"elite" dungeon

**Elyseon** · 07-19-2012, 07:49 PM

first i would like to say great work on the gear!
but seriously? a dungeon with no potions, but elixirs are allowed? you give an added advantage to people who use elixirs? you take away potions from people, hoping that after a tank gets killed in two hits in about 2 seconds, that people will dish out plat in order to have a chance at killing the boss. i joined one team with 3 elixired members, they were kind enough to not boot me and my inferiour self, the boss died in about a minute. Then in an unelixed team after every member had died and after 7 minutes of fighting the boss, everyone started leaving. i think your just gonna see another 2011 winterfest problem atleast from me. and yes im a plat buying customer so i buy elixirs plenty of the time, ive spent over 26k plat so i know youre a business, please dont pull that line again, your getting plenty of plat spent by those now rushing to 71 to get a chance at this "elite" dungeon. Im sorry if this isnt what you intended but i dont see any way how you could have overlooked this. even before the dungeon was released, several people agreed that it would be awesome without elixirs, then you go and encourage people to buy plat or fail.

I was ok with your "premium" boss bashes in the past; i understood you would give plat spenders an adavntage, but in those cases, you allowed a way for non plat spenders to have access to the same opportunities. now instead you simply encourage people to buy elixirs or get out for the "elite" gear, yes i realise not everyone will be considered elite enough to kill the boss, when i see no particular stragegy buffed up on 4x steroids, that does NOT tell me "elite". this was already brought up with the "elite" caps, which i did indeed elixir to 3 of the 4, but unelixed people were still able to reach the goal, its not like you gave half xp if u had no elixir and cut off their potions. i know your a business and ive definately funded you, but really this track just keeps rising up. i had already been growing somewhat bored and started playing some other games this cap. but then i heard about this new thing, which really encouraged me. but then i saw this. I hate to say, but my next disappointment, maybe be a farewell to the game i was addicted to for so long

i really hope something gets changed

Yeah I totally agree with this too, an 'elite' dungeon should reward skill and persistence.

**Rauekat** · 07-19-2012, 08:14 PM

Making the elite dungeon is discriminating against the noobs! jk :P

Well, it's like those of us who had to grind for the elite vanities...why only us get the helm?

But seriously if someone, say a lvl 68 was to go in there...it's almost promised a insta-death

**Swimmingstar** · 07-19-2012, 08:36 PM

Yeah, they would make more money if the faces were available to all. And maybe more money if they made the new "elite" campaign available for 70-71

Elite campaign............... available for everyone................ not so elite anymore.

**Swimmingstar** · 07-19-2012, 08:41 PM

It doesn't take 2 seconds to get to 70.

It doesn't take 20 seconds to get to 71 so there you go.

I would love for it to be accessible by all, but that would definitely ruin the point of it.

**Swimmingstar** · 07-19-2012, 08:47 PM

Not everyone is level 70. I'm not even level 70 yet.

Hard work and dedication will get you there (if you believe in that bs)
The elixir store is mid way on the HUD

**Whirlzap** · 07-19-2012, 10:46 PM

Lolwut.
They removed Potions?
What?

.......
You kidding? What about boss fight?
So for mage, no shield = dead
Yes shield = all mana gone within seconds = useless.

Yet we have steroids.
What is this the black market dungeon?

**Elyseon** · 07-19-2012, 11:23 PM

seems that way to me and the only way to get to run around carrying a shark

**Bunnyshoota** · 07-20-2012, 12:23 AM

I totally agree. Elite dungeon parties' success should be based on teamwork and skill, not the amount of plat you have to spend.

**Cruis** · 07-20-2012, 12:25 AM

What if we don't have a bottomless put of money to spend on here? What're us 71's with no elixirs to do?

**Ortalan** · 07-20-2012, 12:52 AM

Dungeon? Lulz... It's not even a dungeon - just a boss room.... very weak, imo.

This map seems like its virtually impossible to do without elixirs. The boss one shots the tank so at minimum the 3x tanker ale is necessary, which requires plat.

I think this is the perfect opportunity to adjust this map so that it is still difficult, but can be doing using the aid of the gold elxiris (tankers, trash, etc). PL needs a good gold sink and this could be that.
