Re: Besieged Update, May 15th

Tonight was pretty laggy. I couldn't see most of the players (They just won't appear on my screen) so while the screens look like there were only 50 ppl doing this, there were more than 350 people from the search results.

Had a beseiged event against the trolls last night on Ramuh. Due to an unlucky death while levelling BST I found myself thrown into Beseiged at level 36, I rarely hit and when I did it was for 0 damage ><

I could have changed job but I wasn't sure if I could get back in if I did, I've d/ced before trying to get in to Al Zabi during beseiged.

It took a while but eventually we won. It was a shallow victory though, both the warp taru and the AH manager were kidnapped from us

OMG, is this really true? If this happened on my server I would definitely try to gather
an army to get those guys back! (how do you get them back? lol)

I set my hp in Whitegate, and I would be really upset if I warped there and had to
ride the boat to get back to Jeuno

Has anyone noticed that the enemies are getting nastier and nastier? I missed a Besieged last might but saw the attack messages. Mamool Ja attack at level *8*...

im guessing you need to raid their headquarters to decrease their numbers

Something to do with Mirrors, how many people are doing Assault and generally reducing their "numbers." I have people doing Meripo on our server there now running chains past #100...

Monster levels has not even exceeded 5 yet...

Re: Besieged Update, May 15th

Wow, great thread! I was about to give up after going to a couple lag fests at besieged. All I could see was the mobs standing by themselves, then they would die and I might see a few people actually hitting them

After hearing of all the improvements, I'm going to have to try again.

Thanks for clearing up one question before I asked it since I was wondering why I got teleported into a different zone one time.

Two things I didn't see on the thread, (sorry if they were there and I missed them)
1. Do you need to have the err, Imperial signet on you to get points?
2. How much does the time vary when you see they are preparing to the time they actually attack?

Thanks for all the great info!

(1) You don't need Imperial Sanction to receive experience points, but you DO need Sanction to receive Imperial Standing from Besieged.

(2) Depends on how diligent players are at (a) taking out any Archaic Mirrors which may be present (b) how often players are winning at Assault and (c) I believe defeating enemies in each specific enemy stronghold also reduces their power level.

I don't think you need Sanction to get IS from Besieged. Mine ran out just as one started on Remora last night, I was gutted but at the end it said my Imperial Standing had increased and my points did seem to have gone up.

I'm certain that you do. I didn't have Sanction up two nights ago and didn't get any IS or any message.

Well, I just tested this. No sanction, participated in Besiged. Got full Imperial Standing for doing so.

A Mamool Ja Sapper was gracious enough this evening to bless me with new sig material.
