Should the public instance for the Marionette fight be permanently available?

[Ayrilana.1396]

Currently the public instance version is only available for the first week.  After that time, players will have to join a squad through the LFG.

[Inculpatus cedo.9234]

Let's hope the Devs change their minds.

Marionette is more fun than Dragonstorm (though, that [Dragonstorm] is ok; it's just they are both at the same time and both new[ish]).

 

Edit:  Thanks, Devs for fixing the time/schedule conflict.

100% yes on keeping the public version next to the instanced private squads. Have 1 hour the Dragonfall meta and the other hour the marionette or make it x times a day like lets say Tripple Trouble or any other worldboss. This way all players have a chance to complete it and/or enjoy it on a daily basis and keep the more difficult 50 ppl private squad verion as it is at the same time.

 

I agree with Inculpatus cedo that Marionette is more fun than Dragonstorm.

Add it to the rotation and make it a World Boss

[zealex.9410]

Yes but the devs should then also buff the privwte squad rewards to incentivise doing it.

[Fueki.4753]

It should be permanently available and the Marionette should be put back into Lornar's Pass as a world boss.

[Raknar.4735]

Yes.

[Boogiepop Void.6473]

Just make it an actual worldbosss on the actual Lornar's Pass map. Many of the organizational and technical issues brought about by the current iteration will be solved if it's not instance based. Almost every single issue that has been brought up is a consequence of one thing: the 50 person squad limit, for an event that is just barely exactly doable with 50 people as currently implemented.

Isnt a more structured and possibly more fluid experience the draw to organise?

[grimnal.2796]

Yes. keep the public and 50 person private option just like the Dragonstorm instance.  The devs might listen to us if we get enough responses to this poll, but they will never add it back to the Lornar's pass map. (nor should they) This is why we have the scrying pool. 

[videoboy.4162]

Yes, I think they should Keep it.  Each time I've done the public version, we've won easily. 

I think they changed the time on it too. When I did it yesterday, it was at an odd hour (my time zone) and the same time as Dragonstorm. Today it was after Dragonstorm, at an even hour.

[Savoren.3910]

Good initiative with the poll, OP!

I think they should keep both public and private versions, just like Dragonstorm. They should just make it so it wouldn't be up at the same time with Dragonstorm, making them alternate with each other every hour would be the best way to go about it.

[Zephire.8049]

Absolutely, especially if they don't adjust the scaling of private squads. If there's no public option and squads on the LFG require 100+ LI from raiding, a lot of people are never going to see the fight. Public can be dubious and doesn't guarantee a win but it's a lot easier to get into and has a better chance of winning.

 

Plus you can plan around an event happening at XX:00. You can't plan around being a pug in a LFG group.

[Ardenwolfe.8590]

Definitely.

[Faridah.8431]

Absolutely! Squads seem to be pretty picky. That will guarantee a lot of people never see this fight.

[Ameepa.6793]

Public version has to be permanent if they want people to see it and even kill it after this week is over. Kinda waste of content if it gets removed and it will be forgotten again for the next 8 years.

[Incar.7358]

Abso-kitten-lutely. More content, not more walls please.

I think they did that now...alternating the two events.

Yea, Public Marionette is on odd hours. Now if we could just have it stay foreverrrr

[Trigarta.3841]

Yes

At the time of this post, 2 'No' votes from Scourges.

 

I was this many days old when I learned the 'P' in 'PvP' stood for 'Player'. 😏

[Dark Red Killian.3946]

As someone who took a break during season 1 I have not done this fight. I also happen to be on vacation this week and not playing, so I will have very little time if any to learn and I hope to not be excluded from this content if it goes to Squad only and people say no I’m not teaching you.

That sounds good, here is hoping that they'll make the public event permanent too now.

I think the no votes were just for memes. 

[Perisemiotics.4579]

guys, it can't be made a WB on the actual open world because it was defeated and destroyed in Season 1 - which is why it's only accessible now via the Scrying Pool.

Making the public fixture permanent just like Dragonstorm is alright - make one of them spawn every other hour, then in the future they could add other epics fights (like The Breachmaker) in the same fashion, slotting it in half-an-hour later, then one more maybe... and so on.
