LU 24 & Solo Instances

[ZeyGnome]

<DIV>I went to Splitpaw with my 41 Monk this eve, since I didn't have a lot of time and did the Solo Arena, easiest level.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>During that battle, I had to fight an even 42 (Phosm) and an even 43 (Champion).  This doesn't count the 3- 42 (2 down) and the 2- 42 (1 down) as well as several other mobs.  </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I am unable to check on Test because I have no character high enough to try instances.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Are the instances going to be brought down to match these changes?  On the easiest, it wasn't easy, and I ended up using Compress just to get the last hit in on that champion.  </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>In the middle level Splitpaw Arena, I know Phosm is an even 45.  Now this is supposed to be a SOLO instance.  </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Hopefully the instances (if the others are like this) will be retuned before LU24 goes to Live to adjust for the changes.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I'm starting to wonder if these changes are really based upon someone having all legendary weapons/armor and all master spells/CA.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>There is no way the Easiest of this instance will be doable after LU24 goes to Live.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV><p>Message Edited by ZeyGnome on <span class=date_text>05-25-2006</span> <span class=time_text>09:41 PM</span>

<font color="#ffff00">The splitpaw saga instances scale to your level, so the levels of the mobs are completely dependant on your current level.  The arena (Solo) is easy to complete in my opinon, if you know what you are doing, and whom your next encounter is going to be. Firstly you can rest between every bout and prepare yourself accordingly which in it's self makes the whole arena abit of a joke. You can wait till your combat art timers have reset so in theory someone could use there big hitting combat art finishing of the present encounter, wait till the timers have reset and then go into the next encounter, and keep doing this until they have beaten the champ. Doesn't sound too difficult to me, sorry but I fail to see where you are having trouble. Are you saying as a level 41 monk you're  finding it difficult to beat a level 43 mob? It should con yellow to you which I'm sure if you talk to other monks is not a problem to defeat.</font> <div></div>

<DIV>The arena is easy now imho, with my only adept 1 Mystic alt it is a walk in the park, the arena was really hard when it just came out, the champion ate most raid geared scouts warriors and clerics for breakfast. It took me at least 6 or so tries, good old fashioned pre LU 13 bow kiting and potions to beat him with my raiding assassin. With my mystic I gave up after 4 tries.</DIV>

<DIV>All instances (AFAIK) scale to your level.  The thing I am talking about is, it seems our target has been lowered so that what was a normal,even fight will not be anymore.  So this 43 yellow (in the Splitpaw's easiest arena) will no longer be doable by most classes.   This doesn't even cover the medium and hard versions (which are still supposed to be Solo instances)</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>This will be content that will become incompletable by most people unless it is tuned to match these changes.  Remember, our level stays the same so the instances will spawn exactly the same as they are now even though we won't be the same.  </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV><p>Message Edited by ZeyGnome on <span class=date_text>05-26-2006</span> <span class=time_text>05:25 AM</span>
