WORLD BOSS – PHASE 3

Despite all the confusion and server issues, would be nice to have a topic to discuss this last phase of the fight.

We got quite some interesting things. First one to notice is the glory points multiplier, not sure if it says 100 for everyone, could be dependent on the number of ships that were sent, could someone verify this? :?
Secondly, the boss health shows up in percentage. This is quite the turn of events, it could mean that the health is time limited, wont matter if there are any attacks or not, will not go for more than a week. This is just a hypothesis, but the announcement gives us some clues, which leads to..
Third point, the announcement:
"Hookah's servants have been defeated too late, for the demigod has managed to join this world!"
Funny typo there in the name, for those versatile in the english language. :)
So it seems not all the minions were meant to be defeated, which meant that phase 2 was time limited as well, unlike some people thought. Which gives the hint that each phase isn't meant to run for more than a week. So you could rest your souls and chill out. Get as many attacks as you can and collect those sweet glory points.

The WB on the english server seems to lose health much faster than on DE1 server (95% vs 96%). 100 multiplier for me, too.
There also seems to be a "lose" scenario as well:

"Subject: Your army withdraws
Your army has fought bravely but the price was high. It had to retreat to accumulate new and regenerate to before it can make a further attack on Haokah."

I am not sure, but the multiplier could depend on either attack amount/damage counter or the time players have spent killing the boss. Meaning the faster they kill it, the greater the multiplier.

I don't think that it's just a percentage. The killing goes faster on some servers than on others, I think. I'm not sure, though.

And yes, I didn't even notice the Hookah thing, hahaha! Now that you've mentioned it, it's kind of funny :)

Tbh, I don't think it's 'lose' scenario, I think it's a general boss-combat report. As in, you're fighting the boss but it's tough, and you have to make a tactical retreat.

Yup, now I realized it's not a loss scenario. My bad, I wasn't paying attention. :)

Indeed, we can't get a win scenario yet since the boss isn't defeat.

It seems there is some new intel, glory points multiplier seems to be 100 for everyone and it decreases by one each day the boss isn't defeat.
At the current rate, roughly 5% off the boss per day, that would take us 20 days and -20 points from the multiplier. I haven't checked what the percentage really is, since server is down again.
Still rises question as to what affects the world boss's health, number of attacks, damage, both? :?

This is an interesting theory. Worth having a closer look. ;)

1000 seriously ?
On french server :
With actual rate, he is finished in 16 days
Phase 2 was 7,5 days and 2k minions.
I vote for 4k or 5k

2k is enough.
