So a lot of discussion on this one… will add my .02 cents… I never viewed AC as real easy. Sure it was if you wanted to skip, but for those people who like to actually kill bosses instead of run by them, they buffed all the wrong area’s. Khoeler? Really? Let’s take the number one boss in the instance that no one wanted to do aaaaand… make it harder!! That’ll get people playing AC again. For people’s first dungeon experience in the game, this was not a smart move. It skews a lot of first timers opinion of the game and ultimately hurts everything all around, economy, group finding, game morale etc. I don’t like easy, that’s why I don’t like skipping, but I don’t want to bang my head against a boss whose mechanics lends to missing one move that one shots you. The guild on vent can call the rolls, but try pugging it with the added adds he now summons and incoming rage quits. Or the thing that really burns me… “let’s just skip guys…”
ANET, you need to evaluate your “buff” spots are not the spots that everyone already skips in the first place because it’s no longer fun.
