Really late Deep Dungeon Feedback

This can be argued for literally every debuff.

Also making POTD easier is quite the middle finger to those who've solo cleared.

That's exactly why it's so hard to criticize debuffs. But I'm only arguing for No Abilities to be deleted since that debuff in particular is essentially a "Damage Down" debuff but significantly worse.

Unlike literally every other debuff, you are limited to a gutted rotation and can't be creative with your solutions to kill mobs. For instance, it becomes significantly more dangerous to use landmines/silver chests.

In every case, if you're forced to fight against No Abilities in the later floors, you'll end up wasting even more time in comparison to every other debuff. Even moreso if it's layered with more debuffs.

The only solution to prevent such a significant time-loss is using a Serenity. Sure. But then if you get multiple floors that forces you to eat all of your serenities (suppose you get seriously unlucky in your floor set and consistently get disgusting triple debuffs), well that's just you being unlucky, right?

A hard reliance on Serenity is just bad design when every other debuff isn't as suffocating as "No Abilities" (aside from "No Items", which I don't take issue with). I seriously don't understand how anyone can have fun at that point. If you do, please let me know how you can.

Okay, but straight up deleting it would make it "easier" by removing a vector of bad RNG. Right. If you still wanted to retain that same difficulty, you could simply just increase the potency of "Damage Down" to be just as effective as "No Abilities". When you do that, at least you can still be creative with how you tackle the problem because you can actually press your buttons.

Would that still be a middle finger to those who solo cleared? I don't think so. You don't have fun when you spend 10+ hours on a POTD run only to realize that you weren't lucky enough to win.
