Every designer should get into the server and play the game

Tell me I’m wrong.

You’re wrong.

@MarcosC

And some people complain because the changes made combat too easy and uninteresting.

Bingo!

@Kapoteeni

I can’t remember the last time I’ve died fighting anything in the game before the AoW update, and I’ve soloed all content in the game.

I can remember plenty of times I died fighting in PVE before AoW. Most of those times were because I got too cocky, the rest because I had a lag spike.

After the AoW update, it became harder than ever in this game to die because you were careless. Pretty much the only place I’ve gotten my ass kicked because I got cocky was around the Volcanic Forge.

@LostBrythunian

In the Devstream they even noted how disincentivized one is to engage with the relatively static content.
Their fix was to strip repairability from Legendary items. Not fix the stale bosses, not make the game more fun, no, their idea of enhanced playability is to strip options away.

But that’s good, because now those items are tRuLy LeGeNdArY

@SpherisCore

Right now, dodging is OP and it costs nothing, making you OP as a result.

Hell man, I used to have a shield on me to solo Rocklisde/Rotbranch because it was more stamina efficient, but now I just dodge instead since it’s free

Don’t worry. They’ll read the forums and decide that the only thing that really needs to be done about this whole system is to nerf the dodge into uselessness.
