Are the Dungeon levels artificially high at the moment to stop us completing them?

We tried going in Aurum Vale and Wanderer's Palace today, Aurum vale got to the first boss and no matter what we did just couldnt beat it.. In Wanderer's Palace got to Flan boss...Have people completed these yet? Is the dungeon level higher than we are capable of clearing at the min as a well balanced fairly experienced party?

Wow there are actually hard dungeons? What level are these dungeons and how many people can you take with you? And how many people did you go in there with? Now i'm starting to get excited if there will be actual challenges.

Aurum vale is level 47 and Wanderer's Palace is 50, both limited to 4 people.

Sounds like the results of having all low-mid level content easy as pie and then turning on the difficulty at end game which causes noone to be prepared for it. I knew this was going to happen.

Wait.....wait...the game is hard? HOLY SHIT THE FORUMS LIED TO ME!!!

Seriously though that's the idea. The game gets harder the higher level you go. Try different pull methods, CC more, or pay better attention to boss mechanics. It may even be a gear check. I'm glad there are harder instances. Imagine what raid content will be like. They even said they made Crystal Tower too hard. I can only imagine what it was like in there.

Don't expect to breeze through all dungeons with ease, take everything that you learned prior to reaching this to complete it.

Stuff does get tough later, please don't complain when you can't complete it right away. Put effort in and beat it. This is the kind of thread that just needs to be deleted. I am disappointed in you OP for complaining already.

Who said anything about complaining?We are loving these runs. We didnt just walk in the dungeons, die once and walk out you know.. Did you read what i said, i said we are a fairly well balanced, experienced party. We've tried multiple times on the 45+ dungeons. Level 37 eh? have you seen the inside of these dungeons yet? Just wondering if any parties have managed to get through.

Oh for the love of.... People complain for a challenge then whine when there is one? I just don't get the forums....

Your title, and maybe a part of the body text, gives the impression that it is a complaint that's why. Same text or wording selection that a lot of people see come from whiners lol.

Again read what i said.

The OP did not complain once

Forum complains about other people complaining based on their own assumption that everyone is complaining, so typical... The OP said his party is well balanced and well experienced, I am pretty sure he tried 10-15+ times with different strategies and is having no luck and therefore is asking at the forums.

My guess? All 35+ content is unbalanced as it has had zero public testing XD

Sorry, I saw the Thread Title and all I could think was the level 15 quest fiasco all over again. I haven't done instances that high yet. Are you all geared up with new gear and not the old 1.0 gear? Could there be a mechanic you might be missing (the bomb/slime fight in one of the other dungeons) you might just need better gear is the one thing that comes to my mind. Get it all melded up and such, but I'm pretty sure you have already thought of all of this. I doubt they would make something intentionally impossible to beat. I'm sure there is a way. Just think of the thrill of accomplishment you will get when you finally figure it out. That seems to be what people are saying is missing from this game. (other's words, not mine.)

Just keep running it like BeyondTheLimitation when they fought Pandemonium Warden in FFXI XD. Run it till you passed out or start getting sick.

I learn absoluty nothing because i breeze everything.... so far the game is insulting in term of difficulty....

We know that was going to happen nobody will be gear prepare for high lvl stuff so we will have to upgrade crafting during freaking all day long to be able to do better gear to go end game... BAD GAME DESIGN !!

Right here, you take little to no effort to learn about your target and simply zerg through the dungeon and then do the same thing at a higher level and expect the same results. It's your fault, not the games.. the early levels teach you the basics of what to expect, yet you choose to ignore these. Then there are other people who are careless simply because "It's easy, we wont die anyway" where a CNJ would run far ahead of the tank or a THM not watching his hate meter, DDs not paying attention to ads or tanks not rounding up the monsters properly.

If you power leveled to 50 you likely have really crappy gear. This could be a reason why you cannot complete these dungeons. I've seen 50's on Leviathan that I have better gear then at 40.
