IMO the dungeon sets should scale to your level, if not, then have tiers of them so you can pick up the level 80 version instead of just working yourkitten off for a skin you’ll end up transmuting to something else.

Do NOT nerf please.

It is amazing how much people complain over. I havent reached 80 and iam having a blast with the game. The repetition is only there if you want all the epic sets. And this post wanst about the grind. It was about keeping the content hard.

I would rather ask them to drop the price in the tokens than make it easier for you to grind.

I havent even grasped all the content in the game, iam working towards 100% map completition before goin crazy for dungeons and wvw. There is way too much content for 60$.

But lets keep the topic in track, DO NOT NERF hard content please

So…you haven’t even reached 80 or done the dungeons(explore mode)…yet you are forming an opinion on it……

…cool

Dungeon gear costs way too much

Arciel, that’s not an argument. You’re essentially saying that we can either play or we can quit. Why would some of us who have waited 7 years just quit the game because we have other commitments to our time and this game was advertised as being accommodating to those time commitments?

We don’t want it free. Many people have offered multiple ideas that still require work, one of the best being that the dungeon mobs and bosses drop more shards and actual gear. As it is, barely anyone goes to the more difficult wings of the dungeons.

They can either change the way dungeons work, or change their marketing to reflect what dungeons actually are and offer refunds to the people who feel lied to.

From the Dungeons Guide

…each dungeon has its own unique armors and weapons that can’t be found anywhere else. The armor from the Ascalonian Catacombs is different from what you’ll find in Sorrow’s Embrace, which is different from the treasure found in Caudecus’s Manor.

There is simply no truth to this statement until the gear actually drops in the dungeons.

Agreed. The fact that you don’t actually GET gear in the dungeons is what pisses me off. I’d be perfectly fine with the difficulty/bugs/length if we got a random piece of the set(for your armor style)…but no, enjoy farmingkitten amounts with pugs that will quit after the first death.

Corpse rushing - Shouldn't be possible.

Solution = do your best not to die and try to stick to mechanics, also full armor repair costs just a tad under 1 gold so no, you wont be able to do that on 80.

You have to keep a few of those repair canisters handy, otherwise you will go broke fairly quickly.

is it worth doing dungeons?

CoF expo and CM story…yes, but actually running them “legit”…no.

The rewards are way too overpriced and IMO ugly as sin, not to mention the dungeons themselves are some of the LEAST creative examples I’ve seen recently in MMOs.

Also, why the **** do I have INCREASED repair prices…yet I get DE-LEVELED for dungeons? That makes ZERO ****ing sense! ex: I go into CM @ 80, I get de-leveled, but when I die and go to repair…I pay lvl 80 prices…gee thanks a lot ANet.

Explorable dungeon's aren't hard...

+1 on the complaints about ranged combat. There are VERY few encounters where you can get away with melee combat, usually only bosses and even then still few.

The trash is WAY too OP and as someone said above, this is likely due to ANet wanting to keep a certain “pace” for a dungeon, which imo is bs and poor design.

Honestly, I think they need to sit down and re-tool EVERY dungeon and come up with some CREATIVE ideas, not just “oh lets put a trash mob here with 200% extra hp and stacking poisons/cripples”. Think up some clever puzzles/mini-bosses instead.

Until ANet puts some effort into their product…I won’t be putting much of my own effort into theirs(that includes money too).
