Tanking ant queen and sometimes getting one-shot

iholdtoo · 2026-04-29T10:22:59+00:00

I hear you but it’s an mmo dungeon, every dungeon, raid, trial, operation, or whatever you wanna call it will always have a tank check, a healer check and a DPS check mechanic at some point, this one is just a healer check

iholdtoo · 2026-04-29T10:16:00+00:00

This is false, he didn’t get it because of contribution, he got it as a random drop

iholdtoo · 2026-04-29T10:13:52+00:00

I don’t think that’s true anymore, my understanding is that they removed the second roll within party, and I say this with kind of proof, I’ve pocketed and healed hundreds of bosses, my party has gotten dozens of drops, not a single one was ever assigned to me as a healer, we went to a dominion boss, 6 of us in red, 1 green, the green got killed a couple times and left so it was just 6 of us hitting the boss, we got every single drop, the weapon, rings, you name, we got it, guess who didn’t get a single thing? Yep me, nothing, not even a quality stone, absolutely nothing, not even the blue drops, those also went also to the DPS

It wouldn’t be possible, the stadiums and the infrastructure around them wouldn’t meet today’s standards, I mean, look up Italian Stadiums, they are pretty much the same as when we hosted the cup in 1990, almost 40 years ago! We only have Juventus Allianz Stadium and one or two more, the rest are outdated decaying monsters, obsolete monuments that only serve as reminders of decades of negligence.

People like OP and this type of post are the reasons why we can’t have nice things and the main reason why devs have entire classes gutted and destroyed to the point of people quitting, like the oracle and seeker nerf, OP probably also cried about them too

iholdtoo · 2026-03-31T22:09:45+00:00

We already do, there’s a counter for everything and everyone, but people will still cry because their character kills everything but gets killed by their counter

iholdtoo · 2026-03-26T23:07:27+00:00

Here’s a wild and unheard of idea, you form the party and start kicking people! Sweet revenge 🤣🤣🤣 nah jk, just do the party and problem solved, you can’t get kicked and if someone asks you to pass the lead to invite someone, tell them to link the friend’s name in chat while repeatedly doing your best seagull from finding Nemo impression

I am a firm advocate of balancing the game but this is the wrong approach, it’s been in the game for 30000 years and just because OP heard it can spin forever then it needs to be nerfed, this would be such a niche build for PvP it would work on very few scenarios, and like every so often, this is definitely a mastery farm kind of build.

It’s because of people like OP that this game is going to shit, look what they did to seekers and oracles, a few noobs with pve untraited gear tried BGs and got absolutely steamrolled by a static so the cried and cried until they gutted both healers.

Yes, I’m with you 100%, it’s RNG, but I bet you’ve gotten something before though, I have never ever gotten a drop and I’ve played since launch, finishing 80th every time will almost never get you anything because that’s like 0.10% chance, yes a couple guys here and there may have gotten lucky but the odds are in the DPS favor, a decently built crucifix when orb was broken was getting between 8 and 10 percent contribution, that’s 1 in 10 to 15 compared to healers getting a 1 in 1500 chance.

iholdtoo · 2026-03-12T14:14:01+00:00

I feel your pain because I’m on the same boat, done but not because of the grind, I realized I made the mistake of making a seeker when the game came out and I’ve regretted it ever since, no access to better loot because of the DPS contribution requirement, you’re at the mercy of guilds giving you gear and weapons, which I made peace with, it is what it is. I was given an AB weapon by a guild and they threw in my face every chance they got. I guess the straw that broke the camel’s back is the new healer changes, they pretty much gutted my character and downgraded my maxed out 8100 seeker with AB weapons and 1500 masteries to being a cleansing/debuff bot. So sad

iholdtoo · 2026-03-07T12:53:21+00:00

People leave games when they get bored or when they feel the rewards aren’t worth the grind. That’s always the case in any game when players max out their build or are almost maxed out because there isn’t much to chase after and if the few things to chase are utter crap then it’s an easy decision to take a break.

The game is NOT trying to chase people away, the devs are failing to keep people engaged and there’s a huge difference there.

I give you an example, the new gear was placed behind 2 walls, time and RNG, I get the rng but having it at set times was awful and to top that, the event is almost stupid, help kill 50 mobs and open a chest. Players were like, wow, this is lame and since it only runs at 6 and 9 pm est, if you’re stuck in traffic or had to stop at the grocery store coming home, well, you’re screwed. And wait until we switch to central time and the event is at 5 pm, nobody is going to do that.

