i put queen cause everyone is doing something the whole fight. very fun fight

Done them all, and I HATE Sendaii with a passion. I swear, I've killed any spider I;ve seen in rl after spending a whole week on her. Others are ok though, voted Emperor.

in my opinion, it's a toss up between Qendaii and CoT9. Both events are very fun to do. but from a standpoint of someone who gets bored easily during events (and plays 2 of the most monotonous classes in the game) i must say that Sendaii wins out. With the different phases of sendaii come different challenges, and the event gets ALL classes involved in some way shape or form which is nice. Comparing this to CoT9, where chanters are virtually useless except for rebuffing people who die, and clerics are pretty much assigned to either a main tank / RT or offtank.... well, it just becomes too "rinse and repeat" for my tastes.

to compare with the other blood trials, Emperor is also a fun event but lacks the chaos that sendaii brings with her. again he's too rinse and repeat for my tastes. Bloodeye is a joke, Shyra is a joke... neither of these events are truely challenging once you get the pulls down and again they don't involve every class for the most part, which in my opinon, drops them out of the running.

Sendaii FTW!

Sendaii
I mean...nuking spiders. After not winning this event for a month of trying due to lack of mezzing classes during wave 3...I felt like killing any spider i saw irl or in the game...even if it wasn't needed.
Through the first three waves alone, you have to kill around 80+ spiders and the last wave is just messed up...so many spiders near the end...just too many /=
Good thing putting effort in eventually payed off...
Plus being able to use my AE nukes rocked :D

Queen is the most fun because of length and the amount of mobs involved. Also the very end with the never ending adds is amazingly intense the first time through.

Queen Sendaii, definitely. Though the revamped Draygun is (I'd say) now classified as harder, per se, Queen is the one where everyone has got to be on the ball.

Last couple of times my Guild's done the Queen, I was told to leave my 75 CLR bot behind, and concentrate solely on my main (75 ENC); how often does that happen...? Not often enough. =/

(Heck, 90x out of 100x, it's my main who's extraneous, and the bot who's vital. Go figure. /sigh)

If it weren't for the fact that I still love being an ENC more than anything else, I'd have switched mains ages ago. Honestly, I know Enchanters were never envisioned as a solo Class...but neither were Clerics. A Cleric with full defensive AAs, using Vow of Valor Rk. II + Ward of Reprisal Rk. II...yeah, tell me they can't solo. Pffft.

(Hell, I'd be pathetically grateful if they'd just remove the "LORE" tag from our Azure/Sanguine Mind Crystals. I don't even ask that they be stackable.)

Sendaii ftw. What could ever compare to her mayhem? I'll take a script like hers any day over something like Shyra's fairly straight forward tanking/dpsing... If you can't keep straight with 30+ mobs in the middle of the raid, and keep track of which ones will split into even more mobs when killed... You're in for a bucket of hurt..

Unfortunately, I am not a member of a guild that can do the blood raids. Much of the game content is inacessable to the average player.

I don't know what the rest of you are smoking, but as a cleric, Sendaii is the Devil... I use anything other than Divine Arb or a HOT and I'll have half the zone rushing me if our knights arent on the ball... Some things about Sendaii arent bad, but i couldnt call it fun lol.




I voted CO9

as an enchanter, i absolutely love sendaii. i don't mind the ae's (thank you runes and spell shielding), and my skills actually make a difference in this event. draygun would be my distant second pick, since i'm constantly hauling butt back and forth from the adds (mana flare on nukers and nuking adds) to rebuffing the resurrected and trying to keep my cleric in range of my aura. enchanters are just super weak dps in bloodeye and shyra. on council we basically can't do anything but rebuff due to resists.

i voted for sendaii

i thought the fight was not fun at all..it sucked...but it was challenging..ppl had to pay attention and know what they were doing for u to win.

I think we only failed this event twice...maybe 3 times
