Mean giant honeying

Wizardcool11 · 11-27-2010, 12:58 AM

This is a kingdom quest nearly 100% failure. Anyone can tell u that. 10people, 30 mins, objective: kill everything. It may sound like king slime only more annoying, but your wrong. The shadow honneyings are the mobs of the boss this time, and they can even hit 200+ on a lev 50 cleric. And when the fatso honeying dies, he spawns 20+ of them!!!!!! Assuming that a fighter has double def than a cleric, then they will deal 2000+ per attack, not to mention the first three spawns if unkilled. Ok, so this time, we had an ank. I trust u understand what an ank is. Then before I knew anything, only 1 cleric was alive in a corner, most of us had no hearts left and there were two mins left to kill~ 40 shadow honneyings! put a long story short, we had to use an archer to save our butts. Thanks Aosh!

Kill it!!!--->

okay here is what my hypothises on honeying is its all about AOE if you have a ton of people that aoe altogether the mobs are toast

i finally convinced one KQ to just aoe and it was a succes (so maybe this can become a new strategy

) also a good tip for this KQ is to have a person that pulls the mobs from the boss when they spawn and have an aoe party to finish them off

first of all it is possible to finish honeying kq with time to spare. all you need is 1 things:
teamwork:
fighters tank and pull the right amount of mobs at the right times while keeping all/most aggro.this does not mean grab 50 mobs at one time. The tank needs to know his/her limit. Clerics must be healing at all times, however the more clerics u have the less healing each of has to do. archers/ mages/ dd fighter use multishot/magic burst as soon as the cooldown is done. As long as everyone know what they have to do, then everything should be fine. for me I usually see the ideal team being 1 tank, 1cleric, and 3 mages/archers. The second you have people not knowing what to do is when the kq uusually fails.
As for the boss spawn, just pull the giant honeying to a different spot everytime he spawns and someback to the shadow honeyings later.

Robo and Honeying are two of the worst KQ's. They arnt hard, but they're failed a lot simply because that is the levels at which the game changes difficulty and people actually have to play decently to succeed.

For King Slime and Mara Pirates, half the people can be AFK/Under Level/Retarded (you pick) and you can still succeed as a group. They made it that easy so noobs can learn how to play.

Robo and Honeying seem impossible because all the idiots that didnt learn how to play (during KS and Mara) are still playing and they still dont know what they're doing. I've seen fighters go down with 0 heals. I've seen clerics melee a boss and die to AoE. I've seen mages AoE and get one shotted because they're reckless. ect. ect.

After Honeying it starts to get better. There are still MD groups that fail on occasion, but all the retards have usually quit by level 45+ or they've learned how to play.

Let me put it to you this way...

On my new mage, I leveled out of Robo/Honeying range before I did all the quests. I only KQ'ed when I had nothing else to you. I learned my lesson this time around and avoided KQ's as much as possible from 35-50.

Edit: And yes, its entirely possible to finish Honeying with even more than 10 min left.

every time OS creates a new kq, they are trying to make it easier for idiots who get dumber and dumber... the universe tries to make dumber people to compete... the universe wins hands down with honneying and robo... thanks for your time!

The Honeying KQ is really difficult. I almost passed it one time (I was a cleric) but I some how pulled agroo and died x_x and the only cleric left was being stupid and wouldn't rev me or heal the tanks so we all died near the end.

The problem with honeying nowadays is that no one knows how to mob things together.

The only reason I won honeying on my new archer is because I lvled to 51 at 10 seconds til it started.

We won with 13 minutes to spare, but we had to cheat to do it xD

Have u still failed the kq being 70% charmed?

l: I've never won a Mean Giant Honeying KQ, I don't tend
to bother with them anymore, the closest I've gotten to beating
it was when my party was at the boss, but we only had a few
seconds left, and failed.
It was a few healers, one or two knights, and a mage tanking.

MilkMoustache · 12-10-2010, 03:41 AM

Yeah same here.. OMG SAKURA KEEPS BEATING ME TO EVERY THREAD x.x
But yeah I have never won a single honeying before.
Time Limit, and the lack of people participating.
