Guild Wars 2

Is there even any reason to have different difficulty modes, if the hardest difficulty gets nerfed to the point where anyone can complete it given a few hours of time?

I predict that W2Z3 is the next to be nerfed, once more casual players complete W2Z2.
It’s still the hardest zone, and remains mostly untouched by the update.

I would love if it stayed that way, but I’m sure the complaining will start soon enough.

Anybody could already complete it given a few hours of time and 600 gems to spend on the pay to win coin. Just need to hit up a youtube video and follow it step by step. Give it some trial and error and voila.

Trololololololol! Keep trying kid. No one in their right mind thinks that just anyone can beat TM in a few hours. So they added three checkpoints and fixed some broken crap and now it’s EZ mode? ROFL, that’s a good one.

Yes and no. Yes, they ‘fixed’ a bit too much for trib (oh, the geysers…). And no, very few ppl could complete even zone 1 in world 1 on trib given 5 hours (did it all with them, and many would quit half way at most :P)

Wouldn’t it then be a good idea to try normal mode first? Tribulation Mode wasn’t intended to be completed by anyone outside of the most hardcore players.

I retried it and beat it in less than an hour, I’m not really enjoying this SECOND Storm Wizard skin though, felt like I put no effort into getting it, and I feel extremely disappointed after all the effort I put into getting my Storm Wizard Greatsword knowing a bunch of casuals are just going to crawl along (When they eventually finish W1Z1 TM) and faceroll SAB TM W2.

….the fact that it’s your second skin means that even without the nerfs to the buggy sections, it’s going to be easier than the first because on your second time through, you KNOW HOW TO CLEAR IT ALL ALREADY.

Take a look at the last remaining content that had only light nerfs.
