Trophy Trios: the Three-Box Challenge

And only 7 spells the balls on this dwarf!

 

Drudger's solo kill of wuoshi inspired me, sure as hell didnt try it solo though. Self buff bst/bst/dru as usual.

 

Nice to see non-Bard kills.

 

I also appreciate when people upload videos where their gameplay isn't "picture perfect." Watching you say %$@^ it when the initial engage went a little sideways, and then a few more times when slow didn't want to land, made it all the more enjoyable to watch. Grats!

 

Did Gorenaire solo on druid:

Now that we have some similar top-end gearing, I'm curious how the "solo druid kills dragon" parses here will compare to on AK, in terms of seeing if caster ac/avoidance is up to par or not.

 

I think Gorenaire has a bit more mana here than he did on AK:

So on AK it was about... 4 Reckoning nukes, 1 Annul (which he casts on himself to remove debuffs?), some spell he tries to cast for 12 seconds that gets interrupted (???? Group CH maybe???)... then 2 CHs and 2 Spot heals and he was done for the rest of the fight.

Whereas on TAKP I needed to proc 6 ToTs on him. Also he casts Judgement instead of Reckoning, Annul on his target instead of on himself, and he got 1 CH off still with that mana drain and all those nukes

Perhaps I wasn't aggressive enough though. My AK fight I just chain nuked him down, here I tried to let him DS to death but that didn't seem a great strategy, will have to try again with chain nuking and see how many CHs he gets off.

 

wild how those two gore kills are 5 days apart besides the years difference

 

Our first Time VZ kill on TAKP was 10 years exactly from our first Time VZ wipe on AK. Thought that was pretty cool!

 

I don't have any cool screenshots but so far my two proudest solo kills (trio) in PoP would be:
- pop, pull and kill trap nameds in PoEarthA (frog, tree, living earth)
- a prismatic recluse in PoAir (zoning in fresh from entrance and not doing any corpse dragging or summons)

looking for some more ideas of stuff to try.

 

A couple of new kills under the belt:






Maestro. Never again. My hands hurt so much after this one.

 

This thread could use a PoP update. Some ideas:

Gryme the Crypt Guardian in PoD
Aramin the Spider Guardian in PoD
Prototypes in PoI
Junk Beast in PoI
Vhaskiz the Shade in PoN
Hobgoblin rings in PoN
Aid Eino escort in PoN
Mujaki the Devourer in PoN
Untel'Dak in PoN
Storm lords in PoS
The Sleepwalker in PoV



For you, I'd suggest Innoruuk. Not sure anyone's done it with a trio yet. Gryme would be another cool one to pull off.

 

There's a ring event in the bee tree in Storms. It's not particularly interesting or challenging, but might be a fun (long) trio?

BoT tower lords are obvious candidates.

Honestly, a lot of pre-PoP raid content is probably 3boxable now.

 

not sure if this is feasible since you only have 2 weeks of time between server resets

 

nice kills Taelor!

I kited a bunch of BoT elementals the other day. would like to add that as a solo bard,

 

Another one for the books:

Faydedar (non-triggered) in TD


Worst spot for a screenshot, but the deed is done.

 

Impressive!

 

Trioed, or soloed?

 

Solo kill! I can't box well enough to do anything noteworthy with a trio

 

but you are making bards proud! we are leet

 

I like the vintage fashionquest too. "Use the kunark epic to kill the kunark dragon". Very nice touch!

 

Says the first person to three boxes zlandicar.

 

Wow so much bad luck at the end, did you ever go back and try again?

 

Managed to trio water tower boss today on my 3rd real attempt. First 2 I got him to 18%..

Hardest part of the fight was spawning the elements for pets. Secured the kill by having a 3rd pet on reserve.

My characters are: Enc enc cleric - all severely under geared and <50 AA

Credit goes to Kattaonic for providing tower click up and druid buffs.

 

nice one! definitely a pain without Malosinia

 

I'm sure a lot of people have done this one by now, but I trio'd Execution Trial yesterday. War/bst/clr.

 

hahaha! Much love! Congrats man.

 

on a lark, gonna try to get all 4 tower bosses. did eindride a while back, forgot to get a screenshot, but got this one today:

 

Really not fair though. The only thing dude could think about was the shoes.
