Implent the skills of antharas .. Noone said to confiscate items or whatever .... Its the same as changing the rates of enchant scrolls did you confiscate all overenchanted items? No but you still made that change. Changing Hekaton Prime respawn/summon ... did you confiscate the farmed BEAS? Did you confiscate the divine crystals from the bugged quest in tanta lizardman? ... noone asking you to confiscate anything ... i just ask you to make things right... Implentation of antharas skills is a must! i dont care who kills it ... i care if about things are working properly! If anyone kills antharas when he is scripted correct they deserve it. Right now i cant say anyone deserves killing antharas. I agree that confiscating items is wrong and i dont ask for that. I just ask for fixing whats wrong. After its working properly noone can say anythung to the ones that kill it! Who agrees with me and approve that this change is a must!
Antharas change!
I would be even tempted to see how this works out! :) OH and btw, isnt anthy supposed to be in random modes: Normal or nightmare, or smtn? With increased rewards in nightmare mode.. I think i saw smtn like that on off.. I might be wrong, never tried the modes anthy there. But for certain, skills are not working.. Also, there's the lag issue.
Well....saying it is easy....u wanna try helping ignis code that skills?as far I as remember.....L2J dun really work very well
Assuming the current lag spikes at anthy even while not boxing anything, it would be most unwise to harden the raid even further. It is good as it is now imo, challenging enough though not impossible if an ally knows what it is doing :)
The anthy spawn is a new pvp opportunity, thus rendering him unfarmable would pretty much destroy a bit of fun this game might offer. In h5 koreans agreed that they've added way to much power to the dragon epics and reduced their stats as well as made their cast speed significantly lower (in fact making it quite possible to cancel those). Clearly, picking freya update we do not want all nice and easy, but in dragon case i do not think powering them up would be a better option :P
kuku - I can offer ignis full AI script of antharas .... if he agrees ofcourse.
Dodger - whats the challenging now in antharas only autoattacks? and switch targets when minion spawn? Or you are afraid that your clan will fail it? If you want a challenge here it is an oppertunity to create one! Antharas/Valakas are the strognest bosses so they have to be hard! it will be unwise because you wont be able to kill it? Or you will be able to kill it but you just dont want to bother putting efforts in it... yeah ofc 2nd option will be better for you dodger .. as you see there is other opinions... and keeping Vanir as close to retail as it can is the best option.
Luthiene yes there is smth like that ... lvl 79 and lvl 85 version of Antharas .. ofc lvl 79 version doesnt drop earring (or at least it was lower chance) .. but i think they added that to H5 .. not shure about this but still ive heard that too .. that there were 2 vesrions of Antharas in some chronicles.
I agree with shamanking. Antharas have skills. All raids have a skills. Or u can remove the skills from Valakas and we will kill him too.
Or you will be able to kill it but you just dont want to bother putting efforts in it...
WE ARE the ones making the effort ....
Damien what efforts you put in? Make quest for buffers and for 1-2-3 hours do autoattacks on Antharas and from time to time change target to kill minions? Wow thats a great effort! ... And we are going out of Topic ... Agree or disagree with implenting Antharas skills ... give opinion and ofc a reason!
My reason and opinion is that u exaggerate ... if you want to have everything like retail ... then u have a great option. Go play on retail. Private servers in opposition to retail where the original game is set up are running a customized set of files and the server is setup in a certain way. By playing on a private server u can expect it's not gonna be 100% retail, it is NOT SUPPOSED to and you shouldn't make all the commotion around discovering something that is plain in sight. And that's my opinion with my reasons.
Yeah, yeah, ignore the major part of the post and pick the line you need to write some BS (BestStrings), a very efficient way to communicate on forums, isn't it?
I don't know about you but I would find it quite challenging to do a quest for ~50 chars(it is can be up to 8 boxes per person) and them control them all during 3-4 hours all a bit laggy and dying all the time. Not to mention the spawn race making sure we get it, all the organization required.
Honestly, if they do implement the skills for anthy, do you really think anyone stands a chance of defeating him? This will just make him unfarmable (the state Valky has now) and no one would come for him, simple as that. You can as well give Ignis the script to delete Anthy's inst, it would barely change a thing.
Ok, if the skills making Antharas unfarmable like Valakas, lets make Valakas farmable also. U know, The mages need necklace of valakas, so lets make all the dragons easyer, not only Antharas. Right now its not fair for the mages... etc
any change of this type results in a need for other modifications in order to maintain balance. Mainframe official has been decided in some way to have balance. If you want here such need to change all things, not just those that serve only part of the characters. The other option is to do it retile like. The buffs are 1h for all charakters, but not all charakters needed the same boss jewels. If you change one raid boss, you need the change all the others to keep the balance...
P.S. I beleave, we can kill the retile like Antharas with 18 active people in this server with this 1 hour biffs. Yeah, will take more thime - 5-6 hours, but its not inposible. So, if we can not find 18 active people for 6 hours to play together, it means the server has already died. Think about it.
