I recall Medusa being particularly nasty at that level, though I can't remember the exact mechanics. Besides title, there was no reason to bother with the kings. Organizing it for such little reward (literally just the title) was a lot of work! At least with stuff like Odin, there were drops worth having that had people doing Odin already anyway. You can solo them now, but back then, you needed a proper alliance of 12+ people. And the Alexandrite, of course, thanks to Ambuscade, but that part was always just a gil gate anyway.Īnother bit that was hard back then was getting the beastman king titles (Gurfurlur and such). I think the ZNM part is the only part that got significantly easier. Assaults, Nyzul, and Einherjar are just as time-consuming. You don't need as many people, but the effort is still almost the same. It was a lot of work back then, but surprisingly, it's really not much less work these days. I admit to a bit of schadenfreude at the bans happening, given how hard I'd worked to complete mine legitimately (including 7 Salvage runs a week in my static group). ![]() That's the biggest thing I remember about the initial mythic rush, the alexandrite duping and the bans that went with it as people rushed to be the first. It wasn't even the first mythic in my LS, but the guy who finished first (a Burtgang) got banned shortly after along with half my LS because they'd been duping alexandrite to finish so fast. ![]() I had the first Yagrush on Asura, but it wasn't the first mythic on Asura. So, my question for the old school players is what are some of the crazy insane things you recall having to do to complete this content or the effort some had to go through to get one of these weapons? Did you know anyone that got one or who the server first was to get it? I've heard WoW call old legendaries a guild effort, but these weapons seem like they would be more of a server effort practically. This is only what I could think off the top of my head. (Whoo!) As I finished it up and looked over everything I did to get it, it got me thinking, how much harder it was to acquire one of these back when ToAU was current content.īesides us being 99 with 119 gear, I can't imagine how ludicrous it was before all the buffs/needs, pre-fast travel HPs and books. So, last night I finished up my first mythic weapon quest and started on trials. Check out the new 1-119 guide on BG Wiki. Coming from FFXIV? Check out our FFXIV->FFXI page.
