Woof.8246 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 (edited) 5 minutes ago, Cyninja.2954 said: No it won't. It never did in the last 9 years and that was and has been visible for a long time. Players don't learn kitten in open world, they never have. Soo-Won was one of the ONLY reasons that even some players decided to improve their game, and even here I'd personally argue that the majority of improvement was done with the balance changes. If you have a sensible open world build you never have to change gear ever and will outperform those 7-8k dps by a large margin. Even without a sensible build, as long as other players cover for your failures with boons, you'll be fine. As i said with Cynz , the goal the company when calculating the HP of the boss , should be what the general population's gear is . Each different people is experimenting with own way/gear , rather than be forced to equip Berseker and have a cohered spec The goal is not force people to change gear , but taught the basic mechanics . People will learn boon/party composition to speed up the proccess (kill faster) , which i believe they successfully learned , if what you said it true , that Tentaquil/HoT boss get melted .

A Hamster.2580 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 (edited) Regarding the Soo Won discussion, it was clearly stated by Anet that this meta event was supposed to be the most difficult because it is the finale to everything before. Soo Won was not meant to be as easy as any other meta event before it. So get good or avoid it until you become a better player. If you are still consistently failing it today to the point of holding a grudge against raiders, that is completely on you.

Vilin.8056 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Another day, another thread of a certain player who's way behind skill gap for the majority of contents, coming here complaining why the game isn't centered on his own interest. This is supposed to be a forum where players share information and guidance on contents, but instead, we wasting time on entitlement. 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agreed with him and said that the OW content should not force people to change gear . Each person have chosen his own experimentation and they should continue releasing non-Soo-won bosses , but rather with the old/traditional ways as i agree with Ashen. Legendary gear and experimentation should stay on Instance/pvp areas I think a lot is lost in translation here. Remember, soo won had some bugs and needed balance when it was first released. It was not meant to be so difficult to beat her. It was meant to be challenging, but still open world. With no need for legendary gear or li requirements like it was a while. (Quite a mess honestly) It’s to be expected that there are some issues with bugs and balance when new content is released. The meta event is fine now and I have not encountered any fail in a long time. Even casual squads can do this event now like any other meta event. Triple trouble has more chance of failing at this point. You do not need anything more then exotic gear in this meta. So saying “no content like soo won” when it was unbalanced and bugged is irrelevant 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So saying “no content like soo won” when it was unbalanced and bugged is irrelevant True there is not a need for OW legendary set , but we prevents the scenario as Cyninja.2954 , said that content needs 7-8k dps to be completed , or as Cynz said that it needs a cohered spec . Each people is doing their own experimentation atm , and should not try to limit them(force them into Berseker gear) in order to meet those criteria . So from now (Soo-Won stays the same) , in order not to prevent hurting OW people with their experimentation (force them into needing a blant 7-8k dps or cohered spec) , should not be repeated and Arenanet should adopt the policy that people will do the same dps as Tentaquil/HoT End boss , and what the population should learn is the basic stuff . In instance content is a different thing , because they will have the tools needed to change stat-traits on the fly or when asked by other teammates Edited October 9, 2022 by Woof.8246 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadowmoon.7986 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 To be honest, anet only caters to one group, the whales. This type of bickering remind me of trailer park where a mom and her daughter is yelling about who their live in boyfriend loves more. The scum does not care about either of them, just how to exploit them to their limit, then throw them away. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forcing everyone to get Berseker Gear , limits OW creativity/experimentation . If you still run around in below exotic gear reaching soo won meta, you can't be helped. You would need to actively avoid gear upgrades, learning about the game, improving during the journey. If it's fun for some people that is fine. But no reason to balance around. Current soo won is fine and doable. Fails mostly do not occur due to low damage but players losing damage uptime due to death or failed mechanics/positioning. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forcing everyone to get Berseker Gear , limits OW creativity/experimentation . If in CS 20 players out of 20 spawn with pistols, that fps game should be balanced around players running with pistols 24/7. If players spawn in queensdale, they shouldn't be required to level up or to move out of the zone at any point of the game since they should be able to expereince entirity of the game by standing still. If players want every reward given to them by stimply standing in a city map, the game should be balanced around those players' wishes. No, it shouldn't and that's not how balancing the game works. If you don't want to move forward, you're free to stay where you are. Edited October 9, 2022 by Sobx.1758 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luks.4230 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 You need max 15min to buy berserk gear and look up an appropriate build to run that one meta. After that you can play whatever build you want. Insane dude... insane 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From now one we must respect their choises and not create content like Soo-won .

You don't need berserker gear, but you should have a coherent build. There should be a baseline for competence in people's ability to do certain content, yes even in OW. There are builds that are objectively bad such as trying to dps in clerics and no amount of creativity will make it work. The gap between decent and literally terrible is gigantic that trying to find the balance in between will appeal to no one. Better to just set a standard depending on the content and let it be. Also no, the standard should not take in factor of builds that make no sense. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
