Is endgame right now just speed rushing dungeons?

    At the moment yeah, I assume it's in place to keep people from getting to the real end-game so that we take longer to complete it, which I'm fine with for the time being - but I hope it's not a permanent thing. I don't want every patch to come with an extra token grind.

    Essentially, yes - for about a week or two.

    Basically, you want to have one ilevel 90 item (relic or chest - depending) and full ilevel 70 before you even think about tackling coil in any serious fashion.

    That brings us to a pretty glaring design flaw.  The only way to get ilevel 90 is to obtain Tomestones of Mythology, which are capped at 300 per week.  The only way to get those tomes is through running Ampador Keep or other HM Primals.  Assuming the DF queues are reasonably low, AK is normally the fastest way of doing it.

    Thus, people speed run.  None of us really enjoy the dungeon, we go on full on auto pilot and just blow through it.  After you've run it 40+ times, I think you'll sort of understand why we don't like people that take their time with it.

    That said, I won't bring PUGs with me - ever.  I respect that you want the full game experience and I expect that you have a similar respect for my time.  That's why PUGs and FCs exist.

    Thank you, your post confirmed in several ways why this title isn't one I would enjoy.

     

    Well, the title has a ton of reasons to enjoy it other than the way you perceive a couple launch features on a forum, that's an important thing to realize, nothing is ever as it sounds on paper. The game is enjoyable as it is, even in the state that OP is questioning.

    Unless of course you already have a predisposition, and as the standard MMORPG.com user does when they have a predisposition, they assume the person defending and enjoying their experience is as equally obsesssed with derailing someone's entertainment as they are.

    Yet you keep coming here. Not that I don't believe you, but you seem to need a lot of reasons to not enjoy this game before letting go!

    Just because I don't play a particular MMORPG doesn't mean I don't have an interest in the topics (especially on newer titles) nor wish to weigh in with my comments on them.

    Isn't the official forums somewhere over there maybe? ------>

    Perhaps you would enjoy them more where everything is undoubtedly all butterflies and fairies. image

    Lol I dont know about butterflies and fairies (have you ever been to an official forum before?) but at least the people commenting there actually play the game they're commenting on.

    Using LOL is like saying "my argument sucks but I still want to disagree".

    Man you know that this place is full of bias when it comes to opinions on games both positive and negative. You're looking for reasons to bandwagon the negative and are validating those reasons through negative opinions. Its like you're hating vicariously lol. You're better than that!
