New Dragon-Mireu

Awakening.


what if?

Seems unlikely, I doubt it's that rare for someone to get awakening and then disconnect or leave prior to mireu dying. It can be a considerable timesink on small servers and I imagine people go to DI without being able to commit an extra hour to Mireu. Would be very poor design if so.

I'd bet it's a specific element, damage type, or something like that. I've seen it take 5 minutes or more on leviathan a few times, but never had it cost a win. If it was awakening, that would mean the person went afk and came back just in time to save the kill.

The brew effect was already disproven. That was my first thought years ago.

Since I've seen the bonus reset a few times on Bahamut, my theory is that occasionally if Mireu gets beaten too many times in a row, it'll just eventually have a run where it can't be beaten.

The whole refusing to die mechanic and randomized "proc" are convenient smokescreen.

Though I suppose... Is there a server where Mireu's always been beaten? Like that one bad *** server that never lost the *** Candy for like 12 years?

It's something really stupid like it gets a +1 counter for every trust it final KO's and it kills thousands of trusts

Can rule out the 8 basic elements, I've dealt all 8 types of damage on my RDM.
Unless you have to deal a specific element AND do beyond a certain threshold of damage, I can't disprove that of course.

Some server did indeed have a really, really long Mireu streak, but I do not remember which one it was.

So SE moved the report about Mireu not dying into Accepted Bugs, so at least it didn't get immediately thrown into This is a feature.

Better very very late than never I guess.

They’ll post a video of how to take out that last 1% with zooms in on the chat log.

Need to dual wield kraken club for the last 1%

It's because no one would cast Xzone because they wanted their personal points instead of worrying about the server streak. You guys failed Mireu's selflessness check.

Probably thinking of Asura, our previous loss was in August 2022. Our consecutive monsters count was over 80,000

And Eiryl simply shows up and screws a 2 years winning streak.

Figures.

I just imagined the scene:

Eiryl pops with a tarutaru avatar onion-head type, properly dressed in the eminent gear, swinging a eminent dagger and yelling:

“Hey you slobs, hit harder!”

“Hit faster!”

“You good for nothing, hes not moving and there are only 5 minutes left”.

“You ***, are you guys even trying?”

“WooHoo we lost a Mireu good job everyone”
