Soooo about a month in, and still nothing difficult at all about the new PoE. No objectives, no hard mods (and there's only 2), he points are never difficult to achieve, this activity is straight up boring. I haven't even finished an elder sigil since the first week because I just can't bear the idea of slugging through that trash again 3 times a week. Anyone else incredibly disappointed?

My reaction when Variks was getting impatient xD
In all seriousness though, that's not right. My buddy and I ran through it once before hand (he was 315 and I was 310) and had no problems at all. Not even a slight challenge. So I figured I'd make a solo run...
It was challenging but not nearly as challenging as some other things I've done. To be that under leveled on my first day trying it and still complete it that easily is ridiculous. I was really hoping for some Qodron/Skolas type of boss fights. [i]Final score was 35,560 for those that want to know [/i]
Also, -blam!- that introduction to Sylok
Edit: For those of you that are bringing up the easy modifier set and saying it'll be harder in the future, I hope you're right, but keep this in mind:
1. Small arms isn't all good. Your special and heavy weapon damage is significantly reduced. My 1kys couldn't even kill the vandals with a precision hit. Even with small arms on the vandals took 6 dis47 headshots to bring down.
2. Being that under leveled is like having every burn on all the time (including lightswitch), except you're not benefiting from the damage boost of actual burn modifiers.
If it can be done solo that under level, you really think it's going to be any harder when we have full teams of 335s? I don't care what mods they add, I have a hard time believing it'll be that difficult. [/spoiler]

2 RespuestasI'm guessing future runs will be point and time based, making solo runs less likely
-
1 RespuestaIs it so bad that there is something that is actually consistently fun, where you can push to beat your teammate's or high score, and is not terribly time consuming to go to for decent rewards?
-
Honestly it's probably just because of the modifiers. Small arms makes everything easier.
-
1 RespuestaThey should just make the penalty for time actually make things hard. That would make soloing it (underleveled anyways) very hard. The current penalty does like nothing... Either make it count or start spamming ogres/minotaurs/captains/rockets mcdick face like when a boss enrages.

1 RespuestaWhat happens when Variks gets inpatient
-
Nice. I did my very first run last night by myself as a 314 hunter. Bumped my No Time To Explain up to 317 and ran with that, it worked quite nicely. Got a 320 blue glowy hand cannon out of it. Today I'm going to get my wife to play, too. She's a few months out of practice, but I can do it solo, we shouldn't have any problems.

I have solo'ed it like 10 times already [spoiler]I was a 320 titan w/bubble and mida[/spoiler]

12 RespuestasHow are you solo guys killing Sylok? I died a few times trying and just turned the console off after a few attempts. My LL is high, I'm just not very good. But I soloed the first 2 rounds pretty easy so I'm sure I can do it. Any thoughts?
-
9 RespuestasIt's a challenge mode because you can't reach 30,000 points going solo.
-
1 RespuestaAnyone else suprised at the lack of majors? (Yellow bars)
-
I think it's kinda fun and rewarding. Extremely casual but still. It would make it better for them to have a challenge mode like the old ones that resets each week like a nightfall
-
I love how Variks just has to [u][b]scream[/b][/u] Sylok's name
-
We helped a friend this morning, he was 295 light. He didn't even die once.
-
5 RespuestasFair enough But the scoring is stupid How am I supposed to get 90,000 by myself There's only so much I can do [i]till variks is getting impatient[/i] Stupid impatient -blam!-
-
1 RespuestaThe damage isn't reduced on specials and heavies, at 309 light you're facing a damage reduction to all your output. Small arms is meaning you aren't noticing it on your primary. Same problem when you run hard mode raid below 310 and Poe 35 (year 1) at lvl 34. GG on running it solo, gave up after a few solo runs tapping out on sylok.
-
2 RespuestasI keep saying over and over, we gonna have a wake up call when we don't have small arms.
-
Congrats

3 RespuestasThis update is for all the casuals. Trying to rope them back in.
-
1 RespuestaAlso, nice Hawksaw :)
-
The challenge is to see how many points you can get with the modifiers active, not "holy hell i'm dying all the time." 41 POE is much harder to me than Challenge mode to CLEAR, but it's a different challenge.

2 RespuestasEditado por Cromegas_Flare: 4/15/2016 6:17:38 PMI don't think Small Arms was the only reason. You also had a buff in persision kills, at least in a sense of getting more points. Imagine it without that buff. Each battle going on a bit longer and points harder to retrieve after Variks becomes bored. In the end, I was a combination of both modifiers that made it easy. Using Ace of Spades got me quick persision kills, so I was able to get points easily.
