Please stop crying :=0) (new expert dungeons)

[Synestr]

It has been, what two weeks since they have been released and still people are crying about them being "overtuned"...

They are not. They are fine just the way they are. They were designed to be difficult and it time that we, ladies and gentlemen, step up to the plate and handle business.

Just because you can't faceroll through it like previous content doesn't make it too hard, it makes it challenging.

So please; SE, Yoshida and crew, do not NERF the new duties.

And they're not even that hard once you get practice. Once people start gearing poetics/dreadwyrm, dungeons are going to get even easier.

[Alistaire]

If anything, they're kind of disappointingly easy once you know what to do.

^ if you think the dungeons are hard you're doing it wrong.

Snowcloak is one of the most fun dungeons in the game.

Qarn has some really nice boss mechanics.

Sastasha is great but the DPS check on the 2nd boss can be pretty tight and the Kraken takes 500 years to kill.

Think they're all pretty sweet tho. Only real argument I could see for anything being "overtuned" is the 2nd boss of Sastasha, though I think it's still doable as long as you understand how it works and save CDs for the shots.

Sastasha's 2nd boss is easy once you know the gunfire always happens after he runs at someone, even if your DPS isn't the best. It gives you an extra second or two to react and change to focusing on him/focusing on healing which makes a world of difference for both DPS and Healers.

The only reason people are complaining is because SE decided to introduce some mechanics that put more pressure on the DPS to be good (do things other than mindless damage) and they either can't, or are just too lazy to handle that kind of pressure.

[Leigaon]

Nothing too difficult with these dungeons, I feel they're like every other ones that have came up so far. You don't know exactly what to do..so you got to figure it out. Some things require you to act differently than you would normally as your job. They're fun and beautiful..keep it up Dev team.

This is it basically and it's also why that new Ultros trial is such a pain in the backside on DF when people don't know what to do. You need all the DPS to know what to do and do their piece right for the first half of the fight and more often than not they can't handle something more complicated than spam AoE's. I think it's great and a nice change to give importance to the DPS role who more often than not have to rely on the Tank and Healer doing their bit. All the dungeons really have some form of DPS role Cactus on Qarn and Snowballs in Snowcloak etc Sastasha has the first boss that a DRG can be the stunner for it also has a nice little healer check with the slime.

These are fun mechanics that require everyone to think and do their part. I think a lot more effort was put into these dungeons than the previous hard modes. Once everyone knows the dungeons inside and out and has better gear they will be faceroll anyway Snowcloak basically already is so enjoy things while they are fun.

you never ventured in AK with iLv55-60 gear back at the time of 2.0, I guess.
