Hello Guys, I wanted to share the experience I made running Zakum Solo. Feel free to post your thoughts regarding possibly Soloing Zakum on Phoenix. This was more or less a bruteforced attempt so don't be so harsh with me UwU. Pre: Post: Ultimately decided to abort the run at this point. Timestamps: Arm1 - 8min13s / Arm2 -20:13 / Arm3 - 33:25 / Arm 4 - 41:26 / Arm5 - 57:23 / Arm6 - 58:09 / 5min Pause / Arm7 - 1:19:00 / Arm8 - 1:21:02 Abort on Zak1 after 62 more Minutes and like 60% Progress. Spend the last 30 Minutes of that doing 50% --> 60% and mainly dealing with the spawn. Possibly only gets worse with each Main Body Transformation. Considering I had 25% excess stars to begin with that were not necessary to land on Zakum as inflicted damage. The foreceast / progression rate at that point makes it impossible to reach the finishing line. Respectively I am allowed to have 20% vanished dps and it looks more like I have 85% on body1 already. That results roughly in needing 4x times the stars I did prepare for it (atleast for that part). --> approx. necessary set amount of 130-140 --> error can't carry Potions used: Onyx Apple x5 // Stoppers x 38 // PE x119 // Elix x 175 // ACP x 62 - Strategy for dealing with spawn: If possible avenger the spawn directly bruteforce. If spawn creeps up use disorder / shadow web to free your way Teleport to the right side and lure if necessary. -> Can Help clear the spawn but its overwhelmingly time & star consuming. Thoughts: Knowing the limiting factor are the stars able to be carried following could help: - Ninja Ambush would improve avenger and star efficiency and general uptime. - Shadow Stars makes it a hands check and a goal to work towards (doing possibly a 6h run) in combo with Ninja ambush. Problem indirectly is the damage because that would reduce the necessary stars. But vice versa the damage would be good enough if you have uptime via Ambush & enough stars via Shadow Stars. TT doesn't seem obligatory. Some other concern is the spawn of the stun puppets that can lead to perma stun (if you happen to stand in 50 mobs and they walk to you) and knock you in the body possibly. Had two occasions where I barely survived after being stunned multiple times. Something to look out for. Thoughts on Duo: In Combination with a mobclear definitiv Possible e.g. DK, I/L, F/P, Ranger, Sniper Special Thanks to soda, hwani, nixmar, dog, roy, junH, Thug, Adde & Rome [for helping me get into Zakums Altar / providing stars] Best regards & Happy Mapling tyys edit1: added the used potions - ty to Hwani for recommending edit2: added skills & mechanics used - ty to Roy for recommending

Hello Arnah, with the recent update to ToT and the significant changes to the Gameplay (mules, party exp , HS) it appears to be the correct time to discuss these inherent flawed game structures again. It is obviuos that certain content is simply impossible to farm for certain classes due to sustainability issues. (I can gather data if this is uncertain....) - road of regrest 5 - mob lvl 116 - lvl 14x priest - 420k meso looted - 180 PE Usage [per Hour] - road of regrest 5 - mob lvl 116 -lvl 16x hermit - 394 ice pops - 750k meso looted (having a 34,7% hitrate). adjusted for avoidability of other classes that would lead to a usage of 1021 ice pops, adjusted for alchemist and assuming 1hp = 1 meso, thats a cost of 3,06M / H. The community fixes those issues by simply avoiding the unplayable content and migrating to content that allows a heavy reduction of HP potion usage (C guards, anego, goby, Himes etc.) or just quit the game. In the past due to HB it was sustainable for priests and hemits to essentially grind for free in Skellies. Thats also the reasons those are the only classes that actually bothered to grind there. Melee classes and DKs would simply not grind unless they have a priest or a pocket mules priest. There are different possible solutions to this problem: - trivial solution (revert everything) - stale endgame, i kinda dislike this because that game was just dead - Adding % NLC potions. Since you had the standpoint that you dont want to implement this solution (%pots) I would encourage you to think about this once again. I dont see a valid reason to believe that this would break the game. It would simply allow all classes to finally grind endgame maps without getting entirely butchered to the ground. Considering it costs 4.66k to repot 100% hp or mp and the above stated costs this would not indicate a break of the game. I think loosing the PE / Elix market or having a forced drop of those prices is a reasonable sacrifice to make. On top of that ppl can already sacrifice exp to excel at meso farming. - The solution that appears to be quoted in this post at the top. Adding 4th job. If an adjustment for sustainability is out the window the only other change is to drastically increase the mob killing capabilities (assuming mobs will not drop 5k bags...) to cover for the opportunity cost being hit by the monsters constantly.
