Guild Wars 2

So I love entering the battlegrounds only to sit inside a keep or sit back watching one side creep towards the other with red circles. Seems like that is all that happens, the side with the largest and most aggressive red circles is going to push the other while the melee types like myself only stand beside the circle tossers as like an empty threat.

I want to engage a group of people, but I cannot. The second I cross the red circle wall I am insta-downed with a sweet repair bill on the way.

Just for giggles lets suppose I make it across the valley of red-death and do my burst combo. Bull Rush, Frenzy, Hundred Blades and down a person. I get pounced on faster than I can react and he is back up and I am dead.

Does anyone else feel the same?

I agree with everything Voxnor.1657 has said.

I’m with the Urrelles. There is simply no reason story mode dungeons should be this hard.

It’s a STORY MODE dungeon. It SHOULD be easy enough that you can take your bad friend or pug with you and totally smoke it. At level 80 in full exotic gear ALL story mode dungeons should be easy to moderate difficulty without a huge learning curve. The fact that are so hard with so little reward is unacceptable in regards to everything ANET has advertised prior to launch.

I agree with the OP immensely. I play online games to enjoy the content with friends. We have found that the amount of frustration and lack of reward for doing dungeons now has made most of us unwilling to even do story modes. We honestly get more out of our time by doing other things in the game at the moment. This is a shame, because we really wanted to run dungeons.

I remember the video back in the day where one of the devs said something like, “You can all play the same class and still play together.”

Clearly that isn’t the case.
