just ask for an agro pulse reward clicky and have it autopull the next nearest mob to you 1 agro mob at a time? Then you can sit in one spot and farm a whole zone without having to worry about overpulling and training yourself...sorry if it sounds like I'm just trying to keep all the tedium in the game but honestly, it's really not that hard to clear full zones of mobs by just running around and clicking SoT and targeting next mob, rinse and repeat. I hate backfarming shit as much as anyone, but I'd much rather see the backfarming made less tedious by letting you do something like 1:4 ratio trade ins of higher tier essences to lower tier essences so you could continue to farm relevant stuff that isn't gonna make you fall asleep from the boredom of killing trivial mobs for hours/days on end.
tl;dr --It isn't that hard to agro mobs as it is, just requires not sitting in one spot and adding more donation-only shit to shortcut gameplay isn't going to address the actual problem of farming trivial mobs for rare drops. Title: Re: donate item idea Post by: red2 on January 30, 2014, 10:36:25 pm just food for thought. as i sit here, and pull less than 50 at a time in hoh... which now takes me about 30 min to clear.
maybe another aa thing then? 50k per rank, each rank pulls 1 more mob... Title: Re: donate item idea Post by: Dimur on January 30, 2014, 11:23:13 pm Why clear the zone? Just straight line pull for 10 minutes and repop the zone, if you clear it you end up running down long hallways you already cleared but if you clear straight paths you cut out a lot of unnecessary running.

Title: Re: donate item idea Post by: balidet on January 31, 2014, 01:15:51 pm as stated before NO NO NO NO...
you might as well have hunter bring back the afk game and just play that... lets leave us something to do... would love to see it added to the essence trade in guy where you could turn in 100 CT and get 100 Qvic in return...even if the return ratio was not 100% say 80% people would still do this...would help with some of the back farming...by allowing you to still fight in relevant content but would not remove the difficulty of having to farm 1000000000 essence to get what you want..... I think we can all agree that spending 10000 hours in ct or POD...HOH..and so on... farming essence with one leet t8 toon is pretty damn boring... |
