    Default Is anyone else falling asleep in the new elite dungeon

    Yeah it's new, sure the drops are nice, yes it's a challenge compared to AO3.

    But it's really repetitive and I had to catch myself from falling asleep my 2nd run through

    Yeah, it is incredibly boring, lol.

    It could just be because it's challenging, and tons of kills per stage.

    I dont think its considered elite since you can use potions....

    Hell yes, was bored after the first couple rounds and started getting grumpy. I just wanted to finish up.

    And I was in middle of a Dexter marathon, since showtime is free this weekend. Now I missed out on it over this long and boring map. I just want to trade my Dex armor for rift and be done with it.

    It's just too repetitive the map. Especially since we've seen all these enemies already before. Now they're just blackened out.

    I was hoping for some interesing new aliens and some bosses that require strategy, like Gurg.

    You guys wouldn't listen to me.. Me, Lone, Magicalx, Readtitle and some other guy cleared all 5 maps in lightning speeds when we all elixir'd up. I wanted to die when I ran with you guys. Longest and most boring dungeon run yet :P. It was like a adrenaline rush going through the map really fast with elixirs.

    IMO, if the game requires elixirs, something's off balance.

    Was expecting more. I woke up at 7 just to try it. Good fun but if this was weeks worth of work, then I'd have to say I'm disappointed. Didn't even take me more than 100k worth of pots/elixirs and I'm bored already, knowing I just want sets for all characters.

    UNLESS, there's some rare gear that nobody has even come across yet!

    doesn't require it, but the dungeon was a lot funner with elixirs. We got through mobs really fast then got to enjoy bosses actually.. Something just not fun about spending 4 hours clearing junk mobs.

    Even if there is rare gear worth 8 million a piece, the map is not FUN. and this is a game. It's supposed to be FUN.

    Seriously, the old ao3 was the most interesting thing this game ever got. Gurg is still my favorite boss bc he requires a strategy. I want more like that. Slapping a bunch of copies of enemies with higher Hp and damage does not make an interesting map.

    I kinda dislike ao3 tbh.... Ao2 sucked too, all it was a bunch of lesser D'Jinn's every 5 steps you take in the dungeon.
    Ao1 is my favorite, I remember running that legitelly at level 30 with a bunch of other level 30's. You don't just stare at hp, potions, and spells the entire time.

    That's my point. It needs to be fun, and challenging. Shouldn't just take long to get through. They took the one thing about DD that I hate and stuffed it into PL.

    Thats why I kinda like the nerf better. Before the nerf, all you did was stare at your spells, hp and potions. Its still even like like now. Thats also why I always farm noob maps. I like to not stare at one thing that only turns greyish while it cools down for 3 hours at a time...

    I predict something's going to change to account for all the new gear being worth less than the regular stuff in less than one night.

    Honestly, though, I don't care anymore. I think it might be time for me to move on if this is what they give us after all that hype.

    Watch the following happen overnight:

    1.) Devs admit that the rate of pink drops were an accident
    2.) Devs admit that pot use in elite dungeon was an accident

    The pot use was definitley not an accident! Did you see how hard that mother of a witch hits! She crits me for 800 while wearing decked out void!
