Thread: Guide to Disaster raids for new players

Phaleg has been out for a few days, updated the post with her.

Phul has been up for a few weeks, and still no post about her. Why? Because I can't get a grip on her. She feels easy to me (not solo easy, but "bring me bodies to debuff the bitch and I'll AAB the rest" easy). But everyone keeps complaining about how hard she is. I waited for the rush to calm down to see if things would change, but no, I still feel the same. I'll make a post about Phul once I feel more confident about her.


Also, I'd love to make a big list about the x-mas nerfs and changes, but it's a difficult list to make since we don't get patch notes.

That's the thing with Phul, only the first rage phase is hard, everything else is relatively unremarkable. If you can get a critical mass of ppl to push through first rage or even better, have ppl willing to sacrifice their own dmg to do rage bar cutting duty during first rage, the rest is AAB easy including subsequent rage phases. If not, you're in for a world of pain if you fight her at or near full rage, even if you fully debuff her atk. So yeah, ppl's experience with Phul is very dependent on what raiding party (or lack of) they raid with.

Yeah, that's how it feels to me. If you have a committed group to help you get the debuffs to actually land, she'll burn. But when it's just me hosting, and I need to get the bar down a little before anybody else will join, seeing the debuff resistance down fail means I'll be lucky to get 10% def down out of the ~60% I drop on her, which means I'll not be taking 10% of her health, which means I'll be lucky to find anybody else to join.

But, when that debuff resistance down does hit, she snowballs out pretty quickly.

Water Guard is up!

Seems like they messed it up tho, now game under maintenance again. That thing hit me with goddam awfully a lot aoe attack on first turn (something like 40k dmg for each char), that's insane/ Don't remember exactly was it in rage or not tho. Insane anyway.

they already fixed it, killable now

Good to hear

Oh hey, I haven't updated this in a while. I haven't really had the time. I put Ophiel and Phul in now.

Och is out, and is entirely impossible to fight right now. Basically the raid instantly hits 25 people and then you get "server error" spam aaaaand... well, literally unplayable. Not even kidding, the only time I've taken more than one turn against Och is when I hosted my own. This probably won't last though, because...
OCH ISN'T WORTH YOUR TIME.
Yeah, there. I said it! People are going to realize this sooner or later.
Don't. Fucking. Join. Och. Raids.

Why? Because, unless you MVP or Vice, you get... nothing. Absolutely nothing. The Page droprate is the exact same as leeching Guardians/Rags, WITHOUT the 50% chance of Treasure/Magna. It is a complete waste of your time and you're better off joining ANY other raid than Och! Man, I thought the purple chest update was there to discourage people from leeching with their disgusting Dartagnan teams, but nope. Turns out, that system is designed to make Och more attractive.

So yeah. Once people realize this, nobody is going to join Och raids anymore. I mean, once MVP is no longer physically possible (like say 33% HP lost)... ... why would you join Och? Just go leech something else. Literally anything else. There is ZERO benefit for helping others get THEIR rewards from Och.
What a fucking joke.
