Veteran Public Dungeons

Conquers

add an option to make all Public Dungeons Veteran Difficulty, where everything is harder, amazing loot drops, etc. opinion? these would be harder than veteran dungeons, and the bosses will require skill, mechanics, and maybe even need more than 10 people. but the loot from said bosses is epic, like a pet from each dungeon, a special set gear, recipes, a new motif only droppable from these bosses.

all veteran public dungeons will be at the maximum lvl (so, all vr16 atm)

edit: also, the Vr / normal toggle would work same as any dungeon. so if the VR setting is on for grouping tool, then you will enter a VR public dungeon, and vice versa

UrQuan

yes

So basically when you enter the public dungeon you're given the option to enter the normal version (set to whatever level it would be set to depending on the dungeon and whether it's in your home alliance or a cadwell's Silver or Gold zone), or to enter the veteran version that is always VR16 and significantly increased difficulty with possibly different bosses or different boss mechanics? But either version that you enter is still totally public rather than being instanced to you and any people you may be grouped with? Yeah, I'd like that.

Morimizo

yes

Would really like this. +1

Epona222

yes

Yes, anything that gives people more options and fun times
I've also thought it would be good to have (optional, for those who wanted it) instanced scaled versions of the Public Dungeons for various sized groups, levels, or even solo attempts. So you could try a version of the dungeon for a solo challenge, or instanced to a small group, or to a large group (more like a trial), scaled to fit with your level and group size. Unique or cool/fun rewards for playing it in different ways. Anything that adds replayability would be welcome

RatedChaotic

cool, but that has nothing to do with future development of content

Cillion3117

yes

I don't know about needing more the 10 people to beat the boss, but I do like the overall idea.

I agree, this would revitalize public dungeons for me.

Bluepitbull13

yes

Please let this be an option

oSemaj

yes

This would give me a reason to set foot inside a public dungeon.

Conquers

yes

So from these people saying "no" can we get an actual downside from you or nah

Epona222

I think they are people who can't see anything beyond "this skill is broken" or "there is a bug with this armor set". Of course bugs need to be fixed, but that is no excuse to not have vision and hopes for the future.

Exactly, selling this game to new players would you rather see on the back of the box

"now with the trap beast bug fixed"

or

"now with even more fun challenges for you and your friends"

"New" sells a lot better than "fixed"

Xendyn

yes

I'd like this. I remember when publics used to be hard and you'd wait at the door for other people to group or just run with.
ZOS has dumbed the whole game down way too much, it's time to get some challenge (interest) back in here.
Also it would make for some replayability which would be great. Too much one-and-done going on around here.


For those with the "No, fix bugs first"...well duh.
Just because people come up with a new idea doesn't mean it has to take immediate precedence over everything.

Why dont they just scale up the trials instead of making vet public dungeons that will suck and nobody will use?

Conquers

yes

clearly none of us will use it, as you can see its 0% yes, 100% no

RAGUNAnoOne

yes

I would like this, especially if it is tied to your dungeon difficulty settings. but if no one had a choice then the answer is no.

Conquers

yes

well just as if you have the option to vet/normal on your social screen for 4man dungeons, it would also affect the public dungeon difficulty

NobleNerd

no

Basically a bigger issue to develop this. You are asking them to develop a feature that requires a rework of the current one. Public dungeons are open to everyone that enters the instance, so now they would need to reprogram it to recognize a level difference and create a new phase of said instance for only vr16 players.

I can see the bug reports rolling in already.

They need to fix other major issues in the game before adding fluff features.

not what i mean, it 100% is based on the option you toggle Veteran or Normal. it will work EXACTLY like the dungeons we have now. if you have normal toggled, then as a v16 you can only enter the normal instance, unless otherwise toggled

edit: again with "fix other major issues" first, leave that for your own "wah wah fix this thread", this thread is for people who want to suggest things because free speech exists. you don't like that something is broken? make your own thread about it don't change the subject in another thread

redspecter23

yes

I'll always vote for more endgame options for places to level up and farm gear and loot. The current plan of obsoleting content at a greater rate than it can be replaced is a recipe for disaster.

Yes, because obviously everyone who might be interested in vet public dungeons would much rather do trials, and nobody who does trials would ever be interested in vet public dungeons. Obviously.

/sarcasm as well

Cazic

yes

Yeah, this would be awesome! Good idea.

Moonshadow66

yes

Did I hear "optional"? Count me in I'd like to do both Vet and normal, depending on my mood.

Molag_Crow

yes

Straight away I clicked Yes. I do love challenging content being there, even if I can't complete it. lol

ADarklore

How about them also adding Veteran Delve option for us solo players to have a chance to get cool loot drops too.

Shunravi

yes
