Make it impossible!!!

This game needs a good challenge...

The last even remotely challenging thing was the Yoda challenge pre nerf... and as frustrating as that was it still could have been tougher

Make people cry...

I say bring it on

Challenge? Lol. What challenge? Having 50 people buy out their rosters then throw them into a meat grinder? What challenge are you referring to?

Yeah well that's one way to do it...

Boring... but still

Honestly for the amount of money is costs to accomplish something like that then hey why not?

They paid the price (literally) for being the top dogs... It should carry some weight if you make that investment (again literally) into the game.

Don't get me wrong... I've spent an absurd amount of money on this game and could easily classify as one of "those people" but still I am pleased that so far this raid is an actual challenge and will a actally take some thought and experimentation to do well

It's all about teamwork and having everyone active. There r 4 phases. 100% x 4 = 400%.

400% divided by 50 players = 8%.

Each player, using however many teams they can field, needs to do 8% damage total (average) stretched over all 4 phases or all in 1 phase. 5% is simple to get w/ 1 team so...if each player has 2 decent, modded teams...u should clear the raid np.

If your guild doesn't have players who each have at least 2x lvl 80 7* teams after all this time, they really have no business thinking they have a right to reap the benefits of the newest raid at the highest level.

Plz stop whining and start thinking.

FYI, my Rancor team Teebo (L), EE, ES, QGJ, 5's did 5% on phase 1 Heroic AAT.

Congrats who the heck is ee and es???? Forgive the people that aren't in the fold haha

Ewok Scout and Ewok Elder

please? At the rate we're going it's going to take 40 days for us to complete normal mode. Even if it's a quarter of the amount heroic receives we should get at least a couple of kenobi shards for it.

Also, why isn't there lower tiers? I'm genuinely curious. Would it have taken too much time to add and therefore delayed the raid for much longer?

I don't understand why people are surprised at this. Did you read any of the details before you raided? It sounded way harder, not to mention it involves completely different strategies than the other raid. Give it time. We'll figure out the strategy for this one and then you can go back to complaining how easy it is..

at 85 it will be easier

But after getting world first att today
It is hard period

Yeah people forget most of us are 82.. by 85 everyone will be eating this thing and laughing.
(BTW.. Ugnaught is a GOD, I never thought I would say it andI mean that) :o

What does 85 do over 81/82? Add about forty skill points? The gearing up will help though, which will take time. I like the challenge.

Agree, will hurt guilds. Top players will drop former guilds to form whale guilds and will end up with haves and have nots.

Exactly yes, I mean, the pit is a cake walk yet I remember not so long ago spending an entire week with my guild downing tier 6.
Give it some time, enjoy the ride, keep building your roster and let's see after Christmas how it is going.

It's a game, play it. If you don’t like playing it, fine tuning 5 men team builds, mode sets, etc... Then I don't know. It was a sim fest before, even the heroic rancor can be downed on full auto. This raid is refreshing.

I remember rancor tier five being difficult all those months ago, so I'm not surprised the new raid is as well. I'm fine with tier 6 (normal) being difficult. My issue, a completely baffling one is what made you omit tiers 1-5 ?

What were you thinking? Did you not realize you basically eliminate a good chunk of players, not to mention losing a lot of potential new players? I've spent my fair share of cash on the game, not proud of that after mods came out obviously too soon and not tested, now I'm just ashamed. Thousands of dollars wasted, literally flushed down the toilet.

Once again, poorly thought out half ashed update that I expect will get patched soon to add tiers one to five. Simple fix that should never have been taken out.

Things like this make me facepalm, and wonder if you even test these patches before you throw them out.

My guild opened the raid just an hour after launch and we haven't even done 10% damage to grievous yet on normal mode. It's gonna take some time to figure out who the metas are for this raid and how to work them. Grievous shreds through our toons so easy though. It's more common for toons to get defeated now before getting a hit in. I haven't even had escape available once yet in this raid. Then again, I've had bad luck with gear drops. The rest of my guild has gear lvl 9 and 10 toons, I'm sitting with 16 lvl 80 7* toons and Haven't gotten any toon past gear lvl 8.

Yeah if I could have started this raid on t4 or 5 then it would have helped my guild build strategy instead of just getting slaughtered while trying to figure out how it works
But they won't put shards in anything but the last tier... that's how they do the pit, why would this one be different

Hey look it's the wambulance.
