Gauntlgrym sucks

I just did Gauntlgrym. I did all phases and the T2 Dungeon and I got 14 Grym coins in total for all that time. Didnt even get an item in the chest. I did it with a party and we used TS3.
The first phase was boring as hell.
The seconds phase was kinda fun.
The third phase - the T2 dungeon boss was even more boring than the first phase.
So all in all, it kinda sucked. You spend that much time not having fun for 14 coins.
Not doing that again. It would be nice if the PVP part could be done without the other parts..

The question is "So I have 2 characters all with BIS gear and I am tired of grinding the same old dungeons, PvP is meh and Gauntlgrym sucks in its current state so what now?". I have no good answer for them and have a feeling many will be looking for a new game soon.
They seriously need to boost the Item reward,Dungeon difficulty and the significance of Catapults/Giants etc.
There wasnt much adds at all. One CW can handle it. Everybody just stood there and attacked the boss. We did it with 4 players and I could shut my eyes and just spam mouse1. On CN you atleast have to pay attention or you die.
The hard part was not to fall asleep. But it took a long time and thats why its not worth it. 3 TR, 1 DC and 1 CW could make it faster.. :P
Yes, thats me. :P

Ahh, so what you're saying is... if they don't make a boss spam adds on you, they have no idea how to make it hard/interesting. All I needed to know, thanks.
Talk about a grind and a half to get that lackluster gear from the vendor. I am already tired of it and have only amassed 32 grym coins. They should give a special title to any player who gets the full set- " The grind king"
It needs some serious tweaking IMHO!
Yeah I'm patiently waiting for ESO as well and when it opens, even if it sucks half as bad as NW I won't be coming back to NW. Id rather pay a $15/mo subscription to play ESO over this unbalanced cash shop game. I just hope that ESO doesn't go free to play with a cash shop.
The game hasn't been "live" long, sure. But, don't you think that GG and other things were already made and ready to go? They made it, and it's boring. There must be zero communication at Cryptic, on what other devs are doing. If they didn't have it made already, then that is worse. That means that they are seriously unprepared, and it's showing. There isn't enough content as is. On top of that, there is no reason to play that content, except during DD's. Don't tell me to join a guild. I'm in a guild, with a lot of players. But, most just sit around not wanting to do anything, because there is no reason when you're more than likely going to get a <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> belt that won't sell, and no one will use it.
Even if they were to release new classes tomorrow, it is too late to save the game. The reason being is they keep going the wrong direction with trying to improve things. They are completely ignoring the player's complaints about how long the dungeons are with little to no reward for completing a dungeon the "intended" way. Just like today I ran through Karrandax during a DD and got blue loot, not even epic loot. Then later I ran through mad dragon to help some guildies and I was the only one in the group who got an epic reward, everyone else got blue items. It's a complete waste of time to spend an hour in a dungeon to get <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> that you can't even sell for any AD to make it worthwhile.
Gauntlgrym is not worth the effort. If it actually offered T3 pve gear and t2 pvp gear it might be worth the time. But as it currently is, it's not worth it, if you can run the other dungeons in half the time to get the same loot. The pvp gear is not worth how many times you need to repeat it. Think about it. If you have to run GG 30 times to get a complete set of T2 pvp gear, are you really going to keep running it for the pvp aspect just because you have a few more stat points? It won't make a difference to have it by that point. So you do all that just so you can do domination pvp for a little bit of an edge over the other pvpers? Really?
