I failed a flash event because I was distracted listening to a video and thought the other player had given enough ore to the npc and I deleted my inventory of ore. First time failing because of my own mistake. Oh well.
"Player contributes the bare minimum, their personal progress then teleport away. I can't always complete the event by myself without their help."
Play Flash Events on a more populated world. Problem solved.
i decided to do this for the combat events, kinda hard to kill 200 things on my own let alone deal 70k damage since im not high tiered. well one event of trying to find the spiders in a literal blinding fog of necromancy as people stand right on top of them making targeting the spiders basically impossible later and i doubt ill ever actually get anything but the bloodwood tree.
Go to
Settings > Controls >
(scroll to bottom)
Cycle Target Forwards/Backwards
. Keybind one of those to an easy to use key (I use numpad /) and press that whenever your target dies - you will automatically target a new target within range of you, even if things are chaotic/crowded and you can't see to target something. This is particularly useful to me at phase 2 of the meteor event (pyrefiends).
Things may be looking down now, but I see a light at the end of the tunnel;
Do you think I should get off the tracks?
