Am I the only one who misses more hard and immersing battles. Lupicus is the only boss right now that I find exciting and fun. You can’t find big and challenging battles if you don’t wanna climb the levels in fractals to battle lvl 40 Legendary etched shaman.
Also I find the story-telling in many dungeons lacking interesting points and things that make me care. The twilight arbor was interesting at first since I, being a sylvari and all, care about my race and what’s happening around them. I’m not talking about RP or anything like that.
I don’t know if I’m just being too strict and lift the bar too high but this is just how I feel. I know that many bosses end up being farmed for loot and lose their interest. The idea of dynamic events and bosses are what made me interested in this game from the beginning.
But being who I am, I would like to see something like “super dungeons” that would become infamous for their challenging content. Also there wouldn’t be paths like in the other dungeons but a long, linear adventure with an epic story. The story could introduce a new elder dragon as well but please, not the kind of battle as it was with Zhaitan. That was the biggest let down of the whole game. You would have to complete a long quest chain to enter the dungeon with your friends and the reward could be, you guessed it: pre-cursor. Also make pre-cursors you get from there soulbound so that people wouldn’t just buy them from trading post but would be forced to challenge these dungeons to gain them.
This was merely a piece of my mind and I realize that I might have not been able to explain my idea properly but I hope you get the general idea of what I’m talking about.
In a nutshell: Super dungeons of extreme difficulty that require organized team-play, immersing story, grand and special environment (not just like it is outside. A different dimension maybe), and a reward that gets people to join them. Precursor is an option but also different weapon and armor skins. Also completing the dungeon would trigger a cut-scene just like the one after Zhaitan.
