BA shows that we fail as a Community (big time)

[RitsukoSonoda]

If content doesn't inspire people to work together then it's the design that has failed. 24 man raids do just fine in getting a big group of total strangers to co-operate and teach each other.

24 man raids for the most part only work because they're queueable in duty finder. The primary botch I see on BA is the way they chose to implement entrance with the whole scattered random portals thing. Aside from that it's just a higher chance of getting a random idiot because the player count is higher. However its a risk on any duty even with premades unless you only invite people you know specifically beforehand. I still see instances of titan EX where all but myself and 1 other person get launched off the platform on the first landslide.

honestly running BA would be a complete joke if it wasn't for the resurrection restriction debuff. Maybe that's how they'll eventually nerf it, just remove that debuff and the average eureka players strategy of clumsily dps while standing in literally every aoe will get you through

I'm doing a BA pre-made, and someone got sniped. And the random that entered instant left.
I hope this kind of behavior is reportable, cause it's clearly detrimental and of not good will.

We are super nice and polite, we invite to the discord. Yet players keep doing that, just because they can. Is it right? I feel sad for the one that didn't get in, we did strive for 1~2h to get everything together =/.

Not reportable unless they said somewhere that they were doing it maliciously.

Perhaps they were just ignorant of what they were doing and didn't know the ramifications of leaving.

I think they should remove the "no rez" debuff in the instance when you are not on the bosses. Only allow raises from the Logo's action, maybe lower that from 99 uses to like 3 or 5. When the boss is up and the fight starts no raising can happen outside of Rememberance, that way a wipe is still possible on AV and Ozma but not as bad on doing trash and lower bosses. I think that would be a good solution for making it easier but not super easy.

There's no thing as ignorance when everyone had to agree to BA's difficulty to unlock it. We did communicate, but he just waited for the red portal and entered anyway.

Red portals are fair game for anyone to enter (IIRC). He / she did nothing reportable there.

I hope it become reportable in the future then. Cause this is not right.

This is pretty much my view of it. BA hasn't really shown the community failing so much as it simply has limits of cooperative ability that devs either forgot to take into account or are unsure of how to take it into account. Either way, it's the creators of the content--not the consumers--who are at fault for the issues surrounding BA and the lack of consideration toward what few players are willing to drag their way through the four hells of Eureka in order to put up with running it.
