Aurum Vale needs to have NO SYNC!

[PSxpert2011]

AV isn't that hard! Why would it need a "nerf"?? I did it as monk last week with a meh-group who were local(they knew what they were doing). The reason probably was because we joke a lot during the run. All the monsters were easy... we died a lot though. Still fun to do!

whare are you talking about, av is a joke. first boss melts like shit, second boss can be solo'd, and dont even need a tank for last boss.

I've never had much of a issue in AV minus a few groups who flat out didn't have the dps to kill things fast enough or the healer going oom from over healing. It was a bit of a challenge once when we had I think a monk and a summoner on the final boss but thats because mostly I count on aoe to make sure those little seed pods die before they hatch. But even with the lack of aoe we still cleared the run with time to spare. *shrugs*

I think Once or twice I have failed AV .. and it was really due to people not playing their classes correctly (by that level you should at least have some idea as to what you are doing... even if you purely FATE ground to 50). Like the mage who didn't know how to aoe on the final boss... I don't have a high level black mage and I had to explain to them how to play their class on aoe'ing skills. :<

Aurum Vale is the one dungeon that SE got right in 2.0

Qarn, Darkhold, Cutter's Cry, AV, Stone Vigil. Love them all.

Qarn is just awesome.

i agree

and the better question is... why AV are more harder than WP/AK?

no, AV is not hard. If ppl run AV the same amount as they run AK/AV weekly, it is ll be easy

AV is not hard...it is annoying. Love the second boss though. Sunken temple is how all the end game instances should have been. Places like AV and Stone vigil are just loaded with trash pulls that are not in any way fun.

I don't know if they had different teams designing the end game dungeons, but that last dungeons that were actually interesting/ fun to run through were haukke and brayflox for me. Stone vigil just came off as an ice crown rip off to me complete with dragon battle with cannons. Ran through darkhold once for access and never went back. AV has some interesting bosses but the end boss can be almost impossible if you don't have someone able to aoe the seeds.

because you cant overgear AV. go in AK with everybody in ilvl50 it will be "as hard" as AV

I agree with this.

Nobody reruns AV. Now you have to run AV to unlock AK. So with Ak and WP open, why would you bother going back to AV.

Once people get the hang of the dungeon they pass it and go onto better things. The only people left are people who don'y know what they're doing. Thats why its so hard.

Which is good. Those people should struggle, and become better before accessing next content. This is called progression.

I wish AK and WP were synched and rewarded a *lot* more than currently.
