B/O on Q10 Celestial Compass [Illusion]

Oh, whoops. IGN Akinom Tsarnaev

I'm probably going to stick with Vaettirs, even though I can't get the 50 pt consumables from them. I've done testing with both this past week, and I can be pretty inconsistent with Raptors, i.e. sometimes I don't kill Rekoff. With Vaettirs, I can be rather lazy.

So if this happens are you going to place a LGiT flag on embark and claim it was the LGiT alliance that made everyone move? I knew this was a LGiT idea as soon as I read the title.

P.S., I didn't say it enough, so LGiT.

The game was updated again so toolbox (along with bots) is broken.

Hey guys,

As I'm sure you know, bosses can drop the 50 pt consumables during the anniversary celebration. They sell for quite a decent amount given what they are. With that said, I'm curious if farming raptors would be much more profitable than farming vaettirs for this event? I've never farmed for the three 50 pt items before, so I don't know what the drop rate is like. If there's a noticeable drop rate, then I have no problem rolling a warrior and getting it to Rata before the 22nd.

Regards

Wow, i think i remember noone who finished unlucky title before the luck one. You must have been very unlucky with chests

Like mentioned above, I've probably only messed with 9 rings for maybe a max of 5 hours total. I was r3 unlucky and r1 lucky a few months ago so I didn't start until then. I've strictly done Pongmei Valley (HM) because I've found it gives much more chests per hour than the Boreal runs. I need about 1k more chests to max Treasure, and then I'm swapping to NM. I'm hoping (but not expecting) to get Treasure maxed before the double points week gets here.

I did a thing! Saving up my energy (and money) for the double points week coming up to knock out the last 1.4m lucky points. Maybe within a year, lol.

Bump!

I finally maxed the Wisdom title as part of my 4 title goal! The other three are lucky, unlucky, and treasure hunter. I'm 120k away from unlucky, about 1.7 million away from max lucky, and I need about 3500 more chests. I've done all of my chests in pongmei, but I have no good echovald shield to show for it..

I would love to do a play through of UW, as I've never done anything past farming the Aatxe's at the beginning. American evenings, EST time zone.

Bump!

It has caster mods. TIA for any input one can provide on its price.

I recently used over 10,000 zkeys and I never got an eternal blade or crystalline sword drop. I did, however, get 4 voltaic spear drops - 2 q9, 1 q10, and a q13. The odds of you getting it from the zchest is probably insanely low, and in the end you would probably be better off just buying one from a person.

Bump..

I still need around 2.6k more golds to max my title. Looking to pay 1e per 7.

Also: was this setup made with the expectation that cons would be used? I have enough ectos saved up to buy 2 stacks of sets, but don't really want to if it isn't going to change much. I struggled pretty badly on gate of pain hm with the heroes earlier, turns out learning how to pull after Leeroying a gigantic mob 3 times in a row is a good thing.

Hello Janthir,

Its spot on that there is no hex removal simply because 95% of the hexes arent really life threatening.
The only hexes that would really comprise the teams safety are :
Panic (biggest killer, However unflagged hits your entire team so even 3 hex removals wont suffice, Just sit it out or its immediate death really)

Visions of Regret, could hurt decently.

Backfire, which is kind of neglectable.

Mistrust, which is almost impossible to remove because they will cast though it if they want to interrupt something at nearly the speed of light.

Panic is the only real threat that could whipe this team, but generally any caster based team would suffer tremendously from it.

Zephyr,

I'd like to apologize for sounding so abrasive in my original post. If you can't tell, I took quite the break from GW for the umpteenth time, but I've considered trying this build again, and I must say.. out of the over 150 months I've owned my account, using this setup is almost as exciting to me as getting my first ever celestial mini drop from lunar fortunes. Im using a slightly different version that has two ER eles, that also have mesmer skills- bringing my mesmer count to 5. It's just as fun watching enemies not being able to use any skill as actually killing them. I'm not much of an elite area type player, so my experiences reside completely with missions and explorable areas. You've done an excellent job with this build.

I've been using this setup for a few things and I find it struggling quite a lot even with normal mode things. I have them fully runed, sup vigs and all that. Where's the hex removal? It's obvious this build relies on interrupts to prevent getting hexed but what about when you get one? I don't find there to be enough heals. I'm using the IV necro, ST rit, ER ele, 2 inept, 1 panic, and 1 esurge. I can run ER on my ele but I shouldn't have to since this is the dps player setup? What's going wrong here? I expected this build to be much more survivable on at least normal mode.
