    hahah you just gotta wait, till the eyes move into opposite paths and get it when its furthest away. your biggest problem will be the mage mobs that pop and decide to cast AM on you and stand there till the other eye comes back and aggros too Q_Q. there is a bit of luck involed in those pulls too lol

  2. I think the problem was when the Thf pulled he started /ra when the Eye was closest to us, but the shot didn't go off until it had begun to head back, so this ended up throwing off the pull a bit. Probably would have been better to use Flash or another ability in order to aggro as quickly as possible. Oh well, live & learn.

    Is it more advisable to go to both TE from the southern paths?

    The only one we attempted was the northern path on the 3rd floor.

    Was just thinking of this before sleeping. Have any Body -1 pieces ever dropped in Tavnazia? With us or anywhere else?

    If not, then I think that's pretty much the only reason why we would ever want to farm the Pugils/Leeches/etc that are in the lower hallways of the main and upper levels.

    I think the hard part is getting to those mobs after you get the TE repops. Just not enough time left.

    Yes, and we will be doing this at our next double Tavnazia run.

    What kain mentioned is one of the biggest problems with farming Tav.So i have been working on a quick "sac pull" way to get the time ext.

    second floor(hydra)
    1.clear both north and south bees.
    2.clear the first eye in the tunnel from the south entrance.
    3.from the middle of the tunnel at g-10 have a thf flee and aggro all the eyes folowing the right wall all the way to the middle of h-8(by dieing in the middle of the hall way the mobs will not aggro the alliance)
    4.as soon as the thf uses flee have the nin/war and war/nin run in and voke the 2 eyes right outside of the tunnel and bring them back to the alliance;at the same time have the 2 pld(with movement speed+ armor) run in and get the 2 eyes in the upper hall way(the middle eye that does not move spawns the time ext ??? i think).
    5.kite the eyes till all of them are dead to avoid -ga spamming.
    6.after all the eyes are dead have the thf 2h flee run in and get the ??? then run back to the middle circle.The alliance should at this point already be on the third floor so no one gets aggro.

    From what i have noticed the eyes almost always stop and cast when they are aggroed(not 100% shure about this);this should give the 4 pullers the time to run in and claim.Since provoke has a smaller range then flash I had the pld getting the eyes at f-9 in case they started to move.

    Useing this would not allow further farming on the second floor since there would be too many links due to the mobs that pop from the ??? time ext.

    The same thing can be done for the top floor(in the event that farming the second floor was the objective)but i am not 100% shure of the eye placement.
