is there actually a "next mission" like it said in that screenshot from liquid steel?

Seef II · Jul 02, 2006, 04:29 AM // 04:29

Nope, boots you back to the monastery. PvE Tombs does the same after every level.

Markaedw · Jul 02, 2006, 04:29 AM // 04:29

Typical for the tombs. Best I ever got was a grape and we wiped before I could retreive it.

50 orbs, my wammo can get 50 in less than an hour.

The lvl 18 were really flamable, I wonder how these guys are.

I think Anet's employees are on drugs or something...titles we can't aquire? Missions that are impossibly hard (or at least LONG) that give crappy rewards compared to others? What is this?

It just dumps you back into the Monastery.

Edit: Damn my slowness!

I'm sure glad i didn't try to do this mission then

Nothing new, not even a new dialogue to make un wonder for a few days... just repeatable 'missions'

Well if its repeatable then this makes sence. You can keep on getting 50 orbs from this. I dont know how long it takes so I cant really say much more.

Kijik Oni Hanryuu · Jul 02, 2006, 04:31 AM // 04:31

guildwiki says that ectos have been reported to drop from the enemies during the mish..

Isaac Lunoa · Jul 02, 2006, 04:31 AM // 04:31

Well, the end prize sucks, but are there any good drops on the way?

ZennZero · Jul 02, 2006, 04:31 AM // 04:31

Note that (again, according to guildwiki) enemies in the area *do* drop ectos...

edit:Kijik beat me to it.

shadowfell · Jul 02, 2006, 04:33 AM // 04:33

Yep, piece of crap quest. 50 orbs wasn't even worth finishing. Until something better comes along, I'll be standing in ring 3.

themickman · Jul 02, 2006, 04:34 AM // 04:34

to think on the optimistic side . . .maybe all of this stupid stuff is building up to something super duper. What if the mini-mission is just part of the storyline that Anet had to include in order to add in a new tombs in the area (this is just an example). Or there will be another mission after this one that they have yet to add in yet, which WILL have greens and better rewards. Now THAT would be worth it.

Why? Why does this deserve a thread of its own? Think there's a reason there isn't a thread for each of those missions out there where all you get is ZOMG 1 skillpoint and 1000xp !!!wtfzor!! (sorry my leetspeak is lacking...)

Don't get me wrong, I like a good whine now and again... I really do.
But this... this piece of garbage of a thread right here... It's just not funny anymore. This is beyond all scope of reason.

One rare... nothing you don't get from a troll run or really any other place with high-level mobs

Kijik Oni Hanryuu · Jul 02, 2006, 04:35 AM // 04:35

this surely has something to do with the TRUE canthans thing, methinks only TRUE canthan would defend their land for nothing, perhaps when kisu comes he rewards for saving his cruddy arse?

THAT HURTS >.<

Well they premiered this at the ass-end of the night.... so I imagine the others will be better.

maybe this was warmup

(btw - beat it)

natuxatu · Jul 02, 2006, 04:36 AM // 04:36

still you can just go other places where they drop ectos so yeah i'm not going to bother with this unless they mention something else after it. I might just enter and die to get a look at the area. 50 orbs doesn't seem worth it but I could care less as I'm not one to complain.

I'm more interested as to what this is all leading up to. but if you have an extra character slot you could pretty much create a new character and get the 240 orbs in the time it would take you to finish this mission by the sounds of it.

Phoenix Arrows · Jul 02, 2006, 04:36 AM // 04:36

Anyone seen an Ecto drop then? Perhaps this is the ToPK equivalent for Canthans, therefore Ectos DO drop? If this is the equivalent this is way crappier in terms of reward and way easier in terms of monsters present and time needed to finish...
