All this over a dying a few times.  Imagine the tears if they added a new difficulty and it wasnt just enemies do more damage and have more health.

On a positive note, BioWare finally found an enemy I hate even worse than Geth Prime. 

 

No, no, no...let´s just not say anything rushed. Let´s just sit down and clear our heads. And remember Geth Prime. And his turret. And his drone. And his siege p....oh ffs!

I cannot speak for others, but as for myself, no, it is not over dying (which only happened once to me today).

 

I'm annoyed by feeling as if I am constantly knocked on my back and unable to do anything thanks to the Despair Demon ice mines. It's doubly annoying when it happens through a wall while you are trying to attack other enemies.

 

Normally, it doesn't bother me much when it's limited to the Demons faction and that only comes up every so often. Right now, it's guaranteed constantly every wave.

 

So, the annoyance factor over "stunlock" got a little bit old for me today. That's the extent of my whine. I don't really care about dying. I just dislike having control of my character taken away constantly when I'd rather be playing.

Well, at least we have had a good break from the RTC this weekend.  

 

Kinda miss him?

Is it any suprise? I dont think anyone at BioWare plays this game above routine. They have never played anything other than routine in their streams. Time to find another MP to play, friends. It's way overdue.

Who said it was anything about dying a few times?

I guess its just a matter of adapting your play style.  They always spawn in the same spot and can be killed quickly ie. Zerging gong room on fereldan 3.  

 

They can be reaaally annoying if ignored though thats for sure.  The worst is when one knocks you down while his buddy laser beams you.  Team combo 4tl.

This being the key thing, no line of sight and it's difficult to avoid it with combat roll or evade  - without a dodge there is very little you can do and that's the frustrating element about it. Personally I think Despair demons are even more cheap than primes (And I really hate the geth)

Uh...

...no!

Tears...of joy? That's EXACTLY what they need to do, is add a new difficulty where it isn't just the same thing, only enemies have more health and do more damage. How boring would that be. That's what always turned me away from "Hard Mode" encounters in a lot of MMOs. Sometimes they were completely different and interesting, but most the time it was "Look! Now everything one shots you and takes a year to kill! So fun guys!". Yea, no.

Yes, and he came with flying shoeboxes that tossed bombs out and his friendly neighborhood firestarter. You however were able to use the terrain to limit his effectiveness to a degree. The Desire Demon just says "I cast through this wall and then dance like a ballerina when you try to chase me", if the Geth Prime had more mobility or just eliminated cover entirely, I may hate him more.

Geth Prime needed the movement speed of the Red Templar Shadow, imo.

[Catastrophy]

Well, I tried to level my recently promoted chars and try out the Avvar - it was a pita on routine. I searched public, then, but that didn't really help. It went A LOT better when I had all my abilities specced and moved on to threatening - I guess routine / new players really had a bad time. I noticed a lot of problems with the fire demons - people just hadn't enough kill speed and their numbers piled on and on in the last wave.

 

There is also a very striking leap in difficulty in routine between the normal sections and the last wave. The most decent team I was in cut through the normal sections like butter but always wiped in the last wave. That was also true when soloing - I had no problems until I hit the last wave.

 

I'm all for decent challenge, but keep some reasonable difficulty for starters and level 1 characters. Not everybody play this 24/7.

Right - where was the templar faction? No saw none of them.

Mage mine - dragon electric fizzle - instakill. You'd think there'd be enough time for getting up and evading a dragon attack - they ususally take time to travel, but no.

I sure do love being stunlocked so badly on wave 4 that i cant even cast a barrier on myself till i die from full health and then guardian spirit. Really fun stuff.

Me to! Its even more fun when you try to revive a friend, lose all you elusive with one attack and get flipped around like a pancake by despair demons on the kther side of the map. only to get up with 6 rage demons surrounding you - so much fun

Bring Avvar with Lady's Wrath instead, at least it's more amusing. Had a game where I died from stunlock, then got revived by LW, then stunned again, died again, revived again, died again, got revived again. The game was playing itself!

[Thiak]

well, i played my templar a lot this weekend, easy to carry a game with her this way ;-)

[sabreracer]

If this is a prelude to how the new difficulty is going to be.  Then it's going to be a big F**K YOU and NOPE 

 

Back to the old stunlock principle which I hate with a passion.  I found the Perilous Dragon fight to be far easier than Threatening Wave 5.  

 

Being constantly knocked on my arse while multitudes of fast moving units swarm me is so fun

[Beerfish]

Got sick of the Venatori.  On the good side, no assassins and seemingly fewer archers.  On the bad side, endless stream of rage demons and despair demons and the boosted vent commander is not easy to take down.  (Does her barrier decay at all over time?  Or is she a cheater?)

 

Also one other bone to pick with the Despair demons, not sure if others have this problem, my smaller characters such as the alchemist can't reach up to hit her while she is face freezing.  Poor Luka is up on her tippytoes jumping up trying to dagger the hag and I can't reach!

I have this same problem with despair demons, i'm pretty sure you're on XB1 though as well right? Think you've played with my friend Proto on here?

 

I hate those venatory mages the most, the amount of times their DOT lightning spell would one shot me even though I was nowhere near them was just insane, how the f*ck do you stop it?

[redtwotwo]

I find it interesting that the first thought for me was: "go play by myself and get all the kills." This is a multiplayer game and they give you a challenge that has a goal based solely on individual performance. When the challenges are like that, it takes the fun and purpose, really, out of multiplayer.

 

It was a good thought; change up the routine. But it washed when the end result was not due to teamwork.

 

I have not been playing as long as most of you and can not do perilous but any challenge that aspires teamwork is the only type of challenge I want.

We need to play some games

[capn233]

Eh, people clamor for mixed factions then complain.

 

Challenge did seem to be an odd collection of enemies though.
