Game Mechanics: Trakanon gate

[Nirgon]

Haven't seen or noticed* him attempt to gate like Hoshkar etc...


Source from Legacy of Steel Archive

With all the times we've killed the poison beast of Old Sebilis, he can still manage to whipe out even the seemingly most coordinated effort. Translation: we got owned when the fugger gated.

(Dr. Nirgon's note: probably from all the dots on everyone and damage done by breaths while trying to work him back down again!)

I believe he should reset aggro when he gates as well but retain his hate list?



*He is roflstomped on blue in a flurry of "so and so begins to cast a spell"s and other general insanity...

[Nirgon]

Should go for a gate at 30%

[Nizzarr]

nothing gates at 30%, you're high.

[Nirgon]

Post is from 04... but still... shouldn't have changed

If Trakanon gates, he will reappear at spawn point in lair and will regain approximately 5k HP. I do not recommend that anyone fights him in bridge area due to a few bad spots where he might repop back into lair regaining HP.

If Trak gates, remain in the lair.

If hate gates? Redo the last 33% hp again, source:

Q: What happens if he gates?

A: Then youll have to use stonestance and drag him back into the water, wait 2 minutes for the Protector to move and redo the last 33% of hes hp again.

Prosecution rests its case against non-gating and at ~30% hp Trakanon.

Sounds like he is gating when he is pulled off his spawn point like most other mobs do. I doubt he would attempt to gate if he isn't far enough from that spawn.

[Nizzarr]

Mobs gating on live gave them 25% hp back.

Shit only gate under 10%.

8% + 25% = 33%

come again sir.

[Handull]

mobs shouldn't gate when they are within a certain radius of their spawn point, this was discussed in other threads i believe.

trak is usually killed on/near his spawn on p99

......

profit?

Trakanon confirmed to have gated as of 2/24 on Blue. Was pulled out of lair
