Finally took the time and finished Nchuleftingh yesterday. It turned out that the hardest thing in that public dungeon is its name. Especially the so called group event is ridiculously easy. So...is that stuff too easy?

    I think it depends on your skill level.

    For me sure I can solo the entire thing, might die if I am being stupid or don't pat attention though.

    For a new player who isn't max level, has no CP, doesn't run BiS or close to it and doesn't even know the games mechanics, yeah it's going to be pretty hard for them.

    So I think it's fine as it is, we just have to accept that world content isn't designed to be hard for the end game players.

    With my new Warden character I recently ran some of the "old world" public dungeons and their group events. They are the same difficulty or even slightly easier, I could complete them no problem solo, with green/blue no set gear and without decent ultimates.

    World content is just not supposed to be challenging I guess.

    It is easy but it's consistent with the other group dungeons I think. Maybe Wrothgar is a bit more difficult but the rest are perhaps even easier. I dont think there's any Group Events I haven't soloed.

    Public dungeons don't need to be that hard, there isn't anything there for more experienced players (apart from somewhere to farm weapons sometimes) so they need to be doable for beginners or nodoby would ever run them.

    Same as any other public dungeon.

    It's a public dungeon, not a trial. It's meant for new players with poor gear and no CP to complete...and for them, it wouldn't be that easy if lacking a sufficiently large group.

    I think it should be harder. It's supposed to be a group dungeon after all.

    But it is not, it's a public dungeon. Anyone can go in, whether they have a group or not, whether there are players around or not. Group dungeons, the ones that are group instanced, are harder as they should be.

    For me, I can sleepwalk through it. But public dungeons aren't for endgame pve raiders. It's casual content for the laid back folk and the roleplayers. As long as they're happy with it that's what counts imo.

    I (a healer warden) rolled through it with a templar tank and thought it was a decent challenge, maybe because our dps sucks lol.

    If you make everything hard for end game players, then it becomes nigh impossible for everyone else.

    How it is now is fine.

    This. Plus I don't think it's that easy anyway, especially with a sub-50 character in average gear. Not everything should be tuned for folks who are min-maxed to hell and wearing BiS.

    No. Vvardenfell is a starting zone for those who purchased Morrowind version, and all public dungeons in starting zones (Auridon/Glenumbra/Stonefalls) are quite easy. I'd say that Vvardenfell dungeons might be a bit more difficult for beginners than Toothmaul Gully or Crow's Wood, so there's no need to buff them.

    It's not a group dungeon. Vaults of Madness, FG etc are group dungeons. There's a difference between public dungeons and group dungeons.
