Cataclysm weapons: SEVEN WEEKS!?

[JamieRose]

Neither is ruby ex. That fight practically gives weapons away.

An opinion that can only come from someone who has never pugged an EX.

Ive pugged ruby ex. Fight is easy, just use your eyes and most mechanics sort themselves out if you can run out of bad

So did I. Currently 8/10 PUG's for Ruby Ex fail horrible due to people messing up the easiest mechanics. Farming Ruby is more annoying then farming Hades ever was ...

Just standard pf luck then, i farmed out my 10 clears in about 3 hours then never went back, we're on the same DC too so its just standard luck

Really? I thought Hades was the most unfairly-designed DPS check I've ever seen in the game. I never had to try so hard in order to clear something. On my first clear, we played it perfectly and still only cleared it with a couple of seconds left before enrage, even though we played that last phase perfectly with no deaths or debuffs.

Compare that to Ruby Weapon, where you can have multiple deaths during the first phase and still just power through to the next one, and kill it before even the first Outrage. The fight is a lot more forgiving, not to mention mechanically easier and less stressful. Especially because you don't go back to the very start if you die during the second phase. lol

see, that here is why parsers being forbidden is such an issue, no offense here god knows who was underperforming for you guys, but compared to most savage fights at least hades enrage might aswell be nonexistent. Mind you the enrage on ruby really falls into the realm of "if you managed to reach this point you either wiped your way through the fight or i just don't want to know", like heck that thing is lenient.

lol "I have garbage luck with parties, so clearly you've never pugged before" is always my favorite argument.

i got well over 80 kills of ruby weapon in an attempt to get all of the tank weapons + the mount.

The fight does give weapons away, its one of the easiest mid-expansion ex trials....ever, if i'm being honest. I cant think of another fight that has as few mechanics as P2, or has a checkpoint half way through, at this difficulty level.
If you're having problems ALL THE TIME, its not the pugs fault.
