In WildStar, two raid guilds have been racing over the last few weeks to see who would be the first to defeat the bosses in the 20-man raid “The Gen-Archives”. A decision was made over the weekend.
Two raid guilds on German servers are among the ten most successful in the world and have been competing for the German PvE crown in recent weeks. The guild Unleashed from the German PvP server Progenitor managed to win the race. On the night from Saturday to Sunday, Dreadphage Ohmna was defeated. The boss is quite reliant on random factors, and fortune was not on the guild’s side for a long time: She just wouldn’t appear. Wipes with only 17,000 HP were to be endured. The Karma goddess consistently had her thumb down, and often just before happiness, it was “Back to the Start”. But after an excessive night shift, Ohmna was down around 3 a.m.
The night shift was certainly also motivated by a second guild, which had been closely following Unleashed in recent weeks. On the PvE server Ikthia, the guild “Chase” is based, which also made it to Ohmna. After the German first kill went to Unleashed, Chase managed to defeat the boss on Sunday. As reported, it was in a pretty bad try, but the random god had mercy and the boss’s abilities played out favorably.
Boss will be nerfed soon
The so annoying boss Ohmna is to be modified in the coming days so that randomness will play less of a role. A boss kill “Pre-Nerf” was therefore additional motivation and a point of prestige and honor for the two dedicated raid guilds.
In the coming weeks and months, both guilds will need to find 20 more players, equip them, and undergo a complicated attunement process in order to tackle the 40-man raid. Here, Unleashed clearly has the advantage: The second raid group has already achieved 4/6 in the 20-man raid; meanwhile, Chase is recruiting new members.
