AMPs Radiate This will now re-trigger after the cooldown if Players use an ability that generates Kinetic Energy while already at full Energy. Glad for this fix, it will actually make a noticable dent in DPS. I assumed that it was intended behavior for it to re-active again and again if you stayed at max KE, but aparantly it was just dropping off until you let your KE fall below 1000 and hit 1000 again, which didn't happen all that much especially with the sprint AMP disabling KE decay | ||

We’re currently shooting for a release early November Guess it's official now, 3.5 months between drop 2 and drop 3 | ||

i don't think the groups are split great, we lack damage and organization. I raided once with IN before the group split, and we had like 20-30% more damage than nosta - but now we're back to nosta level damage, entering p3 of phagemaw when he has half HP left | ||

This is true, we didnt get crap for pulls. Gloomclaw is doable. We just had to modify our strat a bit. Hardest boss in DataScape right now is the roster boss. | ||

STEP IT UP BRADWAN, or Eugenic is gonna steal these world firsts Pretty sure you guys got the next world first :D | ||

 2nd night of Prototypes progression, got them down to 6% 5-6 of our DPS had died at that point, some of them in the first rotation already. This would've easily been a kill if they don't stand in borer xD This fight feels much easier than Kuralak, but maybe it's because our team is just better than the team we had on the first Kuralak pulls. Hopefully we get to see Phage Maw next week. And yay, 1337 posts, time to stop posting. | ||

This fight feels much easier than Kuralak, but maybe it's because our team is just better than the team we had on the first Kuralak pulls. Kuralak is about strategy and it's one of the easiest fights to just play and not fuck up, literally the only thing to do as DPS is hit one boss that never moves, don't get hit by red and interrupt once in the whole fight, and you're good. Now that the disconnect bugs don't seem to happen, it seems way easier than phagemaw/prototypes IMO, not even close. The problem with Kuralak is just that a few people failing makes it 100x harder to organize and play with nobody else failing if you don't have a lot of DPS, but if you just walk in, everyone hits the interrupts and boss dies then it's actually a very fast and uneventful fight prototypes has 1000x more random decisions and reactions for stuff like the chain on first boss that can kill you if he chains you to a nearby person who is slow at reacting even if you play properly, which is annoying, many targets, constantly worrying about positioning etc and random stuff like color room (which people fail at least 2-3 times out of 10 in my experience of about 40 wipes on the fight with 2 guilds) and singularity to mix things up Phagemaw.. Not sure if our tank was just badly geared, but yesterday we had about 7-8 wipes due to a singular bomb exploding at a similar time to the boss autoattack and the tank just flat out dieing. I've killed phagemaw 3 times (once was a free kill cause we walked in with 1.25x as much DPS as i've ever had in a group before or after that, other two were with nosta, 0 deaths and missing the enrage timer by 2.3 and then 5 seconds) and wiped 100 or so on it, usually it's just some weird circumstance like oops tank dead nevermind wipe and like 18 people were playing completely fine for the last 4 minutes but it doesn't matter and you have to start over. That definitely gets my #1 by a mile for most frustrating fight unless you overgear+overskill it. I have not seen convergence yet, but that seems like the fight where you have to read an essay 5 times before even attempting it because there's just a whole lot of STUFF and "follow X, hit Y, interrupt Z at 3 minutes in" doesn't seem to cut it | ||

Another guild(?) merged into IM so there will be like 8 more people for next reset and hopefully we can get a tank that's not an alt with questionable survivability | ||

On the brightside, every time it crashed, you got 300+ people relogging at the same time and all spawning by ga entrance. The slaughterfest was insane :p | ||

![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/nfbNcyt.jpg) Hi All, We have been actively investigating UserServer crashes specific to Hazak that began occurring on Saturday. These are infrequent (less than 3 per day) however, when they occur they drop the entire realm. We should have an update for folks soon. Cheers These are infrequent (less than 3 per day) however, when they occur they drop the entire realm. sounds like fun hopefully they fix random drops and also the 15 second freezes at some point, because they don't happen particularly often but if it happens once every hour to 20 people.. it averages to somebody being killed every 3 minutes | ||

That's nothing :p In the 10 seconds after the crash there were about three times as many people, and half were exile. I think the dominions just reacted half a second faster, and oneshot everything, and every exile to log in after that insta-died before the game even rendered them. Also everyone got kicked from their raid groups, so you couldn't even re-enter GA to get away from the slaughter :D It happened at 8:20-ish, 8:40 and again at 8:43. That's where we gave up, but apparently it happened again after that. much infrequent T.T | ||
