Reaper HP ~ Can you solo a doom on 10 with meld? (Read 28425 times)

	Methods Tests on Reaper HP were conducted in 3 places. r10 Madstone Crater (Using the 7 entrance mobs), a level 26 quest on elite with CR 31 Reapers r10 Records of the Path in Tethyamar (Using the water elementals on the left), a level 33 quest on elite with CR 38 Reapers. This quest level is legendary as opposed to Madstone. r10 Finding Doris (Swimming past the rioters), a level 34 quest on elite with CR 39 Reapers. The test was conducted with my sorc using Iceberg. I did about 5.2k damage to a reaper then took a screen shot. I then did a pixel count on the remaining hp. You can divide the iceberg damage by the percentage life taken to find the total life. (Iceberg Damage) / ((Max hp pixel - Remaining hp pixel) / (Max hp pixel)) = Mob HP It is very important to note that I was the only one in the quest. Does dungeon scaling effects reaper HP? Results For madstone, all reapers (excepting dooms) had ~9.5k hp. Doom had ~19k hp. For Memories all reapers (excepting dooms) had 17k hp. Doom had ~60k hp. For Dorris the doom had ~66k hp. On elite this is ~440k hp. Discussion Assuming that 66k hp is a reasonable approximation---then you'd need ~30k dps to kill a doom reaper in 15 seconds (or the duration of Meld). Dungeon scaling can double the HP of monsters. For this reason I think that you want group dps of 60k to comfortably handle doom reapers in Sharn without a tank. My personal experience has vindicated this. It takes about two well built dps to comfortably swallow a doom reaper on r10.

Since hardcore opened, the pool of high skull players has plummeted so out of necessity I've been duoing r10 dailies.� Your analysis aligns with my experience.� Lately we've been including a third non-optimized toon, and it takes longer to kill a Doom than Meld lasts.�

	Been duoing r10 with inq/ice sorc; 2 strong DPS with good timing on burst/breathe can definitely get dooms down in meld window. Sharn dooms seem to have a bit more HP so requires a little creative kiting/tanking, but definitely doable.

	I cannot kill a r10 doom reaper with meld. But here's a tactic I saw used on ~R8 sharn pug with no heals but two tanks: Tanks juggled aggro. Once one person had a lot of stacks of doom, the other person took it. Then stacks expired on tank one, so he grabbed it again. Etc. All this while random wannabe melees (including myself) were slowly chipping at the reaper.

I tanked two dooms in r10 roll call and was able to survive even after 7 stacks Screw double dipping.

That might scale better than we think if they ever introduce r10-r20.
