Sure, would love too. Than I have another question for you. In the past, with v262 they changed something to the ape's attacks, where it did armour-piercing hits (rendering saddles useless). After that patch it was fixed for gamma, while it still being there on beta and alpha. We are months further now... So I'm wondering if there is much difference between gamma and beta? Is there much difference between them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're pushing a couple months now with a few Evo events... A Vet tribe could easily be end game by now. I know a few tribes that were building full metal week 2.

Balteraxe Posted November 9, 2017 Author Share Posted November 9, 2017 16 hours ago, ThzNutz said: Well, I do want to share this with you, since you are hopefully one that can pass the message on. Yesterday we went to the Beta bossfight on Center and this was the result. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1195876895 The fight was over really fast. we brouth 20k hp rexes with 600+ dmg. 1 yut and 2 boars. The ape was doing so much damage, felt like it did 1.5k-2k dmg per hit. The boars couldn't even heal them up. The fight only lasted one minute. We used these rexes to fight the Beta ape on the island. And we didn't loose one rex. How is it possible that this fight is so hard and it's even a dual fight and gives less element (if beaten), only 44 element. And the requirements to start the fight are higher aswell. It's like the boss hasn't been updated compared to the fight on the island, because there was said that the dual fight bosses should be easier than the single bosses on the island. Seems to me, that some input was wrongfully added, making the center bosses harder than their island counterparts. Any idea's, advice on this Nuts?

The ape is nearly impossible. And this is gamma. How can it that the Island beta monkey is way easier than the monkey in the beta dual fight on the center? ^question is for others, not particularly meant for you poozilla.
