Beat you by an hour

 

Lol peeps, still the first to do these things ehh?

 

Congratz, but you've got nothing to prove.

OTOH, would be very nice and very helpful to post the wave details. Even just from memory, not exactly.
Like how hard it is compared to other standard and event gates.


Thanks in advance.

 

It's the hardest gate by a long shot, I would put it on level with the very first time people did Delta round 9 on the old client, fitting to the Halloween theme, it was considered a complete nightmare to complete




There's 72 waves in total, so it's very hard to remember all of them, but will give a overall description of the theme.

It starts of easy, just lordakia and saimons, then its a power creep from then onwards into devs, sibs, boss lordakia, boss saimons and so on. Eventually you will get to Siblonits and Uber Sibelon, then Boss Silbolnits and eventually Uber Sibolnits, which will be accompanied by Uber Lordakium. Then you've probably guess what's next, sks, bks, usk, ubk.

One you've met your first UBK I would guess you are about 30% complete in terms of time, the gate then changes and starts spitting out UFONIT, they are 3 or 4 kamikaze to kill and give 32 uridium reward, along side them are Melters from Zeta GG. This theme carries on with more UFONIT and Melters with the numbers growing and the Melters getting stronger. The GG will then ditch the UFONIT and bring out something like 30 Melters with 3 devourers, you can kamikaze these but you NEED a big shield, they hit 300-400k together. The uridium is very good from this wave, 20k~.

The wave after this (wave 60 now) is very ... interesting ^^. The GG will spawn 30~ UBK and 1 Devourer, full panic mode. Turns out the UBK are similar to BK strength, same with the Devourer. You are guaranteed a booster every time one of the NPC in this wave died, so it's very nice.

The gate will then just give you a mess of USK, Udevs, Usibs, Usibolnits, some lordakia that seem as strong as BBK, overall its just a jumble of stuff with some surprises.

Then you will get to what is without a doubt the hardest wave of the gate. 20~ Uber Siblonis, 20~ Uber Sibelon, 1 Uber Lordakium, 1 Uber BK and ... 1 {{{ ::: UFO ::: }}} - this guy has a casual 10mil HP and 10mil shield, however it's only hitting 5k. The sad part is it only gives 2k uridum.
When you are on this wave, leave the Uber Sibelon until last. If you can kill everything that is in the corners before you start shooting the Uber Sibelon. If you lag or lose concentration for just a small amount of time these Uber Sibelon will easily kill you.

At this point you only have round 9 to complete then you are done with the gate, you face off against 1 demon drone NPC and 1 struener, then you are done.


By the time you have finished you will have gained about 85k - 90k uridium from NPC.


Edit: German FAQ has the NPC list, towards the bottom of the post.

what type of ammo did you use?

 

I used x4 and SAB. Not sure how much ammo was used up though but I think it was around 170k x4.

 

Ouch... i only have x2..

 

Thank you very much for your efforts writing the elaborate description of the gate, and for the corresponding NPC list in the german FAQ. I really appreciate it. One more question, though...

Can you leave the gate between the waves or do you have to complete everything in one go?


Once again, thanks in advance.

 

It is a very, very long and the hardest gate there is ( i don't know how they expect non-fe's to complete it).

 

i will probably only finish this gate once, then just complete it half way and kil myself 10 times to get the reset

 

i get to map 8 kill the uber BKs for the rank boost then lay it down the uber sib stage takes toooooo long and the lagg spikes make it a very hard wave to complete


bisphenol there are 9 maps that have about 6 to 9 waves in each map but at the end of each map you can choose between 2 portals the one on the right will take you to your one map the one on left will take you to next map in gate you can also die at any time and when you jump back in gate you start off where you left off on same wave if you had 20 melters to kill and only killed 10 before you died the 10 you killed stay dead and you just got the 10 to kill when you go back only 10 lives now so cant rely on this now

 

tbh its not that hard for basic fe ppl to complete it, it just takes time and patience, i did it x1 and kami on basic fe twice, but took about 9 hours each time(across 2 days not 1 lol)

 

if you dont have it already the ring formation make all the difference in the world with the gate i can sit w8 for npc to surround kami and fly off to heal for all waves except the uber sib wave on map 8

 

i swear i did not think about that lol, i will try it thnx

 

Thanks, I just wanted to know if there is a standard "break" opportunity between waves like in the other gates, because P.E.T. gate had to be done at once, no intermediate portal to stop and continue with the gate later.

 

yeah you can take breaks after you wipe out the waves in each map every map just take the right portal

 

There's another thing I wanted to try, but was unsure about consequences. The last Uber Sibelon of the wave 25 started running into corner and it was quite late, time to sign off and going to bed so I didn't feel like doing 2 more Uber Sibelons and 10 Sibelonits.
Since the NPC ran into corner, I was tempted to close the tab and log off, then continue the next day. My ship would be quite safe, unless something I didn't take into account would happen, perhaps during server reset so I used x4 and UBR rockets to finish that wave quickly.

But if this "NPC in the corner break" is safe, it could help with long waves especially at later maps/waves. Just leave the last NPC in the corner...

Does something like this work?

 

as far as i know only what you kill will be safe to say you wont have to kill again. i know if you send a bunch to corner and then die without killing they full hp and shields next you do gate

 

But the last NPC would be in the corner while my ship would be in the center of the map. And I won't die, just close the tab.

It happened once that I was in a gate and unannounced server reset message popped up. That looked like I would die, so I tried to fly away and be as far as possible from the swarm at the moment I lost connection. After that I was quite frenzy trying to establish connection and when I finally succeeded, the wave started over from the position where it was interrupted.

So I don't think the last NPC in the corner would gain full hp, only full shields. But of course, I'm not sure.
