Revisiting nMA and nDSA

r34lian

We know nDSA and nMA dosent drop weapons but nBRP does so how about they make them like nBRP drop no perfect weapons with basically 1 set bonus and all the people how had got their weapon from veteran difficulty get 2 bonus like how it is in BRP

Perfect Radial Uppercut
LEVEL 50 - CP 160
Type Arena
Set bonus
(2 items) Adds 1487 Physical Penetration, Uppercut deals 100% of its damage to one enemy near your primary target.

Radial Uppercut

It is not fun doing vMA with 350+ ping with dodge roll and break free dosent work properly and lord rng bestows you dececive axes and charged maul as reward.

I'm in two minds over this.

On one hand, I would love to see these older single-player trials revisited and changed to encourage people to go there and do them. (I have no idea how many people actually do them.)

But, Maelstrom weapons (bow and inferno staff especially) are still BIS in some fit guides and DSA still offers some good weapon choices, so maybe it's best to keep it as it is, status quo.

I never did finish VMA. The lag killed me so often that the fun of a difficult challenge was totally sucked out of me.

nDSA is soloable with any real problems and nMA is a walk in the park and it’s harder to die than it is to complete it.

The weapons previously had a 1 piece bonus but that got removed, all for bringing that back but to reward people with a weapon that’s so strong for doing content that’s so weak you may as well add it to loot tables for fungal grotto 1

There are hundreds of posts on this forum by people begging for the extra set bonus to be added back to VMA weapons. This should be the price they have to pay to get what they want. ZOS has already stated that they would have to invest developer resources to make this happen. If significant dev time is going to be spent on this, I believe EVERYONE should benefit, including players who would be happy with Imperfect weapon drops from NMA

I've completed it 5 times with around ~400 ping I tell you it's very fun when you don't get any uppercut animatoon or boss suddenly breaks platform without raging visual and after all this get charged daggers twice and dececive and sharpened maul it's really a l2p issue right?

Totally disagree that everyone should benefit. Everyone shouldn’t have everything.

Previously the weapons had 129 spell or weapon damage. Removing this was not a huge nerf just an unnecessary nerf. If impacted PvP more than anything since it wasn’t mainly used purely for this bonus.

Having the actual weapon has the potential for a much bigger increase to damage, although if completing VMA isn’t possible this isn’t always likely.

If the bonus for vet was to be 500 and active on both bars whilst Hail/Blockade is active then maybe we can talk because then there’s a value in doing the value and enough of a differentiator between the versions.

Overall though I’m against the medal for everyone approach and much rather have a reward for completing what’s the hardest solo content in the game and it should be something to aim for but not for everyone to secure.

I’ve done it flawless on NA with 250-300 ping and with 250CP, I agree ping doesnt help you and does make a difference but doesn’t stop you from completing it or doing it comfortably once you are attuned to it.
