Despite some obviously flawed loot tables, in better news it looks like the price of krono has dropped under 200k. This is somewhat promising considering there was a period last week where it rare to see krono listed below 250k. I am sure it is at least in part due to PoP being launched and people needing plat to buy new spells / gear etc, but I'll be hopeful and include the possibility that the banning of dupers last week Zaide mentioned, also contributed to the slow down.

Pop launch always drops krono price by 15-25% in the first week or so. It of course wont hold long though. With the abundance of loot and the phase 4 loot exploit happening right now I would expect to see another explosion in price in a few weeks.

Lets be honest, Mischief and Thornblade have been a buggy mess. We are talking major exploits not minor ones.

Its been a fun server overall, just some crippling bugs. I could see them doing this server again with the fixes and it being a much better server.

He existed as an event long before the epic 1.5. It's actually his shade that is the epic mob. People keep talking about "oh my gosh he's out of era" but he's not; that's not the mob that's being killed. Now, could he nevertheless be fucked up enough to be dropping out of era loot? Sure, this is DPG after all.

The bizarre thing is why in the world he has a server-wide message for him.
The message is probably tied to him being an "epic" mob, kinda like Phinny.

I think Mujaki is fine, he just needs a lockout. Idgaf if he's dropping p4 loot, but if he's repeatable? That's pretty dumb.

The spreadsheet warriors will eventually get their wish. Whine enough on forums/discord because it cuts into the Krono market, and "tier" everything nice and neat into little autist packaging.

Instantly repeatable. His trigger mobs respawns before he dies.

I think he is 1 groupable in era.

He has a serverwide because there is an achievement for him
Yeah, the repeatable part is where it becomes a problem - that I agree with. He probably needs a lockout, at least until he becomes necessary for Pally epic.

Is he 1 groupable? I seem to remember him taking like 20ish people back in the day. I realize damage is WAY higher on TLPs than it was "back then", but I'd still think you'd need 10ish or so. I guess with enough gear and AAs you could get it down to one group possibly.

EDIT - After chatting with some folks, it seems like this dude is only dropping up to P4 loot max and typically only every 8 or 9 kills or so. All they really need to do is fix how easy he is to repeat and he's fine.

"He is dropping on average p4 item every 6 to 9 kills, but mostly Grummus and other crap loot. If you average 3 kills an hour and you have 6 to 12 people, that is 0.5 to 0.25 p4 items per character for a 3 hour investment.

This is not as great as some people are making it out to be, they have clearly not done him. If you are in a raiding guild your time is better spent doing other stuff. For a non raider, this might be a good chance for them to get a few Time items during a 3 hour time investment for item that they normally wouldn't see."


So, like predicted, the only people this really impacts are the Kronolords and shit. For anybody who is actually raiding, your time is FAR better spent on other shit.

Like usual, the same fucking retards who got us TrueBox will help ruin what makes Mischief fun. Basically, the Al Bundy's who can't let go of the "good 'ole days!" and just hop from TLP to TLP. The crowd that'd be better off just playing P99 and fucking off forever. Just add a 12hr respawn timer to his trigger mob and call it a day.

Goddamn they can't announce the next TLP soon enough. I can't wait for these whiners to leave.

Oh yay, so basically the only zone anyone will care about no longer will be different than any other server, it seems. Great job!

I wonder if this means there won't be extra loot tables?

Having fully cleared PoP that's WAY WAY better then anything other then a fully spawned Fire/water. That's just fucking retarded.

Do you know how many mobs don't have a serverwide that have an achievement? Hundreds and hundreds, LOL. None of those other mobs have serverwides.
The increase in unimportant "raid" mobs giving serverwide messages happened when Ngreth implemented achievements in 2017.

They did make a patch to stop things like an Enraged Warboar stop giving serverwides.

But, they missed some useless targets like Mujaki and the Fishlord event.

Damn it to hell and back.! Fucking exploiters just caused Time loot to be quarantined to Plane of Time only.

Do the devs not fucking understand what Randomized means? Just remove Mujaki, and leave the Time loot randomized.
