    There's another forum talking about how people are having issues entering. That sometimes it is working and sometimes they just can't manage to get it. Or half their squad can get it, but the other half are stuck outside.

    Which, I'm thinking this thread actually belongs in the Dungeons & Tactics place, but whatever.

    b:chuckle This made me laugh so hard. RL marriage will be interesting for you, for sure.

    I did this instance once. It didn't even hold my interest while doing it that one time. So... IDC if they 'fix' it or not.

    1) Nothing drops in there, no coins, no DQ, no decomposable weapons, armor, or anything like that.
    2) The exp is... Meh at best. I'm NOT gonna waste my time and money hypering in an FCC-like instance in the lower levels, when there's really no barb capable of surviving the pulls/cleric capable of BBing until the 60's/70's...

    If you really want to get the 'most' out of this instance, get 6 sins together. Stealth to the boss, kill it. Exit, do it again. Obviously, this only applies to the lower levels... Once you can get a barb high enough level to pull most of the instance all at once, should be no problem.

    And a handful of other alts, all 79 and under.

    I took my Seeker in there just today, and solo'ed the instance except for the boss in less than an hour, with an exp gain of over 30% (level 37-38), and a repair bill of about 11k. Overall not bad, considering I would pay more for more exp in FC.

    You would have gotten 10-20 levels in Frost in 1 hour thought b:embarrass

    Grinding 1 hour at 35+ gives way more exp than 30% as well, you also get drops doing that and make money instead of loosing it.

    I'm guessing this instance isn't fully implemented yet, otherwise it makes no sense running it.

    now im gunna go ahead and assume u didnt count the 400k for hypers u spent, and if ur under 75 the cost of pots or charms, if over 75 then almost no cost there.


    but really, just the cost on the hyper alone, for 1 hour only once a day u spent the same as one fcc head room. id say the costs are equal

    Honestly.... at levels 35-40 hypers in general are stupid to me.
    You can hyper and grind and get a level or so, but if you go and pay 400k for oracles you can get 3-4 levels. So, if you're looking for a 'quick' way to level and don't want to pay for an FF rush, the wicked pirate is a better option than only gaining 30% from that or 1 level for hypering an hour.
    Though, this is assuming you have a cleric friend who will heal your butt while you kill the pirate repeatedly.


    Though, 30-40 really isn't that hard to do via questing. It's different when you're higher up and only get a fraction of a percentage of exp, but at those levels you can get pretty good exp per quest.

    40-50 is a breeze with BH29 being so easy and so much exp. Doing BH and CS once a day levels you.
    At 50 do the Coming of age and that gets you a good 3-4 levels. Then just do BH39.
    60 is where it starts slowing down, so I can understand doing PV here, but really it's like 2 days per level if you do BH so not too bad.
    70 slows down a lot, so yeah, I'd be doing PV here if it gave me good exp.
    80. OH, It's FF time.

    Everything has its beginnings, but it doesn't start at one. It starts long before that... The world is born From zero. The moment zero becomes one is the moment the world springs to life. One becomes 2. 2 becomes 10. 10 becomes 100. taking it all back to one solves nothing. so long as zero remains... One.. Will eventually grow to 100 again.
