ok here's the story ive been spending quite some frustating hours trying to cap Hundred Blades on my canthan warrior in the canthan mission from the warrior construct now after some trys i finally got him to spawn at the end but my party dealt with him last thus not allowing me time to use my capture signet (cause off the cutscene) and thus having to go again yust to get that elite

now i thought of some things that would make elite capping a little easier mission wise

1. make capture signet instant cast

this should allow you to use it before the cutscene unless youre dead

2. longer wait till cutscene

simply allowing people to be ressurected so they can use it

3.if a person had a capture signet in there skillbar and the mission ends any boss killed 5 minutes before the cutscene can be choosen a skill from

(only 1 skill max offcourse)

so... opinions ?

Maybe they just need to change that specific mission like they had to change Iron Mines when everyone freaked out about the cutscene not letting them get barrage.

I got the elite after going into Sunjiang District (Explorable) and found the warrior, killed it, capped the elite
I don't see a need for a fix althought it would be nice to cap skills at the end

You dont need to cap it at the mission, bring a group of guildie or henchie(i did it with hanchie) and go to the Sunjiang district explorable area. you can cap hundred blades there.

Still not a bad idea for somewhere like Dragon's Lair. Damn it, I don't even know why they need those 5 second cutscenes showing you walking through a door, but if you kill the facet near the door, or some wammo runs through, that's your cap gone.

Ya dragon's lair is a buggy buggy level. disappearing henchmen..disappearing pets...ya....

whenever i cap there, i specify to PULL the boss away from the portal so when he dies, the warrior next to him doesnt activate it instantly. :/

Warrior's Construct spawns in the explorable area also....If you are afriad of Cutscenes dealing with the mission.

Thats how I ended up getting Ranger Construct's elite when groups always dealt with him last.

actually I've started the capsig and someone went through in dragons lair, I had the menu open on next map and got the cap. Im not sure where the cutoff is, but if you go through at least once the capsig is activated it still works in dragons lair.

yeh... actually i never got why that cap siggy takes 2 sec to cast...

and yeh dragon's lair is a problem, esp in degen realm...
"any1 want to cap?!"
"any1?!"
"are we ALL set?!"
then when every1 is half hp, some 1 will become impatient and step into the circle...
