That whisp thing is a mechanic from the Source Wall raid. I'm kinda surprised they're recycling that mechanic already, since the episode's still fresh. Maybe not a good choice.
I tend to like simple and easy content on occassion. We have seen time and time again when they just go way too overboard on the difficulty to where it just isn't fun. Namely Cyborg in the Teen Titans alert from several episodes ago. His drones are bad enough. But he straight up just does elite raid boss damage which make it next to impossible without a tank and healer. A good tank and i mean a DANG good tank can handle it completely solo sure. But it makes roleless buffs completely worthless That said i DO want a challenge. Just not an unbalanced one. Personally i like Deadmans furnature phase and just think making that a health based attack would help plenty. Etrigan yeah. From seeing that. He needs maybe a few tweaks. That said. I HATE loadout swap mechanics. It really makes pet players lives just that bit more tedious. Shazam in the first JLD episode being a big example of just an annoying boss fight that is not too hard. But is sooooo monotonous. My favorite alert will probably always be a tie between Arkham Asylum and Smallville. Good mechanics that aren't too intrusive. A great environment and a decent length. But not overly long for what they are IF you know what you're doing. Arkham does admittedly kinda cross the line a little with too many adds. But again. If it is a good group. It still goes by at a good pace. I really miss HOH cause the Cerberus mechanic was awesome and fun. So far tho. Aside from a few things like the raids second boss over relying on that one mechanic a bit too much. I'm looking forward to this episode a lot. STTS was fun and SOBA had it's ups and...Pride.. Seriously..worst world boss ever possibly. But this episode just fits my likes so well thus far and i cannot wait to get in and have some fun when it goes live. I DO hope they take some of your criticizms to heart. But that they don't overdue it and make any of these instances less fun overall. Heck. If they hired me as a boss designer. I'd be making loads of fights with diverse mechanics that add some real flare to it. Making it memorable.
Don't say that. Cuz now the block will be double stronger and longer for the healer lol. So unless the healer pops a shield, soda, and is using HOT heals he'd be absolutely fuqqed. I hate how healers have such low survivability in dcuo. Sometimes their death is almost guaranteed
Most healers I run with do fine if as long as they are not weapon-healing. Feels like healers might need a tad of a buff or some art fiddling for survivability over max heals? I know I a guilty of over-focusing resto and heals out than my own healer toons survivability@@TheBmills415
I don’t mind stuff being simple. I don’t like things being full of mechs like you saying they should be. Mechs every second, Bc that’s just boring, having to roll every split second (figure of speech) and can’t do your job as a player Bc you’re spending every second doing mechs…..that is brain dead boring to me🤷♂️. Not saying things should be TOO easy but I feel like you’re saying things should be too mechy. At the end of the day ppl got lives outside of dc ain’t nobody tryna spend hours on sum that’s full of mechs just for the sake of difficulty
I don't want mechs that often but there should be a few mechs that have a heavy emphasis. So the mechs that are there should be meaningful. Like the wisp phase why have that just a simple roll and turn a cog? or have Etrigan's flame pool where its a tiny pool in a huge room that everyone can avoid. Overlapping mechs don't work well like SWE+ where it can come down to RNG. RNG mechanics aren't fair.
Darkness rising room was way bigger so if a tank couldn't lunge all the flamethrowers players could get themselves to safety. If it tracked he'll be easier through lunging or just plan cheap by burning while the tank is avoiding it. It's weird but this seems like it will only go from 1 extreme to another
Even regular stuff shouldn't be that easy. I mean, was anyone able to die in the Shock Alert if not by accident or carelessness from other group members? The most difficult part in MTCr is probably hacking the elevator's door. I'd do elite, but I don't want to queue that nor I have patience to form a group 😅
@@NorthernfireArt I stopped running shock elite content. It was pointless. Bounties gave elite gear and the alert was a joke. GPE and RTE3E are both fun asl
It's much easier with a good troll though. Also, the tanks are so bad on this game that the majority of the pug group tanks can't even make it past etrigan. 😅 It's group specific obviously but I troll this all the time and it's a blast.
It's only fire tanks from what I've heard. You can't solo this as an ice tank cause the bosses and adds still hit hard. Fire heals with absorb heat is just strong enough to heal thru it
@@Tegawe You can do this as ice, it's group specific though. I did with an ice tank and 2 DPS as a troll, but my build is group shield based ( I can basically spam quantum's supercharge shield) lol
Thank you so much. Getting ready for that new episode

Swamp Thing needs group rooting and pulls and maybe even a throw effect to make use of that large room

MCTE was laughable. Only weaker tanks needed a healer
@@TheBmills415 I healer tank elite for that with zero glitches, The alert is far too boring with the diff as it is

Maybe for the woll o whisp, Green is DoT, Red is damage defuff, Blue no power return
I'ma need that quantum load out since I'm coming back to DC but I'll be on the dead ass server of Xbox 😢😢😢😢
is this a whole different server?
and i was wondering if you could help me with a gadgets build. what artifacts should i be maining.
Dear Devs, stop making Elite easy. If people want easy, run normal.
👏👏👏
Pisses me of u dont need a troll or heal anymore to run elite content
