Arena's.... GET ON WITH IT!

Defatank · May 13

A small suggestion thread for Arena's...

Could we get an option in the arena say for example in Dragon Star to interact with the braziers that would say "GET ON WITH IT!" and it would light all 5 braziers (or the remaining braziers for that level) and spawn all adds and boss(es) for that level? and even tie some new achievements for it as well for clearing a full level at once

Also, we've been asking for a revamp of vDSA with speed run, no death, trifecta and rest of achievements but no success so far.

No, no, I really like listening to the NPCs talk and talk and talk prior to each round

With all the dialogue and slow spawning between rounds 40 minutes is a speed run.

oh i must have run it like at least year ago.. so i actually have good memories if i think it takes 40 mins?

Yes, please give us an option to skip the dialogue and start the next waves early.

vDSA is just way too long, boring, and tedious.

For this, I would suggest that vDSA be more challenging.

This shouldn't be just for arenas. Dungeon dialogue should be able to be skipped entirely as well.

The pre-round talking in DSA is so annoying, everyone I know wants a way to skip it.
I like the idea of being able to light the braziers manually to start the round immediately, or all rounds at once.

He does love the sound of his own voice tho

Yes! It gives you enough time to go cook dinner, eat dinner with the family, go to the bathroom, and then take a nap, and usually I still make it back in time before the round begins.

Don't you know that VDSA stands for Vitriolic Dialogue Stunting your Access?

Necrotech_Master · May 14

the dialog has nothing to do with the timing of the spawns (other arenas have dialog without the delay on spawns or anything)

as far as im aware, the problem with dragonstar is that it was really old, and the way they coded it is that all the timers (start and spawn timers) are hard scripted, and if i remember right the devs said they would have to basically re-code the entire arena in order to really make any changes to it

i actually enjoy the dialog in the arena, but i do wish that the spawn timers were a bit faster, though it will be unlikely they will actually change it
