  • People are going to hate the restricted roster because it takes you out of your comfort zone and forces you to use characters that you're unfamiliar with and sometimes just plain weak.

    That said I think we can use a bigger 3* selection than just 3 heroes. Since the selection for 3* seems fairly arbitary (other than no villians) it's not unusual to have no 3* that's useful besides the guy who is major boosted and that's just not very fun. Or they need to change the boosts to +50 to 2* so they're usable in a 166 roster, or minor boost to +60 for 3* depending on whether the goal is to use 2* or 3*s.

    My hunch with most if not all PvE that involves character selection (particularly for the 3*'s) is that they pick based on characters they want to test in different scenarios, uses, environments, timeframes, teamups, rosters, balancing, etc etc, so on, so forth.

    They want a collection of sizeable and statistically current and valid metrics because of directions they are taking or looking to take these selected characters.

    I think player comfort or team usage or whatever is barely a side issue to them but once they have settled on their 3*s, and put the newest 2* in, then they'll loosely balance the rest with a decent (enough) cross section of the 2* and 1* roster.

    I think the officially promoted term would be "promoting roster diversity".
  • Between Jugg headbutts and Venom stuns, I don't even know what's more annoying...

    Only positive aspect is that the scaling of my nodes has actually decreased instead of the expected rise into oblivion. A sign that many players are struggling in this event?

    Could one of you get a poll started along the lines of: "What Aspects Of Heroic Chapters/Events Do You Dislike The Most?" with numerous voting options such as "Limited Rewards," "Old content," "rubberbanding," etc.

    I'd run one myself but I don't want to miss voting options the long-standing community may understand better. This would be a serious poll that the developers will look at to best determine what to fix.

    Thanks in advance for anyone who would care to assist with this!

    Sorry, been traveling for the last couple days and missed this. Everyone seems to have handled it, though.

    At least this time it isn't for a new character.

    I think Heroic mode has been vastly improved. Subs means you don't have to do the exact same fights over and over, and the reinforcements mean you get some roster variety. Also, we get more characters to play with these days. So no, I don't think this needed to be bumped.

    Also they redesigned the nodes so that goons don't feed colors to heroes.

    Hatshepsut... this thread is 9 months old but is still as relevant. D3, are you paying attention?

    Your playerbase hates your methods. Your rewards are stale, your delivery is crude and your grind is ridiculous. Stop fighting change and embrace it. 9 months, D3. You need to embrace change or accept defeat.

    But haven't canceled them yet, so thread still has its point.

    They also aren't using Heroic events to launch new characters, so they are extremely skippable if they are not your cup of tea. There has been much improvement. If you don't like the new Heroics either... Well, you can't please everyone.
