Terrible Venena Rant Thread

I meant mana as in MP XD

He was at lvl 180-ish. It's impossible for you to be at that lvl and not have even 1MP bar

 

Even using Death Colon you have 1 bar. This dood

 

If I encounter questionable Venena parties(well...depending on HOW bad) I don’t really mind at first. Everyone starts somewhere and many players don’t fully understand Venena’s mechanics. It’s good to have some patience with them or let them know if they’re doing something wrong that’s leading them to die. Now...if you do let them know and they continue make the same mistakes without learning, then it can bother me a bit haha

 

it's a common occurence,the good thing is that you are not them and have the ability to ignore them.

those tags though.

cultured.

 

On normal and hard? Yes, forgivable.
On NM and Ulti? You don't deserve to get that far. Just delete yourself fr

 

Ultimate party with full 'DPS' ally, 10 mins run or full finale party with all of them focusing on just one pillar.

 

Funny part is that the only new tags are my pp hard and isra likes making new tags
All the rest are years old

 

My feelings exactly. Ultimate is like... You've hit nearly cap and have fought Venena like over 100 times by now. Y'all should know better

 

For the past month i don't really have much problem with parties on Venena. One thing though, i wish more tank adopt the long range tanking so they don't trigger the pillars aoes at the start of the battle. Regarding incompetent party mates, it is what it is. If I were to complain/criticize there'd be plenty of them. But can't really do anything about it. Like how mages are dead weight in a tank's party, or the tank got killed because of balls, or gsw users not careful enough.

Meteor is not a death sentence of mages were to prepare for it. My mage uses lil empress garb, charm belt, imperial shield and a 26% mag resist food buff with 8k hp, still alive with plenty hp to spare.

 

Shield Cannon has 20m range. I use knuckle tank, try to go 20m away from both pillars(8 to 9m away from Venena), use my combo: Shield Cannon-Guardian(save)-War Cry(smite) on one pillar, cancel auto Shukuchi after combo then switch to another pillar and do the same.

That gives me enough aggro at the start. If not enough, I use War Cry-Guardian(save)-Finale(smite) once or twice and use my first combo again on both pillars to maintain aggro. Unfortunately, IF THE PLAYERS IN YOUR PARTY OR ALLY IS TOO EAGER TO DIE THEY ATTACK FIRST BEFORE YOU DO SO YOU CAN'T POSITION FIRST AND THE FIRST, SECOND, THIRD OR EVEN FOURTH BLADES ARE COMING. Worst is if they die because of that. Total red flag for me. If they won't listen, I'm out.

Also, I never attack Venena until both pillars are killed. It's the trash members that do so if there are mages, they drop dead unless either they have good timing, HP ,or I start to lock her for 10 secs at most. If it's urgent that's my limit, if not can keep her locked for 15-17secs with knuck tank.

 

Im fine with a bit of mistakes as long as the overall run doesnt exceed 5 min. Also you can initiate the combo right away as you'd be around 21 m at the start of the battle. And buff combo doesnt require you to lock on each target to generate the aggro on them so I just lock on 1 pillars then do the combo. This way it wouldn't matter if anyone strikes early. I also constantly do the combo while the others fight the pillars since it also generate party buff aggro for venena, this will accumulate enough aggro on venena even before anyone hit her. I also use sonic blade which would outrun any shukuchi

 

How

 

In a tank's party, meteors or even the dark energy balls would kill most mages ive partied up so far

 

Thought the people the meteors hit were randomized or based on lowest aggro, because I've seen them get rocked even when they arent on my(the tanks) team

 

That would be because they overlap with a member in the tank's party. I've never been targeted by any aoes on the other side

 

Im pretty sure if you called him that you are not contributing, he will straight up answer "I stabilized proration"
Bollocks, no dmg is no dmg

 

Only reason I can say otherwise is that on a team that my side had all bow/mage, a dw from the other team kept cuddling me and having spikes and fireballs crash on me every 20 seconds because I don't stun

 

this game have mechanics? really?
