Green dailies dungeon gone?

[Aoladari]

NCSoft, Please bring these dungeons back! This makes it impossible to do them at level.

This is the worst thing to have happened in the game.  I love playing alts, but now I cannot get past these unless I Assassin/Summoner.  alternatively I bed in chat for someone to help me out, get a 45+ nice guy to solo the content out of sight and I don't even have the fun on completing the dungeon as every things one hitted by the nice people who do help out.  Greens used to only attacked a few plays x-server anyway.  Removing this has seriously cramped my enjoyment of this game.  Sitting outside the ploghollows now, 40 mins and counting.....No one has even run past me.

yes it seems its time to go back yo the old fall back. last time i looked Blizzard didn't screw over they're payers. Diablo here i come.

I love how there's absolutely NO WORD from NCS on this. Players have been complaining about this retarded move to remove green dungeons for no reason for ages and NCS completely ignores all the posts. It's not even in the update notes. No reason has ever been given.

What does it tell you? NCS doesn't give a single shit about its players. And what encourages this behaviour? The people who still actually give this company their $ to support this behaviour. The only way to get shady companies like NCS to give a shit about players is to reinforce it with the only action they care about, i.e., stop giving them $.

u can always get help in faction chat or get the clan members to help. in my server we always get requests for help in the green dungeons and then the new players get the help they need (although i dont know about the opposing faction chat).usually the most requests are for the darkglimpse, bokgon hideout, sentinel ruins, and jukto's repose. although plague hollow and lakeside cache have very few requests there are lv50 players camping out in jadestone for the bamboo vs blackram pvp (which is kinda annoying) who often offer help.

 

also we try to carry lv20 players in blackram narrows during the daily challenge event to get the weapon or the bonus 600 hp

You must play on a nice server, on mine they'll laugh at you and call you a noob if you request help on an alt. They act like anyone new or undergeared is a waste of their time.

Wat server are you on? I am on Old Man Cho

[Orey]

Whose idea was this nonsense?? No Cross Server Dungeons for low level players?? for those who really need a party? what kind of idiot logic is this?! And i thought patches and upgrades are for improvements... not for making the game worse.

 

PS: Sorry for my bad English but, i must say that this logic/change is just pure stupidity...

This game is anything but alt (or newbie) -friendly. You can be social with the x-server party members too, sometimes they're even nicer than the ones in faction chat. 

 

Let's be honest, most people who are spamming the faction chat are usually the ones with legendary weaps who have zero alts and don't care about them, so they will just tell them to "reroll as summoner to solo", or "just stop playing in general because this game is dead anyway". On my server/faction the community who writes in faction chat is very, very toxic. They never help, never give advices, rude and spread fake info.

 

Joining a clan which recruits newbies isn't easy either, because most people don't have the patience to help and explain things to newbs. Or most clans recruit True breeze+ anyway.

 

I have no idea why NC does this. With the current updates they are going to slowly killing this game. They ruin it for newbies, make it hard for alts, instead they push out another and another endgame content instead and exp events to "rush to lvl 50", instead of caring about the inbetween levels and encouraging people to level alts.

 

On another note, what they made with gem hammers is ridiculous. New characters will only have 1 gem slot! Also, they increased the gem hammer requirement from 1 to 3 at the noobest Blight weapon. If it's 3 at a Blight, how many will I need later?! It was expensive enough at the time when I just needed one. Not even mentioning, that it was "only" 3 gold in the market at that time, which let's be honest, very, VERY hard to make for a new player who has no experience in money-making OR doesn't have premium. Now, gem hammers are ca. 6 gold ea, which means I need 18 gold to unlock my 4th weapon socket. 18 gold for a lvl 25 character. NC what the hell are you thinking?!

 

Ooooh yes I could F10 and buy the gem hammers for NCoins but y'know it would be pretty nice if they weren't pushing us to spend cash on a "free" game so much just because it's impossible to make that money ingame at that level. Especially those who don't have high level mains.

 

NC, I beg you, at least bring those damn green instances back to F8. If you ruin everything else for noobs/alts, at least don't take this away from us.

 

(Edit: Actually I know the solution. Just do those parties with any horde of bots NC fails to do something about. Yes, bots would be a more important issue than removing a low-lvl-friendly thing from the game.)

really bad decision from nsoft to do this.......

[Youkai Hime]

i've been waiting for the Soul Fighter class to play, i was so excited about it and i'm lvl 17 and loving it... until i had to run lakeside cache. and there's no cross-server dungeon. honestly, what are they thinking? launching a new class but screwing up our leveling? how do they expect people to play? this is total and utterly shit, because there's NOTHING, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING GOOD COMING FROM IT. it helps nothing. it just ruins the game. my hope is that since EVERYONE hated this update NC will realize it was a stupid move and will change it back. or that this is just a very sad bug, and they'll fix it soon.

maybe we should mass-submit tickets for NC, asking them to change it back. they can't ignore it. the game is supposed to be fun for the players, if they see we're all hating it and leaving the game they will surely change it.

[Nevereverland]

I was gonna buy premium and other stuff cause i wanted to open a few more classes to play with them but I saw this and I'm not sure I am gonna open new char or buy stuff anymore. I wouldn't criticise if leveling up would have been hard or sth but last year it took me 2 days to hit 45, now it should take me 3 days or so but with the removal of the green dungeons from the room meh.. everybody is almost +45 so lower level areas are empty. Not gonna waste my time with not newbie friendly game. Congratulations NCsoft you just made one of the worst moves in 2016 for this game.

It is terrible I liked the old way where you click on the region and you got the list of dungeons there, green, blue, and purple. Waited over an hour on a Saturday and never found a group for any of the green dungeons and it also seems they have pulled recipes from 1 Brightstone ruins as well. Have not seen one drop since the patch before SF came out. They need to put it back the way it was. It worked!

I do agree it was really bad move by them to remove the green dungeons from F8, but i still think its good too , make it more serverwide to do it together with ppl on the same server and become more social with people on ur server then just f8.

That sounds nice... if there ARE people on your server in that level range.  That's what F8 was good for: it doesn't matter if you're on a low population server, you can still actually find people.  It still is good for that, but only for the things you can use it for.

 

When it's harder to actually do Adder's Nest than Blackram Narrows, because you can easily find a party for Blackram Narrows but will probably have to solo Adder's Nest, then something is wrong.  Fortunately you only really need to do Adder's Nest once because it's a 100% drop.

 

Then there's Darkglimpse...

[zapzap77]

Lol soul fighters can solo pokey and the giant plague mite no problem. you don't even need to be thatgood. range stance, circle strafe, and spam both mouse clicks for the win. RMB gets the eggs/other mites.  You MAY have to get help at darkglimpse.

 

Summoner, force master, even destroyer can solo those first two green group dungeons. Dunno about the other classes. 

 

It's still a pain, but i don't think the missing greens is really an issue until darkglimpse, which is ludicrously hard without at least two helpers.
