Please Tune Dungeons

On that note, I feel dungeon rewards should be partially weighted for how long it takes. Right now, the most effective way to get gear is just quit from normally geared groups and re-DF in hopes of overgeared group, which can clear twice as fast but is extremely boring. I would love to experience and enjoy the content as intended, but not be so severely punished for it. Even if I swear off the mindset of trying to maximized gear/min; I still have two depressing options: 1) go through content geared normally which is almost impossibly hard or 2) Re-DF for overgeared group in which contest is trivial and boring.

Increase Ilvl requirements on Titan HM, as there is no way a group can get through with i57 gear. It makes pugging impossible, and the majority of players are now getting through with by being carried by ilv 90 FC members. Premades can already DF w/o Ilvl requirements, so increasing will really help us puggers out. Not all of us wanna be in a giant FC.

Pugging titan is not impossible, in fact the only way ive ever beaten him is through DF random groups. Every server pug ive been in has failed. DPS is fine most of the time, but once Phase 5 hits, most groups melt to the mechanics (usually plumes, bombs and the different timing of landslide). It's not a gear issue.

Did you ever wonder if your current malaise with the game is a problem with you and how you're playing it? Undergeared groups can be a lot of fun if you speak with them and explain things. Some of my most rewarding experiences in MMOs have been getting things done under less than optimal conditions.

I think you have to face the facts, you're playing Loot Badge Farmer 2013, not an MMO. Any problem you're having is directly connected with how you're viewing the game. Since you're playing it in a purely utilitarian way you don't have fun. At least this is what your post makes it sound like.

As far as raising the ilvl requirement on the new dungeons and lowering the stat cap, I dunno. I could see lowering the stat cap, but I feel those dungeons are really doable as is. I just think you have a lot of people who are facerolling them while overgeared and then not adjusting strats when they have a party who can't faceroll it.
