Strike Missions is a seperate thing were you together with 9 other players get to fight the last story boss, only this time its harder - its supposed to be a bridge to raiding. Thank you a million times for clarifying this. I was having a mini seizure thinking it would now be group content which would suck when the map dies as they all do.

Zeefa.3915 Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 As long as I can still solo at least my first playthrough of the story, I guess I don't mind. This wont make me like raids though and part of what I don't want is to be organised with 9 other people, so probably wont do this either. Calling it genious, might be a stretch if you ask me.

WhatLiesBeneath.9018 Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 There will be two different ways to join a strike mission, either with random players or organized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Perhaps 'and' instead of 'but' would have made the statement more clear. Sorry for misunderstanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus don't use "we" as if you are speaking for an entire section of the player base. This PVE'er very much wanted this content. Changes to LW are very welcome at this point.

Magnus Godrik.5841 Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 I hope this is true and they go back and revamp all previous ls. Rewards have to be decent tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saying "people were asking for this" is not the same as saying "we did not ask for this" in which using 'we' to mean an entire category of players.

Sounds like a lot more fun than actual raids. :+1: I will save my final judgment for later, though, after we have gotten to test this concept. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maddoctor.2738 Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Reminder: Migraine exists. This is nothing new, it didn't work with Migraine and it's unlikely to work with this if the rewards aren't worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it were repetable I think more people would do it to get easy ascended amulets for alts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. And of course, covering everywhere with unavoidable damage is a must too. Along with bouncing us around like ragdolls . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is nothing new, it didn't work with Migraine and it's unlikely to work with this if the rewards aren't worth it. Migraine wasnt intented to be repeatable and it left a bad taste in ppl's mouths for doff reasons, most notably, its bugs. Plus we are compairing what was non scaleable 5 man content to what (i hope will be) non scalable 10 man (tho it says up to 10 so i assume it scales).
