    Wait & See for me

    I don't mind heroics now, but I used to hate them when my roster was more limited. I'm willing to try out the unlimited rosters and see how I feel afterwards. It's not like they've announced this is a permanent change - it's just a trial.

    Try first before I state whether I like or dislike it. Either way it won't be the end of the world. I usually only play heroics until the 4*.

    Wait and see.

    Personally, the only thing I like about Heroics is that they're short. Since moving into the 4* range, they've gotten a lot easier, but it's still a dice roll on who will be buffed. I still remember what a slog they were when in the 2-3* phase though, which is probably where a large chunk of the playerbase is. If it can make it easier for newer or casual players to get into the game more, I'm all for it.

    I voted for limited, but I expected to be in a small minority with that vote. Very surprised at results, so far.

    a lot of 5 star players like heroics because the scaling allows them to use other heroes

    Id rather they stay limited, and Im not a 5* player. I just enjoy being forced to use characters I otherwise
    don't even bother with.

    Only change I'd like to see is how the scaling is calculated. Right now its calculated against your whole roster,
    make it so the scaling fits your "limited" roster in heroics.

    Hard to say.
    I've played Heroics where every boosted 4* character that week has been someone I haven't champed and it's been a wretchedly slow experience.
    That said, giving me options for unboosted 4* doesn't help all *that* much...

    I'm a 3* player with a well rounded roster above and below that. I enjoy most heroics because it makes me think outside my predefined box. My favorite part of the heroics is figuring out the new combinations from the limited pool and adapting quickly to it.

    How else am I going to use those beast, mystique, or colossus champs (okay maybe not that far).

    Yeah... no.
    Every time they said they're "testing" and asked for feedback, they were only looking to tweak the formula, not go back to the previous implementation.

    So like it or not, this will be here to stay.

    5* player here, limited please.

    Limited! 5* scaling Boring.
    Make All 1-2* aviable, 3* 8-10, 4* enough boost week icon_e_wink.gif

    I'd like to see them try heroics with no 5*s and no boosting at all. Open up your roster to be able to use more of it (assuming your leveling isn't totally skewed) rather than less of it against the tougher nodes.

    If you want a limited roster, then limit yourself. I like the unlimited roster and hope this stays for all heroics. This is another positive change for MPQ... keep up the good work D3!!
