TeeracK.3601 Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Right now cause the timer happening in the middle of the escort the timer is really hard to beat simply for not having anyone with a speed buff for the npcs. Change it so all enemies spawn after the pre events and then the npcs just run and talk without it effecting anything like they do in literally every other drm. Also remove the elites that offer no interesting mechanics in the fight besides having lots of hp and make it kill the three portals and then go back to the boss. That is how it works on all the other bosses like the one in brisband and gendaran you kill the volcanos and it phases. The boss fight is pretty fun but its not a fun drm because it fails for really dumb reasons right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DRMs have a nice focus on the actual combat of the game instead of weird gimmicks like you see in dungeons. This is the only DRM that feel hard for the wrong reasons.

You have more than 50% of the timer left on the other ones but in this one its always 2min max without any wipes. usually below 1min. and then the boss is getting protection for no particular reason aswell. just to mess with power builds.

WITH swiftness its 7min for the endboss. which has 3 phases and bombards you with chill. you kinda need op solo builds to finish it in time in the first place and this is the only drm where this applies. This was about solo. the escort takes too much time. you cant pull adds together because they have stab so even killing the spread out chill spamming mobs becomes a nightmare. it is possible but on another level than all the other drms for the wrong (escort) reasons.

Ayrilana.1396 Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 If you’re getting to the boss with only two minutes left on the timer then it’s less about the movement speed of the NPCs and more to do with very low DPS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read a post about someone having two min left on the timer after reading their other post about having 7 min on the timer with swiftness. Looks like they were referring to two different points of time in the DRM. They’re technically wrong about this CM being the only one where people usually have two min or less on the timer after beating the boss. You see this with Fields of Ruin and Thunderhead Peaks as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol. Again i dont really get why everyone is so insecure when gw2 is a bread dead easy game. No, drms are designed around the games actual combat it should be hard to do became of a gimmick wasting time. If you wanted to do gimmick content then dungeons exist and no one does them because of their confirmed bad design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krzysztof.5973 Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 On the one hand it's good that DRM CMs vary in difficulty but they should also be adequate to the rewards they are tied to, in which case it has to be changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lare.5129 Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 today again take my best dps, for solo, choose only 1 cm mode for time, on start make all prerequest (quagans, fire, mobs) start and not finish in time. Timer was fade on 20%. Diuring fight ofc not die, not teleported or stuned. But anyway, this is not very very bad issue. Ok, hust knwo it and don't choose time CM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's true, too, of course. The weapon drop rate is lousy, so that's not an incentive to do them. And the fact that you must have finished 1 fire and 1 ice mission to receive the respective buff (which only lasts 1 hour!) in order to be able to farm another mission of the kind for crystals (which you need to craft the other sets) is indeed a bad design. At least make the buff last 12 hours so that you won't have to do unrewarding missions only to receive the buffs for the remaining missions.
