Pharos Sirius / Duty Roulette

[Reslon]

As Calyanare mentioned, you have to pretty much follow the mechanics, specially since 9 out of 10 times you have two DPS in ilvl 80+ gear for a dungeon tuned to ilvl 50-60 gear. This means your only push the phases so fast the mechanics are stacking up(To many rage stacks on Zu and your healer gets stunned, to many adds in any of the fights and it's gonna turn to a wipe specially in the first boss with the debuff). But of course people that generally clear 4-5 turns of coil and the Extremes just think they can faceroll through a ilvl 50 dungeon without difficult(because honestly you can faceroll all the other ilvl 50 dungeons). Since Pharos doesn't follow that logic, people don't like to run it. Which is a shame, because I actually like it. My easiest runs on the dungeons were always with people close to the ilvl of the dungeon. Since then you're not DPSing the bosses to quick, and you have more time to react to the mechanics of the fight.

i never get pharao on DR, i love this dungeon, its pretty challenging, people fears pharao because they dont have the skill to finish it, they like easy stuff, i dont like SE nerfing the dungeons and i am a casual player, and pharao is the best dungeon for me, and people avoid it, lame

Even though people do have a tendency to leave at least I get to listen to that amazing music for a bit while I wait. Seriously, why combat music, just let the dungeon music play? ;p

i agree with u, they should leave that music, i was like, the first time i did pharao, OMG the music is amazing, this dungeon rules just because the music, then, battle music, I was like :/

Wait why is this dungeon hard on tanks? I've inly dive it a few times but it felt the same as anything else. Build aoe threat, help pewpew adds?

What does the first boss do that makes him hard?


Maybe I just don't see it since I've been full 90 since the dungeon came our and my hp just out classes the threat posed?


I suspect that may be it as I don't actually know what is supposed to happen on zu boss we just kind zeroed it and healed through it. Maybe someone could explain the real strat?

People should not join roulette unless they are prepared to play any dungeon it may send them to. You only deserve the roulette bonus for doing a roulette, not being selective about which dungeon you want.

Noticing that whenever I get this as my daily roulette people automatically drop even before the first pull.

I just complained to SE about this very thing. My suggestion to them is that if a player uses roulette and then leaves the group hanging, then they should lose their daily mythos bonus... It's the only way to prevent people from dropping. And it's generally the freakin' tank, because he/she knows that they can instantly get right back into a dungeon.

The difficulty of the dungeon is irrelevant... I don't think it's that hard, but I do suppose that it sucks to pull a first timer or someone who is severely under-geared. I would say to implement some sort of iLvl thing into duty roulette... but people would abuse it. We would have to find a way to prevent people from purposely under-gearing to pull an easier dungeon...

A FC mate was having this issue yesterday (though on even more dungeons than just Pharos). Dungeon starts and tank immediately drops without a word. It's silly to do, but at the same time I feel like maybe the gap is too wide for the available dungeons..? I've been grouped up with a few players that might have had trouble on AK, but we were in Copperbell HM so they just did little damage and died a lot. If Brayflox HM, Ruins of Amdapor and [I forget what the other new HM will be] are on the same roulette It's gonna be painful. Of course, they could always set the minimum ilvl somewhere reasonable so people don't feel like there's no way their group can win just form seeing their hp.

It's really not that hard...

It's mostly just derp dps that don't listen to what you tell them.

I just farm CT for my Myth to supplement whatever I get from Coil.
