It makes sense... I'm sure SoE/ Daybreak has altered the base combat code so much over the years that it's easier to dole out buffs like this to players and NPCs alike instead of trying to recode it to how it used to be. I was just surprised. At least it sounds like NPCs are tuned to accommodate for the additional DPS. I'd be curious about EXP groups. 250 DPS would melt just about any mob in Kunark/ Velious.

Any mob outside of raid targets that is, like a dvolarg sentry, I meant.

yeah, its pretty sick on trash. when i do out of group dps at outer castle in velks for people i have to just not backstab or i end up ks'ing a good bit even if their chanter has a champ charmed. 823 max backstab is sweet [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Velious mobs all have this buff right?

[47490] Mitigation of the Mighty IV
Target: Self
Resist: Beneficial, Blockable: Yes
Focusable: Yes
Casting: 0s
Duration: 120h (72000 ticks) Song, Extendable: Yes, Dispelable: No
Hate: 1
1: Increase Corruption Counter by 9999
2: Absorb Spell Damage: 20%
3: Absorb Melee Damage: 20%
4: Absorb DoT Damage: 20% over 0
Mitigates incoming damage.

So the actual damage you're capable of doing is 20% more than those parses?

i believe there are different versions of that buff with different percentages that are applied to diff expansions. there was an issue when velious launched where some mobs had the kunark version of mark which made them really hard to kill. im not sure which version velious mobs have, i can check tonight.

Ya it scales. For old world stuff it's MotM 1, Kunark is MotM 2, Velious is MotM 3, Luclin will be 4. Most targets also do Protection of the mighty which reduces everyone's resists, and then everything also does Mark of the Old Ways which nerfs pet damage so people can't Mage pet zerg everything.

Fights are still challenging. Vyemm and AoW are always dicey.

I suspect this is part of the reason xp rates are lowered on Phinny. People get all hung up on the amount of xp they get per kill but they seem to fail to notice they kill a lot more stuff a lot faster than they would back in the day.

we had a really rapey vulak wih ranger sword and shield not too long ago.

yeah the pet debuff is interesting. it allows a certain number of pets to engage the mob without penalty and then after number x all pet damage is lowered across the board so it becomes a hindrance to stack pet classes like they did on ragefire and lockjaw

Anichek could fix it. Someone should give him the keys to the castle.

App was reviewed, some chit chat may or may not have occurred, and then I was given the cold shoulder.

Hi Nibble.

The best way to fix the raid scene on p99 is to stop raiding and stop playing your raid toons. Then you can level a new toon from scratch with no twinking.

it's the best part of the game, my dudes
