Well, you can just get all 3 t3 NMs and kill 3/cycle for less runs back to the NPC. Assuming you can kill all 3 solo quicker than the time it would take to run back for 3 pops.

Not that Ive tried but I dont think I can kill it solo faster than 2 to 3 man since 2 of these NM has aoe normal attack moves that takes TP away, which makes melee leaden 3 step a lot harder to connect and slow down kill speed .-.
If theres another person that can start disortion for leaden it should be faster probably.

Scholar works but its not necessary. Any distortion ws dd works, they are probably faster than sch too.

All this talk about being able to kill Zi'Tah T3s.
I guess some of us casual, returning players have to do this the merit points way. ><

Assuming average exp a kill is like 30-60k in a proper party. It's around 4100-8300 kills to get the 25k merits for a pulse weapon
8300 kills can be done a lot faster than that sounds for most people, so even if you are on the low end of that range you should be able to get a pulse weapon pretty quickly.
Still sucks though.

I don’t recall 45s Neaks giving that much xp.

You could always do Meeble Burrows.
Wizened Phantom Worm:
*Obtained by completing objectives before leaving.
*When traded in, may give an adflictio.
Meeble Burrows also has "Bonus Spoils" which literally doubles the quantity of drops. IE If you get one glowing, now there's two in pool.
Svaha (Batallia Instructor) has Bonus spoils along the progression path and may drop tenkomaru.
Samursk (Sauromugue Researcher) also has Bonus spoiles in progression & may drop adflictio.
I suggest duo + trusts. That way if it drops, you both get a weapon.

Am I wrong? Am I confusing CP with EXP?... I haven't slept at all today. Up with the baby till 7am.
Don't we typically get more EXP than CP per kill?

To even unlock the 25,000 Merit Route you need to give Emporox either 297 Crytsl Petrifacts, 36 Abdjalis Honors, or 12 Simian Horns and 12 Daimonic Casings.

That depends on what you're doing, if you're doing zitah dragons or something, you're getting more exp than capacity points, though it's not exactly great numbers, with that said, assuming no competition, it takes about 15 minutes for a solo beast master to cap merits in zitah with corsair's roll on.
If you're doing apex mobs though, you're probably getting roughly the same amount of exp, but much more capacity points.

Yeah, those are all items I accumulated spamming stuff anyway and/or bought off the AH just to unlock Emperox. I figured might as well unlock it if it's a thing to get done in the game. Lesson to learn from SE: If you can do it, just do it to have access to it. Remember how busy Dynamis - Taznavia was after the divergence update because so many people just didn't bother to clear it beforehand?

Still sucks though.
Remember when it was 3000 kill shots a trial for a mythic when the upgrade first came out? I remember spending weeks to do kill trials, this is nothing with the AoE jobs of today.

There is no grind greater than the original relic grinds.
From 64man dynamis runs for a year for currency to the 3000 kill shot trials.

Well getting 25K shouldn't be terribly hard, annoying but not hard. Six people inside Reizen AoE cleaving and running to NPC to turn in every time it's full. Could clear a couple thousand a day that way.

So I know at least one of you already got the sword. How does the "attack varies with number of buffs" function.

SE should make an event each month where Gorpa-Masorpa is displaced and you have to fight a boss as a server to get him back. xD
