Announcement Defeat The Undefeatable - May Edition!

I appreciate that this event provides a relaitvely Easy way to get pw cores, though. Will be doing it as much as I can as I try to build up resources in anticipation of becoming a herald set mech.

 

Best event I have done in a long time. Some things that make this event one of the best is,
1. You can get parallel world uniques and cores
2. The amount of draken in this event is very nice
3. The bosses are fun and balanced
4. The rewards are nice, nice epic mount and some other very nice rewards
5. This event is nice in groups

The main thing I do not like is only the nerfed peridot, I was excited I could finally get one but was disappointed when its been nerfed and the drop rate has been drastically nerfed.

 

Buy teleport items directly to boss cost 250 andermants, not 9 fragments.

The big problem is key of defeat.
Why we got always 2 keys /except in normal)?
In all previous edition we can get 2 keys in painful, 3 in excruciating and 4 in fatal.
Now it have no sense to fight in higher difficulty than painful.
Why I must consume more essences, time to get same rewards?

 

And yet another Gotcha from the devs... Lesser Peridots cost the same amount of gold to remove from slots and combine as a Cut Peridot. Yeah, it's only a few gold but c'mon devs get it together

Luck be with ye,
Mikey,

Lesser peridot and not even a guaranteed drop when spending those 10 keys...great

 

The horror...

Previously you could get multiple drops from the chests, now you get only one drop of either: essences, draken, pet part, cloak, or flawed gems... haven't seen a single drop of gold yet.
That's a nerf not an improvement.
I only get the same pet part from the bosses (medusa eyes, heredur plain doll, bear collar...). I got all the parts for the arachna pet, but I already got it on the previous event .
We can't even craft mutant pets... Medusa part+bearach part+heredur part+arachna part= mutant pet with -1% armor and res on bosses+100 CHR+20 DMG+2 resource points.

 

I'm quite happy with the current version of the event; I'm one of those that never had the chance to get any of the pets (the only one I got was the arackna doll which I deleted because was a slot wasted in my inventory and now I'm in need to get another one for my collection) so it's very good I can collect all of them at once.
I'm really happy the bosses themselves can drop the parts as well and I actually got a lot of parts from them (so far 9/10 of the parts collected so far came from the bosses and the only one I got from chestes came from a golden chest). If it wasn't for this improvement it wouldn't have been possible for me to collect the pets.

The drops are indeed pretty good, I'm farming in mod 2 & 3 and they are perfectly in line with PW bosses therefor I'm getting a lot of gliph and decent amount of gold (more gliphs than gold because exos and legs are basically good for gliphs, not so much for gold, but this mostly matter of personal preference).
It' also a very good source of infernal passage fragments, I'm farming a good chunk because I was almost out of them and the idea to buy infernal passages with andermants wasn't sweet at all (the other event in which I had the chance to farm those was the DDE).

The only pain is when you face Kahlis with a party that doesn't know how to fight her... and this happens basically ALWAYS.
She's the only boss where a tank isn't usefull and very few know how to fight because everyone is used to the tank & spank routine which formed lazy players. This leads me to think there should be more bosses like that (maybe with better telegraph because, actually Khalis doesn't have any telegraph on her special moves and this is pretty unfair) so player gets more used to use their brain and strech a bit more their reflexes.

The bad part is: the chests drop rates.
This is actually way worse than the previus version. In the past events you could get only 1 cut peridot (I don't think anyone has ever found more than one peridot in the golden chests) now you won't got even that because they drop the brand new ubernerfed lesser cut peridot (you need 3 of them to get the former peridot).
I understand that with the new runes slots you can use more peridots than before (since they slot in the gloves and not in the cloack) but this doesn't explain why the nerf... the peridot was so rare that noone could think it was OP or too easy to be gotten. For the rest, things aren't that bad, the drakens drop rate seems pretty the same and this is the only thing I need from those chest other than the peridots and the pets parts.

Now my only question is: can the bosses drop any unique set item? I haven't eard anyone saying they dropped em. It wouldn't matter that much but... would me lead to try some mod 4 instead of totaly ignoring it as I'm doing right now.

EDIT
I've dropped a cut peridot (not lesser) from my 3rd golden chest so they can be still dropped. This makes me think that even the drops in the chests are somehow very interesting.

 

Yes they are dropping.

 

I can't see any Jewel of Rage in the progress bar...

I've received the necklace from herald, so i guess they drop uniques..

 

Hi team,

Just wanted to point out a typo. You have to go to Portugal to finish the run (7).

Thank you very much Sulayman ! It has been corrected. Please , by all means if you spot issues like that in future - let us know - we really appreciate your help

kind regards

 

I don't know where to post this but, since you are looking for suggestion to improve the guide I think this must be noted:

Teleport items cost to World Boss (normal or PW version) (each teleport costs 9 Realm Fragments!)
Normal: 1 Teleport
Painful: 2 Teleports
Excruciating: 3 Teleports
Fatal: 4 Teleports
Infernal I: 5 Teleports OR 8 Fragment of Infernal Passage

Actually what's written above doesn't make much sense to me:
- the fragments of the infernal passage needed to access in infernal I is 80 (not 8 as listed)
- you need 5 teleports AND 80 infernal passage fragments (not OR)
- you can't access to any world boss with the teleports bought with realm fragments (you can access to the circus and, from that, to the PW boss but AFAIK you can't bypass the first stage of the map).

If you are referring to a specific function I didn't notice (i.E. a passage opened to get directly to the second stage of the map) pls let me note it.

 

i need one more baerach pet part and from the other pets i have 2 parts for each, if u enter other difficulty than normal u can get tier 1,2 or 3 from the cloak in the chests? cuz i got th cloack but the stats are lower than i expected i have 2 lines of 1% faster attack speed on it and one of critical rate i think, how much is the max speed on it?

 

Possible enchantments for cloak and their approximate maximum values for item level 55 are:

• %Critical rating, max 4.11%
• %Block rating, max 6.16%
• %Attack speed, max 6.16%

 

The pet drops from bosses is a nice thing.
Seems to be plenty of lower end gem drops.

Other than that, it is a typical grind event with no exciting rewards for the progress.

 

What happened to the gold drops from the victory chests? We could get from 5 gold to 80 or so before...now we get hmm..few silvers at most? Its a good event overall, good drop for drakens (and we need tons of these for runes), gems, legendaries.

 

At the dailies i have got to kill arachna and i got the quest from heredur. Not a biggie but just sayin. Btw why the normal bosses dont count in the dailies. They are not normal enough? Same lvl normal difficulty..

 

i opened 1 golden chest with 10 keys and i got 2 peridots and some coins

 

Hello there ,Saved_81, well spotted indeed - 'OR' has been changed for 'AND' - thanks again for your help.

 

Hey guys, what will happen with the maps that we will have left at the end of the event? Will we be able to play them after the event is over or we will have to wait for next event before being able to do that?
