Hi everyone ;
so i have this question : on what ecxactly is based the tiamat contest ?
If it's DPS i think that there is something wrong with Hr damage calculation .

i did at least 20 runs and i walways find myself at the bottom with such a big Numbers diffrence .
why is it weired ?
because im 17k gs combat StormWarden HR with a greater vorpal 38% crit , 7k power , 2500 arp + (5%) from stats and usually in t2 donjons im always with the top paingivers .
maybe the piercing damage is not calculated or something ?
any HR felt he's doing less good than before ? ...

    On several factors like healing, probably damage done, I guess damage taken. Who knows what else.

    I've gotten gold several times, 1st once, and 2nd once with my HR (24k). Still, there's no way she's out-damaging everyone else out there (her build is set for maximum tankiness). I sure can't explain the scoring. Thia can take a great deal of punishment, though.

    That's the same reward I got for coming in second. So, I guess it doesn't matter how you're ranked.

    Damage taken x5, HP healed x3. Something like that. It's really easy for a GF or DC (especially dps spec) to be on the top.

    I've gotten dragon eggs and a cult 20 slot bag even on losses presumably based upon position.

    Damage taken seems to be dialled up really high. This is unfortunate, as things inevitably get infested with pointless prot GFs- which massively reduces DPS, increases lag, and makes an already insipid low-DPS mega-PUG even weaker.

    Not only do they bring nothing useful- they are an active disadvantage and rewarded handsomely for it :)

    I have made 8 runs so far and always got a gold reward, even if I wasn't ranked in Top10.
    I got the same reward as pictured above for winning once.
    For losing i got the toon book (103k bid in the AH, seriously who bids on an item that was released 2 days ago?) and the 20slot bag (That was the best drop since months).
