The whole gameplay of Arcane Legends (and all Legends game) is centered around short playtimes. Make elites longer and I predict some issues in retaining player base.
I'm not playing AL to have the same experience as a WoW raid with worth chance at loot. I'm playing because it's a fun way to pass time when i'm commuting or have some free time here and there.
Make running elites a 2hour ordeal and i'm out as I cannot acquire decent gear, everything that comes out of Crates is worthless junk and i'm not rich enough to buy off the CS.
You are building casual MMOs on mobile platforms, not AAA PC titles, why would you want to switch the gameplay to hardcore halfway through ?

I agree completely, its all well and good for all you hardcore AL players but mobile games are casual games and the player base is bound to drop off.
Great work STS but it needs to be turned down a notch before people give up.
Nobody is making you do long elite runs. You don't have to do the last elite map if you dont like it. It's there to be a challenge for players, who are really up for it.
Jarl you can run easily in 2-3 minutes, same goes for Reef when you're farming it. So you can still get elite items, without having to play for hours and hours.
Yes, if you wanna beat the last map, you'll have to take your time, but if you're just a casual player, you can still enjoy quick elite runs
Reef elite is bugged, they will fix and make the times much longer. Boss isn't meant to be there until you kill most of the mob.

Oh, awesome news..
Where'd you see that though?
If they really do, i'll loose interest in playing.
agreed
Don't waste my time, don't waste yours
deff agreed
Don't waste my time, don't waste yours
Elite does not need to be easier! This game needs some sort of challenge to it!

It is challenging enough, just needs to be shorter to lower the chance of people teleporting out due to lag, disconnects or having to deal to real life. Any less then four for a party makes every one quit and completely ruins the run.

Yeah so the maxed players will become even more filthy rich lol.
Its just not do-able for the average player with a random group.
so youd rather spen 30mins -1hr on a boss that will give greens or a chest full of junk?Yeah so the maxed players will become even more filthy rich lol.

100% spot on. Chest gambling is an awful return on the investment. There is a big reason people run Jarl still...because it takes 3m not 120. I can't sit on the toilet that long...

From our perspective we need to keep in mind there are multiple player types out there. Is this a casual MMO? Overall I would say yes. Are their hardcore players of our casual MMO? Absolutely. It's a delicate thing to keep balanced, as we care about all of our players.
I don't imagine it being much longer than a week or two before something happens regarding elites, what that is is yet to be determined however.
As for the Reefs boss, this is a bug that will be fixed in the next update.
Great..
The funniest thing is when before update,people keep asking the devs team to make the elite harder.Some even say they can clear the whole elite map in 2 hours.They hear us and make it happen.Now,some or almost all saying the elite is too hard to do.The case seems abit confusing now.
so most of you want the econmy to be like when cap was 21? pinks need to be rare or what is the point of a mmo? do you not want millions of gold? to buy your mythic? i dont get you all.
all STS needs to do is raise threat output for warriors so you dont need to waste so much on pots, things would just go along so much smoother this way..
edit:: lol i farmed two months for one of STS most precious items and i got it, i will use plat here and here to open locked crates, sooner or later ill have hammerjaw, or when i farm and recieve elite golden chest for a month ill have mythic..
its how its supposed to be.

Actually the economy would be better off if the re-balanced gold and item selling prices to be more inline with the huge inflated amount of gold you can buy from platinum. Otherwise cut the plat:gold ratio in half, but I think it is too late for that because of the large amounts of gold some people do have. Other MMOs are more balanced when it comes to gold vendor prices and auction price levels.
Maybe A Little More Easier?
Defiantly keep the difficulty ( mobs maybe a little easier ) but defiantly make the runs worth while with actually good drops, we don't want to do these runs just to be rewarded with crappy gear.
Read it, and wait for the update.
