DM Chance

[CAUDA]

Balance: Fights felt pretty nice! One or two curve balls to keep us on our toes for difficulty, and considering that there was death. The Mechanics, which I will come back to later, also felt like very nice ways of evening the playing field! The fight before the last MAY have been quite a bit difficult, with a few autohits and -DR hits that targetted a few people, but overall it was very nice. 9/10

Balance: Chance runs ECs in an interesting manner, running attack patterns which are fairly avoidable if you can catch onto them. The power stat of the ECs was fairly high however leading to some downs which might've felt cheap for the victims, but for an event of this magnitude and risk level it turned out well enough. It is absolutely miraculous that only 1 person died; the amount of 2s I saw rolled (where a 1 would result in death) was staggering. My only gripe is the one EC not run by Chance was throwing autohits around...

Normally I don't reply but this irked me.

That wasn't an EC, it was a PC (Lykon) put on the stats of an EC (similar to 1v5 events in the past). Unfortunately there were 13 people on this event and you guys took 8+ hours exploring prior so I assume a big boss battle was the only feasible option. The first round had the issue of agility being so high, some spells spam-fired, so I talked with the DM and he nerfed it down.


This was the original bar I planned out but the DM wanted it to include less immunities, and more AOEs to make it fairer (while also changing it to a boss battle).

If you like, we can do a redo! A series of 1v1 chainverbs, dangerous 6s like I personally suggested (with my character's original stats of course). 
You guys can even keep the invulnerability spells the DM handed out to the tanks... (who decided not to taunt Lykon ICly unlike certain others.)


... You know, I originally was very impressed with how you guys handled this PVE event. I didn't mind waiting all day/night to die, and thought you guys earned what you received, but seeing these responses now makes me wish I never accepted the invite to join it.

For transparency, I will not reveal the crazy rewards given but I do think that these posts are coming off a little entitled and... kind of unnecessarily mean given all of the uniques dropped from the character that died as well as the IC closure and implications of thumping Atrellya in the face (PVE and PVP wise). I'm sure 2 of the other 100+ players interested would have been happy to take your place.

As for my rating for the event. A Chance event classic, 10/10, the narrative and lore explored was super interesting and the character interactions on the event were lovely to watch and participate with.
