I think this should be moved to suggestion box ?
I would like if they fixed this it would lower sky covered price.

This is not a suggestion thread b:pleased.

Still no response on the powers to be whether there is any lie they can feed us regarding pq 3 fix, or the truth f:fan

I gave up the delta cause to get coins back even though the response was amazing, simply because not many people are interested in delta in the current environment of the game. PQ 3 how ever, is a different beast.

I've already done what you've described in bold and never had an issue getting reward by simply leaving the quest alone. I'm not sure how you're managing to still not get the reward. Perhaps a video from you instead might work better so we can see how you are doing it.

Hey roxxi, good luck trying to get me to record a video b:surrender. Only reason bm survives the boss is due to aps, bp. If either is not there, bm is dead due to lag.

I will try it again on the weekend and do it your way and see it things work out or not. Last time it did not when i read your first post.

So stop complaining, start farming

I love that the Ring has become rare, so individuals that Organise PQ Runs can actually make some cash now.

Especially love the part that makes it hard for certain ppl to abuse multiclient, stealing all rank 1 spots with 5-6 of their alts.

new PQ > old PQ

PQ ring price only dipped for a few months to the 40~70m mark on sanctuary. Beside that they have always been 100m+ item.

People did not farm pq before like posters here suggest, they will not farm pq now as i suggest. Such is the way of pwi.

I did an earlier calculations on farming pq vs cube. If someone is after money, cube is a better instance to run.

Only downside if pq is fixed, the price of the ring falls. That is not a bad thing in my opinion, but hey players like to say "my ring costs 400m b:cool", yet they still die b:sad.

I will just say that THIS right here...is the reason it should be considered broken and needs to be fixed. This shouldn't be the kind of quality to expect from a game, or from something that used to be way easier to do.

+1 TZoner. I agree with that. Raging tide area by default is laggy for people. People forget quickly how often they used to crash when they ported to rt during 2x for vana runs. If you get a lag spike, there is very little chance of you getting the reward (high ping, and it takes you 3~5 seconds to see things move). To me that is not a "intended fix", that is broken. Imagine if the same applied for all the quests. You finish bh, and you need to hurry back to npc in 30 seconds to get reward. Can you imagine the QQ over that? Without a teleport stone, or a psy summoun, no one will make it, even than it is touch and go.

It takes me 30 minutes to do the pq run solo. longest stage is 200 mobs = 8 minutes. Boss = 15~20 minutes. Rest die quick enough. If i get help from faction, boss dies in 5 minutes or less. Do remember to take the quest when you kill the 30 mobs before the boss. Those mobs give considerable contribution. In case another sin joins in, you will get first place. It sucks super bad, when you do all of pq 3, and someone comes along, and gets 6 crystals and you get 3.

My sin is 5 aps, 6.5k hp, +7 g16 weapon, without buffs, it can not survive. She can not survive the boss attacks either. If your gear is better, ornaments are better, you wouldn't have an issue. The one minute aoe hits for about 7~7.8k hp. Sin has about 8k buffed, and cleric buffs help to.

Boss has a short stun+bleed in his macro, so you take 1~2 hits of 1~2k without any bp returns.

The other issue we have, i have to test it out again, roxxi said she still got the rewards, the quest did not auto fail for me, and i got 0 rewards. That still requires testing on my part.
