Instead of just 1 or 2 people being the predominant ones in a raid, I think it's great that every team member in PoE has to do their share. I also like how the team is smaller and requires more communication, and for the most part their isn't any cheesing involved.
Edit 1: after close assessment and hours of research (input humor) I would like to clarify and state a conclusion.
First, I am mainly talking about SKOLAS and not lvl 32 or 34. I have defeated Skolas several times without the gjallahorn cheese (I don't have GHALLY after 1400 hours of play time) and I find it more rewarding killing this boss than any other.
Second, After my hours of research the majority that are responding "yes" are die hards like me, but are either part of a clan, or have a circle of friends that play together on a consistent basis.
In conclusion, POE gave those that don't have a big circle of friends a more inviting opportunity to get into the game a little bit easier and enjoy some end game content.

Where's the satire tag?

PoE, aka turn left, run, bubble, Gally.

Yes. PoE sucks. I know I am not alone with this thought.

Post patch Skolas is my favourite boss fight in the game. (Poor loot aside). Pre patch was my least favourite because people only ever wanted to burn it (and screwed up). It was worse that waiting for people to shoot out a pulse rifle to heavy ammo glitch crota. However, overall do I enjoy Poe above vault of glass currently? Definitely not. My issue is while I back myself to carry a group of randoms through vog hard in 80-100 minutes (coaching a few as we go), if I run out of time I can come back another day. Can't do that with Poe which means I feel like I'm squeezing skolas in, which is a shame. Inb4: I know skolas can be beaten start to finish in under 80-100 minutes, but not with randoms unless you get very lucky with your group. I'd be more than happy if they gave you a token when you got to skolas that redeemed when you killed him, but allowed you to rejoin maybe 3 times that week at the skolas fight. They can track it for trials so must be possible for Poe.

I wish I agreed with you. Honestly I tried to love Poe I just can't. It forced me to choose 2 of my 5 raid team members and I don't find the content that immersing. I prefer both raids to it. Still find myself running raids more than Poe.
-
Its more fun. Getting a group together is also less of a pain.
-
It's definitely more challenging at times. Especially much more so than Crota. But I still enjoy the vault of glass. I need to raid more, but I've never found a good team to play with constantly. I just never really found a clan or anything. It's sad because I'm a day one player and I've only got like 25 raid completions haha.

Using any weapon isn't a cheese... >.> That's like saying Icebreaker is a cheese when there's solar burn and/or juggler.
-
Gjallarhorn him fast wasn't a cheese it didn't exploit a mechanic of the game like pushing Templar or atheon off it simply was a great weapon for the solar modifier, I liked using black hammer better but it pisses me off that people don't know the correct definition of a cheese.

Me and my brother can duo every part of PoE (28-35) besides skolas. We get a third person to come in so we are not there all day. My point is that every member does not have to pull their own weight (besides in the last fight.) I know a few friends on my list that can solo up to the boss fight on 35. PoE also has some cheeses. Don't touch the ground and enemies won't enter the room (check hive mine glitch.) The heavy ammo variks gives will stay sometimes the whole PoE until you wipe. You can still do the heavy ammo glitch and practically have infinite Gjallarhorn ammo. PoE was fun for a while, but a raid would have be better. [spoiler]plus all of the PoE gear is Shyt. The armor,weapons, and even the flippin vanity items.[/spoiler]

Yes you are

Definitely agree. PoE is a great idea and should be expanded, hopefully someday with an endless survival mode. As a former Warcraft player I think calling VoG or Crota "Raids" is a stretch at best. These are basically the equivalent of instance dungeons.
-
It's awesome so far :)
-
-
I do too. It's way easier to get a team..... I have no friends
-
Yep, you are...
-
-
Vog is still more fun
-
Poe is alright. But raids are where its at
-
PoE is just another weekly activity you run through, kinda like Nightfalls. It's alright, but not up there with a raid.
-
Crota and Vault of Glass are both better than PoE. Poe is boring as hell
-
I am not a fan of poe. Is it challenging? Yes but to me its more of a chore and not worth it for the loot you get. In my opinion etheric light is the only good things you get from poe. But this is only my opinion.
-
I think it's great.
-
1 AntwortenYep your the only one..lol My clan misses the 6 man groups as we had a lot of fun with that. Yeah we can still go back and kill crota, and we do, but there is no challenge in running the old raids now. So we only do it so we can all play together.

1 AntwortenNo way its better raids are way more fun oke they are soo easy right now but POE it a stupid chaos and after all the hard work you will get a shit ton of poop
