I really hope we won't see more of these events in the next expansion, scaling is terrible, Blizzard just can't balance it for !@#$.
This looks fun! I can't wait to give them a shot later this fall.
I like that they aren't designing events to be like Researchers Under Fire - that is the absolute worst way to design world content. My decently geared tank can die trying to tackle a group of those elite mobs and trying to complete tasks is impossible without a lot of help. Even next expansion coming back to this will be impossible to get 12/12 because you have too little time to do too many grab supply tasks. And if you don't get enough done in time, you don't get any reward.I think the time rift event has the best design so far - it goes at a fast pace with multiple non-rare spawns everywhere you can solo and relatively simple tasks to work on that you can actually complete by yourself for the most part. Also, the rift boss spawns at the end no matter how few things you got done before hand. And there's nothing exclusive to the 7500 bag, so even if nobody is there to help you can still complete the event and progress on fragments, rep, loot.I like these events for a fast means of getting gear and tier tmog looks. They've been helpful for my friends who want to switch to another character for raid and can get quickly geared up to be 'good enough' to take into raids using these. I think next patch will be even better since you'll be able to upgrade your crests once you're done with the lower ones. Are they exciting enough? Not always. I think the latest Dreamsurge is sucky because you have to wait for spawns, unlike the time rift which was constantly go go go. Hopefully the blooms will be more solable go go go and less forced grouping rares that kick your tank's butt.
Way too much world events and not enough players doing them aside for the last in date. Gotta balance that for the next Xpac.
Damn, we really needed Chris Metzen back. "Superbloom"..... They totally stopped trying.
I think systems which requires a lots of people to finish after it's no longer current content are bad.They are great for leveling alts, when they are current content, but passed that they are useless.
Events should scale so people can do them them in the future. They all seem so lazy.
Hate hate hate outdoor world content because most people either wont do it or they will stop doing it after a few weeks, so it becomes hard to find enough people during night or early morning hours, which is when I play most of the time. It's even worse that this will take around 30 minutes to complete. Dreamsurges and Time Rifts are done in less than 15 minutes.
Sigh this sounds so incredibly boring and I normally love little side things like this but really enough is enough☹️ just give us a nice story and just wrap up as some loose ends we dont need all these timed events. It's good for about a week and then everyone just goes and does something else . I mean do people still do the elemental storms anymore? Seems like it's just going to be that with new scenery. I m looking forward to seeing the zone, hopefully finishing the Nelfs story and having some new reps to go after. But that's it really.
cool.
