Gigantmax is so hard. I actually missed the last wave of GMax raid and I didn't want to miss it again. So I commuted 2 and a half hours further into the city to join a bigger group of people to get Gigantamax Kingler. Got 4 of them, it was a nice experience but I wish I didn't have to spend a total of 5 hours to get this thing

@Tagman50 feel bad man. I learned today, gmax mons are special trades ... Classic NIA with that one. Means even if I got someone to help us via trades, they'd be capped at dispersing 1 gmax Mon per day. Kinda makes me just want to abandon the whole system lol.

This event starts in about 6 hours here. Only 1 meet up in an hour radius of my house has me concerned that the excitement for this feature is falling off already. Yes its very cold today (29F/-1 C) but hardcore players will usually just drive. Feature definitely needs a reimagining regarding accessibility but have to wait and see
@Tagman50Күн бұрын
There was definitely a lot less hype this time around. I guess most kinda fail to see its relevance... or maybe write it off as anything worth chasing due to it looking like a frail Santa Claus. But as far as Gmax battles go in future, it's the best water type we have in game now and will be for a long time. But compared to lapras where we had over 50 in person (on time), we had 19 accounts at the start, peaked at 29 then it was all downhill from there. I'd honestly freeze if I were there 😆 But there's definitely changes in the pipeline, just don't know how long the pipe is 🤦♂️

Congrats on completing with 7 & getting the shiny! We had 8, but no Gmax counters & our Dmax counters weren't all powered up or maxed levelled (some weren't even the recommended counters lol) but we got it well into the Red using 6 mushrooms, we only lost as it went enraged at 5mins & started KOing all our counters with a single attack. This happened 3 or 4 times. We also felt it was attacking way more frequently than is usual, but we weren't sure, so it is good to know others were thinking the same as well. We were so close to getting our first local Gmax done this time- I'm hoping we can get 3 or 4 more people to come join us for the next Gmax battles as we should be able to complete them before it goes enraged with one more team helping out- I mean if the enraged timer went off at 6mins instead of 5mins, we'd have completed it today with 8 under powered counters! New group has been made & so far there has been an uptick in the number of people turning up in person to events... like 6 real life people turned up today & interacted with each other... I can't recall the last time more than 2 people turned up in person for a raid day & actually interacted outside of rayfest! Thank you for the advice on community building, it was as I suspected & feared lol. If you are planning to come up this way feel free to join :)
@Tagman50Күн бұрын
I'll for sure join the group :) I've every intention too play an event back home at some point, though I don't know when 😅 Exciting to hear we're at least getting closer! And I'm sure it would've been much easier too had it not been attacking so much, it definitely felt a lot more frequent than we've had previously in Gmax battles. At first I was thinking maybe this is how the "scaling" to different group sizes worked. Larger the group, more frequent the attacks. But we seemed to be getting hit just as much with 7 players compared to the peak lobby at 29.

@Tagman50Күн бұрын
Hey bro, yeah had one of the players (Shinytinas) on site remind me it was the collection limit that increased only, but not the storage. So similar to how the extra passes on raid days work, forces us to use one before we can collect anymore. Before he told me that, I had the same thought as you did.
@anarukoia941423 сағат бұрын
@ hey bro yeah I came to that conclusion in the end considering the wording was abit doggy… but what really bugged me was that in the shop they were selling a box with 3200 particles an a few other things in it for 650 coins… taking my particles over the 1000 cap limit to 4000+… doing this kinda makes the cap seem really stooopid in the end, an makes niantic really look abit greedy to be honest

On the first battle, you didn't dodge, because it should show dodge in the text on bottom right always if you accurately dodge. You want to slide and not hit anything and he will sit for like 2 sec and then shift bacc to center. I slide twice for dodge usually and the 2nd one usually registers but I start dodging as soon as the yellow comes up but sometimes slide on red one time and it counts but you need to see the dodge text or else it doesn't. Sometimes im seeing people dodge but pressing buttons still or spamming dodge and its not working correctly because they messing it up. Good lucc.
