They might as well remove them. TA explore doesn’t have any and that is one that desperately needs it due to a mass amount of killer flowers.
One shot kill mechanics are bad design in any game. They are a gimmick that is used to hide bad programming and initial design. There are snipers in CM that can one shot you from a tower, guess what is in the way? If I remember correctly it’s 12 mobs. You can’t keep smoke screen or wall of reflection up long enough. Keep in mind this is suppose to be done at level 40! You can get 1 shot by them even at level 80. It’s ridiculous.
Being CC’d to death is a another problem not only in CM but TA, CoF and so forth. Used to stop people from trying to run past mobs when simply putting up a barrier that is destroyed/removed when the trash is killed would of sufficed instead of being unable to move your character. No amount of skill is going to save you from being chain CC’d. Granted there are skills that can get you out, anything with stability or a thief’s blinding powder for example. However you can’t keep it up the whole fight since even trash have a tonne of HP.
Lastly some events are totally ridiculous. I will go back to CoF just because it is ran frequently by the masses. The torch event in path 3 is like pulling teeth. It’s literally the first thing you have to do in the path. Why would torches go out after 5 seconds with respawning mobs? The Magg bomb event has been discussed to death.
To summarize my argument, cheap gimmicks combined with ridiculous events make the dungeons frustrating rather than challenging and fun like they should be.
