You don't honestly think I would give a rats fat *** about the queue if it wasn't affecting money do you?

I see humor is lost on you. Maybe you can configure a bot to farm yourself a funny bone. I getting into sixboxing, and successfully did VD quite a few times - as long killed before Housemaker show up. That's the only real struggle with VD, to fast enough determine which of my alts housemaker is going for, alt-tab and get out of range. Is the exact conditions actually known? Having 0 hate on MB and run far away does for sure not work, this way HM run to group. Might need to either be within range or have some hate on the MB?
1. Possible to manipulate the fight to make HM 100% of the time run to same char? 2. Tips to determine fast AF which char his coming for? (6 second charge time is purely luck with alt-tabbing) Asura.Eiryl said: » rats fat *** Is this a thing? What is this being compared to?

I only got to do 1 normal yesterday and doing barspells on my bard it went after me the one time it did it lol so idk, I just pulled that off the BGwiki page
So there was 2 theories:
1. Person with lowest hate. 2. person doing bar spells. Did some testing yesterday to check them both. DRK just casted poison to get on hate list and GEO was doing barspells and meleeing. All the time Big Momma ran after GEO. So take it from my experience, its person doing barspells it will go after. Which makes it easier to plan ahead if doing melee style. Only issue is whm or anyone else needs to step in for barspells for "run away" window. BTW thanks to my party yesterday who were patient (some not so much) while experimenting. What's the mechanic/theory on WHEN the Housemaker comes over? If the Breadwinner isn't silenced or after a set amount of time?
I did 6 VD runs yesterday melee style (COR COR BRD WHM GEO RUN) and we didn't have the Housemaker come once. Breadwinner was dead in ~3 minutes. I did a N run the day before and she came multiple times. Just not sure what "triggers" her to come in... Bismarck.Indigla said: » VD run in ~3m20s found on youtube.

You will see messages in the log to indicate the failure to call over the Housemaker if Breadwinner is silenced: Carbuncle.Finalwolf said: » silence the breadwinner to prevent the housemaker from being called over. you'll get a pop up message when silence is applied and when it wear off.

There is nothing to translate or some hidden gimmick, it's simply dumb luck that nothing happened. They even failed to do the barspell mechanic early on. Lakshmi.Buukki

You should, yes. Have someone keep an eye out for him running over, and if he does, just give some distance between your front line group and mages. Should be easy to see which person the Housemaker is gonna stomp on, just run away from each other to minimize aoe damage on group. Offline

What job were you on CPU, and was the GEO (unlikely) meleeing as well?

You do not have time to menu-cast. You do not have time to fumble around. You literally have 1-sec on an average NA/EU connection to hit the right barspell after you see the warble element message. Those closer to the server may have a bit more time. 4) Petrify from Stone Meeble Warble is the one that will really *** you over if you miss it, so keep barstonra up between warbles as a safeguard. 5) Count down 30 seconds until the next warble. 6) Keep your camera turned toward the center of the battlefield to watch for the housemaker. If she comes running, you need to get 20' from your party. Paralyna yourself after you get hit. With all this said, barspelling is completely optional. You can full-time barstonra and just esuna everything else off. If somebody can accession/perpetuance Regen V before entering, it really takes the edge off the warble DOTs. Offline

Perhaps it disregards anyone actively engaged to the Breadwinner and only targets those low on hate list but not engaged. Could be worth a test: have everyone engage and see if he still gets called over and who he goes after.

It's not "lowest on the enmity list" it's very much the caster of bars, unless no one is casting bars... then... it's (usually whm) It may very well be whoever cast the most recent buff? (or spell?) or whoever cast the most buffs after aggro. Offline

I feel like it would've gone after the WHM at least once or twice if it was most recent spell. Most recent buff is definitely possible. I'll try to monitor the next time I do it.
100% of the time it goes for the person who is casting bar, doesn't matter what job they are. War/whm brd/whm cor/whm drk/whm. I've never once seen it go after someone else IF someone is casting bars.
When no one is casting bars, it's gone after WHMs BRDs and GEOs, never fully noticed which/why It is whoever last cast a bar spell, Had my mule doing bar spells on brd, cor, and geo and it always targeted her. Didn't see it go after anyone else in 30 runs, if barspeller dies maybe it goes off hate list, maybe last person to heal? but its main target will always be the last person to bar spell.

Been trying to pup burn this but boss seems to petrify/stun puppets through overdrive.
Question is can Cor cast Barstonra at start before encounter would they have to stay in range of boss for it to nullify petrify. Or could they retreat to safety with the PUPs. Or even if barspells prevents Avatars and Puppet from being afflicted by status effects lol. |
