/Accuse @ the devs: have you set us up to fail...?

[Darrcyphfeid]

EXACTLY! Mind you, I hit 70 within the first week of SB, so didn't have the gears we do now...so I wasn't able to complete it(I am definitely nowhere near one of the best DRGs out there, but I have been able to hold my own)

I'm a pretty solid DRG, but I wasn't really paying too much attention and missed the cue to Elusive Jump. So I died. No biggie, restart, get to that point again, Elusive Jump, go back to not really paying attention while doing my rotation. See the message to stand next to an NPC to get some heals, didn't bother confirming the name and stood next to the friendly combat NPC that has a name plate... and I die. Oh. It's the little unmarked NPC hanging out in the back? Okay. Start round 3... oh I have Echo now? That's insulting funny.

Probably like you I was rocking a mixture of i270 Augmented Shire and the couple drops I got from dungeons along the way. Some people towards the end of this expansion are going to roll in there with ~i360 gear, or next expansion with vendorable i385 gear, and curbstomp this thing without seeing any of those details. How does that help them improve or gauge their own progression, Square?

Yeah...I think I failed it 4 times before I finally looked up online why I was failing it...I honestly NEVER used Elusive Jump before that fight, since I would always just run out of the telegraphs. Since then, I've used it more often.
