First time in Halnir, the first mob we fought took the tank out with Ravage. I was the healer and the insane amount of damage done made me think we had no chance in Halnir, but the tank read through the damage log, saw what happened, and we were fine after that. Ravage is no joke.
I like your videos, but just a little feedback. You never actually explain what ravage does. eg "A channeled frontal AOE cone melee attack that hits multiple times over a few seconds." I wouldn't make the assumption that someone watching your video already knows how it works.
@CurlyCross Specific enemy types have it. Besides the one in the video I've (So far) only seen a few spider types that have it. Stalkers in avp have it. They were actually the reason I learned about this mechanic, because my group kept dying to it lol
Its a frontal cone attack, and when the mob is channeling it, the mob itself is rooted in both its movement and direction, so dodging is essentially stepping to the side of the mob, or (my personal tactic) run through the mob to their backside
Is 2 hours per day enough to play this game? Or are dungeons too long? Like even if you have 1 or 2 wipes is 2 hours still enough time to finish a dungeon?
You will not finish Halnir in 2 hours, as in doing it front to end. But that is not intended, since mobs get much higher level later in the dungeon. I think you can skip a lot of the front mobs later at higher levels when you return.
@@arthaxunleashedOhh, what is the wizard stun named? Lvl 14 ATM but looked through all the skills but didn't notice any stuns..we do have an intrerupt though

Definitely. I had to elaborate for a group of folks so I decided to make a quick little video. Hope it helps folks.

Good call, thank you for the feedback I appreciate it.
actually thank you for this had no idea.
edit: also, do all enemies have ravage? or just these ravagers?
@CurlyCross only the ravagers in here have this mechanic but I plan on covering others as well. Things like phobia, waylay, heartstopper etc.

Oh also it's not necessarily called "ravage", for the avp stalkers it's called something like "tarsal flurry"
I think I got this one book marked so I can watch it a couple more times. Great video man keep them up.
Never thought we'd need this kind of tutorial but here we are.
People in my groups can't even figure out how to not break mez, and immediately DoT every add that gets pulled. Drives me insane.
@@BoomerElite4u Must be painful. I guess it's wow players ? 😂
The one that gets me is the aoe fear at manor even after getting hit by it repeatedly the casters side from me fail to outrange it
Phobia is coming too ;)
This likely saved me a death or 4 in the future. Thanks lol.
That's on DPS not getting out of the way. They should know to be behind boss in most circumstances
True, they should know. However if something like a nuke steals aggro etc. Its beneficial for folks to know how to dodge outta the way.
Blood moon forever
When you say dodge you mean it's a static cone ability that can be avoided? Is there a cast time or it's channeled?
It a channeled frontal cone.

It can be a grind for sure. But the design at 1.0 should be meaningful progress in a 2-3 hour window.

Is the only cue the mobs cast bar ?
Yes he paused and does several swipes as it's channeled.
Wizard's knockdown?
A few classes like Wizard have knockdowns (stun). Silence will not work because its an ability and not a spell.
@@arthaxunleashedOhh, what is the wizard stun named? Lvl 14 ATM but looked through all the skills but didn't notice any stuns..we do have an intrerupt though
It's a combo of abilities. Frostfoot > Snowball will stun and knockdown. Interrupts it fine.
@@Torqethedork ohh, have frost foot but no snowball. What are the unlock requirements?
Hey what stats do you focus on for your DL??
I went INT heavy, with Dark Myr. Then mixing in DEX/CON/STA/AGI in that order. But I am theorycrafting and testing constantly.
@arthaxunleashed how's your tanking ability??
I don’t even know what’s going on
The mob is using a channeled frontal AoE that is a tank buster and will kill anyone that doesnt dodge.
@ thanks 🙏🏼
