i'm guessing you are the one that just started playing. the nm's were alot more difficult(even in 15 man parties) when they were first released than the dungeons were.

why you may ask?

the game was released in september and the nm's were introduced in january which meant you had 4 months of learning of the battle system and getting accustomed to it. even when those nm's came out they lasted much longer than the 1 week the darkhold held people before they figured out the easiest way to defeat it. i can't tell you how many times the dodore defeated the 15 man parties before people figured out the strategy to beat it. yes, it became super easy once people figured out emulate, but it lasted quite a while before that.

a new battle system was released at the same time the dungeon was and within a week there were ls's already farming the loot out of there. they were already using the new system figured it out enough to beat the dungeon within a week. a week.

i take months to drop all of the nm's with a system they had been using as being much more difficult than using a new system and beating a dungeon within a week.

i completed darkhold on my second run, but i can assure you i did not beat every nm, even with those 15 man parties, on my second attempt.

lol not even close, our linkshell killed all the NM's before we had a tank with emulate, and couldn't even field 10 50's at a time (let alone the multi-class ability combinations people are capable of today). The mobs themselves weren't even close to as difficult as Deepvoid/Batraal (most everyone in the endgame community agrees on this), but maybe if you had weaker groups then it might have seemed that way.


Go try the NM's now if you still have access to 7 other people willing to do them. They are much harder than they were then, even considering how much more skilled/equiped/stocked with different abilities people are now compared to January.
