Does this sound like the OP is asking for advice or complaining? Also, look at the topic. Most of the time when people ask for help they say something along the lines of "Any advice against EF in Chapter 1? I'm really bad at inverted controls so if there's an alternative, I would really appreciate it." To me, it seemed that OP is "entitled" and/or "naive".
That's how humans work. If you're nice and ask for help, people are more than willing to lend a helping hand. If you sound entitled like how the OP did with the topic and opening post, he's more than likely going to get trolled. I, for one, will definitely enjoy trolling him.
[Edit. Just saw this post about the exact same challenge against EF in Chapter 1. Look at how the replies differ and you'll get my point.

Since you say it IS the content, could you give an example of a "decent challenge"? Honestly, Chapter 1 EF wasn't even close to being a challenge.
I'm telling you I agree with you that there's a line between exciting challenge and overboard frustration. And I'm telling you, if you feel that there is overboard frustration when attempting content, then that content is most likely not suitable for you, be it roster wise or skill wise. It is with no apologies that the community doesn't mince their words when telling someone that they are lacking either. If you want someone who will be politically correct and tell you "you can be anything you want to be" and "get anything you want", you're at the wrong place and asking the wrong people.
To be frank, it doesn't help anything but THAT IS THE TRUTH, and yes it hurts. But what else would you like the community to say? Does "Oh it's ok you can't clear Emma Frost in Chapter 1. You just need to tell yourself you can do it and keep trying! Don't worry! We will give you a participation medal for trying. As long as you do your best!" sound good to you?
The matter of fact is, "GET GOOD". Put in the effort, practise fighting against her, do your duels, find out alternatives that can help get past her. If Masochism is giving you a problem, learn to fight without relying on parry. There are no two ways around it. If people do not want to put in the effort, then NOTHING is going to help.
No void of any star variant..no KM as it is a year now since his release same for Void....yet takes less time for others to get them....i am considering leaving...the game is good but everything is on a constant recycle mon in and mon out
Yeah. She's really pretty. That new profile pic of her that was released... Wow...
You just need to practice.
Yes. Get good. Rather, should I say "Your feedback is invalid, we didn't have a problem with it, you're the problem.". That's the message it's sending. It's dismissive and ignorant. It happens literally everytime someone says something has gone too far. Only you can't be right everytime.
People are willing to put the effort in. They've put the effort in thus far. You don't get to Uncollected by hitting Auto Fight. The reaction is as if people have just been given Rewards up until now and now have to earn them. That's a wash. What I would have the community do is respect other people and the feedback they give. I would actually have them do more and consider there may be truth to what others are saying, but that seems to be a reach in this situation, so I would settle for letting people speak their piece without being made to feel less than just because they got past it.
News Flash: We know what we're capable of more than you do.
No, I don't debate the concept of pushing forward. What is the issue for me is the rate it's happening within Difficulties that are preset. The whole point of having, say Uncollected as opposed to Master, is so that people know what they're getting into. It's Uncollected, it's supposed to be as challenging as Uncollected is supposed to be. Not continuously increasing.
But if the difficulty didn't increase with the new champs that are being released we would be using auto fight on it in a matter of months. I will agree that the last 2 eq scaled up master a bit too much from heroic but I think the difficulty in uncollected is scaling at the correct pace for the development of players profiles
If the difficulty was the new Champs for the most part and not knowing how to overcome them yet, that would be different. It gets overboard with the combination of Nodes and strength of the Rarities. With the new Champs coming out that have unique Abilities we're still adjusting to, adding too many challenges on top of it becomes more brick wall than challenge. Again, I'm not arguing against a challenge in general, I'm saying it becomes overkill. I wish there were more testing towards the experience of it for a range of growth points. However, we have everyone from newly-Uncollected to End-Game all aiming for the same Difficulty and it's becoming harder for many, while those that don't have much of a problem with anything don't see it as a problem. Am I making sense?
Like you say we have a large range of players going into uncollected eq. When people are finishing it in a few hours after its release and a large percentage finishing it in under a week of its release I'd say the ramp in difficulty isn't has drastic as you believe. Yes it can get frustrating when you hit the skill ability wall to clear content without using resources but that makes overcoming it that much sweeter. If you are spending a fortune (not saying you specifically but people in general) you may want to consider your content you are attempting or the choices in champs you are ranking. I'm looking forward to the release of more champs like sinister and the end of corvus glave brag posts. I've walked through a lot of uncollected content but I've also had to stop and reevaluate my team choices and in some cases dip into 2 and 3* champs to complete content. We as a community should be welcoming more difficult content that forces us to look at alternative ways to overcome it. The one exception I will say about the difficulty content was aegon who punished players if he wasn't killed in the first or second attempt
I absolutely have to agree with this .. LOL
I'm not uncollected yet, so certainly can't "complain" about UC ... but seriously ... there's absolutely 0 justification to complain about UC, IMHO ... some (emphasis: "some") of the complaints about master are a good source for discussion ... (not saying they're totally justified or not) .. but certainly worth discussing ... but complaining about UC? uh .. no ... sorry ... that makes no sense ... LOL
Act 6 and Uncontested will likely bring a new difficulty for that.
Uncollected tends to be a free for all rollercoaster... but it's mainly due to the complete lack of testing performance (Darkhawk), node interactions and the effects of 10k base attack on things like awakened abilities (ice Phoenix, iceman and dorm in the trials, etc.)
Champs are often the same star/rank/level in each quest from month to month and I'm sure they have some pool of nodes with a scoring system and they are all within certain parameters, but actually playing it a few times with various roster limitations would be a huge boon to the community.
That said, this month seems pretty average in difficulty overall.
If you can’t deal with the uncollected nodes, then don’t do it. Simple as that.
No, I don't have R5 5*, only 4 r4s, still haven't explored A5, haven't touched Variant, not even tried Lab, so by no means am I an endgame player.
I did exploration now with the top squad you see here (Minus Ægon) and it was more challenging than most Chapter 1 bosses I've seen, but still nothing crazy. Used one L2 revive on the first run.
Most people are struggling with the SP1 evade and fury damage. So, just practice evading her SP and baiting heavies. She'll only attack you and throw her specials while she's in fury mode, so pay attention to that. When she's in defensive mode she won't do anything but curl up into a ball and cry, so you can heavy her there. I would keep her under two bars of power though.
Someone already gave really good advice (variant Emma with power gain and power reserve) which is the perfect opportunity to practice evading her sp1. It will only costs you 3 energy.
I'm all for practicing. Truth is I would love to be able to practice and better myself each month. I proposed something a while back which I dont think kabam cares for so I'll try it again.
Maybe each month, do a special arena where u get to fight the bosses only. You choose which one and level of difficulty (normal, heroic, master, epic) with all the same buffs / debuffs as u would encounter in the EQ.
Curious as to ppl's opinion on this.
