Vaermina's Night of "Terror"...

When I saw all the complaints about this game being too easy I pushed them aside because I thought they were just talking about the beginning parts of the game which should be easy, but now that I'm lv 25 I expected boss fights to get more difficult. I was completely wrong, boss fights are actually getting much easier...

It truly is pathetic, I kill any boss without health potions or healing and I don't drop below half life... The most recent cause for this rant was Vaermina's Night of "Terror". The quest builds you up for this extremely powerful boss and what do I get? A monster that I killed in 5 seconds and I didn't drop below 80% health...

CAN WE PLEASE HAVE AN OPTION TO INCREASE THE DIFFICULTY OR SOMETHING??? This game is extremely disappointing when it comes to boss fights... I would really like to at least be forced to drink a health potion once.

TL:DR
Give us an option to increase the difficulty like every other Elder Scrolls game or just increase the difficulty...but I know tons of people that don't know how to play would complain about that so giving us the option is prob the only choice >.<

    Nope. This game is a faceroll. Most world bosses can be done solo without any potions or healing of any kind. (at least from level 1-50, apparently at about vet 5 it gets kind of challenging)

    yeah not sure what your build is but it almost sounds like you have some cheat or something working for you, not accusing but I find the bosses in this game extremely challenging so either I am not spec'ed right or my gear sucks and for the most part all I do is use the gear I get given to me as quest rewards. So if the game and quests are designed correctly I should have the correct gear because I am using what they give me as I progress through the storyline.

    Are you kidding me? No wonder you are having trouble. Quests definitely don't give you all the gear you need. That is why there is crafting and monster drops. I constantly look for better gear as I level to make sure I have the best chances against mobs/bosses.

    I will admit that I had trouble soloing a few of the bosses that were higher level than me (that were mean't for a group), but I can easily solo almost anything besides the 4 man dungeon content (obviously). I just hope the content starts getting more difficult soon because I'm bored plowing through everything without even worrying about dieing.

    congrats on being overpowered. I just spent an hour on night terror and failed because my class and weapon choice sucks. If things are too easy for your its your fault. There are plenty of weak builds in the game. Try one of them quit your whining.

    Yeah, try dual wield Nightblade if you think it's too easy. The difference between a melee build and a Destruction staff build is like night and day.

    The class skills and weapon skills are not balanced.

    That is good to hear, I look forward to it.

    lol? It's my fault for being overpowered? That is probably the most ridiculous post I've seen.

    Well, if the builds are not balanced that is something else they need to work on. I play as a melee/fire mage and wipe everything in my sight though. Maybe I will make a melee/archer build and see how that goes

    You do know you have the ability to make the game as easy or hard as you like, right? All it requires is a bit of creativity and planning, just like in other ES games.

    You do. Take off your armor and wield a level one weapon.

    I shouldn't have to plan to fail just to make the game more interesting. I see your point that I could obviously make the game harder by running around naked and punching things with my fists, but that completely destroys any kind of immersion/fun.

    I want to be challenged even when I use the best gear available to me (which is available to everyone else too because money is not an issue at all in this game. You get everything you need just by progressing in the questline or even just exploring or you can simply craft w\e you need). I want to feel accomplished when I defeat a tough boss and yes I will admit, I want to be a snowflake in the sense that I can defeat something that others might not be able to or just have a harder time doing.

    I still have fun in this game, but since this is an MMORPG I feel a sense of wanting to "show off" just like a LOT of other people. Believe it or not, one of the main reasons people get into an online game is to feel a sense of accomplishment and to show off in front of other people. I am far from an online gamer (the only other game I played online so far is Runescape for a while), but even I can completely understand this if I am honest with myself.
