Endgame Progression, Elitism and You

[Pyretta_Blaze]

Thank you OP. Everything you say is what I have been telling fresh 50s who suddenly are confused as to why things like AK and Garuda HM are suddenly kicking their butts.

Also, OP never said you needed darklight for AK, and you don't. But basically if you make it through the storyline and run WP a few times you should probably have the Tomestones for "a couple of darklight" accessories anyway. For me the neck, bracelet and ring were my 3 lowest pieces of gear at around that point. The difference in my dmg output was noticeable and I can compare AK runs before and after and things go down much faster now.

Heck just running AK on my WHM the runs are fun and enjoyable when people are a little more geared up and not every boss fight is an "oh crap!" by-the-skin-of-our-teeth win.

One more thing, derping around in places we have no business being in is a fun way to play but I don't go in with that mentality if anyone in your party is really intending to quick win. I've gone on "test runs" or just wanted to see inside the instance and mess around but I don't do it when my FC wants fast runs.
