Point of new Hard Mode Dungeons?

[SinSilverwing]

not AK or WP... im tired of seeing Demon Wall...
Plus the difficulty is only there cause people are still getting the mechanics down. Once thats done the new dungeons will become the farms to go to... and by the time people grow sick of them it should hopefully be time for new dungeons to be added.
I also think the difficulty is fine given the amount of Myth and the gear it drops.

True this. We've only actually done it once, but we cleared in 24 mins our first time. I'm sure we could get that a lot lower.

Ditto on this. It's fast, fun, and has good music. >)
And I am so sick of Tonberries.

I don't know why they spent development time on this only to have it drop gear that is the same as the place we have been forced to run for the past couple of months.

I ran it, it was nice and pretty. I'm done.

They didn't even make it part of the main story! Why spend the time making a brand new instance that only has obsolete drops??

They should have made it at least drop unique stuff for furniture or recipes... they hand out DL like candy...I wasn't even going to bother running it once, but wanted to see what they had done.

The backwards design is overwhelming with this patch.

Haukke HM is the new WP. With a full FC group we can beat the dungeon in about 20 minutes and we get 50 myth tomes versus a 15 minute WP speedrun for 30.

Plus the music is awesome.

For those of us who aren't 50 yet

It isnt worth it to run these to gear up alt jobs as you can still get the same gear in AK and WP.

The gear drops in AK and WP are both i55 now.

People always look at content as a "This doesnt suit me at end game, what is the point of it?"
You do realize the game is still brand facking new and they will release content for all levels and ranges. Well not will but can! If they released 5 new level 15-45 dungeons tomorrow I wouldn't complain. I would be happy my next job has more variety in gear and thigns to do

There's a second set of ilvl 60 gear that drops in there with different stats so you can gear around your preferred secondary stat. Good example is the two tanking body pieces. Hoplite body has 24 accuracy and 17 skill speed, and the new Lord's Cuirass has 17 parry and 17 determination. Also, unless you had literally every drop you could get out of AK before this you'll still likely farm some gear for a different class later on.

Would have been nice if they had made the new sets ilevel 70-75 to give us some more itemization and choice other than DL. Especially since CT gear is so restricted.

i love haukke manor because of how fast it is, it's definitely the new go-to farm dungeon imo
