What luck set? Man its impossible with 5 people, on low pop server need wait full day to kill them and loot chest, because online not more then 300. And after that you will get only bunch of green weapons, 0 armor at all, how its playable? AGS make that, receive a feedbacks as review’s on steam.

I’m a pure healer (for now), and I know even on high pop servers, there aren’t many of us left.
On the low pop server (yesterday I moved to high pop), we tried to 10 man (2 group) Myrkgard. 2 healers, 2 tanks. We couldn’t beat the first flaming sword boss, he just deleted us. Tanks would drop very fast, and he’d one shot me. Previously I had enough aoe heals and burst heal to keep a tank up even after their block broke, but now I don’t. The AoE’s run out and I have a delay before I can cast again (even with every CDR thing I can get), and my burst heal is much weaker as I need to combo it with my AoE’s to trigger larger heals off multiple buffs.
Healing is much less rewarding now if I can’t keep one tank alive, even when I’m trying my hardest. I can see why people are swapping out, and I’ve started thinking about it myself to.

We were PvP flagged - I had forgotten you get a buff for that now too. Even more ridiculous that it was so difficult!
Greetings Devs that won’t read this post.
My name is Negligent One from the Server Aeaea. I am a 580 GS Tank. I have successfully tanked everything this game has thrown at me using a Tower Shield. My Watermark is among the top 1% and I have more hours tanking in this game than I wish to admit to.
Myrkgard Commanders have always been the biggest challenge. Their attack combos range from 3-5 strikes and their animations can be difficult to tell which combo they will use. These are by far my favorite mobs to tank against. Prior to the last patch, it was a conscious decision as a tank to decide which attack(s) in that combo i needed to block and which I needed to take. The attack damage/Stamina drain inflicted by their attacks in the current patch is over-tuned.
Currently, with my well equipped set up - I can successfully block 2 of their attacks, a third will always break the shield. Which would be fine if the amount of attacks in their combo was limited to 3 or 4. However in the current state, it is impossible to tank these.
In regards to the common 5 part combos: Either A) I block 3 and eat 2 and my stam bar is broken which causes me to die with the next set of attacks. Or B - I block 2, pray that it’s not a 5 part attack and block the Overhead attack #4, which breaks my stam bar and again I die to the next Combination. Even with 2 healers spec’d into Stamina regeneration (idk the perk), and my tank build with Invigorating Bullwark, there simply isn’t enough Stamina.
Along with the rest of the people in this thread I will grumble about the amount of Health boosted, but as an objective player and achievement chaser - My only objection is specifically to the amount of damage done by these. Their dashes and attacks have always been lethal to non tanks.
Please consider rebalancing their Attack only - the the exact middle between what it was pre patch, and what it now is post patch. This position should kill all inexperienced tanks and provide them an opportunity to learn while the well geared and experienced tanks are still challenged (now at a greater level) to make careful decisions that will cost the lives of their entire group.
Thank you

You guys really like to ruin the experience for everyone.
Who the fuck thought all elites deserved a 200% buff? NO ONE. Portals says recommended 5 players, you need atleast 10+ people to do it. If this game can’t create bigger groups than 5 players, why the fuck are you making shit harder for 5 player groups? What is the point then? Why do you want to waste everyones time that didn’t play 14 hours a day and exploit and get do all the good stuff like when portals was broken and you could keep looting.
Everyone who was first up, got to WM and their crafting so fast up. But hey lets destroy it for the rest of the people.
You guys are morons and you don’t listen. No wonder over 78% of your player base have quit this game, and more quits every day because of your bullshit stuff.

Same in my server(Nilfheim) Myrkgard farming not worth now while repair price is too way expensive. We was there like 2 party ppl and another 20 ppl also came later. More then half of ppl dead. And they only was there for chest. Farming Mykgard now is dead and server population going to down. There is one we can farm watermark now its Reekwater. And you cant farm anymore Reekwater 1 party.
They did really huge mistakes gear cap is week compare to this elite area buff.
I hope They revert this elite area buffs!
Wow. Mobs are supper hard now. Also with the population decreasing it’s even harder to find a full group to kill the dam mobs. As for 30% increase on drops for pvp flagged…well it’s nice but not fair for pve players. There should be pvp servers for that imo.

They’re running the studio by numbers but numbers can’t tell you why kicking a ball is fun. They can tell ‘what’ people like sure.
I wonder how long until we finally get a statement reverting everything comes? When the most important number of all, player numbers go down?

I liked the buff, i hated three mindless run it was before
Reekwater and Mine became harder, but its still fairly easy. Problem is Myrk and LvL65 Portals. Way too hard for 5 - 10 People. And I don’t want to search everytime for really good players for some portals/myrk.
The problem here is The Luck doesn’t incrase your Watermark. Only the Chances if its a Common or Epic drop. So its kinda useless to farm Watermark with it, before you didn’t reach the end of wm.
Here hoping with the next maintenance they’ll fix the elite zones and the chests again…

Trevor has since left AGS.
He didn’t. He’s still around. @KoiaKoia his last post was 20 hours ago. He’s got a lot to do, he’s like their best community manager.
No one is logging in ags.
man what a shitshow lol
It scales based off people in combat within the immediate vicinity. We tested it the other night. While some are overtuned (Commanders) most of the content is very easily doable.
Also, with a name like that, I’ll relax on the fact you called me ignorant or lacking basic common sense. Sadly, common sense is pretty dumb, and I’m glad I don’t have common.
Will be still hard to forbid ppl to go to the OPEN WORLD-Elitezones looking if there are anyone also on hunt? ^^
