5.3 Preliminary Patch Note

[Veis_Alveare]

This is mostly rambling that misses the point entirely. None of Coincounters cues indicate the attack will be a 360 degree one hit kill, so he could have 100 different colors, stances and cast bars going off before the attack and it wouldn't matter; you still wouldn't know what to do. If you don't know what to do you can't react, so you have no choice but to die.

Also, there is no "undergeared," dungeons have a minimum ilvl and if you meet it then you're appropriately geared. It's a 1 hit kill if you're not synched (overgeared).

Also, in most cases SE does make up for the limitations of MMORPG gameplay, but in Coincounters case they failed.

Oh look, more opinions presented as facts.

None of that is really opinion. The basic tenets of good and bad gameplay development practices are already established. I didn't invent them, but I do believe in them. SE has always struggled a bit with gameplay, so a few failures aren't overly surprising or damning. All I was really doing was commending SE for addressing Coincounter.

What's entertaining about this is the handful of people on this forum who will defend bad gameplay to the death.
