Dev Blog: Hard mode dungeons and equipment drop

I'm sure the CT armor designs will be more impressive.

From the little bit we've seen they will be.. think the live letter shots showed off the BRD outfit that drops from there. ^^

Guys compare the looks of this armor to AK and WP. have you seen the christmas sweater of Doom?

Anyone else a little upset that the Hard Mode dungeons have an average Item Level requirement of 48? I would have hoped they would have put it up at 60, since that's at least on par with AK gear drops....or are these just laughable excuses for making level 50 easy mode dungeons of old content. I honestly doubt the challenge will be there for those that are in mostly DL gear by now.....hope they prove me wrong.

Agreed... I do not see how ilvl48 will be....hard

So it'll be on par with WP ? Just a guess.

Yeah I'd wager WP or AK sadly. Which people are already speedrunning adnauseum.

Yeah definitely hard to get all your 60+ jewelry without filling it out with DL or getting lucky with AK runs. Although I'd assume most already have their DL Jewelry in their main role if they've played consistently since release. I know I've got two fully DL geared jobs and working on the third and I took my sweet time getting my first job to 50.

People talking as if anything in this game were hard to begin with, what, gonna say twintania? K.

More variety is a always good thing, I swear people will find any excuse to bitch and moan. Stay classy forum.

Yeah like people bitching about people bitching right?

You are right, there really hasn't been anything overtly challenging in this game. Titan was just a latency check and a complete derp check. Coil 1-4 really is fairly face roll and T5 is funny.

Still not out of line to ask for an actual Hard Mode to be exactly that....Hard.
