12 days and counting

12 days ago Meathead made his post about the raid difficulty in the “lower tiers” was being investigated. 

two weeks later we’ve received absolutely nothing. 
(they made sure to patch the B1 glitch asap though)

knowing they have plenty of data. All they have to do is play T0 with a G12 squad and see that they can’t even put up 20k.

 

  • No, they are just waiting for players to stop relicing chars, as long as people push for relics, they are making money from panic farms. The balance can be tweaked very easily, the problematic issues are, the loop of droidekas with the commander droid spamming dispel and heal and bonus turns, bonus turns, bonus turns and more bonus turns. I spend 80% of the raid, watching what droids are doing, it is boring as hell. 

    THis is the laziest game design I have ever seen. The higher relic tiers are EASIER. They are practically pushing people to relic chars. That is it. That is why you have those lazy invul commander spamming heal and dispel mechanics. Either make the commander targetable and keep those spams ( maybe global cd), or make it so once the fighter pilot phase comes, you can disable the whole skill for the rest of the battle as you blow up the part where the commander gets this insane ability.

    Of course they did because B1 makes it easier for players to complete whatever tier they can.  Again they prove their priority is to fix any bug that benefits players FIRST, over bugs that hinder players.  (PvP bugs like in datacrons aren't the same though as they don't care if we win against each other as much, as if we win in PvE being easier.)

    Well, it took them 2 months to fix defense of dathomir and then they only ran it once, so we're still missing 4 zeta mats.

    It's taken them what, 4 months or so to not even care about the screw up with the beginner quests and how some people arbitrarily got 20k in shard shop currency and some got bugged unbeatable quests.

    So given that them rebalancing the raid would benefit players, I'd say we can expect to wait a minimum of several months, and potentially not even expect them to fix anything. In fact, if they do change something, it's more likely to be a "fix" that just screws something else up because they're not good at their jobs.

      Defense of Dathomir is running 3 more times this month. Check the events calendar

      Clearly you don't pay attention enough to details to know it's running once a week for August. It even had its own announcement IIRC.

    I mean it took them, what, 3-4 weeks to say something about how B2 was performing? Things like this don't float to the top of the priority list.

    did they actually patch the B1 glitch? last I saw they were only looking into it.

    also while I understand the annoyance of how long its taking them to nerf the lower tiers, I imagine they are also trying to make sure its "balanced" whatever that means.  honestly I still think this raid shouldn't have came out as soon as it did and had longer to be balanced and tested.
