I got banned for making this thread [Suggestion] The only way to make KA content viable for grinding

nope. They think it's working as intended.

 

Interesting. Well I am waiting for the next patch to fix things up and I know lots of others are in the same boat. Once we all realize that is not going to happen I am not sure what people will decide to do.

The 3 man group I play in has already slowed down on trying to grind out the needed ascension each night and I have got disinterested with the 1.1 Million I need for the second ascension class. Giving me 5 extra scrolls per week did not help in that regards at all, just made it worse in my opinion.

PM me if you like it and want a code thingy for some extra free gameplay.

 

lol, and people complained about P2W in EQ2.. hahah

 

Wants to run 6 people content with 3 people. Complains too long.
Wants to gain XP, but says ToT Missions are pointless as they give no rewards.
Wants to run Heroics without proper gear progression. Complains too long.

 

Errrorr is only telling the truth. Even though some things DBG does are bad, complaining about not being to complete 6-person content with three people in a reasonable amount of time (which can actually be done with good gear) is simply unrealistic and making it seem like things are much worse than they really are.

 

I've done my share of Pollyanna-ing and cheerleading, but I honestly saw the "heroics can't be done by three people" comment as a desire for some 3-4 person instances, not a complaint that the current heroics couldn't be done with <6 person groups. I would have loved to have seen challenge duos and/or something between the advanced solos and heroics, rather than the expert zones that seem shoehorned into the progression.

As others have pointed out, the expert zones seem like a way to stretch out the content until they can get the tier 4 stuff balanced or people are geared enough to do them (and it feels like the expert zones were added to help fill that gap in the gear being granted). It would have been (or to be more hopeful: would be) awesome to have something able to be done by sub-6 toon groups. More flexibility and options are (almost) always a good thing.

 

Heh blow me. I guess you missed the fact that we have been 3 manning current content all the way upto ToT with no issue.

 

The expert zones are nothing more as a gear reset, except (and I grudgingly admit they finally learned from a mistake) it was done in a way that doesn't piss off the majority of the players like the gear reset during ToT did.

 

They might get a golden duck mount that craps plat out of it, it's worth a shot.

 

I had an idea. Either adding a completion bonus to the missions in agnostics or add a bonus to the end name in agnostics like they did in kunark...

Or even better, put the bloody experience bonus back in, but turn it off for 100s. They already have code in place in the agnostics that if you are over 95, the only loot you get are skill books if you get any.

 

If thinking current heroics shouldn't be able to be trio'd by toons in handcrafted gear without it taking a long time is white-knighting, then armor me up.

 

Who said anything about hand crafted gear?

 

Edit - Forget it, not worth it.

 

If a three person group is geared well enough to generate the needed dps to handle heroics quickly, then they likely do not need anything from these zones anymore.

 

You specified you wanted to do heroic content with 3 characters in solo/adv solo gear with 10k potency. So basically hand crafted level.

 

Not what I said at all, but thanks for playing.

 

The fact that you've been 3-manning content that was always meant for 6 people only means they did a bad job of tuning content up to now. Fixed!
