Feedback thread for Unchained Halls of Eternal Frost, Caravan Raiders Hideout

The Archer boss in Scorpion Caves has too much hitpoints. We had a group of four good players (skill and fully khitai/t4 geared) and two average, and we could not get him below 10-15%. According to my parse and some math, he has approximately 2,700,000 health, which is more than Louhi in T3. And an enrage timer at 5 minute 40 seconds. I was tanking the boss on my DT, doing 1700-1800 dps, so with a Guardian or Conqueror tanking him, it would be even harder. We kept getting the BS and offtank charmed and they could not do the dps required from them with the buff active. Adjusting the hitpoints a fair bit down or extending the enrage timer by a minute or so would make this boss doable for many more groups.

Its more like 2,4 mil. health. Its doable but I cant imagine 2 guards tanking it. Well the truth is you dont even need a second tank for the whole dungeon so...

Well it can be tanked in frenzy stance anyway. The only deal with the bosses HP (and same with the last boss) is it just wrecks the encounter, there's not enough mechanics to justify so much HP, after a few charms we get the idea, no need to prolong it.

Still in all groups I've been with, very few players can be agile enough to effectively make the most of themselves and the charmed person.

Zoerri, an offtank should never go in a gimp spec. Offtank should be offensively specced only with a goad ready tbh. DT, guardian or conq, same thing.

Anyways you are getting your nerf now. On testlive boss hp will have 12.5% less hp.

Its good that at least The Scorpion Cave and The Halls are and will be more pug/casual player friendly. There has been like zero content for casuals in years if we dont count nerfs of the existing content.

Why does there have to be a cooldown on the quest at all? Isn't it enough that the dungeon has a lockout? I'd really like it if it was like the repeatable T4 quests. You can return them, repick the quest right away and complete it when the dungeon is not on a cooldown any more.

ive completed the "mastering the old world" and could get it shared immiedetly again

We did this last night - I actually enjoyed the archer prince fight. Actually had something that t4 gear was useful for (other than t4 i mean). Plus, everyone had to actually pay attention, and I liked the movement aspect. It worked fine when no one died - funny that. And I was on my guard with a carnage conq - yeah, it can be pretty much solo tanked. The shah was snore-worthy - just stand there and mash the keyboard. Nerfing it will certainly allow more to do it, but for geared toons it's a nice challenge as is.

That is all

Time to stop making excuses, things are as stable as they are going to get. Let me off this damn rock.

[01:32] Demigod of Acheron died.

Fun boss I must say, reminded me of Jade Dugout (in a good way) & Fury's first afaik.

Those new pots should *really* last 4 hours like all the others, 2 isn't enough. And why are DTs getting wisdom ones? They're useless unless you use terrible light armor.
