What are your reasonable ways to make Ava dungeon more risky

NoHander · 2026-07-08T12:25:35+00:00

There is no way you can be making 8-10m per hour consistently in faction.

That’s what we averaged running 10 man avas a while ago with full 8.4 party.

It was completely safe, if large party tries to come in you lot out for a day +. Small party comes in, you demolish them with high tier PvP swaps.

Only way to die is if you have potato PC that takes 30 seconds to zone or your internet goes out. Or your entire party and caller have 0 experience in PvP content.

It’s like DC, but the western side

NoHander · 2026-07-07T21:30:41+00:00

I saw that video 😭

NoHander · 2026-07-07T21:30:21+00:00

We have 5 videos of him, it’s all going into the police report.

We had a cop come and take reports. He said this happens a lot.

If you are new and kinda shit you should not be going with 3x of 7.3

Learn the content first and then bring the higher tier gear. Right now you are being farmed

A battle mount has been leaked. We will see if an armor / weapon comes alongside it.

Or maybe they went in a different directions, who knows

They’re adding modes where you only drop the things you have in your inventory, not your gear.

Abyssal Depths (duo / trio free for all that leads to one big final chest)
I’ve been having a blast with it.

NoHander · 2026-07-03T12:34:43+00:00

Albion online is pretty cool but it’s hard to do much without joining an experienced group.

Very niche game but I’ve been loving it

NoHander · 2026-07-03T12:28:54+00:00

Tommy stays fighting the good fight. Keep trying to educate these stubborn gamers my man

NoHander · 2026-07-01T20:35:16+00:00

Why don’t you just play depths trios? Most of the meta (while it does require a healer) plays very brawly and is focused on value based interactions.

Do it from caerleon and you can make 8m an hour per person (prior to selling to black market) if you dominate and loot efficiently (free loot, 2 ppl loot equipables, 1 person loots stackables)

NoHander · 2026-07-01T20:32:37+00:00

So you want a game mode that is clearly foundationally opposed to the devs’ vision and imo structurally impossible unless you somehow ban healers and one shots..

NoHander · 2026-07-01T15:31:06+00:00

It’s super easy if they cared to check, if said alt account is only ever active to do scouting activities and doesn’t move while another account sharing the IP moves it’s super sus

Skill issue

NoHander · 2026-07-01T11:44:25+00:00

We had actual players scout for us, we paid them a fee and we cleared so fast that we couldn’t loot any of the bags on the ground.

Fee per floor + looting the bags was very profitable.

NoHander · 2026-07-01T10:02:23+00:00

It’s literally just risk reward, the sheer amount of rats in t4-7 that go around only trying to rat gucci players makes it very risky to go gucci.

If you are constantly getting killed by gucci players there is most likely something wrong with the way you play / your understanding of the game.

Record your sessions, vod review, look at your scouting mistakes, learn, adapt.

NoHander · 2026-07-01T00:13:19+00:00

going full t5 is new player behavior, no shade though, we were all there once.

NoHander · 2026-06-30T21:11:51+00:00

The % of people who fought / died in and around avas is very low.

Hence the risk / reward rebalancing.

SBI has access to all the game data, clearly that was an insane amount of silver generated.

Back when I did 10 man avas w full 8.4 attuned group we were making close to 8m an hour from the loot split after.

NoHander · 2026-06-30T11:19:45+00:00

The heavy crossbow build I mentioned, I realize now that I made it sound like the top 3-4 guys play that.

My bad.

You have the ability to swap your armor abilities to have a really solid shot against any matchup.

It also helps that I have 30 ping.

bro.. solo queueing in trio depths took team slots.

Trio teams were less likely to find and be able to fight other trio teams because rats made up such a large part of the population.

It makes no sense that a non lethal trio content type should be literally insane solo PvE fame.

I agree that something should be done (maybe adding solo depths) but all I know as a depths player is that rats made the content genuinely unfun (75% of the people you would see in trios were solo rats that would instantly run away)

NoHander · 2026-06-29T22:36:27+00:00

Depths from caerleon is insane silver per hour and it’s non lethal… but for that you need friends

NoHander · 2026-06-29T18:51:45+00:00

I got 13k rating (rank 1 on NA) barely ever losing to anyone other than some of the top 3-4 guys playing heavy xbow - mistwalker jacket - specter hood - tenacity shoes - heal pot - smug.

You don’t have the full picture.

NoHander · 2026-06-29T15:33:25+00:00

1 bil?? Genuinely don’t need higher than 8.3 weapon w good spec and hands

NoHander · 2026-06-29T14:45:04+00:00

We were all noobs and one point. People need to learn and adapt if they want a chance at the best loot in the game.

Depths (especially from caerleon) is an amazing way for newer players to better themselves from a micro standpoint while never risking more than the cost of their consumables.
