What to do to get XP/drops from bosses?

CumeriTarenes · 03-19-2010, 10:35 AM

I was a bit infected by all this hype about boss drops. I saw war banner that Alasthor is about to respawn and went there with my lvl 50 marksman.

I used all my damage spells and high basic shoots on the dragon but did not get any experience or gold...and no drop of course

Is there 10% damage rule at bosses too?

Another question: Beeing in a party has advantage your hit chance/spell focus is higher on target and you do more damage, right?

Yes,when you're in party,mobs level of challenge is lowered e.g. from impossible to hard.

About 10% dmg,if they haven't changed something since may 2009 the answer is no.

I'm guessing you didn't get anything because of horde of conjurers spamming auras. At least that's how it is done here,in Syrtis.

in Syrtis its a joke to kill our dragon, last time i went to kill it, we had like 15 conj's and only around 5 warriors, then there was a few archers. however the conj's stayed away with the archers whilst the warriors, the damage dealers, was left to gain a nice chunk of necro.

Hmm that's about how it seems to be done in Ignis also, now.

Sadly,this is totally true.

Ranged classes have huge advantage over warriors on boss fights.

Probably Conjurer. Basicly- anything except warriors.
