VOG wasn't bad ...
But Skolas..... That guy was a $&@$
Not only was the final boss time consuming to get to , but the boss fight (if you were still new to it) could take hours. With the wipes and waiting for heavy ammo synth...
Still remember being in party chat with a mate of mine while she was trying to get it done for the first time... I think they had been at it for 4 hours (when I jumped in) and abandoned it at the 6hr mark...

Skolas was artificially difficult though. He wasn't so much a difficult boss as they threw so many bullshit modifiers at us. Raids don't have modifiers (other than heroic). VoG was difficult at its core because of the mechanics until you learned to run it like a well oiled machine. CoE is also artificially difficult. The mechanics aren't hard, they just purposely throw bullshit at us.

That's what I'm saying... The modifiers made it difficult. But once you learned a VoG (HM or NM) you knew it and you had to trust that the rest of your team did too. Trust me totally agree the VOG was one of the harder raids , I just don't feel that even in hard mode it was the worst after you knew the routine..
-
Yeah. I agree. Did two 4+ hour attempts at it with regular teammates and we failed miserably. Figured I would try 1 more time. Beat it with 2 randoms who hadn't beat it either and had similar experiences. Once wiped once too that time. Still took over an hour. Never went back!
-
My first run went smoothly, the guys I beat it with knew it inside out and taught me the rotations etc. Did all my exotics etc After ttk dropped the only time I went back to finish the prick off again after the new PoE dropped , completed it in under 30 mins
-
I thought about going back but then thought again and said nope!! Don't even care if it's easy now.
-
I only did I coz the wife has started to play (enough that she has overtaken me in hours played and PVP skill) and she had never completed it.... Needless to say she was like "WTF this is what you guys (my old clan and I) used to bitch about..."
-
Lol. Tell her to try it with year 1 gear.
-
It's not the gear, it's the level. Tho year one gear will hurt you in the stats area.
-
Yeah true. Hadn't really considered the level. Once you hit 40 I kind of forget about it. It's all about LL then.
