Why are the quest bosses such pushovers? I've grown used to it by now but it's still a disappointment when the guy is called EVISCERATOR but drops faster than the regular mobs

>>
>>146961806
Not really, solo content in the game was never where they tried to add difficulty.
Taking down an elite mob or a group quest boss solo is what's really hard. Unless you just cheese out a melee boss as a spellslinger.

>Was it different back in release?

The hardest part about leveling at release was the random elite mobs spread throughout the zone. And they weren't bad unless you accidentally kited something else into them.

I miss the elite glow; however, as it made the T2 contract a lot more annoying to complete.
>>
>>146961806
Some quest mobs used to be elites in release as I remember, they were pretty fucking tough even for competent people, along with random elites like >>146962840 said, which were nearly impossible as anything but ranged.

Not to mention dungeons were much, much harder on release, now you can possibly survive some shit that would do more than three times your health in damage.
>>
>>146962840
>>146962979
Okay so there are harder mobs with 2 interrupt armor in all the questing zones I've been in, are these the same thing?

Some also have spikes around their portrait which I think just means they're unique.

I can kill these fine, but then there are a few rare 5-man bosses that I couldn't even put a dent in.
>>
>>146963568
Well back at launch the basic harder mobs were hard as fuck to solo, now you can by easily avoiding telegraphs.
>>
>>146963676
Alright, I get it. I'm pretty sure I can't do the 5-man ones as melee esper since they just slap my shit and I can't lifesteal back enough yet. I should switch to ranged and try to kite it forever.

I think it helps that you can be a healer while leveling like a dps.

at 50 the healer queues for 5 mans are usually longer than the DPS queues

in raids you only need 15% healers, which is an even smaller ratio than the 20% needed for five mans

I think a lot of healers end up switching to DPS since that is the only way they can get a spot in the group
>>
>>147009892
Yeah, I made my character as a healer originally but I should make the choice before I hit 50 and have to start getting geared

Switching to deeps is probably less responsibility as well which is cool since I'm Bad At Games

>>147010308
as a DPS you might have fewer responsibilities, but if you die early and don't interrupt the group still wipes

I wonder if this game will shut down soon.

http://steamcharts.com/app/376570#All Players are already to drop off and what was 4k avg players is now sub 2.5.

I wouldn't be surprised. It's like a single player slasher until 50 with no need to ever group or talk to anyone. By far the most antisocial MMO that I've played. At least in a slasher game like diablo 2 you had more than one weapon choice. Only being able to use a 2h sword as a warrior makes the game feel like it's a pre everquest game released in 2014. Like some mid 90's game.

Vet dungeons and raids are nice, but you have get through the shitty single player game first. If this were 1995 wildstar would be okay. In 2014 it looks and feels like it's been outdated for 10+ years

Peaks were at 3-3.3k over the weekend, retention's been pretty good.
>>
>>147012285
Yeah, I agree with the single player part. I see other people constantly while questing but there isn't ever any reason to group.

>>147012504
>every modern mmo is like this
I dunno. Wildstar feels like it discourages grouping while leveling, maybe because everyone moves at light speed, or because mobs are too easy and you don't need healing, and it doesn't help that all paths have different things to do or collect.

Someone tell me if this was different at release.

I played most of TERA and ToS with friends that I met ingame, but maybe that's just me.
>>
>>147012504

I guess I was hoping for mobs that were a challenge in the world that required grouping. That way maybe the bridge from recent 50 with a high enough ilvl to do vets doesn't hit a wall.

It just from a farmville difficulty level game to hard ( in a gimmicky, one trick pony, overuse of telegraphs),

Even a game like diablo 2 (released in 2000) and WoW (released in 2004 had different types of weapons) How can a game in 2014 actually take a huge step back from a game released 14 years earlier?

They made steps forward in difficulty, but that's it. They bored Tera and gw2's combat system and added telegraphs. did nothing new with crafting, borrowed dailies from WoW.

