    Don't even need BoA for the last and first boss. Just stand there and attack.

    And for ranged classes soloing: as long as you have 25+meters on the boss, he won't poke you, besides purge and aoe from time to time that drops you about half. :>

    good thing I got Sage Winged Blessing for my archer(14 meter extra attack range), makes it even easier. I just said BOA because it's damage is amazing.

    I don't think I ever took any damage from either Genesiac Blink or Primal Fear. Just the random seal from the first vile boss... the earth vector stun thing that Primal Fear does never actually does anything to me that I can see :<

    True that. I'll probably just do that and put the volume high so I can hear it from other rooms if I start getting damaged a lot just incase. But wont Adv. Auto Pot consume me a crab if I would set it to do so around 50-60% HP? As well as herbs? Or does the boss jam my BOA?

    The damage on sage (or even demon) barrage SUCKS balls compare to regular attack on single targets.
    1. If I kill you; do something about it yourself, don't go complaining to my wife.
    2. If you have less kill counts then me, don't expect me to take pk advice from you.
    3. If you are hiding behind an alt, don't expect me to acknowledge your existence.

    Never had much issue myself with forming up as "BH/Full Lunar, my fee my essence". In 1x I flip them for 3 mil only to recoup the cost of running another BH and collecting other lunar mats to craft with. >.< I suppose I do it backwards from what others are doing but meh. During 2x its a profit off of the essences, which I still sell for... 3 mil.

    I honestly have no clue why EoO's go so cheap. considering the 5:1 ratio of cannies to raps - and the fact you only *need* one weapon vs 6 armor pieces -- the EoO's should be 5-6x the value of an EoD, placing it 15-20 mil. A Fulll WS takes more competent players than your run of the mill lunar run with a barb and seeker.

    Lunar is easy really, especially if you're already wearing nirvy gears or rank 8/9. It can still be done with tt90/99 golds and lunar greens. I have been running on cleric with +4 lunar green armors sharded with perfect garnets/cits and a +6 Fate Denial. OTOH, if I get asked to run a full WS, I'm going to need someone to assist me on fire, and finding DDs that can actually solo and aren't all sins is becoming hard to do now that 2x is over.

    It isnt just Lunar that's suffering IMO. BUT.. I still can't manage to sell my EoO for a measly 4 mil only.

    The absolutely amazing part is how many people are doing I pay the open fee, but I get the two essences of defense at the end of lunar and people are aparently dumb enough to trade the 10 mill worth of drops for the 3 mill open fee...LMAO

    Simple. People ran Warsong NON STOP after NW was added, giving a LOT of EoO's to the economy....an overflow. Have you noticed people not running lunar so much, only WS? Because WS has a 2 mirage fee vs lunar's 3m fee, and WS has all mold drops.

    This. Everyone jumped on the Warsong bandwagon causing over saturation for an essence that, frankly, isn't even as needed as EoD.

    Meanwhile people avoid lunar like the plague, few run the whole thing, and yet people still need essence of defense for their armors.

    If there weren't people who are dumb/ignorant enough to be willing to be taken advantage of there would be no merchants ingame. Just because you want to have your cake and eat it too doesn't mean the person willing to take advantage of that is greedy.

    And that's a general you. Not to you specifically, guy above me.

    If the opener is not greedy he/she would split the 2nd essence.

    The greedy one is you. The opener should get the essences for paying the WHOLE 3m fee. Why do you expect a share of anything in such a case? Because you helped kill mobs? Because you used crabs/herbs? Because your charm ticked? If you want the essences so bad pay the fee yourself and claim them.

    If that's your logic of things, then the barbarians should always get the EoO in warsong for tanking and taking the most damage or clerics should always get more share of drops from a dungeon for being the main life saver, aka dumb logic.

    If the squad isn't greedy then they'd split the cost of opening and the rewards instead of having one person pay for the whole thing and expecting a split of the profits after when they ditch the opener after getting what they needed anyways.

    See how easily that "greed" argument can be turned around?

    I seriously like to know... when is the last time barbs in general took the "most damage" in anything.

    I have let idiots walk away from the ess of off for free before. Generally speaking... its the most worthless member of the group that ask for it for free. It is worth 500k (lost of potential coins) to not have to hear trash whine anymore.

    If you can get five people willing to defend pavilions, do a full warsong, and let you take both essences, go for it.

    ... but good luck finding that.

    This. I don't see it being any different than when people used to give the subber all the mirages when people farmed TT. More than just that drops from there. I don't get how it's greedy to expect all the extra profit when you incurred all the extra costs. Or when people give the winer all the valuable drops. Especially when wine was easily only worht a like a fifth of the potential profit. If you want a share of the extra profit, then pay your fair share of the costs.
