Trial of Terrors Event Feedback

Didnt do any math, just been timing how long I spend in the gate. Of course, just a few prometheus lasers will not cut it. U need to be fully decked out, in lasers, boosters, modules, seprom, dronedesign- and formation. With around 40%+ shield pen u will cut thru the shield on sibs completely. Also need level 16 in all lasers and drones, aswell as the 5% dmg Neptune launcher. Idk which server u play on but if youre on PvE global u can add me ill help you out

 

well i just got what is most probably the worthless reward anyone can get from the tot or anyplace else , "watching you sprays" that is like pretty much flipping ya off. they were added a few years ago have no value in the game what so ever, no one uses them they just take up space. who's bright ideal was this anyway? it needs to be removed from the game or made so we can sell them off.

 

I'm doing it on my noob ACC with 21 proms and, the rest are mixed lf4 ( hyper, magma, party) with an Orcus and a 14% penetration on a yellow mod. double booster with sep, x4, and rsb, it takes about 30 min, it doesn't have anything fully upgraded yet either because I rarely play outside of maybe a decent event. They should be reducing the amount of Uber sibs, most do not give you boxes and they are a drag.

 

I do not know how far along you are with your account, however, I have many years playing this game and have stayed on top of new things for the most part.

In this gate, I am full Prometheus lasers on drones and full Prometheus lasers on the ship for which I am using the Solace Plus which I do have a 15% damage module for npc. I am also using the spartan drone design which gives more damage boost.

Add to that the npc damage boosters, you can get from ubers or purchase in the shop, and normal single and double damage boosters.

I exclusively use the laser ammo RB-214 (x4 damage) as demaner freighter event is no longer a thing but we still get the ammo in large quantities in ToT so you will always be able to obtain more RB-214 from this gate than what you will use doing this gate with this ammo the more you progress, so box doubler for this event is a good idea for collecting those red boxes and let your PET collect them with salvage protocols on.

I tend to use drill drone formation mostly, but moth will make short work of normal aliens and some bosses, with my overall damage then I can do uber sibs quite quick too anyway with drill or moth, but people using orcus will be able to do the gate faster than I with the 1.75 boost it gives to modules on damage and penetration.

On the "big wave" of melters I am sabbing the uber sibs, moving around and letting the npc nuke deal with the melters while maybe getting in a couple of kami's.

Lag may be an issue for you due to many reasons, the ToT gate itself (aliens in a wave) combined with your laptop/desktop being low spec. I would avoid playing this game on a desktop or laptop that is 12+ years old or just low spec in general as your frames per second will be very low!

Looking over your comment, you sound like you do have a very long way to go in being able to do the gate as quickly and easily as some of us who have had our accounts going back to 2011, or in some cases, people who joined the game in 2008/09 and are still playing and have stayed on top of most things.

There's not many of us, but there are still those of us who do not cheat, we have higher standards in values and morals than those who do cheat, we just put the time and effort in to build our accounts, and because of everything that has been unnecessarily added over recent years, it now takes longer for new players to get within reach of where players like I am currently at especially if they do not play much anyway.

 

"oh it can be done in 30~20 minutes trust me, prometheus from quests help"
"um no akshually u need to be full lv11+ prometheus and 40% shield pen in order to two tap a uber kristallon even though they have 2m health"

you guys haven't tried to do this gate with a bunch of SLL2 and a enforcer with 3 flaxes, that is what actually noob accounts or new players go on about and the gate takes over an hour to do even using X4 and RSB with the UBR that drops especially since they lack moth, unity server currently gives diminisher for the shield damage but you still need to corner a bunch of aliens that have a lot of health and have the same attack range as the player not to mention 10~20.000 dmg which means the two free B02 won't help tank much, auctions are irrelevant currently, items cost over 100.000.000 credits and clans of people that could help are already full

this is why the gate takes long and your responses are so out of touch it's not even funny, @Seraphim suggested a harder version of the gate and i fully agree with him, nerf and change the current roster of aliens for X-4 and buff their stats and rewards for X-5 as a "harder" gate so that the weaker version can be completed by the example i gave above, although i was using a BB-solemn which means less lasers so my damage wasn't that higher and my speed wasn't fast for the ufonits because you know... leveling quests.

oh and a enforcer with full LF-3 and 8 irises still takes a considerable amount of time too because of drone upgrade being level 0 and no havocs, something you might miss when equipping LF3's on your ships in order to "finish the gate faster with a noob config", bastion doesn't help much because 2 B02's melt in the non-weakened uber kristallon wave with one shot

 

Of course I understand this. Not trying to argue here, was just giving friendly advice as he said he's been playing for a decade and still hit like a noob. Never said anything that you are quoting there. Not sure why you are making things up, but you clearly have misunderstood my input lol.

 

Disappointing to see that bp have not extended the event given that I like many others could not play for 5 days due to issues they created.

I had to make time to be able to do this gate twice per day on three occasions, and if I had been able to play over the 5 days of the server issues, I will have been able to complete the 1,700 curc objective.

Now the nonsense Empyrian Bot Event is running... yawn...
