Serious Oz Tower Players

Hey guys, im on day 8 of attempting oz tower. I do have enough DPS to kill dorothy but i'm kind of stumped on 42F atm. Let me know how far you guys got, and what the #1 tower rankings are for your world.

[quote=aaronpak]i dont think its possible for me to get 30min to dorothy even if i get everything down perfect. i think the best i can do is 22min, i calculated my run time accumulated all of them being perfectly done in a party. and for some reason even in my party, i have 5min less minutes than my party member o-o[/quote]

It's possible w/ all the strats and setups. In fact, 40 min is possible. Job matters very little if you're doing all the killing in a party

[quote=aaronpak]yeah problem with my server is that there are about only 2 people who do dorothy regularly excluding me, if based on KMS timeline my nerf is coming 3 months or less. i was aware of this prior to doing oz tower which is why i do my 200 floors everyday to not get rusty. 42,43,48 make me really nervous .__./ and i've heard that 49F is hard too, they'll apparently give you a monster image which is completely identical to a monster of the same category sometimes. mm... whats it about 47F that makes it hard for phantoms? seems that all we need to do is find an invisible switch then start killing the door?[/quote]

49f is a silhouette .....sand bunny F vs sand bunny M gl hf (-5 min wrong answer)

42f easy w/ a partner (you'd never do this solo on a dorothy attempt. never.)
43f there's 6 (?) questions that have no right answers right now and probably won't be fixed for a long while (11f question isn't impossible but "hard" if you kill)
48f easy if you map and write down/memorize all the movement (grind this stage)

47f phantoms have decent upward movement but not the best

Scania's best already cleared 48f and is the "best" in GMS (romantic is the ign i think and it's a mage)
The best time going into 47f in GMS is less than 58min (perfect 47~49f would mean a 30min time limit for dorothy) and there's time to be saved on that run too (which is why I pointed out that it's more than just phantoms/BM)

Yea, should have clarified myself so I'd be properly understood by people other than experienced tower climbers.

Good luck organizing the climbers in Bera.

@wiltung: Also gotta pray to RNG on f49, lol. See slime silhouette -> ragequit.

LOL what a useless/pointless statement. I hope you realize that it's not so much dorothy you should be concerned about but, rather, the 49 floors before her. You're gonna need a team of 10 people that are very familiar with tower to assist you on your tower run AND you're still gonna have to rely heavily on RNG for that run (gg glitched 43f and doing 47f as a phantom).

With that phantom nerf coming very soon, it's looking pretty bleak for you

Edit: Btw, it's actually closer to 1tril HP so even a non-hurricane class with a solid run (30min going into 49f) can solo dorothy.
@xXMCheifXx: Thank you....someone that understands

Doesn't matter. Doing the entire tower solo won't ever give you enough time to kill dorothy, even as a capping phantom.

^ thanks for the tip HoldStrong. i do have enough DPS to kill dorothy. I cap on arrow blaster as a phantom on cvell so i can def do it on dorothy. but yeah, getting to dorothy with 18minutes is going to be the problem =/

42 Isn't that bad after you figure out your routine there. Some classes can just do a once-through of that map without having to go back over it. Most classes usually have to kill 15-20 of each then run through the JQ again to get the last few kills because of the spawn balance. Once you figure out how you are supposed to go about it, it's really not that difficult, unless the RNG is not being your friend today.

I've gotten to 43 and the highest in our world is a Wild Hunter who made it to 47 (but cleared 46).
