Everyone keeps saying that they are gonna get rid of rassa. I looked on the camelot herald and can't find anything about it? Can someone link me to where the devs were talking about it? I want to read it for myself and can't find anything about rassa getting shut down on the camelot herald . Thanks

They aren't getting rid of Rassa but they're changing the way the mobs spawn a little bit to get rid of the exploit people are using to farm it right now.

patch notes for pend, they pads will remain active for a longer period of time after someone steps off.. making it harder to stop the encounter before the boss shows up.

This will only nerf the 3 outer pads. The main Rassa pad was never a problem, because Rassa despawns. The Malrassa pads will become problematic because once that thing spawns it takes a long time for it to despawn and the pads remain inactive for a while.

You can prevent this with a mob5, 101dex, blocking mythirian, aug dex3+, and %blocking pve block bot. A good block bot can cause the spawn loop to remain semi-infinite. They won't spawn if you get off the pads quickly and have a good blocker most likely.

I can still see the main Rassa pad working regardless though.

I don't see the point in nerfing Rassa PL'ing as they don't put in enough incentives to group PvE/level. People are forced to PL at Rassa, because there is no leveling elsewhere.

I did mean no one is leveling elsewhere. You can pay someone to PL you in PoC. Or level in the BGs. But people are doing this solo for the most part. No incentives to group up.
