It’s coming. This is Day 1 of them trying to tune a Cavalier difficulty that I personally have zero doubt that Kabam is gonna make 100 percent Exploration unpleasant.
That doesn’t mean you won’t be able to do it. It doesn’t mean that some months won’t be easier for you. But I think they are gonna try to make Cavalier difficulty consistently unpleasant for people at your level.
But at the same time, people like you also have to understand that not every piece of that content is gonna hit that mark and that the rest of the masses have to see that content and believe that they can do it, too.
Kabam is trying to shrink the gap in the rosters, clean up some of the ridiculousness in Act 6, develop Book II and Cavalier difficulty, and fix AW while making AQ better.
They’re trying, man. I am critical sometimes too, but they’re trying.
Give them a minute to finesse Cavalier and see what that looks like, who can do it
It was fine and about what I would expect at this level AS THEY BEGIN TO TUNE IT.
It will get harder, and I kinda feel like the Sasquatch data is going to inform a lot of what we see in the future.
There is definitely some of act 6 I've not just been okay with but argued for being changed. You can't make content THAT roster specific without addressing champ acquisition. They're addressing both (one far too much in my opinion but that's just me).
I'm fine with legitimate constructive criticism about difficulty, we need more of it in fact. Coming to the forum and caps locking about greed or cash grabs is anything but constructive though and that's what typically happens unfortunately.
I want them to get the new EQ difficulty right which is why I stated how I felt about this week and also said I'm reserving all actual judgement until it finishes.
Just sayin’. Some of y’all just keep hating and I just keep clearing lanes with my boy Norrin
Anyone can discuss anything on here. Including anyone who is doing Canadian, which I am.
I haven't registered whether I think it's too hard, or not hard enough. We haven't even seen the whole thing yet.
What I can say is it's a Side Quest that's for everyone Level 55 and up. It's not just for "Cavalier".
Honestly, people are looking at this like a personal platform on what it should and shouldn't be, and there's more to it than battling opinions. They'll also be looking at the data.
The Side Quest is for anyone, not bound to Titles.
My point is, although my story progression stopped a year ago because frankly I couldn't be bothered to do more, and in my current position I BREEZED through this new difficulty so far including the buffed up tech paths, my opinion is worth less somehow because I haven't achieved an arbitrary milestone that people in the community are holding as a Bastion of superiority? I could crush Act 6 with the roster I currently have, I choose not to because I have no need to currently and nothing to prove. This wouldn't make any opinion that I have on the current difficulty any less valid than any other person who is able to do this side event, considering it isn't in fact locked behind a Cavalier title or any other title, simply a level standpoint. Until Cavalier EQ is out, and the people who "only got Cavalier" start complaining about difficulty, will the argument of "Well you haven't progressed further in Act 6" hold any real validity.
It also doesn't mean it doesn't matter at all though. I have just as much right as anyone to have an opinion on game direction. Just bc I don't agree with the masses doesn't make me wrong or right. It's just how I feel.
I do hope they find a balance to make each group happy honestly. I don't want people quitting. If all you have to offer is complaints and insults the yeah you're probably better off gone. When people come in with a reasonable point and an actual way to address it, that's constructive criticism.
That's all I want to see here honestly. Caps locking rants about greed and money grabs aren't constructive, it's lazy and usually wrong. I just don't want the game to be changed so much that the people that actually enjoy it get bored and quit honestly
For example, I am not Elder’s Bane. People might look at that and say, “Ooooh, ESF can’t play.”
Don’t kid yourselves. I can play. This game ain’t that hard, and I ain’t bad.
I have all of the final two acts done — aka the hard ones — and just have no time or desire to beat the Collector 26 times UNTIL I decide I want that generic 5-star Awakening Gem for a specific character.
For example, right now I have one Mutant AG. It’s waiting for Omega Red.
But if Magneto’s buff is awesome, my 5-star Mags is unawakened. So I would put the gem into Mags and then the second I got Omega Red, I would clear the rest of 5.2.
I am not saying that people should necessarily talk about content they haven’t cleared.
I am just saying that I know some people play this game on a tight schedule, don’t have the time or desire to tap out 2 million hit points on multiple characters, but that doesn’t mean they can’t
The whole point of this side quest was flat out stated as a testing ground to tune the new EQ. Unless you're someone who is making an attempt to move forward in the game absolutely no one should care what you think.
Does it need to be tuned to stretch the top 0.01% rosters to the limit? Of course not, that's ridiculous. What we got this week was a sleepwalk for anyone that's been moving along with the game as it's been released.
It was added to release another Side Quest Difficulty. Period. They're ALSO using it for data concerning Cavalier because they can be more fluid in those. You know those ambushes? Say hi to the data. You can continue to boost the bravado, but anyone doing it is contributing, and anyone can register feedback. Sorry 'bout it. But not.
That doesn't mean they automatically have a dog in the fight when it comes to the next level though. If you're not there yet whether by choice, ability, or roster you're still not there.
