Great Gus! We need at least 100 more like you. I mean, dungeon school; 1 expert player leading the non-experts in voice chat, a good healer and that's it. Sure, it takes time, that's the leader's sacrifice, but that's why people love you. I have a non-BIS Hellbringer and I'm no expert, so almost no one takes me. Plus I don't even have time to play these days, but I hope I get to catch you in game sometime when you host for noobs like me. Thanks and keep up the great work!
You're so kind for saying this;) but really, I don't do this as much as I should. As kids get older, my ability to play lessens. Hopefully the vids help others since I can't join as much as I would like to.
"don't do what I do and stand in the red"....gotta get that last hit in though :D Seriously though, this is good stuff. Well done guys and great commentary Gus!
I've seen a guy in Pe saying Mdwp needs 3 cws. Im like 100k hr now, and he told me the second boss would be too hard if i came. The problem is a lot of misinformation being put out there, so thanks for having videos like this. Good for the community
I just did all achievements in MDWP this last week, we did have 1 CW but that's just the class a friend played but surely that's proof you don't need 3 of them 😂
I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure that's one of the feats, that if you switch stance you'll get more power out of the next move if you do it within a certain amount of time? When I changed my load out for max damage based on Aragon's vid it took me a while to make it second nature to switch my stance before the next one
I don't think it is the gear, some people take longer to gear up but in exchange take more time learning about their class and know how to do content without the help of better gear, they also focus more on getting better artis and mounts and companions, which do help more. Since the change to the scorpion it is easier to do it with any class, but before it was really a struggle to deal with the snake and avoiding killing the sscorpion, thus the need of a wizard to hold both or even a 2nd tank to aggro the snake, as a devout it's not easy but doable to push the snake and let the dps deal with the first boss, but it al comes down to know your class, i've seen 90k + IL classes deal amazing damage but couldn't or didn't know how to push/daze/stunt the snake, didn't even knew they could.
Youre...absolutely right and not wrong at all. From my own experiences, asking for exp, hdps, etc never pays off. IL doesn't seem to give a good representation of ability nor does EXP. But it's better than nothing for sure.
@@gusarcher5446 I usually host ADM for this reason, I know well the mechs and I feel confident to not mess up, even if is harder to find 2 tanks for ADM than to arrange a full group for AIC. In AIC I'm not that expert, I run only the normal one, so I don't feel so confident to host it! If I will see you arranging it with some alt I will join the group for sure trying to apply what I learned from your videos! 😁 (Ah I'm Oronzo, the one who contacted you some days ago asking if you accept even low IL players)
I guess I shouldn't be so afraid to run advanced content. I have performance anxiety and don't want people to have to carry me. I still haven't done mtos because I haven't memorized the mechanics for the whole thing yet .
Oh man this is great, this is the exact opposite of random advanced que, last night a friend of mine and I almost failed a lom as tank and healer, 98k barb 95 k ranger 95 k ranger. None of them killed their mimics, all three of them touch the fleshlight all three died at the end tank and healer first and second in DMG. Unfortunately this is easily repeatable. Stop inviting people based on their item level alone it doesn't matter
Fun fact, James is one of those people asking 80k+ il ONLY 🤣 for simple stuff like Arena. He was kicked from my old alliance. Thought he'd left the game, but he showed up in new alliance about a week ago & guess what, he's been kicked again, since he can't stop picking fights & being rude to people. James thought people remembered him for his giveaways, he also thinks he can beat 90k+ people & that rusted boots are bis 😂😂😂 Dude is so delusional it's hella funny.
I get what your are saying but that run took 46 minutes, Nobody wants to spend 46 minutes in there when we can get 2 done in that time with a 85k group🤷♂️🤷♂️
Ofc, I don't have time for 46 minute runs either since I have to do 271x AIC runs. But, I also suspect it's not normal for a team to have all players be 60k IL with 2 brand new players either which explains the time.
ok Gus, most of the time i agree with you but now i´m not try the Dungeon AIC with Random players, not your friends your group make it saw really easy but t´s not, the dungeon is easy if you have a Decent group that really know what to do, BUT when you enter on a group o new players that they dont know mechanics is a Complete Faild at 1st Boss players ask for Hdps, Exp and CW because they want to finished as soon as possible, most players dont want to spend more then 1 hour in the dungeon, they ask Hpds, Exp and Cw so the dungeon became more easy now what i´m really hate about this dungeon is the REALLY DROP SYSTEM that REALLY SUCKS, the Rng is very bad, from more then 50 complete runs i have ONLY have drop from 1st boss in like 3 times, and from 2nd boss we get 2 times, saddly in all does drops i have only get 2 items even if i need play with diferent players the drops are at the very botton and when it drops something ALL players use the need o green to try to get it, so many tiems i finished and i really dont get any gear that i need I REALLY HOPE THEY MAKE A BIG CHANGE AND MAKE IT LIKW MDWP wheren any player have a chance to get a drop and not get 1 single drop for ALL the group dont really know why they decide to make it this way, but IT´S REALLY REALLY BAD
That's a fair point if everyone is completely unfamiliar with the dungeon. In this run 1 of the players had never been in there and another only had 3 completes I think, it was my first run in there on the Warlock healer as well 🤔
You seem like a very nice guy, I wish you were on Xbox; but the toxic community on Xbox would probably drive you away. I’m 89k IL and I still get ignored all because I don’t have the perfect weapons since they never drop for me.
Unfortunately I don't get to host as often as I want. But yeah, thats a stinker you have a hard time getting in the dungeon. It's much easier than players make it out to be.
Hosters want completes, I get it. But the amount of time/trouble being spent on grouping (and still wiping) just looks painful. This dungeon isn't as hard as people are making it out to be.
Lmao, IT's Sabin. You know as well as I do the PS players are brain dead and literally cant figure out mechanics for save their life. It is beyond them, this is why they need 100k for advance. Most players don't even know how to do their progression. I just ask that they watch a tutorial. I ran with three 85k dps and they refuses to use their artifacts and it took us like 40 mins to run advance because i just keep them alive. This game is inf easier than ff14.
This place is a complete hellhole on PC. First, you probably have a MUCH better player base on this platform. Most people on PC don't know how to use text chat feature let alone voice. Even with 85+k group atic takes 45mins or more; and for no rewards. The place is bugged completely up the a**. Getting hit by mobs that are on the other side of the screen, blown up by mechanics that are 20+feet away, debuff warnings that don't go off or are incorrect. I had an mtic last week where none of my wizard's spells except the mount power worked. Nothing, I ran around in circles while the group 4 manned it. Another time the weapon didn't drop from Emperor. Similarly I've not seen a single drop of gear from the first 2 bosses on any difficulty since release. This place is the worst designed dungeon in the game so far to put on top of a completely asinine module.
To be fair, this run went incredibly smooth. But many runs are shitshows. Very similar to what you described. Crazy that you couldn't attack. That's horrible. Ty for the insights;)

