kartia

General Discussion Started Last reply 25 posts
This last update has made them a lot harder to do with in a buff round.

It seams like they took out 3 mobs and doubled the bosses hp has any one else had problams?:mad:

Now takes a extra 10 minutes to kill = more time in side = always full!
its in the patch notes..
Well, to be honest, it isn't that hard for me atleast :/.
its in the patch notes..
But patch notes require reading!

And this is so hard these days, Oh God please no, just not reading.. :D.
Yeah Zellaka has more HP now, but i still find it very easy and doable in one round of buffs. The only thing that prevents me from going afk in autoattack is the stupid fear that Zellaka casts every 2 seconds.
they should've reduce the numbers of mob waves/stage in the first room, not the number of mobs/wave , on my feoh now 87 i got 6-8 minutes left on my bufs when zelaka apears if everything goes well , no way i can kill him in that time.
yeah , i'd like it if the problem is "it need more times" , the problem is "after tauti the freaking istance is always full , ffs!" from tauti i can even try at every hour of the day but it keep saying me that it's full...2 days ago i tried at 5 differents times (8 am - 12 am - 17 pm - 24 pm - 2 am) only at 2 am after a mass-rage-spam i successfully entered ._______. with my othel 91 it take to me 23-24 mins , mobs in the first room are lot less than they was before , about 2-3 waves less , nothing changed at all , less mobs but more raid HP , so the time is pretty the same as it was on pre-tauti ._.

Your just terrible I do kartia as fast as before on my othell
14 mins on buffs when I'm done on lvl 89 othell
there is 2 reasons i DONT do kartia

the HUGE reason is the poison in the first room? whats the point, other than annoy ppl with summons..

the other is that the healer has no group heals and so never heal pets so they die many times in first room and every time they get aggro in 2nd or 3rd..

news flash there are more kartia's then the 85 one, lolspoiler xhaseo is 90+ and when your on the low end of the kartia range it is significantly harder.. I have the same with the 95+ one where it used to be bam done in 20min.. now it takes me the full 30min..
My main problem with Kartia solo is that Zellaka chasing me 80% of the time so Kartia takes 40-45 mins now to kill him (or die if lagg happens)
Why he ignores NPCs most of the time?
He likes my boobs or what?

I do the same time I did in 85 Kartia, in lv 90 one... This doesn't mean other people suck just because I spend less than 30 minutes inside, while others spend more time.

You must be amazingly fast.

My 88 feoh one shots all mobs with aoes, as soon as I can target them.

The first rooms seems to spawn so slow that it always takes 10 minutes to do.

You amazingly do not only first room, but also second room and final boss (that fears you, it never fears me since I dont have to stand near it at all) in only 6 minutes more than it takes me to do the first room.

I'm not gonna call you a liar, since that would be too obvious, but I would love to see a video of how you do it in 16 minutes.
@ Smittie

Maybe his buffs last 40 minutes :rolleyes:
+1 to the Vid, because my Dagger alt will be Othell soon. Gladly watch a pro how-to-do fraps.

The second room is actually pretty quick because you can just rush back to the first room immediately and kill the Dimensional watcher 1 on 1 there (he can't run away when half HP) without the annoyance of the other mobs. Then you don't have to deal with him in the third room.
The first room is annoying though, endless wait.
The third room time just depends upon how much I am chased by the boss, sometimes he barely comes to my direction, or sometimes like yesterday he is always on me.

one thing I like to see when reading threads about kartia blabla: its how people tend to try stand up things by inflating their egos, and they end just being a liar. There's a huge difference in being a pr0 and being a liar - you cant be a pr0 just because you lie, although you can be a pr0 in lying. I guess you're in the second option. gz :o

*sniff sniff* I smell bull**** that or you have some awesome exploit.
Well I can say this much,number 1 gear play a important part, and I agreed that a dagger and archer can finish the instance and have plenty of time left if he landed all his half kill on the first and second room. I'm a lvl 91 archer and I still have over 10min left. What I do is tank him at the corner and just kill.

I agree with this guy, im an archer and i finish with time to spare on buffs as well. I think you guys need to stop giving that dagger a hard time for saying he finished with 14 mins to spare... mabey not exact amount but... people with lethals can get the time cut off alot if they get lucky. (and yes gear does play a part)
It is a little frustrating that they gave Zellaka more HP. He's just as easy as before, he just takes longer. NCSoft just likes to cause us distress. There's no good reason for the change.

I can see the meeting in Korea.

"Hmmm...3% shouldn't take the players only 20 minutes..."

"It should take at least 25." Cheers and drinks.
Gear up please.

Zellaka does not take very long if you have good gear.

I think my Feoh even kills it faster now than before.
As Feoh I can tell mine observations.

Dont know about 85 but in Katria 90 more or less is same as it was.
Mini RB seem to be more resistant to debuffs but not something I can cry.
Change elements gives additional advantage of using Knight
I hit far stronger even having a bit less then 10k mattack but 3 k P def makes me practically not kill-able even if I got some froze.

RB he has more HP but now I hit him in average x2 then I used to.
If I enter Instance just after buffs (instant is full most of time!) I end up with 3-4 safe defenders and whole instant 25 min max 28min if RB is attacking me all the time.

Before .... I had maybe a bit better result but not more than 1 min.
I guess ppl with worse gear can take knight harmony, but I dont really see a point to take anything but Wizard harmony.

You arent supposed to get hit, and you have plenty of skills to avoid getting hit.

Not to mention mobs are 1 or 2 shots with aoe skills....
After a week of testing.
I see no change whatsoever the amount Zelleka chases me. There is no annoying fear that sends the group to the wall and let them stuck there for a while, but he drops the party all the time and chases me all the same.

The dimensional watcher seems to be easier, the rest of the mobs were and are still one (maybe one and a half shot).
Well, because of the Zelleka HP, it now takes me 2 or 3 minutes more to finish it. Not a big deal though.
