You had a flawed strategy. Grab a bunch of pugs and have no plan or thoughts as to what to try next just beat your head against the wall so that means that someone else can't come up with an actual strategy. Like mapping the phase puzzles and try hanging on the edge of the asteroid puzzle. It is clear that they mapped those phase puzzles and have a pre-set route with the other person serving as a stop marker.. There is no communication between the two - latency my but... Again my server sucks bunch of lazy....I did hear there was a group on my server that may have beaten the raid 10 times or so, but they never advertised and don't care to apparently..

Anyway, is the current version of the abbot raid supposed to have rest and resurrection shrines upon completion, or is that in development?

If this is legit, it's really a great job, irrespective of how good their connection is. I bow to their determination and perseverance in conquering a retardedly hard raid that nearly everyone else gave up on.

This means Turbine can say we told you it was possible! and then fix it for the rest of us.

You should put that one in the OP.

It's good they got loot too!

Indago beat the abbot 4 times before the nerf/fix, and not one of us got a single piece of raid loot.

Forgot....

Gratz! Great job!

Seems we need to catch up....

There we go. That is all.

. Now congrats to these uber players. Nerf the raid for the rest of us!

**Mockduck** · 01-17-2008, 04:54 PM

Nice and awesome! That is all.

**liamfrancais** · 01-17-2008, 05:02 PM

Grats to all who have done this. I want to know why some of the names are in english and some in Japanese are these english speakers playing in japan or what personally it would make game play alot tougher for me if some of the dialog was in Japanese and not all english.

**Twerpp** · 01-17-2008, 05:05 PM

Wow great job. That is one very dedicated group.

So, if you know, did the group actually use this "cheesy" tactic on the asteroid room to complete the raid? I sure hope not. If so, they still get credit for doing a pretty amazing thing, but less credit than they'd get if they didn't use this kind of cheesy tactic, possible exploit.

Congratz... /salute

If I am in combat and some enemy combatant is dropping mortar rounds on me I will hide in a secure spot, exploit or tactical way to keep self alive you decide. Running abbot tonight on sarlona.

Yeah... keep in mind that a lot of "US" groups are composed of people from the other side of the planet...

Here's the thing on the Abbott: I don't doubt that I could create a team that could beat the quest... on a LAN.

Yeah, it's definitely a "gray" issue. What do I know? Just curious is all.

**akla_thornfist** · 01-17-2008, 05:50 PM

thats some dedication there, props to all in that group i wonder how many runs it took for 1 completion and if they will have the patience to try again.

With comments like that, I'm thinking maybe the server might improve if you went to a different one?

**Hence** · 01-17-2008, 06:40 PM

How easy does that look? Very easy. The tile puzzle you just run in a straight line... now I've never even attempted to zone into the Abbot raid, but that is easy. Im all over it now, tonight I will kill Mentau in the pre-raid and complete the Abbot. A pug can do this if everyone of them has watched these videos. (Good luck on that, I know) But now that the strategies are revealed...

I really can't believe they posted the astroids video... that will change.
