How difficult should open-world mobs be?

The mobs that inhabit a zone (Not in the delves, or group dungeons).
Also, because everybody know that open-world mobs are barely a threat unless they are accompanied with a Group Boss.

✭✭✭Combination of aboveWhile it would be nice if they were more difficult, I'd love to just have a bit more variety in difficulty levels.@wayfarerx - PC / North America / Aldmeri Dominion0 -

✭✭✭✭✭Combination of aboveSome mobs should be easy, some should be hard, some should make you think twice about your choices in life.
Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

Zakor✭✭✭Combination of aboveRevert their power back to what they had in beta. The game was actually challenging instead of a faceroll back then...
But I don't think anything will happen. There were so many threads about this already...1 -
MasterSpatula✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭No Changes to DifficultyThey need to be beatable by players with no CP who are still learning the game, which, of course, means that they will be very easy for geared and experienced players. With The Great Flattening almost upon us, this has to be true of every zone. Don't like it? Think it's too easy? Well, I hope you're not also one of the people asking for the CP or gear cap to be lifted.
Power creep with a philosophy of every zone being accessible by every player (and a player base crazy enough to think that's a good idea) means the open world has to be painfully easy to experienced players."A probable impossibility is preferable to an improbable possibility." - Aristotle4 -

Tandor✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭No Changes to DifficultyIt's difficult to standardise the difficulty level of mobs when one player in say a starter zone might be a totally new player finding his feet while another player is running his 5th alt with maxed out champion points. That's just one reason, of course, why I dislike such things being made account-wide.Edited by Tandor on August 30, 2016 9:08PM1 -

✭✭✭✭✭Combination of aboveI'd like to see a variety of difficulties (and have the difficulty reflected in XP/loot gained from them). Why are those zombies over there and these knights over here equally easy to kill? Why not have the zombies be easy and only a problem in significant numbers, while the knights are a fairly difficult fight?
And I realize that there are elite mobs with bigger health bars (giants, mammoths, trolls, etc), but I'd still like to see more variety overall in mob difficulty.

i agree with this... cp does make running a new alt ridiculously easy.0 -
Bryanonymous✭✭✭✭✭Rng and lore would be nice. Difficulty based on the size and ability of the monster, not the zone, and rng to spawn more randomly. But that's a pipe dream...0
