The Dead Ends is yet another error in the push to make everything hardcore

[Amariel34]

For me personally, Dead Ends is nowhere NEAR as difficult as Shinryu was when SB first dropped. It took me 3 days to finally find a group that beat it, and it was almost a tie between him dying and the last person standing (healer) dying. I know they nerfed it at some point, but in the beginning it was HARD. But beating it was worth it.

They never actually made Shinryu easier. Even when people complained, they never made him easier and the response was basically, get good. After 2 expansions of action changes and higher ilevels, he goes down quickly now, just like everything else that is in the same boat.

Ah. I thought I saw something in the patch notes once they he was nerfed in some way. My mistake.

They aren't ridiculously difficult. They are faster paced yet still very easy to do and this is probably why they have been making classes easier to play.

The Heroes' Gauntlet was not difficult. It's actually one of the most boring dungeons and I'm so tired of doing it. This is a welcome change in EW.

They are dungeons, so if you do get hit by things you will probably still get through it. It's not like savage where your mistake wipes everyone else, so you can get a res.

hmm, this topic appears right after someone mentioned that they're surprised that no one has complained that the last dungeon totally has extreme and savage mechanics
what a coincidink!

If you’re so bad at this game that you can’t think and breath at the same time….
Maybe.. you shouldn’t be playing it.

There are harder dungeons with more going on. Why not make a thread complaining about all of them? Zot had way more going on for mechs for example so how did you beat that?

I think I died maybe once on the second boss in that dungeon. Other than that I had no trouble.

I died in trusts on the second boss a few times as I kept picking the same safe spot as Alisae during the section where it give you spread mechanics that will kill you if you overlap them.

But trusts are very predictable so once I figured out where Alisae and Urianger went for that mechanic it was smooth sailing for the final attempt.

Have not died to that mechanic with trusts since. Don't think I died when I did it with others either.

The Dead Ends is hard?
