I do not know what universe ‘one-shot killer’ mobs and ‘15+minute-to-kill’ mobs are ‘difficult’ in such a mild way…but it isn’t. It is complete and utterly ridiculous and it needs to be toned down…no one wishes to spend an hour playing their character on the ground or wasting money repairing their armor 20+ times to finish a dungeon. This is to the producers and creators of the game…responses from other players will be against this, only because it isn’t the popular, but is the most logical, response to such ridiculousness in the dungeon make.
First Reason: It gives no credit to your character and their make. I shall explain this because many might take this the wrong way. When you have a character…that spanked dragons…yet in a dungeon…a hunting dog one-shots you? It’s a joke.
Second Reason: It does not reward skill if you dodge 2 attacks…only to die from a 3rd hit in an enemy combo in one hit. It leaves no room for error…and human beings that are actual humans with lives…make errors.
Third Reason: Not everyone is a hardcore player. Not everyone wishes to break the bones in their hands just to win a fight after a good 20-30 minutes against one mob.
Fourth Reason: Rewards are a joke. You don’t even get Rares! You get Masterwork or less! Sometimes you don’t even get ANYTHING!
Fifth Reason: Having to do it 5-6-7 times just to get ONE piece of exotic gear that LOOKS good? Yet another joke.
Now…the normal pve content is borderline crazy in it’s damage and mob ganking as well…I can see against a dragon…but just because a rabbit…or a squirrel has ‘Champion’ over their heads, doesn’t mean they should be jumped by 10+ players to be defeated. This? Is yet another joke. All in all? This is Warcraft 3.0…much better than it’s predecessor, but still has that joke mechanic of ‘ranking’ mobs that do not deserve said rank. That said…what about a player having said rank for a change? Why not have a player be strong enough to hold an enemy face to face after earning such power? It gets old laying on the ground, watching the fight from there, because you just got one-shotted or mobbed by 3-10 enemies at once.
