We've been incredibly impressed with how far some guilds have made it in the Veteran version of Dragonstar Arena. We’re going to be making a small change to the mechanic that occurs when the final arena boss reaches 50% that will make the fight a bit more fair. Not necessarily easier, just a bit less RNG-based.
The fix isn't changing any mechanics, but will be changing the order in which certain things fire off. For example, you’ll have a little more time against mini-bosses before certain abilities are cast.
That change will be going in next week (Wednesday or later.) If you want to wait until then, we understand. Hit up the Serpent Trial in the meantime!
100 % stage 1-9 are harder than on pts but they are not game changing. Stage 10 is the one which made the most problems for the ppl on pts and now on the liveserver.
The Dark Mage does not use Solar Prison. The Dark Mage's skillset is as follows:
Dark Conversion
Crystal Blast
Daedric Minefield
Negate Magic
Pishna also does not use Solar Prison. At 50% the boss changes into a Templar, and starts using Solar Prison himself. In Stage 7, the Dark Mage is paired with another boss whose name I forget. That partner uses Solar Prison, but is not present on Stage 10.
I think Jessica was fairly clear in her post. The boss is harder on live than it was on PTS.
It's harder on live that it was at the END of pts. It's EASIER on live than it was when HODOR killed it.
What about that could you possibly not understand?
Note: We got him to 5% several times tonight. Clearly the fight is tuned for PVP buffs, and is much harder since we have none. It will surely be significant when we kill it in harder mode, with no pvp buffs.
You should try it.
P.S. The fact that PVP buffs carry into raids significantly varies raid difficulty. We should probably talk to ZOS about having them limited to outside of instances. I remember doing LK25 HM progression in wow WOTLK, and getting that 5% buff every few weeks made the fight incredibly different. Obviously, this is the same effect with end game raiding and PVP buffs here.
Maybe the devs want you to play both aspects of the game. Shocking.
Your sarcasm aside, we could ask them. But I doubt that is their intention, that end-game content basically requires pvp buffs. It pretty much goes against the "play as you want" philosophy. Besides, you can only tune a fight to one degree. Entering the fight with differentiated buffs defeats their effort to balance the encounter. Thats probably the same reason grahtwood buffs now only work in grahtwood.
I'll predict pvp buffs excluded from instanced fights in the next 60 days.

Cool.
So basically, that makes this comment pretty pointless, wouldn't you say?You're probably only on here because you need a break from raging about not having a buff server any longer. That's probably why you haven't cleared it yet right? It's funny when you guys do that. Gives us a lot of laughs in TS. We're getting hungry for some easy AP if you reds want to try your hand at pvp again.

Really I didn't know that you are so good!!! You cant stop it, or?
We called him darkmage because he is the partnerboss of the darkmage in stage 7. So you had the mainboss and so called a copy of the mainboss as miniboss. Two time solarprison.
I tired of argue with u tripwys u are just a bad looser.
We beated the boss on pts. You didn't beated him and u tried hard, just check pts forum.
You beated the boss on live with 20 souls left, we beated the boss 5 mins after u with 83 souls left. Its not like you achieved anything which we didn't.
ZOS_JessicaFolsom can pls give a last statement to the last boss to end this here
And here a video for all the other players how to beat stage 10 arena.

Where is your vid about the kill? On ours u can see how much trouble we had with the last boss because its so hard

Arua✭Such a clean kill HODOR, you guys make it look easy ahah.
Congratulations again, don't get bogged down in pointless arguments, you deserve congratulations on both kills, be it in PTS (which sometimes involves harder and bugged boss encounters, I dare anyone to say it wasn't the case even with WoW) and in Live. Leave them alone and let people judge who deserves better.
Edit: By the way, I didn't feel any offense intended in Madini's first post, he properly gave his congratulations to Alacrity. Though he pointed out a fact suggesting that he had a different point of view about what definition he had in mind when talking about "World First", I believe the first verbal abuse came from Alacrity, talking about ignorance and such. Sugar coated verbal abuse is STILL verbal abuse. You could have been less aggressive when talking out such an issue. But you didn't and immediatly engaged in an abusive argument with him.
What right do you guys have to make fun of other people's standpoints (or even claims)? Your experience in MMOs? The general consensus coming from I-don't-know-which-e-community you believe to be the truth/reference? Your fame? Your e-skill? Are you serious?
Both sides may have been at fault there, and I believe the end of Madini's comment lacked tact, but you could have exercised some diplomacy there. The first post from Madini wasn't necessarily intended to be offensive, though he was obviously feeling bitter (who wouldn't), but you guys just brought it down to a pointless aggressive tone. From that point onwards, it was obvious the other party would take offense. Then you bring out your know-it-all wisdom and your almighty PvP skills and belittle Madini's MMO experience to justify and show off your supposed superiority.

We beated the boss before this changes came. And the actual live version has this changes.
He was obviously talking about the PTS version of the fight, pre-patch (which he successfuly cleared). You probably should pay attention to people's explanations before trying to get back at them, actually.
I actually removed that section of my post after seeing his video. Turns out he is cheesing the boss anyway, so I have zero respect for his kill at this point in time.Alacrity Founder | Forum Emperor

we are bugging nothing, the strategy was seen by the devs because we reported a lot of bugs during the challenge....
bugging out you are just hilarious .. its a valid strategy. there is a reason why there is a range for the fire ... so where is your video
You honestly think that is an intended mechanic? Like serious question here....

You mean kind of like how we reported that you can get stuck behind the fence in Stage 9, or when we reported that you can use a mount to clip through Hel Ra gates, or when we reported that you can use a mount to clip through invisible walls in Cyrodiil?
Just because it was reported and not fixed does not mean it is intended behavior.[/quote]
No by sending vids from different bugs at the last boss to the devs ...

Yes, that is exactly what I just said. We went a step further and had a GM observe us performing bugs step-by-step in-game, and they are still not fixed. Reporting a bug and it not getting fixed before being pushed live does NOT mean it is intended behavior.Edited by Tripwyr on September 23, 2014 5:21PMAlacrity Founder | Forum Emperor

So am I. Let me be as clear as possible: many guilds regularly communicate directly with ZoS, including us. We do not feel the need to boast about this on the forums, and we respect the private nature of our communication.
Please do not disrespect ZoS, the Devs, and Jessica by bringing her into this matter.Alacrity Founder | Forum Emperor

It is very clearly unintended that you be able to out-range the Atronach portion of the fight, which you are abusing.
EDIT: We did not record our attempt because none of us are able to record video while playing, you'll notice that my screenshots are already low-quality.Edited by Tripwyr on September 23, 2014 5:38PMAlacrity Founder | Forum Emperor
