Please Revert Masters back to Previous Difficulty

Masters is a joke now. 1.2-1.6k PI opponents, unduped Spideys? At least up to the previous month you had to physically play Masters. Now it’s just autoplay up to certain nodes.

With a new Uncollected EQ I think that adjusting Master downward will allow a more sensible progression to it from heroic and probably allow a larger pool of players to shoot for legend titles. If the legend program becomes an issue or high end players feel it has been diminished due to lower difficulty then I suggest making Master accessible to all Uncollected without the need to complete Heroic and include the Uncollected for legend runs.
I felt that the previous difficulty was just fine. The current one.. just feels like heroic + a little harder bosses.
Well, I run through it every month and 100% the first two chapters so my opinion is biased because I would love to finish the lot but I reserve my actual experience until I have a go.
It just seemed to me previously that the step up was too much, roster and skill notwithstanding but for someone of my calibre the game seems stale, nowhere to go and no hope of getting to 5/50. Besides my obvious lack of commitment there are probably more players in my boat than yours.
In a couple of days I'll be into Master, if it as "easy" as you say then I will eat my words because I do know the difference between easy and beyond my capability.
What did you think of Uncollected EQ? Did the difficulty match the rewards?
I have seen the angst re: icephoenix.
Oh yes all content should be directly catered to you, your majesty.
Things change in life. Get a grip. You sound like a fool.
I fully support this move.
Shoo eunuch. You’re not needed here.
Masters rewards previously were basically free as well. But at least it needed some effort to be attained.
Uncollected was pretty easy tbh. Or rather, easier than expected. I was expecting 5.2-5.3 level of difficulty but it was far from it. Bosses caught me by surprise but it is far from impossible.
Even the much lamented Ice Phoenix was alright pre-nerf as the paths were simple so I always reached her with 3-4 full health champs. Just needed to play well and not get hit while tanking the cold snap damage. 5*R4s have 22-24k HP so despite 18-20k cold snap damage, you’ll still have 4-6k HP buffer to one shot her.
Same. But it was 2 months ago for me. 4/40s of the right champ can get u 100%. If you know the basics of baiting specials and parry and dexterity, it shouldn't be a problem. The only problem should be the last 2 bosses which u probably are not confident in fighting
Btw, I don’t understand why you can’t get 5/50s now that they’re so readily available. A group of my friends started playing recently (2-6months ago). The one who started earliest has a r4 Gwenpool and 4-5 5/50s already.
Yup. And it’s still very much doable with minimal item usage. You’ll improve and get used to the difficulty in a few months and each subsequent Masters event (of the previous difficulty) will get easier.
Dumbing down Masters just makes the rewards available to players who aren’t ready for that content yet. This in turn makes it so that new players expect to be able to faceroll every content they are given, and they whine/cry when they can’t.
Like how acts 1/2/3 are irrelevant now as new players can just autoplay it with 4*s pulled from phc, where older players had to learn skills to overcome challenges using 2* champs.
