Pandaemonium raids are too stressful

I dont think they should make the content braindead just for a hand of people that will never do it again
just to make it as boring as possible for customers that enjoy the game for a longer time.
I regret unlocking alexander normal for example, you cant possible fail it in 10.5/12 of them

If you want to know what happens, pay attention to the fight and the map.
The pattern on the floor tiles often allready gives alot of information and when theres some random placed pillar in the arena its there for a reason.
The normal version of the raid is easy enough.

If you still cant clear it ask other players for help if they saw something of interest that will help clearing it.

Not exactly raiders. The games issue is that in order to get people to where the majority of players are at, they basically have to make everything easier at the lower levels so it gets completed faster. The reason things are easier in the .x5 patches is that the gear has improved and more shortcuts to getting geared get opened up.

The end result is that no one is used to what the game is supposed to play like. Technically, savage is also an issue because of the same issues. The way they handle crafting and gathering in this game and the recipes leave a lot to be desired as well. No idea why a consumable item requires aethersand. Almost 99% sure that anyone who does things casually in this game has no idea where to even get that outside of scrips and bots are farming those nodes. I've never really been a fan of timed nodes when people have real life to contend to, much like the firmament event.

Dude this is such a bad excuse with real life stuff, you only need 30 minutes / 1 hour of your time to gather all of them legendary nodes to crafts full 640 gear.

As for the difficulty, IMO it's not as easy as Abyssos but still pretty fun IMO. Golbez EX however is kinda hard to do with pugs...

Challenging is fine but being so hard that we wiped 3 times and people were dying 4 to 5 times total is just a bit much :/

I know it's easy for long-time players but please think of new players who are coming into the game for the first time and have never seen any of these mechanics and have to learn ten different things every fight.

I should know better because obvious troll bait but Ill bite, who in the hell are these new players who start raiding at the current expansion?

None of these mechanics were new. You have seen everything in these fights b4, even if you don't remember it. P11 is so close to a copy and paste of e11, it's actualy easier than e11. The only differences is instead of knockback u have a get in.

Thats the question i am asking. this is not a new people raid, this is a raid for people who have played through the entire game and hopefully all the previous 4 raid series and other side content.

Yes there is still new never before seen stuff in these fights but it also has a mix of old stuff and old stuff done in new ways and new ways to telegraph old mechanics. But anyone who has played all things up to this point should have all the tools needed to figure it out and plenty of leniency for failure on normal version of the fight.

At least this one was easy to spot.
