So the Dragon has a ton of health and kicked the hell out of me when I tried to solo.  But I've easily soloed all the other end game bosses (Barrow King, Witch Queen, Other demension lizard volcano thing, ect) except for the Kinslayer.  They all have less hit points than the world/king bosses out in the wild.  Started with a Hardened steal two handed sword, but now I switch between the special polearm you learn to make after defeating the Barrow King, and an Acheronian (or Star metal, does almost same amount of damage) great sword.  Bosses go down within a minute or two of swinging.

The Kinslayer sword is much better, modded for low stamina use it's great for extended fights. Kinslayer has plenty of columns to hide behind/heal when he does his telegraphed aoe, Black Keep is just a mess to navigate

Yeah, I've just never really made an attempt.  I wasn't even max level yet and ran in to get recipies.  Videos scared me off from even trying to fight the Silent Legion, so I just got to his chamber and ran around learning all the silent legion armor recipes. 

I'm all geared and leveled up now.  Guess I should go make the attempt.

You can get into the Black Keep easier by swimming under the ice to the west of the bridge. There's a cavern that comes up about halfway into the dungeon. As for the boss himself, he's slow as shit - just kite him around and you can avoid most of his swings.

Actually I meant the Witch Queen. The world bosses, yeah, they're just long dull slogs. The white tiger is a bit easier.

Just went and killed him.  Lol, for some reason when I was reading about it, I thought the big guy in black was just a pre-boss to the actual kinslayer.  Instead of it actually being him.  Got the heart, time to finally forge that damn sword.

Couple of nights ago, I stopped and watched an elk and a bear fight. After the bear won I sauntered over and skinned the elk, and got the "Kill a Boss" (or whatever) achievement.

Thanks random bear.

Man, even a normal bear can beat the Elk King?  They obviously need to buff him.   awesome, for real

DLC is for sale and the game has been patched. Star metal supposedly fixed.

Aquilonian buildings take hardened brick, shaped wood and steel reinforcements.

Ohhh, Aquilonian is in? Okay I'm buying this one. Glad I held off building my mountain retreat.

Good DLC strategy Funcom. Here's my money.

They patched the traps/hives/well bugs on testlive this morning and said "We plan to patch this to live as soon as we are convinced that the patch is stable."

Fingers crossed for their stability tests to be done today :)

Patch just got dropped.

Fixes traps/hives/wells, thrall/NPC aggro, Rotbranch not hitting people, thrall health on reboot, and stats on the Roman armor

Wooo!

What's the current status of star metal?  I just hit level 55 and am wondering if it's worth it to go meteor hunting.

They fixed it in the previous patch. If your first explosive jar doesn’t break the meteor just skip it and find another.

I went from not having any star metal to having enough to last me until the end of time.

Yeah, I ran across 3 nodes last night on my server, 2 of them broke, one of them did not.

I had one the other day that didn’t break, then I went along and there were two nodes close together and they both broke on the same jar. Yay me.

Pro-tip: carry earthen jars, tar, dragon powder and make the explosive when you need it rather than pre making the jars. The weight of 5 jars worth of materials is less than one made jar.

pro-tip: using alt to set the explosive jar on uneven ground isn't always a good idea (just watched a lit jar tip over and slide down a slope before exploding...too far from the meteorite to harm it)

As long as the jar starts “touching” the meteor I have never had one roll too far to break it even when they roll like a mile and the fire is nowhere near it. That is if the rick isn’t a bugged “no break” one.

I have tried putting foundations underneath the node and setting up walls to keep the jar from rolling too far. Turns it you can also move the jar sort of inside the rock itself (it looks like it's clipping through the rock) at certain points, which seems to work better than setting up boom rooms.

I may need to be concerned about my old SDD, but this is the second patch where I've had to validate and redownload a few hundred megs of files.

Just grumping about it.

I've had to do that twice too, and another friend of mine had to re-download the whole game one time, it told him everything was corrupt.

I've been playing on PVP and PVE-C servers just to see what's on offer. I am kind of feeling done with this just because Funcom cannot seem to lock down basic gameplay issues in patches. They fix a thing and then slowly over a week or more, the fix unravels bit by bit. On the 14th, aggro was vigorous; yesterday I'd wander into an area where I'd expect to be assaulted by NPCs or monsters and they'd just stand there. There were a variety of spawns on the 14th; now we're back to the usual non-spawns or repetitive spawns. Etc.

They're going to make us feed thralls. That may be a game killer unless we can turn it off server side.

It's their way of getting rid of the thralls in the sky on other servers--when stuff decays, the thralls stay. It's a crude fix.

the question is then, how do they define a base.

I assume they will use “in the no spawn radius” of construction.

Of course, if I put a thrall in the center of the floor of the colusseum that would possibly be outside said radius  ACK!

Regardless, it is funcom so they will cock it up somehow.

So the patch is in (and I haven't downloaded it yet). Are we feeding the thralls or turning it off? I'm actually okay with having to feed them, but I know I tend to be in the minority on such things.

I do like that we can bait traps for type of fish now. I need more oil.

If you need oil, just go harvest one of my fish factories. I haven't harvested a trap in eons and I have 2 presses nearby to mass produce oil.

Pretty sure schild said he was going to turn off thrall feeding.
