Raid (Hard Mode: An idea)

[SionDurant]

In 2.0, we have something else planned that is slightly different than "Hard" mode and instead of increasing the drop rates, the rewards will be fitting for what's being planned.

Me likes, I guess.

Incoming annoyingly terrible drop rate once again?

Incoming annoyingly terrible drop rate once again?

pretty much... unless the Japanese forum complains about it

[ChiefCurrahee]

It just means not only will there be a speed run reward, it means there will be a super speed run reward. YAY!

[Sigmakan]

Rewards will be HQ Vampire Plants instead of NQ.

Oh you guys lol

[Madruk]

ie do easy mode for 1% drop rates, or hard for 1% drop rates.

While I do think SE has had a very bad history of never giving a straight answer, both Yoshi-P and the community team here have, in general, been extremely open with players. That doesn't mean they need to answer everything you ask immediately. Even the most open developers around don't tell you everything, especially if the idea's still in planning.

Basically, you can't forbid them from having any secrets at all just because the old management treated game development like stage magicians protecting their tricks illusions.

I've been thinking if parties are able to speed run this content now consistently and comfortably with their current setup and gear they have... what content could be present out there that will challenge them when they're fully outfitted?

Your so called new 'hard modes but not hard modes' need to have a guaranteed drop. Balance the content and said drops around how many players you want actually completing them, rather than asinine RNG. Reward player and group skill. .8% drop rate on Darklight is not very fun.
