do people party bio3 with 12 member w/sense?

[kgirluvr]

Hi
i've been told on chaos server this kind of setup is really done alot in bio3, with about 10-15 mil / hr per person?

can someone confirm this?
also if the exp is so good, why not i havent seen peopel on loki or iris do this?

perhaps its done in guilds only or in secret?
or smaller partys in bio3 are more prefered or thors gets way more so no one bothers.

please discuss
thanks.

I wouldn't say 10-15 m/hr per person. I did it for a while and I got about 5m an hour without exp shoes or a Battle Manual.

It isn't done in secret or guilds only. I was under the impression that Loki did it but not nearly as often and that Iris doesn't do it mostly because of a lack of necessary people.

Loki people are more stubborn. Thats about all it is. I'm actually wondering if more bigger parties will form now that Safety wall doesnt block the high wizard spells anymore. Before all people on loki wanted to do was camp a wizard and nothing else. I've been in large parties that had mental sense on loki.... but they just wanted to camp a wizard to AV, TSS, SD..... no one ever wanted to asura.

Bigger parties take more time to set initially because there are more key players involved. Once people see a scholar, champ, etc..... one of the key members of the party isnt that skilled, they refuse to party them again. So you usually work within a set group of people.

I have a lvl 98 Bard on Loki with Mental Sensing, always looking for parties and I have never used it once in a year :-/

Big parties are still forming on chaos. There are less people than before but still 1-3 parties form every night.

[Hankie Pankie]

And 2/3 of them are jokes. ):

You can probably expect Bio3 to be back (and packed) in full swing with this coming exp event.

loki sucks at bio3.































unless there guild has a GTB.

[Forgottenesper]

I'd have to agree with /\

The only parties I see on bio3 that are big is like... A couple guilds who have GTBs.

Other than that it's like... As small party as can be x-o;

Before the patch Chaos would have times where there were 6+ 12 person parties.

they sure do, it takes alot of time to find members in your party, and also sometimes people have to leave and that could make the whole party fail as a whoile. If you only party pepole you trust then setting a party and waiting for someone to log on could take hours.

but if the exp is great odds are usualy pepole will come back for more. it's almost unbelieveable that were 6 max parties going at the same time.

[Lynzie]

Oh yeah, Bio on Chaos totally got crowded. Sometimes there were no parties at all down there because no Scholars or Champs were on. I remember times (and this is fairly recently when I was 99ing my Dancer) when there would be three parties ready to go except for a Scholar or Champ sitting in LH doing nothing because they couldn't go without them.

And yeah, people definitely get blacklisted if they screw off or just have no idea what they're doing. But, on the other hand, people get called on constantly if they're awesome at what they do. I was told by several parties that because I actually kept my goddamn songs up that people would pick me over other people who had obviously been sitting in LH looking for a party longer than me just because they knew I didn't fail at Dancer.

Biolabs is a lot of fun. :3

[Jaay]

probably because there's only one ms team on loki lol

[Feint]

Bio3 parties that big were not a problem on euRO Loki before Rachel update. During an EXP event we had Bio3 so full all parties couldn't even get a room of any kind down there. Of course, some of the parties were DD, but many asura parties existed, too.

Nowadays there are still 1-3 parties in Bio3 almost 24/7. It's hard to believe iRO servers have so hard time organizing bigger parties o_O.

[VanillaIce]

All you need is a scholar/hp/minstrel for hwizzies now!

[Ko-No-Hana]

Parties on chaos have slowed down a lot. Only 1-2 12 man parties been going on. Will probably pick up like Minty said on Friday.

[Tiltowait]

Yea the new monster skills just slow every part of bio3 down, much more than the change of smiths-to-water and sinx-to-demon did.

Still, there's usually at least one full 12-man party there per day, probably will be 3 or 4 during the upcoming event.

[Pa.rabola]

There's plenty of MSers on Loki. It's just the part of getting them together that's a bit harder (that and finding ones that don't suck completely). Loki just went the duo-as-much-as-possible route in general, or solo.

The only time I really see decent sized parties is TT, which I hear Chaos doesn't really do as much. Just server differences.

Chaos represent. There was also a 4-man stairs party doing crazy stuff with Whirlwind.
Bio3 always gets a bit abandoned after a new patch. Then ppl start slowly crawling back in after a few weeks.

This is not the ideal spot to do parties. We were there because the other, more ideal, spots were taken.

Notice the SERIOUSLY BUSINESS party chat. ... D:

[kgirluvr]

how do u screw up pressing 1 hot key? or encore over and over?
especially in a party that doesnt move, not to mention, the bard class can activate sense if the dancer is afk.

[Lynzie]

I ask that a lot. It amazes me how often people are incapable of keeping their songs up. o_O

[WK]

The only time I really see decent sized parties is TT, which I hear Chaos doesn't really do as much. Just server differences.Chaos knows that TKM leech is where it's at below lvl90/95.

[Mint]

That's one sexy scholar in that first screenshot, WK.

Anyways, while it was just my patyu until ~4pm EST, when we left (9pm EST) there were at least 2 other full parties there. Bio3 is officially back on Chaos.

[Foul Play]

somehow loki doesnt think you can pull 6m/hour+[per person] with only a champ as a killer.

[Lynzie]

Loki is wrong. :P