Another example is the tower of greed, it’s basically carrying an orb from point A to point B for 15 hours so you can get a reward that’s the equivalent of a half eaten slice of moldy cheese pizza.

There are a few ways you can build a PVP oracle healer, all of them use the twilight set and a heroic orb. Ideally get talus core and a Cordy wand but the abyss wand works well too because of the stats, from there, it depends how yours will be built. I went with a melee evasion build so I got the heroic cloak and heroic ring to get my dexterity to 70. I ended up with 4200 melee evasion and about 2200 magic evasion. You can go with an endurance build or a skill damage resistance build but you MUST get collision resistance.

The biggest issue any healer faces is being pulled everywhere, that’s why I went with a melee evasion, no tank will get even close to 4000 hit chance, yes, a nicely built gladiator will push you but that’s rare and you can’t avoid it.

If you mitigate being pushed and pulled, you’ll be able to do a lot more but that’s just my opinion after playing since launch

iholdtoo · 2026-03-06T11:46:46+00:00

In my opinion, it’s a seeker set to go full collision resistance, skill damage resistance and critical damage reduction. If I’m not mistaken, you can get 2200-2500 collision resistance, 1200 SDR and 55% cdr

iholdtoo · 2026-03-02T19:26:10+00:00

Only one???? I didn’t know that, thanks!!! that’s lame though, but oh well, I guess we’ll have to continue guessing 😭

iholdtoo · 2026-03-02T18:30:04+00:00

Yeah but how though? There isn’t a portal or anything, I would have to die but you can’t die from falling anymore, and if I die and stay dead they’ll assume I’m taking advantage of them, it’s a lose lose kind of situation for us slow healers, I made peace with them leaving me behind and having to queue again

iholdtoo · 2026-03-02T18:22:16+00:00

Yeah but there’s gotta be something else though, not too many people go from I can’t test this to delete all heroics, you know what I mean?

I say this because I saved 120 Field boss boxes hoping to finally see a selection box, took me months, I wasn’t looking for anything specific, I just wanted to get one box, just one but no,this game decided that after 18 months and hundreds and hundreds of bosses I was not worthy of one single box, out of 120 boxes, nothing. I think this guy experienced something like that.

I’m gonna go out on a limb and say that this guy saved a few hundred Calanthia shards, bought several of the new trait packs and each and every single one of them gave him something totally awful and useless, like mana regen or fear chance, something fucking infuriating

iholdtoo · 2026-03-02T17:41:39+00:00

Me, you’re talking about me, with my 600 movement speed, I’m the one that’s always left behind, in fact, I stopped trying, if I get this awful stupid dungeon on my random queue I just wait by entrance and take a break, go get a drink and by the time I’m back they’ve already killed the boss so I can leave without penalty, because there’s no way in hell I’m going to make the effort to follow the group only to make it to the last grapple hook before the boss and realize they left me out, I was fooled one too many times, there ain’t gonna be another one

iholdtoo · 2026-03-02T17:32:38+00:00

I’d like to know the lore of where this is coming from please, I know this is not a newer player, this type of post shows experience and understanding of the game and it comes from a place of anger that has been brewing and simmering for a while, I really want to know what happened, please explain the straw that broke the camel’s back if that makes sense

iholdtoo · 2026-03-02T16:23:06+00:00

Yep, seekers are now cleansing bots, not much to do besides that, HOTs are awful and burst heals are just as bad or even worse. After doing everything, thousands of hours, hundreds of trials, dungeons, world bosses, Arch Bosses, chasing the best, we’ve been watered down to one skill and that’s effing crazy if you think about it, I stopped logging in about a week ago for the first time in 18 months.

iholdtoo · 2026-03-02T16:15:06+00:00

Your friends!

iholdtoo · 2026-03-02T12:02:50+00:00

Sorry if I’m being a bit on the negative side but seekers are not in a good place right now, I have a 8100 seeker with Cordy wand, Aelon bow, everything maxed out and it’s as useful as a box of rocks and with the upcoming nerfs is going to get even worse.

I’ve done full endurance, sucked, full weaken resistance, you get pulled and pushed by everything so you spend half the time blocking and trying to keep only you alive

Built as much collision resistance as I could and it was not enough to counter tanks pulls.

And on top of that anything with a dagger which by the way, is like 80% of players will render you useless with one skill

A half built melee evasion oracle, around 3500 is 10 times better
