Ok so GWEN came and went, what shall we nerf?

GWEN as most of us were lead to believe was supposed to be high end content. In the preview we saw mid level content with overpowered skills. How is this high end? Most of us already finished the Norm story path which should be a quarter of the game tops and got all the PvE only skills in one day. So about 5 days assuming there is a longer ending and the bulk should be one. Add a day or two of most players finish the bulk of the expansion and now are left with just grind for bonuses in GW2 if they wish to play that game.

The stuff we played was not even on par with late mid end content from Factions or Prop. Let alone true high end like DoA, or later FoW or UW. If you assume DoA is too hard for the normal player, then high end content is not for you. Improve your playing and you will be able to do it. Do not ask for a instant kill button though as some seem to want and which we practically already have.

As for balance for new players, this game is not for new players. You cannot create a new character in it, and IMO, it should be restricted to player who already beaten a game, not got run to the Droks and power leveled. The reason you see so many people paying for runs and runs through missions, is because they do not want to play, and would instead have their characters run through everything till they get to what they need to solo farm.

As for people being stuck completely, what did people expect when heroes are more powerful than players, and henchmen can even replace most PuGs? If someone is stuck, that is the nature of this game now. They have to get better to move on because unless they get a guild no one will help them except other people without in game friends or people as equally bad.

But for the majority of players we are all high level, been through elite areas, have various builds that work well in most areas, ideal armor sets and weapons so the high end game we get is just too easy. Most dungeons can be done with a bring whatever mindset and beaten the first time. I have yet to have even half the party wipe in the dungeons, let alone the easy outside that I was already solo farming a bit near the end of the expansion.

Oh well I guess this is what the community wanted then. A brainless grind game that will give them plenty of time to build up their hall of monuments for free stuff come the second game. Just sad this game is easier than the three starter games and no doubt as more PvE skills and heroes become unlocked it will only get easier.

The only things that should give any player even slight pause is the solo stuff, because then they cannot bring overpowered heroes, and have to think of a bar to take on stuff alone. Was fun watching everyone cry because they could not beat griffin or the fighting arena and wanting both to be made even easier. OK......so if it was only the a preview and only the first area we see...whats to say crap doesn't get harder as you move along in the game....do you have some magical power that let you see something everyone else didn't?


While I do agree with you that what we have seen so far is not overly difficult especially for a well seasoned player who actually played the game as was intended and not ran through or power leveled through each campaign. I'll say what have said it since preview weekend (theres a reason why its in bold text, guess why). Wait until Friday to see the games full content, play the game a few days get to the areas farther in the game get to the more difficult dungeons and then complain if crap is still to easy.
