Delve already dying?

[Karah]

I'm not saying that it will die down completely, but as far as I can tell delve is just a stepping stone for the rest of SoA content... The paint-drinkers aren't capable of putting together efficient delve parties, and they're already becoming rarer than they were at first... Hours of silence in town with the occasional person asking someone to make an alliance...

It's difficult to find someone with the KI to open the fracture... Wildskeeper Reives are extremely rare and Reives in general are pretty much dead... with no reives being done the colonization rates are always low, meaning the wildskeeper reives are nearly impossible (the NMs take damage proportional to the colonization rate...) People who are perfectly capable of putting together these alliance will be busy with other, newer, content unless it's nicely tied into these same areas--and if that's the case it's going to be boring... I'm already so sick of Ceizak Battlegrounds, I'm sure others are as well...

It has gotten almost eerily quite on our server (carby) only the same 3 people shout, the rest all formed new shells (*disgusted*).

Had to bold the SICK OF CEIZAK comment, holy hell so sick of it... Why they are STILL farming -JUST- NQ mobs and holding NMs is beyond me, I know we're a VERY very slow to catch on server but damn.

Only NM Phoenix kills in a run is the Mata because its stupidly easy. Most NMs inside seem like to much trouble to bother with for such minimal gain, I mean 1 NM is the same as 10 normal mobs, that sounds good at the start, few mobs are around, killing the NM at that point is a boost. But once you start killing other things like the Raptor, or the Eft, you are going to start cutting into time when the wall is down, and even if its worth 20 mobs in Plasm with all those Airlixirs on top, can you kill it fast enough to be worth it? In my opinion it will be a long time before groups are casually killing multiple NMs in Delve, Mata is already being done heavily it seems to me, but that one is so easy that its mindless, of course people do it, but what about others? That's where the real problem is, because their gimmicks do not mean you just attack for 5 minutes then bust out instant death on the NM.

They will probably add a daily cap or a delay on entry to delve soon.

Hope not, because this is the best event they have had in a while, does not screw you like VW with terrible drops, no entrance delays, a nice point system, augments to keep those who want the best coming back to do it some more, hard NMs you have to kill at least once for the item you want. In my opinion the only flaws Delve has is the Alliance requirement basically and the fact NMs are spread in the farming area, which I think was a bad idea, besides that, best event we could ask for right now I think.

I did a few all 5 NMs kill pickups with some NQ mob kills inbetween. Thats more than 12k plasm total just from NM kills, 5 r/e items and tons of potions. Most JP pickups do that actually (thats for morrimar btw).

But you know how american play this game. Some one goes to ceizak and suddenly ceizak is the only option. If my usual 6 man group can kill matamata/raptor/eft in 40 minute, most alliances should be able to kill 5 NMs np. But yeah. Delve juste like every single adoulin content gets old after 1 week. The game sucks right now.

why do pre adoulin content?

why do Bayld now?

why imprematur, seriously?

Who seriously spends time on skirmish?

who seriously will spend 1~2h on a nakual?

Plasm farming trash mobs gets old after the 3rd run.

I like the point system but the content itself is really boring. I at least found voidwatch entertaining. Calling out procs, swapping weapons, using temps, it was/is actually pretty fun.

I don't find killing trash mobs for 45 minutes after taking an hour for an alliance to be put together "fun" - At least not on BRD.

The most disgusting but, correct truth ever posted. One small addition though, the laziness factor. Ceizak is closest therefor, logically it's the bestest and ONLY option.

Can't believe I'm in solid agreement, but yup, this. Fracture was old after one run though, especially if you saw the first run that I was "fortunate" enough to take part in.
