It wasn't as bad as I thought.
I think the negative sentiments are exaggerated.
Here's the issue, particularly relevant... if there is a flag, how about an overview tooltip there?
Instead of, I'm paraphrasing... "[find this spot for further instructions]"... amidst aggro.
So, if you're a new player... basically, 'Go die here'... then 'Go die there'.
That's final boss, just put a tooltip at the flag.
2. 1st boss... when you activate deepsight to see the runes, it shows every rune right now... or does for me, not just the 3 I need.
Now when you're underwater, that doesn't matter because it shows you what 3 with markers.
The issue is when a player moves to normal those markers won't be there, and when you activate deepsight... it will only show the ones to touch.
I'm okay with the markers, but it should only show the runes you need up top.
The confusion might come when they have to remember what runes showed and their positions underwater.
And again, a tooltip overview at the flag.
I played it, or tried to ... as if I was new. Which, lol, was easy... because I forgot a bunch.
I'm not a fan of the Traversal... nothing feels worse than missing a bubble and then just waiting to die. I don't even really do it, I just skip... the skip paths still work, you still need bubbles... but you can just fall to bottom in each section... there's paths, probably vids on the tube showing them.
Boss fight yes, it's fine... but otherwise this dungeon would be so much better if you just removed the mechanic in transition... or triple the amount of bubbles.
I found something else out too 😁.
I usually try to do my 1st runs solo... because I have a friend I help, I want to be dialed in. This time I had him join me after the first encounter...
So, we had to do another run immediately after...
FIRST ENCOUNTER is farm'able for manifold and drops... I didn't think it would be on Explore much like SotW wasn't.
It is. So, if you don't want to farm the first boss... which is quicker, you just want a relaxing stress free grind that's still pretty rewarding and worth the time... about 10 mins....
Complete the quest.
After, farm the 1st encounter.

My thoughts: after watching several videos I’m going to take a hard pass. I normally steer clear of dungeons. I got through Spire…and enjoy levelling-up weapons in the first encounter. But that’s it. I see no fun elements in GotD whatsoever…just way too much Neomuna Overtuna grind. ❌ That is all. Carry On. Ease Springs! 🤖

The traversal is why I didn't like this dungeon. I've just done normal and master final boss checkpoints after a couple full runs. I have the same issue with deepstone I hate doing the opening so after flawless I never did that part again. RoN traversal opening irritated me too so I join when they get to the 1st encounter. Got the title for crota but unfortunately you need to do the abyss because its an encounter. I hate the swinging yambags the hit box is ridiculously large which made it take forever on master
