I have a question.

How I does aggro?

I tend to wind up adding being aggro to my multitasking list when I crew for DMS, but due to lack of knowledge and preparation, I also tend to do a half-assed job of it. If I'm going to keep winding up being leader/healer/aggro, I figure I should do a bit of research into the aggro part of the equation.

Healing,wish especially.
How I do it anyways,and I end up being aggro 99.9% of the time, is healing 75+% of the time, attacking and whatnot the other times.
When it comes to night frights, shift through your rings like your hand is on fire,my wrist hurts so much after NF battles I switch it that fast.
Keep switching, but keep bandaging yourself while doing so. Usually able to keep NFs the entire duration of the fight under control doing so.

Funny- that's what I generally do. Wish is just about the only non-buff I wind up raging in DMS.

My usual DMS set is Mantis, Hack, Adren, debuff, Bandage, Wish, buff, Meat- any changes you could suggest?

My set is cat, wish,bandage, meat, solar, hack, buff, buff.
It all depends on how much people heal, like I'm constantly looking at crew panel and healing even when I probably shouldn't be, so that's a huge factor.
Diagnose also is a huge aggro magnet, even though it isn't the most desirable to bring.

Just curious, why is it called the 100% room?

It's called the 100% room because your avatars are at 100% size unlike the rest of the maze. You'll be a similar size to in the Gnome General's house.

Really? All this time I thought it was because "you are 100% done with the annoying maze".

Zzyli - Zzy as in Xylophone, Li as in leaf

This is also a valid interpretation blaugh . That's what I thought too until I actually got there & saw that I was massive.

Accentuate the positive and eliminate the negative...

I was thinking it might be that. Thanks

OH!

Hate in DMS isn't shared across the room. It seemed this way at first because of the high enemy levels. (attacks dealt less damage and heals had to be used more, which typically gather hate on almost if not all monsters on screen)

But in my 11.4 crews it's common for me to have aggro on what I am attacking while someone else has the other monsters' aggro. ^^ Though this is usually only true at start of room.. once healing hate gets time to build up, it's hard to steal with attacks. :3

I'm almost never aggro besides this one or two monsters, even though I'm certain my damage hate highly outclasses 1/2 of anyone's healing, presumably because all my hate dies with the monster while the healing hate keeps building. xd

Improved aggro guide, made some tweaks to wording of quest info.
