As my linkshell & friends and others from Selbina server were prepping for the Good King Moogle Mog battle we noticed a LARGE amount of players (50\60) idling at the gate. Being, curious we waited to see what was up. Suddenly they walked and attack one of the Guardians! They had about 20/25 DoL players spamming the Wrist Flick ability to chain stun the tree while the other members of the LS dps with spell, weapons, and combos (this proved hard to do).

The amount of time it used to kill this NM was about 40/50 minutes.

This was quite the fun event and I'm glad I was able to take part in getting revenge against those annoying trees!



The LS that started this event was Fantasy Quest. We were just along for the ride.

Sorry for the sub par quality, I mistakenly had Afterburner recording at 1/2 frame.


I believe this is the game's engine at the limits with all settings on/highest, because several players and the Grove NMs would disappears often even if you were to move just little bit away. Weapon Effects would also not appear from some players.

Also check out my FPS, down to an embarrassing low 15/18 FPS while recording. lol

I think the real question here is... did it drop anything?

If it's not rewarding, no one bothers, thus nothing to do. =/

This is amazing, I was wondering if this was doable back when it first came out.

Bravo

I am surprised you could even find that many people to help you kill it. Well done

If they resorted to doing something like that... this game is clearly dry on content. XD

If poor SE has to play catch-up on content people will get bored of this MMO quick. (har... if they haven't already... har)

I don't think the game is dry on content it more comes down to is the content worth doing. For example Darkhold is still fun but all the gear sucks so no one does it any more.

First thing I thought when I read that you killed it was, "I bet it doesn't even have a loot pool." And I'm going to guess that's true, since they aren't intended to be killed.

Cool feat, nonetheless. Congrats on killing it. lol

indeed congrats on the win, but we are running low on the content pool. we need 1.21 soon. Also with the server merger it will make the servers feel more full.

Also out to Xeonerable if you dont switch servers i shall see you after the merge!

The tree may not have dropped anything but imagine all the wood those carpenters got when the grand tree was finally felled. (All innuendo fully intentional.)
