mechanic replacement

[Asari5]

i've just been in castrum abania, the lvl 69 dungeon.

it disappointed me to see how the second boss got changed. do you remember it? the boss who creates a barrier which sends back any dmg to you unless you take on a certain element?
yeah, thats no more. that mechanic got replaced with.. who would have thought? AOE's... the elements became mere visuals.
cant we be expected to think the least little bit anymore? or was it too difficult to make the trust stand inside a specific element?

Idk why they even changed stormblood bosses... They for the most part seemed modern and functional.
ARR and some of heavensward i understand, but stormblood boss changes was a waste of a dev time IMO

I can not imagine that this was necessary to make this dungeon work with trusts. There is no way they couldnt have just made trusts go to the correct area.

Because in almost every single party, you were hard carrying at least one person through that boss. People don't read in dungeons anymore so SE removes reading requirements from dungeon mechanics.

Everything got dumb down so NPC trust can handle mechanics, also a reason why boss teleport to center for most mechanics as a BOT would have hard time repositioning bosses

Of all the mechanics to go, this is a great one to get rid of.
I get this dungeon so rarely I forget how this boss works every single time, only working it out again when he's basically dead.

Terrible take. Bet you think running Labyrinth of ancients on Raid roulette again and again is good too cause 0 difficulty.

I loath getting any Crystal Tower raid. I'd gladly take Orbonne every day over that. Original Orbonne before it was nerfed.
Try again.

Same. Im glad im not the only one to see this mechanic go for pretty much the same reason. With randoms its almost a guaranteed wipe. No more.

You must be unironically special if that is hard to work out as someone who has played at least since SB.

You too

The real reason Castrum Abania is nerfed is because they need to cater to special needs as illustrated by these two bright talented young men
