Can players share the 250 kills for the Raging Mage world change?

Question

If players are in a party and hit the same yielothax during the Mage Tower world change, are they able to share the 250 kill counter or does the highest damage get the kill?

Comments

do you mean reward or bosstiary?

I am talking about the 250 kills required to be eligible to kill the Raging Mage. I have no idea if players are able to share the monster kills to be eligible or if only the highest damage gets the kill point to be eligible for the boss.

I believe so, however I've never properly tested this. I remember having access to the Mage with my ED after hunting duo with a friend but that's about it. Hopefully we'll get a more detailed answer soon.

Answer 1

Hello, Libi!

I have a party on Collabra that usually kill the raging mage. In order to do so, we divide so each of us kill 250 yielothax and gather together to kill the boss when it gets mortal (after killing 2k yielothax).

But after seeing your question, I decided to test if, in a party that shares experience, would be possible to count the 250 kill counter for both of the players on the party. You can check on this first two screenshots the results:

As you can see below, we killed together 300 yielothax:

We decided to kill them by making the second player (Daslei Errepe Otraveiz) trhowing some avalanches in order to make sure that I would be the one to frag every one of the yielothax (you can see above the difference in damage between us). As you can see below, he used very few supplies during the hunt

After we finished the 2k yielothax on server, we made the boss mortal and then tested if he could get up on the floor

AND HE COULD!

And to be sure that he didn't have any yielothax killed before so he got it accumulated, I asked him to print his bestiary after the 300 kill (in fact he participated on 299 since I one-shoted one yielothax)

In resume: Yes, it is possible to share the kill counter as long as you share experience on the party. Hope I helped you out, it was fun to make the testing and be proofed otherwise (I really didn't believe it would count). 

A special thanks to Hashimuerta, who used his maker to help me test this out

Answer: Testing the Yielothax Kill Counter in a Party

Great test! You’ve confirmed something very useful for the community: the Yielothax kill counter for the Furious Mage is shared among party members, as long as they are in an exp-share party.

How It Works

1. Shared Kill Counter

   • If the party stays together (with shared experience), all Yielothax kills count for every member, even if only one player lands the final hit.

   • In your test, you killed 300 Yielothax together, and both players made progress (despite the damage difference).

2. Check Bestiary to Confirm

   • As shown in the screenshot, the player Daslei Errepe Otraveiz had 299 Yielothax registered (one less because you killed one solo). This proves the game tracks group kills.

3. Boss Becomes Killable for All

   • After reaching 2,000 total Yielothax kills on the server, the Furious Mage became "mortal," and all party members could step on the ground to fight it.

Tips for Groups

✅ Split up in different areas to farm Yielothax faster, but keep the party active.
✅ No need for everyone to deal damage—just being in an exp-share party counts the kills.
❌ Watch out for accidental solo kills (like the Yielothax you killed alone), as they won’t count for others.

Conclusion

You debunked a myth! Exp-share party = shared Yielothax kill counter. This saves time and effort for groups farming the Furious Mage.

Great job, and thanks for sharing your test! If you need further confirmation, just ask.
