THAT_EPIC_GUY Posted December 9, 2018 Author Share Posted December 9, 2018 (edited) Archived original discussion post Hello all. I have put myself forward to run a progression tracking thread for the upcoming raid tier; Gods From the Machine Nightmare. The purpose of this thread is to encourage a sense of progression, friendly competition, track clearance rates of the tier and give teams an avenue to take pride in their accomplishments. I plan to track a teams progress, showing their kills for each individual boss as well as whether or not they have achieved the timed run. Naturally with a thread like this there will be a number of rules regarding claiming kills and I’d ask you to adhere to these when posting. I am open to discussion for those who are eager but I do apologise if there is not enough time to fully flesh out some thoughts as the content drop is a couple days away. I would love to hear your ideas though as I want to maximise participation in the community. Claiming kills In order to claim a kill I am requesting at the very least a screenshot which displays all relevant data. This will include; · The raid team and the dead boss/loot box (whichever occurs in the encounter of course) · The phase difficulty · The chat box showing the entire raid’s achievement pops (more on this later), if aiming for high ranked clears I would recommend creating a new chat tab in game which filters out all the extra information so this can be easier to display. · The time in UTC displaying the clock from https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclo...en.html?n=1440 in the screenshot. (If this is not included I will assume the kill time is the forum posting time; no exceptions). When claiming a kill I will be requesting the following information in addition to this screenshot; · Team identifier (guild name, team name, basically how you want to be referred as). I have chosen this route as these days there tends to be heavy crossover of raiders in multiple teams and guilds. As a result I am not concerned with which guild tags and how many of each are present. It is up to your raid team to determine the identity under which they wish to be referred to in these rankings. · Faction · Server (I will NOT be doing server level rankings, I just wish to include the information) If you disagree with any of these requirements or believe additional requirements are necessary feel free to explain your reasoning. Kill validity I want to include some way to keep an aspect of true progression and avoid board clutter and some potential dramas. As such I have decided that for a kill to be considered valid to claim a MINIMUM of 5 out of 8 raid members (10/16 in 16m) must gain their achievement in the kill being claimed. The purpose of this is to stop teams which are filled with players who have cleared the encounter in different teams from claiming progression ranked kills. As such some teams may need to provide multiple screenshots if there aren't enough members from a singular guild. In this case you can provide either everything in your initial post or make an initial post showing as much as you can in 1 screenshot and provide the remainders later on. I don’t think this will be highly relevant in initial kills as those teams likely have minimal overlap in players and I plan to make the ruling less strict as the tier goes on. I did not enforce this too strictly in my old veteran mode progression thread but I intend to be a bit stricter for the first several clears here. Since this board will be tracking a whole operation instead of a single boss like the previous board I ran. I recognise the potential for groups having killed bosses in different orders through the use of lockout sharing. For example a group may have cleared Aivela & Esne without having cleared Tyth already. I recognise that this is still an indicator of progression however, in terms of rankings, higher rankings will be given on the basis of these two things (in order); -Most bosses cleared -No skipped bosses To illustrate this with an example; let's say Team A has cleared the first three bosses, Team B has cleared bosses 2, 3 and 4, and team Teac C has cleared bosses 1, 2, 3 and 4. In this case Team C would be ranked highest, Team A ranked 2nd, and Team B ranked 3rd. If you have displayed everything required to claim the kill and of course haven’t blatantly exploited then I trust there won’t be any dramas regarding validity. That being said, I welcome players to contribute their distinction between encounter bugs and encounter exploits. In the event of bugs I feel a kill is valid (unless the bug is extreme), in the event of an exploit I feel it is not. This is a grey area which is difficult to determine unless something does arise in the fight in which case better judgement and player feedback will be used. An example of my board formatting is below. 8 man and 16 man will be tracked separately of course. Purple denotes a boss which has been killed by the team. Red and blue colors will indicate Imperial and Republic factions respectively. Boss names will link to provided screenshots. I'm happy to accept feedback on the board presentation. 8 Man [Tyth] [A&E] [Nahut] [scyva] [izax] [Timed] - <Big Happy Guild> - Star Forge I will be shifting this discussion post to the 2nd post in this thread and replacing it with the actual progression board upon the release of 5.10. I wholeheartedly encourage as many teams as possible to share their progress for all bosses in the raid and to take pride in their accomplishments. I thank you in advance for your feedback and participation. -Mac Edited December 12, 2018 by THAT_EPIC_GUY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merovejec Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 is gftm going to be released with 5 bosses ready or only until nahut? good one Threy! At first I smiled when I have seen this thread, but then I really did realize how many people actually came back. Well, its not many, but people did come back and also guilds started growing before the Guild Leveling update so actually it seems fine. So good luck to everyone and mainly have fun!

RikuvonDrake Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Honestly the most surprising part of that series of images is this part: Problem is these specific test groups fail all the time to find the bad bugs hence Izax 32% bug that still happens. It's not a bug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neweses Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 My fellow german Kamerad Finnio has made the real progression post for GftM NiM, where the progression will be fair for the german groups http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?p=9675400#post9675400 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthYun Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Patch got delayed so Americans can get back from work to do progression. This is only fair cause Germans would have a head start and that is not fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those screens should be sufficient, I cleaned up the original post to clarify what I'm looking for to avoid confusion. Videos aren't necessary but you are welcome to post if you wish.

DarthCognusSion Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Group Sapphire in Failure killed Tyth 2 days ago. Screenshot Twitch Vod We completely forgot to screenshot after. I went back in chat and took a screenshot of the achievements about 10-20 minutes later. Twitch video from Laet's stream for corroboration. Times are in EDT (I know, big oof. It's been a rough week).
