Ok i've been farming Gold Rush for four days now with nothing. I have learned however that certain groups are much better at effeciently killing Gold Rush with as little casualties as possible. But with people not continuing through all games, you tend to get jumbled teams. Some of the best random teams i've been in are:
1. A well balanced group of two archers (atleast one should be well armored and experienced) two experienced mages and one semi-good tank with a strong level 50 set like Hate for taking Gold's heavy hits.
2. I had a team where me and two level 53 archers killed Gold Rush.( Very fun, and challenging)
3. A team of 3 good archers, and two good mages.
4. BEST ONE SO FAR: Me a level 52 archer and all the other members mages that love to spam all attacks, buffs, debuffs, and heals. One of the mages was a level 49 dex mage, but the others were all suited out in int gear. I had on a scattered array of level 50 equips (mostly cyber) and we totally annihalated Gold rush in under a minute with only one death (my fault as i got too close when he was buffed). I seriously wonder if mages are the best class as they have fairly good armor, with constant aoe attacks keeping them out of their enemies way, and they can heal giving them a large advantage over most opponents.
With all the teams listed above I might use one or two manna or health pots a run if the teams a little slow or unorganized, helping me save alot of money, but i don't think I ever even touched the health pot button the entire level with this last team. The whole level was like 1 min. even with boss. BTW did I mention highest level was 53? I read like all of Physios guides as they have made me an "epic" archer allowing me to tank, and even solo gold rush (even though I power leveled him in AO3 from level 36) when needed so the team can respawn, we tried his rush bait technique this level and I was the bait, but I never had to draw back a safe distance as the mages melted enemies around me before they could even attack me.
No other class can spam attacks like them to stay alive, i've seen teams of all mages solo every level in the game just to farm or level!! They, in my opinion, truly are the most dangerous class in the game. Any agreements/opposing arguments? Anyone else got a crazy story of how epic mage teams can be when they know what they're doing?
If so plz post below!