If you want more people like him, become a person like him! Thats the only way if we want to actually change something
Was tough getting the item level down 😅 great job by everyone!
Merri, you rock ty.
Thank you for this video gus. Hope it will help stopping all these stupid request while hosting. Many thanks!
I hope so too
"don't do what I do and stand in the red"....gotta get that last hit in though :D
Seriously though, this is good stuff. Well done guys and great commentary Gus!
Ty antman!
OMG thank you good sir thank you so much
You're very welcome:)
Nicely done and that cw cw cry in pe all the time also about that ilevel all it takes for the group is synergy in daily, mount and artifact!
I had to do a similar stream for moon dancer because it too was getting out of control with hosting. Hopefully this helps the issue a bit.
I've seen a guy in Pe saying Mdwp needs 3 cws. Im like 100k hr now, and he told me the second boss would be too hard if i came. The problem is a lot of misinformation being put out there, so thanks for having videos like this. Good for the community
I really appreciate this, ty!
HRs are great for second boss MDWP with all those roots 🤔
@@Merrilow I did mdwp easily with 3 barbs as dps. I mean you dont need much control if there is nothing to control right?
I just did all achievements in MDWP this last week, we did have 1 CW but that's just the class a friend played but surely that's proof you don't need 3 of them 😂
@@ericfrolov148 that's good going 😄 it's not the most melee friendly dungeon with all those tight mechanics 🙂

You're right! But I do it much too often. Way more than neccessary.
@@gusarcher5446 gotcha lol
At what time do you usually run these (with timezone)?
Heya Gast. The times are everywhere and all over the place. Anywhere between 9am and 10 pm pacifi.
It's only tricky if the group doesn't communicate.
I play in the UK, so my groups always can't/don't communicate
Very true;)

Great video.... it's hard for me to find groups for AIC, I'm a 69k ranger and noone wants me 😢
That's why you host it! Nobody would ever pick up my alts either. But fills up fairly fast when I host.

