Cerb / Baal "Final Fight"

[mparton_1280808]

Once the final phase starts, ie when you can no longer stun, does anyone know the mechanics of how long its meant to last ? is it based on a number of players hitting him, regardless of power ? I ask since I am on a very quiet realm, on a very quiet server, and today (two people in the banish only !!!) we got the damage phase done in about 20 minutes, and the "final fight" took TWENTY ROUNDS - - longer than the damage phase. Apart from being incredibly tedious - and please do not reply saying it was because we didn't have enough power, we obviously had more than enough -- anyone got an insight as to why it took this long ?

30 or 35 hits, I forget which.

hmm thanks... so if that's the case --the quieter servers are massively penalised, no ? e.g. if, despite advertising in realm chat, I cannot persuade more than one more person to join Cerb / Baal -- I literally have zero chance, EVER, of upgrading the boss correct ? No matter what my power or damage, it can't be done, if it takes maybe 17 rounds (35 /2) to complete the "final fight" and that's after doing all the damage in the first place. With a 15 min timer to beat. Sounds like great game design !

Should open a support ticket and voice your concerns. The DEV team I am sure will look at it. Also Dawn can help with this too.

Hopefully your server is on the list to be merged (if not the first round of merges, push for the second). Other than that, you can change realms or accept the fact that an upgrade is not likely to happen in your realm :/.

No, we aren't on the "less competitive" merger list !! haha !! although its tricky to be less competitive, than 2 people in a banish !

There is a way to get many hits in. Put Calvin on first formation. Take down his morale. then every hero will take a turn hitting him.. and Banish will hit and eliminate 1 hero at a time... A few rounds of this, and you have hit him 30 odd times easy.

30 or 35 hits, I forget which.

Is it based on the number of times that he is hit or the number of fights (one per 60 seconds per player).

I thought it was hits. Some times, I see 2 rounds with 15 people and some times 3 rounds til he is done. Put Calvin first at this stage and you should be able to finish him faster.

After they 'fixed' the 'how to win the 10mil coin' its very random i believe'

'Yes with calvin letting the others hit again you can score more pts - Don't think after he's killed the first time points are the issue or the way to get final hit (only tynon knows)

= saw a post by someone saying 2 people were trying to kill their banish (final hit)- and they couldn't do it cause the game wouldn't let them.
That was an interesting post.
