Tower and Us

Ok, i thought that only the key was enough to enter in the tower but looks like SoE decided to f* it again and we need the key PLUS the three Korafax raids (Pallorax, VL and Mindsear).

So we going to focus on Mindshear and need everyone show up to raid, especially those that already have a key. All that you need is the kill so be there please because the key is useless if you dont have the 3 raids completed.

Edit: Yes. we already checked that :p

I'm tired and going to bed, but I don't think all those statements you made are quite correct.

They Might be, hehe. I havent researched any guides on How to Enter Tower, but I have some thoughts/ideas that your test tonite probably didn't account for.

Either way tho, Mindshear should be a target, but AH gonna need full raids; the less boxes the better, etc, in order to win.

Another thing to note: As the raids go higher and the expansions go further, DPS becomes more and more important. At some point, and maybe it's already happened to a small extent, that's going to be a deciding factor in AH's success.

Eh, me sleepy . . .

Thursday providing good numbers Mindshear will be the target I am going for. Seen it won multiple times by my bro so i know the strat needed. Now from what i understand is you need all 3 targets killed to request tower, but not all 3 to enter just the key. And for people to get 85% into tower not sure if they need the raids or enough people will all the raids done, either way we should have focused on Mindshear more anyway as the loots are some of best we can get.

Thursday tho, be ready for a win

And THAT is what Im talking about . . .
Sendalor gives more details as in Requesting vs. Entering.
My mage with Zero Korafax kills has entered Tower several times.
However, in order to piggy inside, does the raid have to have large amounts of peep who Have completed the Kora raid kills? That is possible, and therefore AH will need to get Mindshear kills done. If all you need is one completely flagged person, then Mindshear is still a good target, but not necessary at all.

Winning Mindshear will require practice. Maybe I'm just practical, but I won't predict a win for Thursday, tho with a full 54-person raid, it could happen:)

As far as dps goes, I was really referring to Raid dps, not individual toons.
We are able to squeak by on Pallorax with 12-13 tanks in a raid of 36, but Tower? No way! Mindshear? Not gonna work unless the raid is full with a solid 12+ DPS classes present.

Like i said: We already checked this, nobody only with a key was able to enter the tower, in all cases they were boted to zone line period. Also:

Well I complained a bit on the thread. Rasper even changed his page now to read Requirements- Tower Key and 3 Korafax events.

If doing Mindshear every week is what we need to make this happen, then that is what we do.

So what happens when we get flagged for tower?

We will be missing a large part of our high end raiders seeing as I dont think ROV will be allowed to participate in AH tower raids.

Since we will not be able to use the guild banner trick to move through tower that means we will need to clear all the trash as well, yay. Tower for Ah will be nothing like tower for other guilds you can bet on that.

Still should be fun if we can ever beat the damn mindshear event. It seemed to go smoother the first time last night but was still chaotic.

Trash in tower is very special like some ppl already saw the other day. fortunately they are linked to events and our schedule should be something like this:

Day 1. Event 1, Clear trash for Event 2, Event 2
Day 2. Event 3, clear trash to Event 4, Event 4
Day 3. Clear to Event 5, Event 5, Minis
Day 4. Event 6, Event 7

Once mastered can be narrowed to 2-3 days.

i noticed when trash mobs die they explode and create a big AE Mad

may want casters to lag behind a bit so they dont take as much damage
