Nyzul Isle Assault Orders
Since the first week of the release of Treasures of Aht Urhgan my static and I have been doing Assault regularly. Almost every week we have done seven Assaults consitently except when someone forgets to get an early tag or doesn't show up for whatever reason. The staic started with six of us Suiram, Nivlakian, myself, Alina, Reaper, and Mmaximus, but since the release Alina, Reaper and Mmaximus have all quit. The static ended up being reduced to the three of us. We continued pushing through the various Assaults with only minor snags throughout our acsension of the ranks. Alina has since come back and does some Assaults with us again, but I no longer consider him part of our static.
Our original goal was to complete every Assault in each area as quickly as possible after an update. In the final days of our six man static some of us had to repeat difficult Assaults to get the rest of the group wins. This annoyed me to no end. We had all agreed to come on time and prepared for our set Assault time. In the end for better or worse they left leaving only the three of us. Suiram, Nivlakian and myself continued repeatable Assaults to accumulate points for Salvage and in hopes of obtaining the better items from ??? that we get when we win.
When Nyzul was released awhile back our priorities changed. While we still do not know what the point is our Nyzul goal is to get our regulars to floor 100 and obtain their key item for winning. We do Nyzul three times a week, so ascending the floors is relatively slow, but we need a balance with Red Versus Blue to ensure we always have a good supply of Assault points for Salvage. Suiram and I are the first of our group to earn the Runic Key for completing floor 100. Nivlakian is half way there.
The others in my Nyzul group take lesser priority than the three of us in my view. While I am greatful they are helping us and I want to help them all obtain their Runic Key if something happened tomorrow that forced us to leave them behind I would not feel bad. Many people have said they would be reliable and show up on time, but have resulted in being unreliable. I am tired of being let down. I am confident that the individuals who currently come with us will continue to be reliable, so three hundred and fifty floors to go?
While most groups that do Nyzul Isle Assault focus on farming the five bosses we are focusing on the key item in hopes that we will be given access to wonderful and fantastic loot when the reason behind the key item is revealed. When the new area, unlocked by the Runic Key, comes out and I get my non-rare/ex Galka only defending ring we'll see who is laughing.
