Wow just did a run to Droks and with the new update it got so much harder, the firsts parts are harder cause there imps on begining avicara and now ice golems use deep freeze and pinesoules use their traps and more mobs

. Snake didnt change same as usual i think prices are gonna go up at runs.

Somehow, the proffesional runners are still making it.

I paid a guild mate into a run to Drok's, and it cost 2k. The most expensive runner I saw wanted 3.5k

Considering the difficulty and the nature of the service, I'd say that's a fair price, really. I make around 5k in a day just running around killing things randomly. No hard hit for me.

I like it. gives the entrepeneurs a tougher job, makes their runs worth something.

Somehow... somehow they're still making it.

The ice imps are really tough, btw...

while u run, pls stop by at voice of grenth at Lornas pass [near portal to drougnaout] and statue of dwayna in case to get dwayna blessing .. it cost u 50g and also reduce ur Dp [if u have] by paying her 100g / 2% DP

hey. i love the word impossible. right now, the list expands.

its impossible to monk solo uw.
its impossible to run droknar's.
its impossible to kill new charr with only 4 characters.
its impossible to sell my gold items.

care to add to the list? or perhaps you didnt catch the sarcasm.

Alcaza Bedabra · Sep 10, 2005, 06:28 AM // 06:28

It's impossible to land men on the moon.
It's impossible for the Mongols to breach the Wall.
It's impossible to split the atom.
It's farking incredible how the runners are still able to run to Drok's...

conker · Sep 10, 2005, 06:28 AM // 06:28

impossible to fly up to the moon without any tools... and for u imaginary people (i meant impossible for a normal man not super people lol)

Alcaza Bedabra · Sep 10, 2005, 06:34 AM // 06:34

Well, to be fair, he did say almost impossible.

The runner I observed took three tries before getting over the Pass.

Mandy Memory · Sep 10, 2005, 07:53 AM // 07:53

I made it fine, but then again...most runners dont use the dime a dozen builds they used too

get one of those new runs, the ones that stop at war camp

Wow wow wow, you PAID a GUILD MATE. Sounds like you have afew asshats in your guild.

D.E.V.i.A.N.C.E · Sep 10, 2005, 07:55 AM // 07:55

what happened the the Charr? that makes them impossable

Sniper22 · Sep 10, 2005, 02:02 PM // 14:02

I almost made it with my Mo/W, i think with smite hex i can make it into dreadnoughts, i just past the last group of golems, i had 40 and and i was bleeding, i casted healing signet, but WAIT! i got poisioned! Then i died. I'm still working on making it, holy viel is my replacement for vital blessing. Damn ice golems hex me with deep freeze, ice imps just look like teddy bears now. But smite hex only has a 1 sec activation compared to 2, so i can get rid of that and run

That's what I thought when I first read it too. Guild-mates exchanging money for any other reason than that the one receiving the money is in desperate need seems... strange to me.

I doubt ANet would intentionally make the run impossible since they basically condone running in general.

Its the "The Last Day Dawns" quest you get from the Vision of Glint in Droknars.

Noobs fail to realize that if you bring a E/N That specializes in the use of Wards and Wells, you can easily beat that quest, Or you can use a Ranger with traps, since all the mobs move towards you.

NeXuS8 · Sep 10, 2005, 03:01 PM // 15:01

Yea i made it im a pro runer always made it the first part just got me outta guard(Tried 2 times

) now the easy part is Snake Talus outside of beacons is hard....

Orbberius · Sep 10, 2005, 03:30 PM // 15:30

Running is possibly the most (only?

) enjoyable thing in PvE. I'm glad ArenaNet doesn't want to outright stop it. Making it hard but not impossible only adds to the fun.

This one would be possible if people would just reduce their prices back down to something closer to when the game started.

Remember when Black Dye costed 4K and we thought that was alot of money?

Warskull · Sep 10, 2005, 04:55 PM // 16:55

Arena.net very intentionally made running more difficult. Triggering the respawn points now requires you to be much closer and the enemies chase far longer.

Black dye used to go for 200 gold back when I started....

and that made people mad...overpriced they said. Oh to be back in those days...

Andy_M · Sep 10, 2005, 06:58 PM // 18:58

I guess those Ice Imps had to go somewhere now their chest-guarding services are no longer needed just outside of Marhans...

First off, when black dye cost 200G a really good gold drop was like 3G. Apples and oranges I'm afraid.

Secondly, there are lots of people who seriously believe there never HAS been a man on the moon. If you listen to them they have a better arguement than the alien retards to, so who am I to say they can't be right?

Now for the quote above. The best part of this game USED to be racing to the imbue quest. They nerfed that and now it's impossible to find guys to race. Sure the quest works a bit more like what Anet wanted, but the race was by far the best PvE experience going. I got beat by an Ele once, oh the shame...
