Hello all,
First off let me start by saying I like Neverwinter, and i want it to succeed. I could spend some time and echo what lots of people have said and describe the things i like most, but what I want to talk about is the End game content, and well all dungeon content will fit as well.
First off Devs i don't think i can say this loud enough, If you don't think the solo boss is a difficult enough fight, the solution is NOT more adds.
I have run every dungeon in the game on epic, and every boss, in every dungeon, on every difficulty is the same. Kill the boss as fast as possible, before the adds swarm you to death. There have been encounters where we killed the boss and adds indeffinately spawned till we gave up on the dungeon.
Epic Castle Neverwinter is a joke, the last dungeon in game to complete and the 3rd boss had over 100 adds on the platform within 4 minutes of pull. HOW DO YOU HANDLE 100 ADDS? and 2hrs worth of adds to the first boss?
Spellplague Cavern's 2nd boss spawns adds from pools. I've killed all the adds, and then they just keep spawning. I have a screenshot of this encounter with 100s or adds that continued to respawn long after the pools were destroyed, the boss was dead, the loot had vanished, and yet there were still thousands of adds,and they were still spawning enough to give me video lag. which doesn't happen.
I can go on, and on, and on. And if you're currently lvl 60, and have done any dungeons you can agree, the boss encounters are broken. If it's not difficult enough do NOT ADD MORE ADDS!
The standard party for running a dungeon should not be dc 2x tr 2x cw. You said you fixed threat? how does a tank hold treat over 100+ adds? or even 20? the adds are ridiculous and it is ruining the end-game content of Neverwinter. I don't want to see this game fail, but if you don't do something about the adds, people are going to stop playing. The content should be hard, not impossible. The strategy for every boss should not be wizards chain singularity adds as bet you can while the TR burn the boss down and the DC has a mini-stroke running around trying to keep a healing circle down, because you can't cast a single target heal when the only thing you can see on your screen is adds, and even without adds the single target heals are very difficult to target, and pretty much weak sauce.
I know some troll is going to respond to this with some stupid remark about it being WOW or I wouldn't mind the adds if i were super elite like them. I don't care keep your comments to the subject matter.comments, this isn't it.
