I can only take spam regarding no teleporter being activated so many times before I want to hurt someone. Even though there's A FREAKING MESSAGE THAT SAYS WHEN IT ACTIVATES! CAN'T YOU WAIT 20 SECONDS FOR IT!?
I don't have a teleporter to the first boss in dungeons when we wipe in regular dungeons, and usually that's a LONGER walk!
Seriously, it's not that far of a walk, you lazy bastards.
Remove the teleporter before the first trash in CT/ST

There will always be atleast one player so lazy that they make a sloth look like a marathon athlete.
That said i do wonder why we need a chat message telling THE ENTIRE ALLIANCE that the teleporter isnt activated.
Couldnt they just limited that to each individual player that tries to use it? -

Staying behind to use the first teleport instead of simply running with the group should teleport the person back out of the dungeon and into another queue.

The bigger question here is with all this Allagan technology why do we still have to take the stairs?
-

A better question is why they're not made for giant people. We've all seen Glasya, Amon and Xande. They're enormous! They'd trip on those stairs, probably.

Remove the teleporter: no
Remove the message that gets spammed to everyone for no conceivable reason: very yes -
12-08-2014, 03:58 PMKewitt
Better yet, Just have the 1st teleport active when we zone in.

Also, either remove the trash mobs or give them interesting mechanics. Unlike the ones in Labyrinth of the Ancients, they have no mechanics and only serve to be a time consuming unfun roadblock >:U
-
12-08-2014, 06:47 PMFynlarI don't think people want to deal with "mechanics" just for trash because then you will certainly get groups that struggle with it, and there's nothing that makes party members be all like "WELP cya @_@" than getting hung up on a fight that doesn't even reward anything.Quote:

Case in point: Atomos. It's literally just trash mobs one at a time, yet I'm sure anyone who's ran that instance a fair number of times ran into a group that somehow managed to struggle getting past him.
I think Syrcus trash was specifically designed NOT to be complicated in any sort of way because of exactly this reason. -
12-08-2014, 07:53 PMNestamaWhich is incredibly silly, in my opinion. Even casual players get bored of "gather up + AoE = win".Quote:

Go activate the teleporter for me. :p -

It would be funny to have using the teleporter before a warp is active cause all the skill and spell sound effects heard by the offending player change to a clip of a vuvuzela until they log out.
-
12-08-2014, 08:12 PMSqua11_Leonhart
don't remove the teleporter
Don't activate the teleporter until the first trash mob is down. -
12-08-2014, 08:35 PMFynlarPersonally, I'd rather take this than have more instances of groups getting stuck on things like Atomos.Quote:

I make a separate log for ST that hides that message and combat spam. Try it. Just remember to swap back to your usual one afterwards~

Is seriously people annoyed by this? Because then I'll have to....
*Run away*
*Hide close to the teleporter* -
12-09-2014, 01:51 AMSummerRiderThat boss is a mystery to me, it's like he has some "confuse players the first time they see me spell". My track record for that boss is always wipe on the first attempt, and then walk through it the 2nd try. I've only ever played it as a healer. To top it off there usually isn't any talk about "ok we messed this up, let's try this, or this". It's wipe. Respawn. Run back to boss. Kill boss.Quote:

More like: remove the annoying message!
The Teleporter better stay or it takes much longer until all 24 people are the battle arena.
I dont think they would like to walk the whole way to Amon or the final boss after a wipe from the tower entrance. -

Which is a shame. Because I loved the trash mobs in Labyrinth of the Ancients (Vassago especially). They had mechanics that were present in one way or another found within boss fights.
Poisonous water in trash section and Bone Dragon.
Pads during Atomos (if less than four on pads, then other team can not attack Atomos), Magic Pots during Thanatos (if a pot dies, then one team will never become a ghost).
Bombs during Vassago. Bombs during King Behemoth.
Pads from Atomos and King Behemoth's Meteor were the tutorial for Phlegethon's Ancient Flare.
Syrcus Tower trash teaches the player nothing of what to expect, as they're just Brayflox HM trash mobs. -

The mentality? Players think Atomos is a dps race, when its not. It's a add control encounter. 2 teams can ignore atomos while 1 team kills their atomos, allowing the next team to step off their pad and put more focus on atomos, and repeat for team 3
Not rocket science, just a manner of fitting shaped blocks into their respective holes. -

You don't have to remind me of how Atomos works. All I'm saying is that it is a testament to what Syrcus could have been like if they made the trash packs in any way remotely difficult or mechanics-based, and is why I'm incredibly thankful that they didn't.
