Thread: SoG Nearly every attack AOE?

  1. #1

    Default SoG Nearly every attack AOE?

    Root locked at SoG, dead in seconds. Couldn't move from the first hit of SoG. Checking logs files indicate nearly every SoG hit was aoe, or multi hits.

    Blight Brambles is 2 hits per person.

    Blighted Brambles - AOE
    Life void - AOE
    Whirlwind attack - AOE
    again he hits with blighted brambles - AOE
    again hits with Life Void - AOE

    Son's Shield used Kwellen Errupt - AOE
    At this point I am already dead.

    mind you this is all within about 10 seconds of the first hit to pull him in
    soon as I am revived, it starts all over:
    Gaping Void - AOE
    Blighted Brambles.....
    dual hits by Son's shield for Kwellen Errupt V -AOE
    Paralizing Gaze - AOE

    More dual hit AOE's from SOG
    Son of Gigaroth hit you with Gaping Void for 263 blight damage.
    Son of Gigaroth hit you with Gaping Void for 336 blight damage.
    Also the rest of the group members

    Does he or his shields do any single hits anymore? I fought him around christmas and it was not constant AOE's nor was it that easy for him to kill me. within 2 minutes the entire team was down.

    He can hit 5 people before anyone can hit him, just using his normal attack. Once again I have to assume this attack is AOE. All it said was hits you for blight damage.. hits xxx for blight damage and so on. no skill or any name used for this attack

    The boss mobs cheat. Been that way for awhile.

    In this case, were Son's Shield kwellens also casting some of those? Might make it appear he was re-casting those very quickly.

    We took him down a week or so back, we had like 10 and it went ok with a couple deaths.
    Take out the adds asap, bring some Ancients. Should go a little better.

    They don't cheat in the sense that they aren't breaking any rules. They use strictly what they are provided. Most likely what is happening is that the majority of the abilities for the monster don't have any or have very small pre and post delays. So, SoG simply used an alpha strike of all available abilities at the start of combat and since they probably don't have high delays (and probably don't share recycles) they all got used within a few seconds of one another.

    any adjustments planned? It's like he has multi-strike and mutli-cast on at all times

    @Guaran, no it was SoG. I mentioned where the son's shields hit. the log files specifically states all the hits I listed as SoG himself

    they probably don't have high delays (and probably don't share recycles)

    If we have to suffer with both why not them?

    no whining, no complaining- just spoken frankly
    (and more or less only my opinion??):
    Sog: No fun
    Reklar: no fun
    Surtheim: no fun

    so the hunters I regular play with, do not hunt them anymore.
    Often- it our time zone- there are not enough players on to invite (players who could help with that bosses)
    or not enough time left to wait for more. If we have a good group then there is only time left for one boss- again- no fun..

    Ahh its not that bad, Surtheim, if it wasnt needed for so many quests, is fun and you dont need that many people. Reklar is hassle because of shards, but its not that tough either. Sog however is major pain since you need to spend 40 minutes just looking for him.

    update:-)

    With my old gang (united again-hurray!!), and the incredible Kaigara-
    we did them all- and it was F U N !!!
    Reklar nearly got us- 72 shards been not enough this time.

    But well.. lots of ubers in our group..and one less- we would have failed
