Expectations for Occult Crescent?

[Infindox]

Did they ever explain what the area inside Occult Crescent is going to be like? Is it like CLL/Dal that I can queue into whenever it's available, even solo, and play with everyone else and work together to beat it? Or it is going to be another BA, that people will cuss you out for going in and be forced into Discord servers to get a proper run?

[Kaurhz]

Don't really have any to be honest.

I'll try it, probably get a relic or couple and then just exit out.

I'm just at a point where I don't really care beyond just trying it for the sake of experience, really.

They said the raid would be modeled after BA.

My expectations are minimal, and I'm sure SE will still find a way to disappoint.

Mostly I expect them to release barely any content and pad it out until the very end of the expansion. Only at that point will it be a potentially enjoyable game mode.

All of my hopes, in shambles.

The described it during the last live letter:

As they explore the isle, players can acquire "ciphers." When 16 or more players use these ciphers at the designated location, an aetherial node will activate, teleporting them into the tower's halls after a brief period.

Should more than 48 players be standing upon the aetherial node, players will be randomly selected for teleportation. Those who used cipher will have a higher chance of being selected.

Taken directly from the presentation slide. Sounds just like BA except with one big portal instead of many single-person ones.

it also can be started whenever instead of only for a brief period after a specific notorious monster.

Yeah field ops is my favorite content. I also liked the stories, especially bozja. I'll do the content regardless but but I am hoping the story is better than dt msq.

[Reimmi]

Expecting the same thing as eureka and bozja
farm fates and mobs for stuff 1 or 2 gimmicks and some neat bosses
hopefully they dont do duels again those are terrible, why couldn't those have just been something you queue for without a wait, like wow's mage tower?

[Thurmnmurmn]

I also hope they don't do duels in the same form. But for me it was more the fact that you had a huge audience. Stressed me out so bad.
