First, let me say that I hate bozja with the sort of burning passion normally reserved for only the most heinous of crimes. If the place could be razed to the ground I would open a champaign bottle on the crater.
Second, I've previously managed to clear this cursed place on 5 people, just allocating 2 Tanks on bottom and 2DPS on top with a Healer, we did perfectly fine, managed to protect the Tunnel Armor marginally well but the boss died before it became an issue.
And I have failed on 3 people before while trying to solo bot and leaving the other 2 top, we failed because there wasn't enough bodies to soak the Tunnel Armor. So I've come to the conclusion that 5 people would be sort of like the bottom cap and it just becomes insultingly impossible under that.
But now I've FAILED with 8 people, because we organized 3 down bot, 2 Tanks and a Healer, while everyone else went top. We failed to kill the Helldiver before the Tunnel Armor got destroyed. Then we were doing fine going an even 4-4 split and we ran out of time.
What's my point? I've got no point. I mean, maybe "I hate Bozja" is a point? Sure, let's go with that. I hate this cursed place and I would happily drop another meteor on it. Twice.
Managed to clear Castrum on 5 people, but not on 8.

And... Right after I typed that, I think the server caught on fire? We got a LOT of people disconnecting from Castrum, me included.
Is... Is my hatred that powerful? What powers have I wrought? -

How do you do lyon on less than 9?
If he doesn't have a full 8 up there, he grabs more, right?
And if birb is left alone, it's a wipe, right? -
08-31-2021, 04:26 PMReiganCrossNo, the birb can be left alone just fine and Lyons can be wiped out almost before Taste of Blood with strong enough Echo.Quote:

And finally I get yet ANOTHER Castrum with only 2 people, we got in as 2 DPS and we couldn't kill the bosses before the Tunnel Armor just died out. That's my 3rd Castrum lost in a row, for 3 completely different reasons.
Did I mention I absolutely want to burn this place and everyone in it to the ground yet? At first I loved this, and the feeling of being in a Warzone and all, at first I was all roses having banter with Lyons and having fun with our Gerolt... But now?... Now I just want to die. -

And last try, I get literally a LONE castrum... All by myself... I just wanted the clear before the week reset...
4 failed Castrums in a row.
I hate Bozja so fucking much... -

Do you prefer Eureka?

09-03-2021, 04:38 PMRokkuEkkusuWait, are you using Castrum as a way to get weekly tomes or something? There are stuff like hunts, daily roulettes, level 80 dungeons, Critical Engagements. People barely run Castrum unless they need a clear for their weekly quest, more experience/mettle, and/or Deep Essences.Quote:

Sound like you are either going for the Castrum achievement or you are farming for Deep Essences for Duels/future Bozja runs. You are seeming burning yourself out to the seventh hell for trivial reasons. -

Which means that my only recourse left is clearing CLL... Time and again... Without end... Until I FINALLY can get my hands on that Hoverbike. Because if I don't do that now, I'll need something like a Bozja Discord or some other sort of nuisance just to get it.