I know all games borrow from previous MMO's, but for the most part they feel like steps forward. Wildstar feels like it's taking steps back. borrowing and making things worse (crafting).

There are elites that finish quests faster and group quest bosses available, if you chose to skip over them that's fine but it doesn't mean the option isn't there.
>>
>>147012997
people didn't move as fast at release, elite mobs were a bigger deal, and while paths always had different things to do, it helped that there were a lot more people

>>147013117
wow's different weapon types change nothing about the game though

a sword vs a mace vs an axe vs a fist weapon is really just cosmetic

wildstar's crafting was originally really good. TOO good. to where crafted gear was way better than anything you could obtain outside of crafting until you got to the raid

idk... the combat in wildstar feels very responsive which is good. You say telegraphs are overused, but what mechanics would you like to see that aren't there? bosses where the offtank can literally go afk like wow?

you know how you sometimes get errors in the default UI?

imagine if you had to reload the UI every 30 minutes or the game would run out of memory and crash, things broke regularly, and there were a lot fewer features

When I trialed wildstar when it came out, I very nearly didn't buy it because my initial experience was so bad.

But I stuck with it for some reason. A lot of bugs got fixed, and I had lots of fun

Random chests? I'm not too sure what you mean.

If you mean the other bundles, then sometimes the stuff in them is sold individually, and other times the stuff is only found in the bundles.

If you mean the Fay thing, you're usually better off just looking in the market for the rewards there, although you CAN get omnibits as a consolation prize sometimes. Considering how that pack works, might be nice.

They do add to the game. Rogues for example get sword spec for an extra melee swing which is really nice for PvE. Daggers get crit nice for PvE dagger specs and PvP, Maces had a stun proc which was annoying but amazing for PvP.

Warriors had axe spec crit, sword extra swings, polearms, maces etc... They could dual wield for consistent damage for PvP, or 2h for bursty PvP. Add in racial ability that made a certain weapon desirable (but not manditory)


Not to mention it spiced things up. Warriors only using 2h swords would be so fucking boring. Not saying it should be WoW. It's just lame as shit is all.

Same with limited action sets. I get that you couldn't have everything without possibly being op, and it opens up some fun choices. Part of me thinks of so fucking boring and lame as well.

not only is that no longer true, but if you think about it, an extra swing isn't really different from a critical hit

I actually like the idea of LAS, but in practice that just means that you have 8 fully optimized abilities and the fun gets left behind
>>
is there a path or paths that are more valuable verse others?
>>
>>147023829

The extra was was op in vanilla though. hand of justice trinket for a free swing, horde shaman with windfury for free swing, thrash blade for free swing, iron foe for 2 swings. On a rogue with slice and dice up for extra attack speed, coupled with the fact that a free swing could proc any of the other free swings made it fun as well. Sometimes you would be this massive flurry or damage out of nowhere.

>>
>>147013475

I disagree. At least as an esper. group mobs were solo mobs with a little more health. I had go to a zone 7-10 levels higher and find a legendary champion mob to kite around to find a challenge .

Mobs that were labeled as 5 man mobs that dropped PAPs were almost always soloed, because you didn't need anyone else despite being 5 player elite mobs. People did that even in low ilvl 50 gear. It just got easier as power creep got stronger with higher ilvls.

Dungeons were fun and very difficult, but the world was a joke. Like Current WoW walk around like you're a god knocking things over joke. I wish the outside world was tougher,

But you hit "V" to vacuum loot after you kill something. It becomes reflexive after a short time and is essentially the same thing.

As for why it didn't succeed, it was promoted as a wow killer, the sci-fi isn't popular in mmorpgs and can't really think of ona that's successful and going strong. On the other hand, starting your game with a 40 people raids when you don't have the player base ... you're going to fail.

It's a free to play game, you shouldnt have to pay for anything, let alone to fucking demo something. Carbine even stated that everything would be completely free so you wouldnt have to pay for anything locked behind a paywall.
