was the change in Legendary Vision of Destruction intentional or a glitch?

Something something pillars cause lag something something?

 

[Mindos]

Where do the shrines spawn in there? Maybe a conflict.

Thanks for doing some work to fix the hirelings that were lobotomized. They still are not sticking with me like they should though. I'm constantly having to call them. Aggressive stance in particular has this issue. It isn't because of aggro though. There can be no mobs and still they aren't sticking with me.

Hmm . . . this confirms my suspicions . . . the Devs watch the Trollcast.

I posted a failed R10 VOD pug a few weeks ago where during part of it we stalled Sulu while most of the party was dead using the pillar.

They must have seen this and decided to nerf things.

BRB, need more tinfoil for a new hat.

The change to Vision of Destruction was an intended change, but missed the release notes. This change was done as a byproduct of our performance work due to that pillar being a source of AI and pathing errors. Related is that this pillar was being used to cheese parts of the raid, which made the situation even worse. So, had to get fixed. We can take a look at lighting, however, as it sounds like some would prefer changes?

It ain't easy being cheesy!

Jokes aside . . . thank you! The frigging pillar gets in the way of insta-killing the martians.

Did the pillar change help with the major lag that happens when the Orthon's spawn? Cause that's the annoying thing in there.

Poor Suulo he was a pillar of the community......and then they took his pillar.

Drop rate for loot form this pack is pitifully low, serveral ransacks with multiple accounts all VIP and nothing drops in the way of named items, at least have the decency to make a token type system whereby x number of runs means we can buy similar to raids. or make shards cheap enough to be worth the cost.
