Anyone else thinks Proto Ultima is fine?

[SuperZay]

As it's another 'weekly' thing now I just want to end it fast and leave the instance as soon as possble. And if there's a 1 minute fight instead of 8 dull minutes long, that's great because it saves a lot of time in the long run.
No challenge? If I'll want a challenge I'll do Savage, ty.

Is this a joke?

[DroFrehter]

I'm actually ok with it. The problem is, the way it was pitched made it seem like it would be it's own instance rather than being shoved into the middle of another. 3.55a feels like they're showering us with loot.. easily obtainable loot. The Anima quest was legitimately the victory lap that was promised and getting access to alternative i270 accessories is fine with me because I don't do savage.

I'm Ok with it, and I'm really hoping he appears in all of the 24 man dungeons (not just dun scaith), it would be a cool way to get people back into old content to have proto ultima turn up in LotA or ST.

What I'm not ok with is people decrying this patch as terrible as this is only half of 3.55 and we are getting the rest next week, we got a lot all things considered.

[Bixillarla]

I am fine with it.

[SeriousxSarcasm]

I was never particularly hyped for it to begin with, so I'm fine with it. It's a short fight, but it was new and I enjoyed it the first run. Plus I finally got some gear from running Dun Scaith because of it. ;u;

[Altena]

Honestly I don't get what the big deal is.. A proto- of something is short for Prototype, no? Or Primitive/First version of something..

It's no surprise that it's basically an easy version of Ultima.. (Even though it's lvl 60 and Ultima is a lvl 50 fight)..

The fact that it's just a tack on mini boss in a duty that most people are doing weekly is fine by me, it's just a free 270 accessory every week. If you want the trial version of Ultima then just do the old one unsynced or go do the FATE when it pops.

[Risvertasashi]

Ehm, I like that we can get accessories from the weekly now. But fight wise, it's just... really lazy. The succubus was better.

[seekified]

I'm fine with it. The argument for cutting down the time on runs is fairly irrelevant though, because my Dun Scaith last night still took an hour and was a complete mess towards the end, as always.

There's speculation that Proto-Ultima will appear in a new 24-man each week and replace a miniboss each time. We'll see what happens next week.

It's Ultima....why is it a weakling "elite mob"?
It gives tokens for ilv 270 accessories, why is it so gimp? A9S gives 270 accessories...Savage is also weekly (but low chance to get what you're looking for) you're guaranteed a 270 accessory from gimp Ultima; even the tougher main bosses give LOWER LEVEL gear.
They need to at least double its HP. as far as mechanics go, it was ok.
