MidCore Content

In keeping with the trend of posting when maint.

It would be cool if we could get a dungeon or a series of raid like dungeons, that was on the level of an extreme primal. Instead of a single fight it could last throughout the course of the dungoen, we could actually call it an "EXpert dungeon".

There really isn't enough content in this game between the Casual content and the Hardcore Content. The only Midcore content we get is really extreme primals, as they aren't faceroll the first couple of times you try them out.

If SE could take that same level of difficulty and put it towards dungeons or other types of content, and maybe link like tomb weapons or armor to them? to make it last for awhile. That would be cool, maybe make it 8man or something.




tl;dr Complaining about lack of midcore content and throwing out an idea.

I'm 100% for harder 4man dungeons being added to the game. Ex dailys are not very hard or fun.

Just have Savage Dungeons make it 5-10 ilvls under the current best gear that's upgraded via Tomes/Alex Savage this way people can have LS for 4 man dungeon parties. Make it like PotD where you have different modifiers for each dungeon for that day as a daily thing.

For example: you do Haukke Manor hard all the trash that you kill explodes after they die dealing X amount of damage pretty much killing anyone who eats 2+ mobs exploding, or make it so everyone in the dungeon is losing 1% hp every 10 seconds and there's no combat HP refill and mana is refreshed at 30% the rate. Or in another dungeon make the mobs have a debuff on the tank making them generate less threat making the tanks work for threat and making them mark targets in order for the DPS to focus them. Add a time limit as well so it adds the competitive aspect.

This would add SO much replay value to dungeons that people can join and make statics and groups for and adds a challenge they could even add leader boards for competition and breathes more life into the gear treadmill to alleviate the boring tome grind. It'd work for all the dungeons 15-60 and bump all the mobs to lvl 60 so we can all use our abilities and clear faster and learn what mobs to DPS faster, what abilities to use in what situation and healers knowing what heals work for the group.

I've given up giving ideas to SE / Yoshi swallowing his/their pride to actually take off the training wheels for players instead of feeding us baby food for easy money, but I'm cool with liking and voting for changes like this. /like

I want this game to have something similar to Mythic and Mythic+ dungeons in WoW. However, the community hates hard things, so I've accepted it won't happen. It's really sad the only midcore in this game are EX Primals and maybe the first boss of a raid tier. I'm not even going to count the new PotD because i'm pretty sure it'll just be a stat and rng beef and nothing more.

inb4, "THEN JUST PLAY WOW!"

I am. My relationship with this game is currently just doing all the personally relevant content for one week and bail until the next major patch.

I wouldn't mind harder dungeons... But I do think there's reason to have easy enough dungeons that everyone can do them.

I think a harder (and more rewarding version) of the dungeons would be a valid option, or at the very least one where you had boss mechanics that don't end up being kind of optional, if the devs are willing to do that. I don't know how long it takes to create a dungeon boss, but I don't know if creating 2 versions of a boss would increase the workload all that much.

If they ever do decide to make harder versions of dungeons, I do hope they don't go the route of some MMOs of just increasing enemies HP and Damage to try making them harder...

Isn't the highest potd levels considered mid core content?

Midas Savage is also Mid-core content with over-gearing and echo.

Unfortunately the rewards suck so much that there really isn't much incentive for people to go back and do it.

Yea there really isn't much in terms of rewards even for savage raids, you get gear that's marginally better than tombstone gear and like a minion or mount if you beat the final tier boss.

But I mainly suggested this for something sorta fun/challenging outside of ex primals and savage.

this is pointless until they fix itemization.

Buzzwords are the best!
