Is Time to Bring Back Hard Questing Content

Would say changing story quest to make it more stream lined and easier has been an overall net positive for game and the players. But I would be lying if I said I don't miss the challenge and how upset I would get going through 6.2 pre nerf. I think when variant content comes ( if it does) that should be the place where the summoners who love and love the feeling of not being able to do content day one can get that feeling and challenge that old variant and story content use to offer. How do you think.

The hard content is the wow sos stuff and more to be announced most likely

Someone watched Brian’s last video he?

I really miss hard content. It’s like he said. Back then you needed signature champs which fulfil the specific requirements to succeed.

Todays like hmm nothing special really. Everything has its pros and cons

You could always do story quests with lower ranked champs, if it is too easy for you.

Do that new Carina challenge of Tigra Jabari Avengers.
That'll keep you entertained

Story mode imo is not what should be made into “challenge content.” I do wish it was slightly harder, just so it doesn’t feel like a paragon eq, but story should remain reasonable for the casual player.

What I feel we could use is some sort of repeatable challenge content that we can come back to multiple times. Sorta like eq but probably structured a bit differently. I know that sos is basically repeatable challenge content, but sos is more so a boss rush than a legitimate quest, and it doesn’t require that much planning you just use a champ for an objective that the community says is good for it.

I am however very excited for the upcoming content in august. Seems like a lot more planning will have to be done for it.

Not on story content ,..I believe that ship has sailed.
There are so many that aren’t motivated to advance progression brackets that kabam has incorporated different avenues for them to do so.
Whatever players reasons may be for sitting in limbo this is the reality, and creating story content again the likes of pre nerf act 6 is a sure fire way to exacerbate this trend.
To add,..kabam has been very generous lately with content directed at end game players,..with the likes of Necro / Wow and Sos.

How much harder do these people expect content to be when they're parading around 7R3 champs and 6R5 Ascended champs etc. Content has been scaled down in difficulty but it still hard relatively when you consider the types of rosters people are now rolling with.

So much for protecting the game economy ... I said this way back when that things would get this way when you essentially poop on the game economy .. and now look at everyone's roster.

One content i hope they revisit though should be back issues like i know they said they wanted to do something with it but i think if we really want difficult that is the place to try out new difficulty levels again and wish it never got abandoned as people enjoyed the revisiting of old content but with new level

BRING BACK VARIANTS.

Variants based on saga champ pool and storyline is just a missed opportunity. Or a Third difficulty of back issues work as well

GinjabredMonsta

I would say yes, but the problem is we have too much content in my opinion

So barricade new players behind what you think is a reasonable difficulty?

Did you do 100% Necropolis, SOS, and CCP Challenges??
....are you Valiant?

smdam38

Who makes that call?

Joker1976

They need to make content twice as difficult as necro rewarding 1 gold per path and the title “look at me,,,i love to flex” with a exclusive Herc profile pic 😂
Like seriously if some folks like extreme difficulty in content,..be creative and revisit Necro with 5 stars or something.
If you love this sort of thing,..the reward itself is just doing it,..by whatever creative means you can.

A year ago I would've said no leave it the way it is but I do think story content should go back to being as hard and restrictive as pre-nerf Act 6 or at the very least close cause it's become way too easy now. Anyone who's already 100% Act 8 most likely has a massive roster at this point, and those that haven't wouldn't have any business doing Act 9 until they 100% Act 8.

I think they should drop all 7* r3 to r2 and not have r3 yet.

Opinions and buttholes.

My answer (no) is based on the insanely wide gap between f2p and paying customers. At this point, paying Valiants are so much ahead, that to make a playable, hard enough content for them, would mean to design a nightmare for vast majority of competetive f2p or even small-scale spending players.

smdam38

I see that gosh darned “f2p” or “free to play” garbage, it’s automatic downvote/disagree.

smdam38

You’re not special.

BigBlueOx

Story content is almost easier than EQ now, definitely time to revisit the structure and design. Especially with less paths now, I think
12 fight lines would be a welcome change.

Emilia90

I’m good with act content being easy cause they do give us endgame content still

I honestly think that Kabam used to artificially inflate the difficulty of content a lot instead of it being genuine skill based stuff. Abyss, some parts of act 6 (pre-nerf), and even some EOP objectives were just revive sinks even if you played well at the time of release. I’m glad that we have content like Necro now instead

I did like some parts of pre-nerf act 6 with more limitations so that could definitely be implemented, but I firmly believe that most of Kabam’s older content was just artificially inflated to be difficult

smdam38

You think EQ is harder than story content?
Weird take, but try to explain yourself.

Or it’s the “almost” modicum getting you off the hook?

I do think there needs to be a valiant EQ.
Not sure why it’s taking so long for you guys.

Probably trying to decide on rewards.
Do we give them their 25th r3, or just r2 stuff.

Who can scream more? The haves, or the have nots?

BeastDad

There is more than enough annoying content.

Thats a great idea, idk if they churn out a quest like every 3 months but I like where your head is at.

Iamnike

....are you Valiant?

Yes I've done all the content.

If you’ve run out of challenge, you can challenge yourself to becoming 1st in BG next season, and the season after that too.

spiderknight616

What we need is valiant EQ. Even paragon gauntlet isn't challenging enough for anyone past early paragon