All Dragon hunt gear, Blaspheme weapons and Mythaller set. Can I go on the next run?
Sure thing. Holla at me in chat.

What a great testimony, ty!
Its been extremely easy from day 1 but mostly post mod 16.
idk what it is if i watch you aragon north and rider then i just open the game and check stuff, sometimes its so worth sometimes its just like this
That is so nice to say, ty:)

So you can confirm I took the very first who asked to join the run!
@@gusarcher5446 Indeed, i don't know of any people that wanna run with James. Only people clueless to who James is would wanna run anything with him.
😅@@svendemadsen8275
what does cw mean?
Stands for Control Wizard which is now known as just Wizard but still quicker to type cw in guild/alliance/zone chat.
Waiting for need 1 HR AIC/MIC to cc snake 😂
Lego! Sorry you couldn't make it buddy. May the aggro go to someone else today.
i really disliked the whole wildspace crap ...AD bleeding the player base, and crap rewards ...
Count me in as full agreement with you;)
65k? Seriously? Turuk is 65k
I get what your are saying but that run took 46 minutes, Nobody wants to spend 46 minutes in there when we can get 2 done in that time with a 85k group🤷♂️🤷♂️

ok Gus, most of the time i agree with you but now i´m not
try the Dungeon AIC with Random players, not your friends
your group make it saw really easy but t´s not, the dungeon is easy if you have a Decent group that really know what to do, BUT when you enter on a group o new players that they dont know mechanics is a Complete Faild at 1st Boss
players ask for Hdps, Exp and CW because they want to finished as soon as possible, most players dont want to spend more then 1 hour in the dungeon, they ask Hpds, Exp and Cw so the dungeon became more easy
now what i´m really hate about this dungeon is the REALLY DROP SYSTEM that REALLY SUCKS, the Rng is very bad, from more then 50 complete runs i have ONLY have drop from 1st boss in like 3 times, and from 2nd boss we get 2 times, saddly in all does drops i have only get 2 items even if i need play with diferent players the drops are at the very botton and when it drops something ALL players use the need o green to try to get it,
so many tiems i finished and i really dont get any gear that i need
I REALLY HOPE THEY MAKE A BIG CHANGE AND MAKE IT LIKW MDWP wheren any player have a chance to get a drop and not get 1 single drop for ALL the group
dont really know why they decide to make it this way, but IT´S REALLY REALLY BAD
That's a fair point if everyone is completely unfamiliar with the dungeon.
In this run 1 of the players had never been in there and another only had 3 completes I think, it was my first run in there on the Warlock healer as well 🤔
I did know the tank and healer but the dps, thats a different story.
And also, ty for being critical. That means a lot and I appreciate that. Gotta look at everything through multiple lenses.

@@gusarcher5446 They barely invite me for mdwp, I don’t dare ask for aic or mic lol. Why don’t you get to host often?
Well nobody wana spent 40 min in atic ;D
I love the groups that are still asking for rap +exp. This game has gone downhill because people just can't let that go as if it were still relevant 😂
Hosters want completes, I get it. But the amount of time/trouble being spent on grouping (and still wiping) just looks painful. This dungeon isn't as hard as people are making it out to be.
There is Nothing wrong with Hosting and asking for Raptor builds with experienced players. Hosts HOST so they can call the shots.
Lmao, IT's Sabin. You know as well as I do the PS players are brain dead and literally cant figure out mechanics for save their life. It is beyond them, this is why they need 100k for advance.

You got me wondering, is knowing how to use artifacts part of the definition of endgame? It's such a hard part of the game for so many.
So here the problem no one wants to run a 46 minute aic.
Nope, not even me. But nobody is running 5 man teams with 2 brand new players all at 60k IL. That was purely to show how easy this dungeon is.
@@gusarcher5446its easy with 60k item lvl if you already know all.mechanic ;D
