Hoth Instances Tonight

Post by Bovive » Thu Nov 20, 2008 9:26 am

Hey Guys,

I know Lexx sent out a mail regarding doing some Hoth Instances tonight. I imagine that a lot of people will want to do this. First off just let me say that there are no pre-reqs for this, you just go to Aurilia with at least a 4 man group. I cannot find any information regarding the locations/WPs of the clickable collections inside of the instance. I know some collections exist:

Killing Enemy Faction Sharpshooters
Holoemitter Collection (Only known drop location for Imperials atm)
Wampa Kill Collection
Probe Droid Destroyer (I hear it can only count as 1 kill per instance, not verified). Gives you the Probe Droid Holo-Pet
Taun Taun Ice Sculpture Collection - Clickable inside of Hoth, but I don't know what you have to click.

There may be others too that I am not aware of. I heard something about a mounted Taun Taun head. Anyways, I think the best thing to do is turn on all names in your options to identify the clickable collections until we can figure out where they all are. If you played this on TC and know some locations please share :) Also does anyone have a guide to this instance, strategies or know how long the lockout timer is? Thanks!

Bo

I'll definitely be on, but I will most likely sit out if a subscribed RID member needs a spot in the group.

Okay, well there's always the possibility of filling up another group if there's enough people.

No need to do a prequest, so it can get started pretty quickly.

Spys are also in high demand because of part 2 and the timed supplies that are referenced in the guides on my first post.

Sorry about having to leave early tonight. I was just getting back into it as I had to leave. I'll gladly run it again whenever people are available and I promise to do a much better job this time. Its not easy going from WoW as a non-healer back to SWG as a medic. The controls just felt so ackward tonight. It is looking like we are going to need two medics, at least for the first few runs.

No problem, we'll try to run this again tonight, and definitely tomorrow as well.

The instance is pretty cool, but I had trouble enjoying it with my poor connection and lag. Good news is lag is being investigated, and I'll be able to play on my good computer when I go home for Thanksgiving. That way I'll be able to enjoy it to its fullest.

I was getting a lot lag and my laptop is my good computer. There are few things scarier than having a three second lag on bacta bomb.
