Suggestion about new Eq difficulty
My suggestion for the new prestige ranked EQ.
Make it the "suggested" starting point.
Allow players to choose a different level of the mode if desired.
If players choose the suggested starting level or a higher level they can skip the lower pre-qualification level and achieve rewards upon completing chosen level.
If they choose a lower level they can do pre-qualification level at reduced energy cost.
Others have covered quest style, fight and defender health issues. I agree that they are not fun and should be adjusted.
