Hi!

Today I've joined a group of people for casual clear of nMOL. Someone was there for Alcosh, someone for moondancer things. I just wanted those 5 transmute crystals you get for weekly trial quest.
But the trial lagged and bugged, and not not in your usual 'low fps and freezes' way. Mobs forgot most of their attacks, Zhaj’hassa forgot his explosions, twins only gave us colors once and then forgot everything. I think the only damage the party received was from rare aoes. Our health bars almost never moved.
It was bad for players too - resources either weren't restored by heavy attacks at all or their bars were heavily lagging. Skills, bar swaps, heavy attacks weren't always registering. Enemies' health bars weren't immediately changing in responce to attacks. You could have 3 people attacking the mob and his health bar would be like '352k... 352k... 351k...'. Of course, inability to do a usual rotation doesn't really matter when Skinrai becomes so passive that he just comes to a squishy dd, stares at him for few seconds and goes back to the center of the room, but still, people didn't like the experience, so they started leaving after twins.
By the time we reached that long coridor before the last boss only three people remained, including me. I suspected that Rakkhat wouldn't use any mechanics as well and was curious to see if it's true. Two other people joined me.
And we defeated him! The three of us, 1 tank and 2 dds. Took us 27 minutes and 0 deaths.

Part 1

Part 2


I'm not bragging, of course. It's not an accomplishment when the only threats are those red circles that appear every 1.5 minutes. No Lunar phase, no adds, no orbs. It's an extreme example of a sorry state of trials, and I sincerely hope that I never see anything like this again. ZOS, please fix.
I also strongly recommend not to try and repeat it. nMOL doesn't give you anything special, like veteran trials do, but still it kind of looks like an exploit. Besides, it's very slow and boring.

Sorry for clickbait ^^

    I’m not sure if you’re being serious, or if this is a sarcasm-based thread... However, congratulations on your clear.

    I noticed there's a lot of unusual stuff going on today with the game.
    "Such is the nature of evil. Out there in the vast ignorance of the world, it festers and spreads. A shadow that grows in the dark. A sleepless malice as black as the oncoming wall of night. So it ever was, so will it always be. In time all foul things come forth." -Thranduil

    /me counts the number of people who only read the title and not the rest of the post

    Anyway, can't say I've ever saw anything like that before; is this a console bug? You should get @ZOS_Finn to watch that video.

    We had done nMoL with 4 people twice. The first time was more than a year ago, the other just recently. It got a lot easier due to the power creep. The first time, we had to go through lunar.

    As a matter of fact, we did try it with 3 people once (also about a year ago). But that requires 1 person to do the backyard alone (otherwise the boss will never die and adds will eventually *** up the tank, latest after lunar). We did have a sorc, streaking for her life in the backyard, but she'd fail 1 in 3 times.

    Even though you ran into a bug, it is probably world first. Hard to tell. Doesn't matter though. Learn from Alcast. You're first. Period. B)

    If you think that you had a bad run , come see PS4 EU BATTLEGROUNDS . 3 seconds bar swap , all players teleporting . Skills 99% going off atleast 4 seconds after pressing key . It was nightmare .....

    I reinstalled eso today. Saw a 3500 glitter pony in the crown store and instantly bailed. This game needs to get its priorities straight. Lol.

    I once soloed Yokeda Kai in vHRC in much the same fashion. The right group was about to wipe and, because it is bugged anyway and you often get stuck in an infinite 'waiting for battle to end' screen, I ran away to try to reset the boss. When it got to the stairs as you enter the catapult room, it just stood there... I looked at it, it looked at me. So I proceeded to finish it off from about 50% as it politely accepted my attacks without moving a muscle. It took a fair bit of time, but it was better than disbanding the group and reinviting everyone in the event that a wipe did cause us all to become permadead.
