Hi Reddit,

Just wanted to share my experience with Eternal pools, I don’t know if it’s common knowledge but :

1. AGS added an invisible wall around the mountain behind the Lazarus Portal, this mountain was previously used by some people to reach Eternal pools from the top and kill the tentacle boss without taking any damage.

2. Then you could kill the 2 tentacles around the bear boss below while waiting for the tentacle boss to respawn - Afaik those still can be farmed this way. (But that’s if you managed to reach the top solo)

3. You could then, by using the block jump strategy, climb some rocks to reach the tentacle boss again and complete the loop. Well, the rock formation that was used to climb the mountain as been modified and it is impossible (to my knowledge) to use this route anymore. This means you must break the wall behind the bear boss to reach the top.

What does it mean : solo farming is (again to my knowledge) dead at Eternal pools. Is it a bad thing ? Well honestly, killing a boss solo by not taking any damage is a blatant exploit so I’m fine with it. What I have a problem with is the constant nerfing of things that make the game playable mostly solo. I play on a medium pop server, groups for elite zones aren’t common, so being able to farm stuff solo was very enjoyable.

What are your thoughts on this change ?
