You really think in his current state that he is supposed to proc like this? I'm not saying he is unbeatable, it is obvious now numerous times he has died ( none on red based on the current posts and now 2 times on blue? ). What I'm saying is that this is nowhere near where it should be, and it's a bullshit fight.

Hmmmm, we didn't lose 60 people in 5 seconds tonight. Wonder what's different.

Finally this fight is 100% classic, clearly the most enjoyable fight on p99. I spent many many hours researching this fight. Refer to the post below for more information before you come throwing incorrect facts at the Sontalak encounter that kicks some serious ass.

From 0:20 to 1:30 that cleric casts no group heals on his group. They all are slowly taking AOE damage and then at the end of it he casts a group CH to top off his group.

He seems to take AEs (loses buff and Halfling makes audible "I got hit noise" at 0:18, 0:32, 0:50, 1:04, 1:16, 1:30, (he DAs), 2:00, 2:14. Suggesting a 12-14 second delay between AEs... Never once do two AEs come back to back in a 3-5second period.

A few things:

On P99 over that 70 second period you could expect 14-21 Fire AE procs over that duration (assuming 3-5sec between procs like observed last night). That is more than double a fully buffed MT's HP. Yet they seem to have no problem not healing during that period of time.

It is slightly possible he proc'd that much and they just resisted a lot? I doubt this however they may be stacking 255 FR whereas on P99 we are required to stack 255 MR instead.

Which brings me to another point. Again - http://www.project1999.com/forums/sh...highlight=Roar - Notice how very few people are eating fears. Trying to cast group CH (12s cast time) on P99 would be absolutely suicide. However here he has no issue because he really never gets feared. Dragon Roar REALLY needs to be put on the correct version with no extra Lure check.

If it is intended to be a proc, it seems to have a recharge on it around 12 seconds. If it intended to be a proc in classic it should have a recast of about 12-14 seconds.

He was certainly harder than the other first brood but he shouldn't be that ridiculous.

Its killable with a 100-man raid force, sure. But the state it is in isn't remotely classic. Watching the classic video you can see its no where close to what we have on P99.

I apologize for not checking the count [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]. The rest of my post is factual though.

The state of Sontalak here isn't the state of Sontalak on live, as shown by the video from 2001.

Hardly anyone killed Sontalak 4 months into Velious

Show proof of him being a breeze in this era, not some omens of war garbage. Most people werent even level 60. He's dying every time he spawns with ease, while wiping a zerge force using completely wrong strat. Going to forums when things aren't going your way is the new strategy?
