Thanks for rampage this week

Probably the worst area to do rampage on - Theres roughly only 50 things to kill in the whole area! Now spread that over 40 people in the instance and you dont have rampage you have abuse, boredom and running around like a headless chicken praying something spawns in front of you. The dev who came up with that one must be wetting themselves :(

 

Only "fix" we found was to go to the lower area (for objective Anti-Toxin Acquisition), kill all the critters and then reset phase before doing the objective, rinse repeat 5-10 times.

I was shocked when I didn't find any red mobs yesterday evening in the whole area. I didn't understand why there were suddenly so many players doing the Czerka weekly (20 other reps + surely at least the same amount of imps). I never needed that long to finish the "kill 35 mobsters" mission (as the rats in the cellar don't count for this).

 

I did like it though that I wasn't the only republic player in the instance (which I usually am). I even got 2 other players to accept my invite for the H2 droid. There was a long queue and while I appreciated that players waited their turns, I figured that everyone would benefit from me making a group. :p

 

Perhaps not the best place for a rampage, but I will be alone there next week again and if I could choose between 20 players + me or me all alone, I choose the first. ;)

I was wondering when I went to do my weekly why there were so many people and then I checked the conquest and sighed. There is no way I will be fighting just to get my missions done for the weekly so this one I will not be doing this week unless it gets less later.

 

I don't mind having people but 30-40 (it was 34 at 9:00pm yesterday on Star Forge) is a bit over crowded for this particular area.

Lol when I read the title to this thread I thought perhaps the OP was talking about our most recent prolific forum spammer.

Me too! Fortunately ignore took care of that madness for me.

 

As for the rampage, I did check conquest when I saw many people in CZ. It turned out not to be too bad for me as the mobs respawn really quickly. Also the rat-things which are in the instanced mission count towards rampage ;)

Only a couple of people in Czerka last night around 10 pm-11pm on DM

Try the PvP instance, that's usually empty, and it's a nice suprise if the enemies can actually fight back occasionally.

 

14 Imps in the pvp instance left me still waiting for respawns last night. At least it wasn't as bad as the pve instances.

First is complained that are too few people and now because there are too many? LOL Now imagine it would be so full anytime, anywhere. Of course, more people than 40 depending on the size of the area. : eek: : D

Rampage is actually very easy to do in CZ-198.

Pick up the Anti-Venom daily

Kill all of the rats inside the instance, but do NOT activate for final part.

Go back out, reset the mission.

Enter the instance again, kill all of the rats...

Rinse and repeat.

You will get 30+ kills in under a minute towards rampage with zero competition from anyone else.

 

The three stages of rampage can probably be done as fast or faster than if you were alone killing the normal mobs.

 

Now as far as the other quest where you actually have to kill X number of the NPCs....

What's really bad, is this is the ONLY rampage this week. Everything else is either crafting, or group content. I have worked for 2 days and only have 9k to show for it, non crafting toon, and it took over an hour and a half to do the CZ-198 rampages. Just too many people vying for the limited number of mobs. Thanks for the tip on the basement, I'll try that tomorrow. Probably shave a significant amount of time, especially since the toon has a fantastic AOE for those rats to feast upon.
