  • Its faster to manually create a group from zone chat than waiting in the queue. Also players who put in the effort to search for a group or other players will most likely have more experience and skill than the usual queue dwellers. Finally you get to see the GS of the players before entering the dungeon. There is nothing…
  • Irrelevant because it does from one hit in epic dungeons. Cats and stones ftw.
  • If you are planing on playing in epic dungeons then forget it. Cat / stone are the only viable pets. Everything else is fluff for showing off in town.
  • You CAN beat T2 dungeons with T1 gear but you have to go about it in a clever way. What many still fail to understand is that you are not rewarded for merely participating in a dungeon run. There is no guarantee to win or to get loot whenever you spend time in the game. You have to learn the best practices of a dungeon…
  • It was high time for this, especially for PvE. Lately our fast run group for Karrundax / Spider consisted of 3 TRs, 1 DC and 1 CW. No need for any GF / GWF. 3 TRs pwn everything so fast that there is no threat or a need for a complex strategy. Now its just: "Ignore all adds and kill the boss.". Meanwhile our guild GFs and…
  • Because over a span of three games said playerbase still keeps on playing and paying. Why should they change if you keep paying? In most cases companies only change when extreme profit losses are incoming.
  • Would only work if the reward of killing the adds is high enough. During DD a group can do Templs of the Spider 4 times with the usual fast route. That totals 32 purples. If killing all adds normally results in double the time needed for a playthrough that would be 16 purples + X. So basically in this case the adds must…
  • GF kites the adds around the arena, while the group kills the boss and archers, then loot the items and wipe - the adds will disappear. CWs only do single target damage on boss. No AOE or they die. No need to thank me. Oh you think thats exploiting? Well I think its intentional because it IS impossible to kill all adds. So…
  • My questions: - What are you going to do to encourage more players to play DCs and GFs? Currently there is an EXTREME lack of especially DCs. Have you even tried to find out why players do not want to play these two classes anymore? - The economy is broken. Most T2 items can be bought for under 30k AD. Players reach level…
  • Make sure you have a good build like those posted here and know what you are doing in dungeons. After that just dont care because its not your fault. The DC is not made to keep everyone at 100% HP all of the time. For dungeons I slot astral shield (mandatory), sunburst (mandatory) and divine glow so I am actually only…
  • I am pretty sure that they are trying to stretch the exploit fixing for as long as possible. Hardly anyone stops playing because of exploits but a lot of players would definitly leave if they were forced to face those adds.
  • A DD run results in 8 purples (3x boss + 5x chest). Your solution is an extra purple for double the time? Thats 9 purples when the group could get 16 in the same time with 2 fast runs. Not helping. I like the idea though that killing mobs will result in an extra purple drop from the boss. I play a CW and we get through…
  • What is it that you enjoy during a fight with adds? Its easy, its boring, its like taking the trash outside. There is neither a challenge nor a gain when killing them. Also kicking stuff over ledges is not an exploit but something the devs have added to help us kill the adds faster. Its common sense to use the quickest…
  • Even if they made the adds worth my time I would still try to skip past them. They are simply BORING. No challenge and generic behaviour. The only thing I can bring myself to is to throw them all off some cliff somewhere. I want to see your attitude after doing 50 spider runs like I have. After that you would do everything…
  • With the current dungeon design short cuts are needed. The content is so boring that I cannot condemn anyone for bypassing everything. The adds are uninspring, the bosses are uninspiring, the dungeons are uninspiring linear, the complexity is low. Its just brain off and rush through. Why would I ever want to do those pre…
  • My point is that the developers are not targeting the players which have enough time to finish all of the content and then post about it on the forum. They simply care more about the casuals. From a casual gamers perspective the game has PLENTY of content. Enough to make them stay for a few months which is the main…
  • The casual player plays an MMO for three months and then loses interest even if there is more content. The enthusiast is a long time player who can be tricked into staying: just create the prospect of upcoming new content. The casual players create the most amount of revenue and are thus the most important. The enthusiasts…
  • I think PWE did not expect T1 stuff to become so cheap so fast. After I got 60 I bought my T1 set for 50k AD. Instantly all seals and NPC item vendors were obsolete. The normal player progression is completely broken. Has anyone ever had the need to buy items from vendors for AD or seals? Definetly not in end game. I guess…
  • Ask yourself this: How are you contributing to PWEs profit? If you are filling up the AH with T1 and T2 items for cheap you are actually hurting their profit. New players can buy their high end equip for 15€ and will stop playing soon. An empty AH will force a new player to stay in the game far longer and pay more than 15€…
  • If this goes live the game will become extremely grindy. PWE wants to maximize the time a player stays with the game but they are doing it the wrong (easy) way. The grind will make the game far more inconvenient which will boost the value of the zen shop items. People will pay a lot to speed up the dungeon runs. After all,…
  • Completely agree. It was so much fun to jump around up there while waiting in queue. Well... I found a way onto on of the houses, but Im not telling.
  • Agreed. I hope these exploits get fixed soon. I am not playing to exploit my way to the best gear. Whats the point in that anyway? Its the challenge that makes the game fun. Exploiting is the fast track to either a ban or "finishing" the game without any real satisfaction. For a while I tried to get into a public group…
