Is it just me or did they mess with the difficulty levels of the game? Heroic is nowhere near as difficult now as it was before TU10. The new Heroic feels way too easy for a "Heroic" mission now. I played 3 different Heroic missions yesterday with random players and we cleared all 3 without breaking a sweat and in just a few minutes. This is unusual. I wonder if this was deliberate or if they messed up again?
They moved all the elites to challenging.Originally Posted by NLxAROSA Go to original post
One thing I noticed is now, any time you do an open world event you get 3 extra packs of spawns to walk up behind you.
PLayed with my dad for several hours on open world DC, did a couple T3 CPs, some Territory controls, a few other things and just random encounters throughout the city, and 100% of the time, we would be fighting and suddenly, here comes this pack of guys behind us.......and another pack in front of us, and another pack behind us cuz why not........oh and just when you were thinking they would run out of random BS, nope, here comes another pack.
We did the territory control by MLK library CP and ill be damned if 4 extra groups didnt attack us....turned a 5 minute engagement into a 20 minute **** fest.
It crazy that you think its easier and here I am and a number of others saying heroic has gotten way harder because something changed in NPC behavior/DMG output.
What the hell is going on? I play this game alot, For me something has changed and the game solo is way harder especially when I encounter Black Tusk.
I play solo 95% of the time and I've I only been playing the on the heroic difficulty difficulty most of the time. I really don't find the difficulty any harder, some encounters I actually find even easier in TU10 whether I'm using a red DPS build, skill DPS build or status affect builds.
I'm running around the heroic open world or doing missions with a 726k armour glass cannon skill DPS build based around the assault turret and drone and it's very rare that I even go down even when I get sniped, and I'm not just sitting behind cover doing nothing as I constantly have my head out shooting things as well.
Erratic difficulty behavior was a thing before TU10 and it wasn't announced to be addressed in the patch notes, so I'm not surprised that different peeps see different behavior at different times. I'm totally expecting me to get my arse handed to me sometime later this week.Originally Posted by AOD_Rammi Go to original post
Difficulty bug is probably still here.
