Cyclopean Halls

I tried the new dungeon yesterday and i have to say it is not fun to play, especially when you come to end boss, He is like Champion, i lost 2 lvl 20 thralls and i died and lost my inventory. So this dungeon is crap in my opinion. It is not worth doing to repair legendary items. It droped only 2 fragments and you need 5 but if you gona die everytime it is definitely not worth doing the dungeon. Better to farm for a new one, more fun and better chance to get one then repair^^. The enviroment in there was nice and fun but thats all.

The rewards are also very bad for the time investment and risk. Also, its faster to just farm keys and opening chest than to repair a legendary.

I jumped on all excited and logged out what felt like an eternity later after just circling around the tunnels looking for the way through and making zero progress. I’m sure I missed something I should have seen - I’d had a long day. But I could not be bothered continuing to search. But my first impressions were: well, this is bland. No story to finding it. No journals, no lore. Bland loot. Bland generic NPCs. Oh great: I’m back HERE again ffs…

Guess I will give it another shot on the weekend but from what I’m reading about the extreme punishment and low rewards, do I really have a reason to bore myself again on the off chance I might find my way through the dull tunnels just to have my best thralls killed and have to do it all 2-3 more times to repair one legendary?

Did anyone playtest this for you behind the scenes, devs?

We did it just fine 2 people 2nd try it is very underwhelming and not rewarding in anyway. better luck next time funcom.

I love the new dungeon, I like the story, the layout and especially the atmosphere. I love that the last boss is hard, but it seems that it has some spiky damage variables.

For me there are only 2 problems with the dungeon:
1 The thralls not coming in the 2/3 boss room
2 Bosses not dropping loot. First kill we did with multiple people and we were looking who ninjad the loot. Turns out that it’s possible the boss drops nothing, no gold or shard.

This dungeon is awful.

It’s huge, labyrinthine, and for nothing, because it’s mostly empty, with a few very generic foes and no recipes nor lore.

If you fail to dodge one of the final boss’ attacks, you’re basically dead - either because it one shots you, or because it staggers you and the next attack is undodgeable and finishes you.

When you die, you spawn back to the entrance, so basically, if you often get lost in huge spaces like I do, by the time you return, your body’s gone, and on top of that, the boss’ HP resets, but your followers’ do not. I lost two lv20 aesir warriors with optimal perks, warmaker-enhanced legendary weapons and perfected heavy sets.

And the reward ? You get to repair legendary weapons, BUT you’ll have to go through the whole dungeon everytime ! Why bother ? It’s much easier to farm new legendary weapons…

As usual, the reward is far from worth the effort, and the boss only has a few different patterns, the low number of which is compensated by how fast and hard it hits, while bypassing it with letting your thralls do the job while you chill on the side with a mask is the easiest way - and the most boring, but the other option is going dark souls mode and I just don’t have the time to trial and error and find my damn way back to the boss everytime I fail to dodge ONE hit.

I was a bit hyped, and now I’m reminded of why I hadn’t been for so long - everything they do is so poorly balanced it’s just not worth doing. Honestly SAD about it, because it feels like Sunken City / Wine Cave all over again, so my hopes are collapsing once again for the future of this game.

I find challenge as a reward… this game has becone waaat too easy.

it’s no fun cause you died ? :laughing:. get gud.

it’s a great dungeon, thanks FC. keep em coming!

dweebs and downers will always complaint.

Aren’t you complaining though at people complaining? don’t see how that is productive to anything. Such a bastion of positivity huh?

I am not complaining. i made a remark. they are two different things.

Hey Hansel, I agree it’s too easy. I didn’t find the dungeon challenging so far, just boring.

Should get Snowhunter and Pnutt to give it a an overhaul - they’d sort it out.

well the others are far more easier, if people does not pay attention to the boss mechanics, they will loose thralls,

Dungeon is fine. Finally they added difficult PvE. You can get lots of shards from the dungeon. Minibosses and chests drop them too. Please for the love of god devs don’t listen to people whining about this.

All the devs need to do is add content. Since this is the first part, people need to relax.

No, we arent getting everything at once.

Chill.

Lol!

I completed the dungeon in preview mode. It’s huge and has its own unique beauty.
It’s a shame there’s no story.
I realized I don’t need anything from there: no slaves, no legendary armor, no weapons. Repairing it also doesn’t make sense.

i was expecting some cyclops there too.

are u sure :slight_smile: ?

Absolutely. Just look at the parameters.
