Baldesion Arsenal Feedback

[Awful]

There seems to be one group that organizes clears/farms in this way. There are plenty others that do not require screenshot proof/video proof/stream proof/whatever. I got my Ozma clear from the latter type of group, organized in that same Discord. However, given that 2/5 of my tries for Ozma prog/clear before I actually cleared it involved players that have not even been to AV trying to join Ozma progression, a part of me can understand wanting to see proof of progression...

What I've been seeing from my friends and such it's been in a format like (1. Link screenshot of achievements/kill, 2. Describe the fight in its entirety, 3. Must have at least 2-3 clears) I find that a little crazy because it's asking a lot from a single person, which I know it takes 1 person to wipe. My friends haven't been able to get into a Discord so they're trying to look for a prog one which is silly because I feel that we should be able to have premade party queing or in instance grouping there's so many issues trying to get clears/kills.

I wasn’t asked for any of this by the person organizing my Ozma clear run. The only requirement they really stated was to please be on Ozma, near enrage, and to have a good grasp on the mechanics. They didn’t demand screenshots or mechanic descriptions. Again, I’ve only seen 1 group advertising that theirs is formatted this way. I don’t think it would be particularly difficult to get in a group that doesn’t have those sorts of requirements.

Just to be clear, I am talking about the Aether discord. Not any of the other data center discords.

For sure I'm just saying what I've seen is all I know Aether is different than Primal and vice versa I don't know what it's like on Aether, I just wish we had a better system is all rather than what we got in BA it just seems so...backwards? I don't know it's so strange we can't invite while inside Eureka is all any other MMO you'd be able to go "LFG/LFM X Encounter need Y classes PST!". I think some of the Discords that I've seen on Primal like what I listed is a little much, I think 2-3 clears anyways, I'd take anyone close to enrage and all that personally but everyone has their own standards.

I hope your Eureka adventures continue to be fun though! I'm gonna try and figure out better ways to tackle this but there's only so much I can do ;.; I've tried reaching out and stuff so I'll find one eventually.

And meanwhile i'm over here bashing my head against the wall, unable to even enter the place.

When you have to rely on a third party website to even be able to get into the content you know there is a problem.

Two weeks of trying, only gotten enough people to try two times in that timespan, and both attempts ended either at or before the first boss due to one random idiot trying to speedrun it like a normal dungeon.

And since i don't use Discord myself, welp, that's that.

In other words, i'm locked out of the content.

I'm about ready to throw my arms in the air and give up.

I'm not even fighting the mobs, i'm fighting the rest of the playerbase and losing badly due to unwillingness to resort to underhanded measures or out of game voice chats.

I quite honestly don't believe BA was intended to be beaten as quickly as it was, SE just didn't take into account people might organize on Discord.

BA seems like it was intended to be something long and dragged out till 5.0

If you don't mind me asking, why don't you use Discord?

My friends haven't been able to get into a Discord

Most people shout the Aether BA discord link in every instance whenever someone asks. If they don't have it, I can message it to you. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to just post it here or not.

Great. That is exactly World of Warcraft style tactics regarding entrance requirements. . . (heavy /s)

Seriously thought the worst aspect of Eureka Hydatos and the Baldesion Arsenal is the simple fact of getting in.

Having to spend 3 hours of organization to try to get in is stupid.

Change the player count to 24 and balance accordingly.

None of what you've mentioned has happened to me on Primal though.
