Wondering design thought process

I am currently doing the last chapter of exploration in this month eq.

I am doing 3.1 … I often wonder why kabam designs the maps as they do but this one really got me wondering even more.

You get rewarded for a parry.
But we going to make it very hard to do so.

Let’s make the first parry fail
Then make them unstoppable while not bleeding.
Let’s also add a disorient for parrying to let the second parry fail often as well …

And all of this whole the game is having trouble with game controls.

This is just punishing game design which enhances the experienced buggy feeling. Other maps have this as well it’s always a few maps like 2-3 that have something like this … that relies on the part of the game that is currently broken and enhances the effects of the bugs.

I don’t understand why they just don’t use other nodes they have such a large pool of options but still using these kind of nodes

    Add bleed immune champs, champs like maw and havok who you cannot reliably parry and definitely not with a disorient on. You have a winning combination.

    Havok and maw aren’t the problem. The problem is bishop who melts you when you bleed him, colossus who you can’t bleed even passively and CGR (see colossus issue) are on this map. Lol

    Jax said this was a mistake and wasn't supposed to happen. I still say the designer for it was having a bad day and decided this would be humorous. But thats just a theory...A GAME THEORY

    Since adding the tags in Cav EQ, Kabam has struggled with the Merc/GOTG chapter in terms of the challenge and fun, at least compared to the other chapters. This month was particularly frustrating. Doable, sure, but fun? Nope.

    Try 7 later today on the Havok … feels completely broken while most likely acting completely like intended

    Agree with bishop as well but none of these are actually a huge problem. They all can be countered. It’s the design philosophy that the OP was talking about.
