I've been trying to complete the Theater of despair since 7pm. I'm going to disembowel myself if I keep trying

Irfind

Zero ....

jainiadral

LOL, zero. And it'll stay zero until the sun supernovas. Or I'm dead. Whichever's first.

Already got all the weapons I need a few times over.

Doing this mostly for the 8 transmutation Crystals per run.

Hallothiel

Never done it as always thought I wasn't good enough but now feeling more confident so may try.

What is the best (easiest?) character to do this on? Stam or Mag? I have either I do vet trials on so could hopefully managed to do it on at least one.

Alcast has a 1bar pet sorc build that is pretty legit

I can't see the mobs or boss in real time, if I actually do see them/it I can't see their attacks/AoEs in real time...

Freakin_Hytte

I'm happy I already have all the weapons, and a couple of duplicates from most. So I'm happy I'll never need to into it again

TheImperfect

Didn't do vMA but managed to complete my first nMA run that I never get around to. I'm going to practice it some more times and then try vMA.

Got on late last night and realized the event was on around midnight. Got 2 tickets and one vMA clear before I logged out. Got the staff motif.

Haven't gotten a chance yet. Work...

I was going to do vMA. I have 2 inferno staves, 2 lightning and the bow and I thought I would do it to get the dagger/axe. Turns out I already have those so... I have every single useful things out of there and never have to run it again.

Vulsahdaal

Zero times finished.

Have completed stages 6/9 on my stamDK and 4/9 on my magsorc and seem to be stuck at these levels.

I thought sorc was supposed to be better for this? Or maybe not in my case

Anyways, on a break now from it but will most likely try again while event is going on.

I think Magicka is generally considered easier because of damage shields. Preventing damage is better than healing damage. And like Jayroo mentioned, Alcast's 1-bar Sorc is a good starting point. You wouldn't even need to farm/buy Necropotence and Plague Doctor -- Crafty Alfiq and Warrior-Poet will get you close to the same stats (and are cheaper).

I'm using Necropotence/Warrior-Poet and got my first clear ever Wednesday night (was trying to learn the mechanics ahead of the event). Managed to clear it once last night as well and got my double drop.

So far...3 sword+board drops. A dagger and shield the first time, and 2 maces and 2 shields last night. RNGesus can kiss my arse.

But at least I know now that I can do it. Now if i can get to the point where I'm not shouting obscenities at my computer screen, that would be great.

Hallothiel

Ta muchly for the replies. I did know about Alcast’s cheese build & can easily re gear sorc - may just read up again & give it a try! 🙂

1 then RL called me away.
Got a dagger and axe dw but then a maels shield and a sword if the hunt. Very wacky...

DR4GONFL1

I ran 3 yesterday and that's the most in a single day so far and that was my 12th,13th and 14th completion. I completed my very first run 3 weeks ago and never would of thought that I would ever finish in a day, it was so difficult.

On my last run yesterday I got my first Inferno Staff and in the same chest was a Lightning Staff....

I plan on a lot tomorrow evening once I have more time.

I plan on farming vma every day during the event. Style pages, jewelry to decon, weapons and 8 transmute crystals per clear. Seems like the best way to earn transmute crystals at the moment without having to cycle through alts looking for dailies.

I tried to for the first time yesterday and had to cut my PlayStation off on the ice stage because I felt anger issues resurfacing, then I started up and got to the fire stage before logging off for the night.

I did runs on Stam DK, Stamcro, Stamsorc, Stamblade, Stamden, Stamplar. Still no Winterborn Ice Staff, but an Elemental Succesion Inferno Staff at least. Tomorrow I'll do Magplar, Magblade, Magsorc, and Magden.

Then I'll wait for leaderboard reset before I do another round .

I think in general a cyrodiil group to farm rewards of the worthy is the fastest way to earn transmute crystals. In this case however I'd prefer vma, too, because of the additional style pages.

ArcaneBlue

none yet. not with this constant latency of 450+ since last week... yes VPNs exist but why do I have to pay for a 3rd party service just to be able to play at all, that shouldn't have to be the case

I have lost count of how many runs I've done but I only need 2 more motif pages to complete my collection. I'm in a very small % that can do under 30 minute clears so this event is not a struggle for me. Knowing the bugs and lag that everyone is facing I feel really bad for those of you trying to get your first clears during this event. I'm routing for yas though! Nothing in this game is as exciting as someones first vMA clear.

MLGProPlayer

My haul so far:

Mace: x4
Bow: x3
Dagger: x3
Sword: x2
Axe: x1
Maul: x2
Battle Axe: x1
Greatsword: x1
Resto Staff: x4
Ice Staff: x1
Lightning Staff: x1

Guess which item I'm looking for.......

On the bright side. I made some decent gold selling those motifs.
