Rebecca~ Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 I feel bad, like I haven't done enough. My battlepet sits at this: Lvl : 57 Str : 105 Def : 109 Mov : 57 Hp : 104 / 104 Is it still helpful if I continue to battle the other waves? Will it still count for more points? I want to help as much as possible. I want us to do good!!! And myself, as well. :) No one knows if battling after you finish the progress bar does any good- but it can't hurt! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rune Valentine Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 I unfortunately hadn't had much time to play this wave yet, but I've done two battles half asleep, won one and lost another. Mostly due to a lack of a good healer, but that's solved now. Hopefully I can get my part done in time for the next update. Good luck to everyone and keep trying! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ysera Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Thanks for the advice! I finally beat Lambert after 4 more losses with a Thick Smoke Bomb. I didn't even need to use the Jade Elixir! And I filled up the bar by beating Rasala. She's really the easiest of the bosses, even if I still lost sometimes when she gets lucky. =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Xandria Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Come on Sway! Start attacking pride! (btw, I think TNT did an awesome job with our boss) Anyways, I am pretty sure whoever defeats their faction specific boss the quickest will win. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neomancer Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Let's rack up the losses on my record! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crystalline Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Totally agree that our boss looks awesome, imo. :) Going to participate as much as I can, but also becoming more preoccupied with real life things. (Not that I'm complaining.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TNT has made it pretty clear that it's not what this event is actually about. Here's a portion of what TNT said: "we'll say that ALL fighting, from Wave 1 up through these... things, is counted for your faction. One person getting a victory against a boss helps (because it's pretty awesome). Defeating your boss first as a group helps more. But these are by no means the only things contributing! Everything is taken into account. Things are pretty close right now, so if you want to win, keep fighting." Complete link: http://www.neopets.com/neoboards/topic.phtml?topic=153613897 So yeah, I think it IS a competition with other factions.

I've been attacking Pride a lot, but we are getting him down too slow!!! :( We must not have any heavy hitters on the Sway side. I get the feeling we may not make it *Cry* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kris10ly Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 Attacking the boss makes no difference in its HP, it looks like - several different groups on the plot board have done studies on the rate of HP decrease and the bosses are dropping at a perfectly even rate, meaning that they're actually just timed bosses set to be "defeated" at a specific time (probably late evening NST before the next step comes out). So either no team is actually meant to "win" this plot/step (my theory), or the "winners" have already been predetermined by TNT, or the actual way to score points for your team is not by defeating the boss first, but by getting the most people to fill their Do-Your-Part bars. Here's one of those boards I mentioned: http://www.neopets.com/neoboards/topic.phtml?topic=153615806 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neomancer Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 Well, as long as there are no points for losing even after filling up your bar, I'm not gonna ruin my winning record with even more losses >_> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voteforpedro333 Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 Do we know that the losses are being counted against us for this? Because it doesn't seem like anyone could really win either... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose that would seem more fair all around, but then why are other teams beating their boss quicker? Like the Order has their down, I believe.

~Xandria Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 I'm confused on how they could be dropping at even rates? On one of the boards I found it's seems all the bosses had different HP ranging from 1.4mil to 1.1mil (last checked about an hour or two ago) So, yes... I'm pretty sure that one faction will be victorious, but you never know. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well, as long as we all fill up our DYP bars... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If nothing else, it'll matter for your own personal achievements/prizes! And who knows, maybe TNT has something up their sleeves none of us have thought of.

arunadhi100 Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Does anyone have any idea what fights on the different levels do? I very stupidly spent almost all of the time fighting Pride on Easy and I'm wondering whether to switch to Mighty. If anyone's curious, I filled my Doing Your Part bar with 557 Average and 1 Mighty (although I might have finished before that, I kept hitting Play Again and only checked every 15 battles or so. I was watching TV while doing this.)Also, how do you get the "The Sway: Attendance is mandatory" banner for your sig? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I finished with 40 battles on easy, 1 on medium and 280 (actually 276,but i wanted the number to be even) on hard. And you can find the banners and such in the "Obelisk War Sigs, Buttons, Userlookups And Artwork!" forum topic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LizyMarie Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 *sigh* I've now hit 550 on mighty. And still going. I have a feeling if I keep going it'll pay off. Maybe. *cry* MY EYEBALLS!!! Hahaha xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arunadhi100 Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Yay! It looks like we were the fourth faction to beat it though- the Thieves' Guild, the Order, and the Brutes all beat their Surprise Attacks first (according to http://www.jellyneo.net/?go=tyrannia_plot).

LizyMarie Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 I hear so many stories I don't understand how they are actually defeted. I can't tell if it was time based, loss based, or damage. So confused! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
