The party consistes of players who run raids and fractal CMs regularly though but we don't try hard. Usually just play dps we feel like and just make sure boons are provided and cc is given.

Simply because the challenge of regular T4s is low and the performance gap even among successful players is very large. My guess is: the T4 fractal party you actually succeeded with had more adept players versus those were you ran out of time. > > > > > > > > I doubt dps was "good", or else you would have made the timer.

There are multiple youtube videos of players soloing this DRM on different classes with varying degrees of time left on the timer. Which is more than possible given the scaling this mission has. (edit: here a video of a solo Reaper with 2:30 minutes on the timer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCnCL-Nz6CA. Obviously scaled to 1 player, but no 25 might, no alacrity, no 100% quickness uptime, no fury. Imagine if you had a group which actually had all those boons.) > > > > How is it motivating when each and every CM is easy as cake? Some have to be harder as to encourage players to actually become better at the game. That's the meaning of challenge: to overcome something, not breeze through and get free loot. > > i dont want it "easy as cake"....but story related stuff after tons of tries kills of my personal motivation for it ...thats it i dont need to imagiine what boons are in a group, you dont know me can close this useless dicsussion

That at least should give you and overview of which issues need ironing out. 2-3 mins on the timer ? invite me and show me ! sure, those players are always on the lfg lol why is something hard like this needed in story content achievs ? it would fit better in the raid aka elitism section for the people with the spare time for that maybe i will just never do it .... very motivating
  4. i understand the point that a challenge should be a challenge. but i tried several times with a few Frac T4 Parties and i did it only once . i miss mostly for 30sec to 1 minute of time. thats it. no one was dying. alac and quickness was there, good dps was there. people dodged aoe very good. so i dont get it. im only speaking for me but im not enjoying something like that... and why are the other drm cm´s a piece of cake when it should be a challenge.
