The cabbage patch notes indicate they increased the difficulty of the Act III TT bosses, and i am curious why they make the good money makers harder in this game, was nerfing nirvana not enough?

    It's to discourage low DD-ers to do instances. Now only high DD will be able to finish the instance in under 4 hours before it resets. b:bye

    i can respect a decision to keep out low levels from the instances, but profit margins are not what they used to b, so why make something take longer in which the profits are predicated on how quickly and how many runs can b done in x time?

    Ok so first people complain that TTs have become nothing but sources of quick income for people with 5 APS.

    When they do something about that, people start whining that it makes things ACTUALLY HARDER.

    Now wait, what was the point of this game again?

    Well, prices go up because less people farm it, so the mats will sell more for more time spent. Benefiting people like me with high DD cause I will probably still farm it.

    I'm just waiting for the server to come back up to see how hard they made it.

    But the past few patches have indicated, "If you're not 5.0, you can't farm anymore."

    So will venos be able to even solo 3-1 anymore for their own gear/make money? I thought the point of the herc was to be able to solo tank stuff or am I wrong about burning 200$? AKA this place is already a you-know-what in the butt and this makes it even more annoying. Stop taking shots from PW-CN and just let us have an uncorrupted version b:angry

    i just have a nagging suspicion this is another attempt to force cash shopping, and that would just b a shame, and there is a great satisfaction in farming great gear without having to cash shop,and i know they need to make monies, but there will always b someone spending cash on the game due to rl time constraints, why not keep the tenuous balance they nearly have now?

    I agree, it makes all the nubs more likely to CS.

    It makes more of the old-school farmers more money.

    I'm curious how a squad of 95-99's who are actually TRYING to farm their tt99 gear and not heavey csers; newer to the game (so not alot of money saved f/ merchanting etc. will EVER be ale to do a full 3-3 run w/ the changes now in under 4 hrs. Sure the OP geared ppl will make a killing off of this now and now we get even more 100's running around who NEVER get their tt99/Lunar gear now cuz of this.

    P.S. OG hit me up for some more of those 3-3's then b:victory

    See, Olba, the thing is....

    It's STILL quick income for people with 5 APS. The recent patches don't change a thing for them.

    If you're in a squad with "average" players, on the other hand, then you get screwed royally.

    Nobody's complaining about the difficulty, per se, but about the fact that you have to either spend a ton of cash, be a top-tier merchant, or know/be a part of the elites of your server to farm basic gear.


    I'd understand if they ramped up the difficulty for just 3-3, for instance, but 3-1 as well? That's just the equivalent of telling the people who are just able to start trying to farm it for gear or coin that they should go jump off a bridge. For those of us who already found it as easy, on the other hand, absolutely nothing has changed.

    remember the mat value will not exceed the chipping price, and it is close enough to that now, all this does is reduce non cs profits, for the grinders. Mat value has a cap, and this just makes coin farming harder for us non rl'rs

    I rarely do instances anymore... if this is a attempt to get people to use cash on the game it is having the opposite effect for me. I don't feel I should pay them to modify existing instances and not introduce any new ones outside the problematic new Forest Ruins.

    They might as well start brambling the bosses to force people to DD more slowly or they die, ROFL.

    i dont really understand this update...

    so, bosses wont hit harder or anything, just random aggro?

    and if its random aggro, magic users/archers keep their distance, the barb should easily be able to regain aggro (with flesh ream) before getting to them, right ... ?

    as for melees, well i suppose only assassins would be screwed then, as others (bms) would hopefully be using HA xD

    .... or do i have it all wrong?

    all of this making it harder stuff probably just so you can't farm coins as easy, so you would have to cash shop to get stuff easier ;p

    PW is a business, if they can get you to spend more cash then why should they change anything for the people that play?

    Work this out - If everyone on PW spends $10 a week on gold how much money does PWE make? The answer tells you one thing only, they only want money.
