EC : 8M-NiM (world ranking)


Recommended Posts

I love how the guild that downed this boss second actually came 6th :confused:

 

You really need to fix up this point system. More weight needs to be put on the final boss.

 

Exactly this. Seems so dumb to me. The focus of the whole thing is to get the final boss down first. And they were second, but because of how the points are weighted on position and not relative to time difference between the kills they were placed 6th. Completely illogical.

make sense, somehow, but tbh, most of guilds that killed kephess so quick were ppl that avoided first 3 bosses with hm lockout, so i dont see a achievment on that, tanks are rly a hard fight to get thru without the right strategy

Do you even know what you are talking about? People posted screenshots of early bosses NM kill. And the other bosses before Kephess in NM are not even remotely close to him difficulty wise.

if this is doable, then it is entirely BW fault and ba design. IMO once you have downed one boss on HM, you should not be allowed to change it to NiM.

Most guilds? Tell me one :). There are only 7 who reported the kill on him so far.

And all of these posted as well screenshots of the first 3 boss kills on nightmare as well.

Dont accuse someone if you cant prove it.

 

And it seems you dont know what you talk about. the First 3 bosses are not this much harder on nightmare as they are on hard mode.

Just one new mechanic on each boss dont make this a whole new event (as they announced it will be).

 

Kephess is just different because each phase got a new mechanic. So it add up to a new level, because you have to find out difference on each phase.

 

About the ranking system, well. What you want is a system that list the guild by kill of the last boss and ignore the first 3.

The time factor could cont in as well a bit to flatten it out. The 23 guilds that reported the kill of the first boss were all within less than 24 hours. And still, the difference in the points is big. So some guilds that got a early kill on the first 3 bosses but could not kill Kephess still get more points than any guild that is clearing it now (all 4).

Kephess has already a higher value. But not enough to counter a 11th-13th rank on the first 3 versus a 3rd kill on Kephess.

no offense to night's radiance, but the fact that they leap frogged positions with how far behind they were on the kephess kill shows how flawed this points system is. they were a lockout behind, but because they were the next team to kill, they only lose 40 points. same as world second kephess kill dropping to 6th or whatever it was.

there needs to be a time based factor in there relative to the first kill. teams get punished for minutes behind on the first few bosses because of their ease, yet no loss if there are days gap and a lockout if noone gets a kill in final boss.
