Guild Wars 2

This is what too many people keep saying and its annoying.
If you want a guide and someone to hold your hand through everything in the entire game and within 1 hour of new content coming out, before trying it more than a few times you feel that its impossible to complete, maybe you should try something else

By no means am I complaining, I had plenty of fails when I did it but after 90 mins to 2 hours I did it with my guild and then we did it again after reset in 40 mins.

If you truly keep having problems and feel the need to complain publicly about the difficulty of content ask yourself these questions.
1) Have I considered checking group composition, do we have a good setup of classes etc or are we all full berserker, all dying, and wondering why?
2)Are we all using food buffs and ALSO weapon buffs AKA sharpening stones or weapon coatings etc etc from weaponcrafting skills or buy off TP
3) Have we strategized and thought about the fight in depth or am I doing the same thing over and over, expecting different results?
4) Is this content for me? – If you cant do it and it makes you SO mad, angry or whatever that you need to rage, maybe just ignore it and carry on doing what you were doing, after all there will be something new in 2 weeks which might be more acceptable.

Generally speaking, if you cant do something for hours and get mad, and others have already done it several times, chances are its not too hard at all and you are simply doing something wrong.

I’m glad they are not spoon feeding us content anymore. I like the challenging content they make, it makes the game more interesting. Speaking of content, the new sneak peek is like “Come at me, bro!”

Just stand next to Spark and dodge the ooze here and there. This dungeon is easy.

No, you should leave. Play a really easy game. But I am hardpressed to recommend one which is easier than GW2.

I agree with the op here. Great job done by ANet. Random guildless button-mashing pugs with no idea of what coordination even means are the ones with trouble with it, not those who pay attention to what’s going on and enjoy a good challenge with their guild/friends.

Dungeon is easy.

Get good.

You could always try to vent your frustration by farming champs.

If champ trains are too difficult for you…. I… eh.. yeah, you should quit.

Well, if WoW stopped making raids…..

Dungeon is fine except they need to fix the hitching on the broken hologram things on the end boss. Nothing like getting caught on the corner of one of those hologram things and then insta ported into 2 or 3 whirling gears and insta killed.

maybe because dps was not enough….
This is the usual DPS dungeon….anything that isn t zerker makes things harder.

TA new = COF3

I think major flaw is that the dungeon will be soon easy for organized parties but still boring for both pugs and organized parties…

Thus will have the same fate as cof3 some people do that but not often.

Its not hard if you know the strategies for each fight. If everyone does and does what theyre supposed to be doing the dungeon is relatively easy. You dont need the optimal setup, gear or specs even.

So what i suggest that you (as person that doesnt like “hard” content) should do is wait. Watch a video showing the strategies for each and every fight and retry it in a few days. By then most people will know hot to deal with every puzzle and fight in there and you would be aswell since you watched the video

Once you did that you can come back here and tell us how it wasnt that bad afterall.

With that said i must say that this is probably the best 5 man instance i ever played in any MMO. An instance that relies on mechanics and teamwork instead of boring zergcontent.
