Is there any info on Tackle to be used for the crab? I was thinking of assigning a small team to deal with that while we take care of Briareus' Key items.

for those who go in with an alliance and fight various NM, do you find it difficult to deal with the tp moves of the mobs. I feel like sending melee on them is a bad idea in any situation. What has worked for us in most cases is kiting with DOT and nukes, having melee fight to the side and WS when they have tp?

what is your experience with these NM?

Depends on the NM. If you have a full alliance on an NM with really shitty AOE moves, you'll probably just wipe. But if it has single target or conal moves, then it's the NM that's gonna die fast.

Was this before or after the maintenance? We did a run night before maint with 18 ppl, went in with 3 stones and stayed for 5 hours. Got BLM frmo 10k into 79 to capped exp at 80 and 5 merits, and over 40k cruor. We went in again straight after maint though, largely asme setup, with 120 mins on the clock, and we only got 1 time extension the whole time. Chests were very lacking in general. We got maybe 3 exp 3 cruor and 1 time chest the whole time. The rest where hp =/
Same thing hapened with another group that was in with us.

If you get lucky with the TE boxes, it's possible. Takes a lot of luck though.

Bad way. They were saying that the rate of chest drops in their alliance dropped dramatically, and they got hardly any time extensions.

Like I said in a previous post, right now it's all based on luck (because the TE box triggers is unknown though there is speculation). There are folks before the update that would only get one TE or none with a full alliance at the same camps as the folks geting 6 hours worth of TEs.

as before killing the scull head things, at the top of the 90 minutes and straight killing, no pops, chests were every other and giving 200-1000 cruor
90 minutes of killing mandies and pop nm 4 times, we had to kill 10-15 minutes to start getting chests again after each nm kill. and even then, HP chests, temp item chests, and scrolls. so i very much believe its kill speed, amount, pressure, total of same mob killed, and type of mob... all of the above are playing rolls.
btw i have never gotten a TE chest

Well thinking about the difference between my first run(5 hours with millions of time chests) and my second (120 mins with only 1 time chest), in my first pt, we were very melee heavy, with probably 90% of the kills coming from melee or ws. In the second we had a few more BLM and mages in general. So kill speed was slower, plus there was alot more magic kills. Could be to do with keeping a consistent kill type, or speed of killing. I know its been suggested already but just adding for more "proof".
