Why is that an issue? It doesn't make sense for anything to continue being hard once you've "mastered" the fight.
In the end a thread like this is pointless. Everyone defines difficulty their own way. You may not like that you can't control the world. That is life.
I think so too and I like it as is.
Randomizing fights can be fun for the first few runs, but unless the enemies are actually reacting to you, I'd rather take a more scripted fight in the long run over simply a randomized set of mechanics. That doesn't mean there can't be randomness in the script, but order is really a good thing.



That's what the community caused though.
People looked for a more efficient and more rewarding option, so the FATE training came to life.
The devs wanted us to keep killing and chaining single monsters in groups for hours, which was worse actually. I mean, all you did is running your rotations for hours and hours...
All the other things like rabbits, treasure hunting, challenge log/weekly quests, came much much much later.


Honestly, the game becomes too easy with one word: overgear.
If you overgear the content, any content is easy. There is a big difference on how much mobs a tank can pull at Akadaemia Anyder with gear synched down to i470 and i410. You can safely pull wall to wall with i470 without problems. Want to do the same with i410? Good luck.
Want to do it the hard way? Do it at min ilvl.


To be honest, I pulled wall to wall at i410 (Before 5.2 when they added the i470 sync) and had no problems. Same with Grand Cosmos at 430 and Anamnesis Anyder at 440 (My gear was so bad...). Heck, I was doing these as blind runs too so I was learning the tactics on the fly.Honestly, the game becomes too easy with one word: overgear.

Also, people do the hardest content in the game, week 1 (So min ilvl) to boot... (Though, that seems fairly par for the course in MMO's these days... Saying that, however, WoW's Mythic raids have taken 7-13 days for world firsts...)





Yeah, and humanity went from no spaceflight to the moon in less than a decade. That means it was super easy right?To be honest, I pulled wall to wall at i410 (Before 5.2 when they added the i470 sync) and had no problems.

Eh, that says more about how good your healer is, more than anything. When a tank is under-geared, it falls to the healer to pick up the slack.To be honest, I pulled wall to wall at i410 (Before 5.2 when they added the i470 sync) and had no problems.
