Ooooh really? Tell me more pretty please!!

I've done it as a tank.

Twice.

Even the second play through took two hours.

But I did it.

It's done.

on a serious note, a hardmode would be nice.

its getting so trivial now

Unlike everyone here, I would like to see Maelstrom nerfed.

It's a single player DPS race, designed like it, and the weapons are required for DPS optimization. That ain' right.

DPS must PVP until rank six for a decent heal and complete a DPS race to maximize DPS potential. This game, man. If I played DPS I'd likely have left a long time ago.

Just curious, forgive me but is there any content in this game you don't want to get nerfed ?

Read a scroll before you go in to enable hard mode (like dungeons), golden weapons at the end. Hellz yeah.

Everybody has that at some point. I witnessed a friend getting through it today. He was about to quit the game for the day but pushed through and got it in the end.

Just kidding.

Thank you for the experience! I know people hate it for the **** loot but I had a blast completing it(and probably will hate it after multiple times). Yes I hated it. Yes I felt devestated when the boss was at 2% and still died, but the feeling when the boss dies and the message shows that you completed it. I will not forget that for a long time!

Thank for having something hard and unforgiving as maelstrom!

Next target: deathless

I came here expecting a slaughtered OP.
I am disappointed.

Lol that dps race myth again.

Every nonboss wave has around 3-5 (sometimes a bit more but most of the time in that numbers) mobs at the same time and normally one specific mob trigger or the next mobs spawn when the last mob is around 20%. So definitely no dps race. If you cant deal with even that then thats on you.

1st boss indeed is a dps that requires around 15k tops to have no problems killing him. If you aoe the adds down asap i guess its not even a dps race.

2nd boss ofc is easier if you only have to deal with one boss at a time but its still possible with all 3 to not have a problem. The blades can be annoying but if you use sigils and the levers those too aren't really a problem, just be aware and try to avoid them.

3 boss adds spawn % based so no dps check.

4th boss I can't really say if mobs get more as i almost never got to a 3rd fire phase.

5th boss adds spawn % based as well as the platforms get destroyed % based except for the last one. You have like 30 sec after boss got below 30% so you have enough time to kill adds then focus the boss.

6th boss enrage is indeed time base but you need to be aware of the spider that spin the stone and use the hoarvors to clear them. If all 5 are cleared the enrage timer of the boss gets reset so also not a dps race.

7th one isn't a dps race either. Just stand under the menders and you are fine.

8th boss doesn't change in add numbers anytime. Just focus the stones and get them down asap. Then you can dot up the boss and kill any adds that spawned.

Last boss isnt dps race either just make sure to kills adds and not let the golden ghosts reach the boss.

I am curious in regards to all of you players singing the praises about veteran maelstrom arena and how awesome and fun it is or w/e.

Do any of you play as a healer? Do any of you play as a tank?

I can understand how perhaps a damage dealing class who focuses on mobility and high burst damage may enjoy this sort of content. But so far I have to say this one of the most miserable experiences I have ever encountered on a video game trying to complete this crap on my healer.

Content designed for dps roles should not drop gear for healing roles. That should go without saying. Or in the very least - if they are going to require players to completely re-design their characters into other roles then they need to do away with the cost of reassigning points.

So far I hate it also.

From what I gather - you basically just run around bursting everything to death. So any build not designed for that style of play is going to loath it.

I was expecting something a lot more fun and enjoyable then this.

What you should do is create a new toon that is designed to be a DPS, that way you can com

Most people have multiple characters that are all designed for different roles, that way they can run different ways, are more versatile, and can complete dailies more times.
