The problem is that it did not use to be that way. It was a challenging game. Now it is a frustrating game because there is very little I can do to upgrade my power because I do not have enough power to do the things that I have to do to upgrade my power. It is a vicious circle. On my guild we have lost 4 of the top 10 players because it became so boring. I know of other players in my server that have also quit because of the same issue.
I do not want the HR Bosses not to be difficult to beat. Then there would not be any challenge in the game. My complain is that the game does not give me a way to gain the power to beat the bosses in a reasonable time. It took me 3 weeks to beat the Mud Giant. It looks like it will be at least that for the Spider and even longer for the next two according to what I read in the forum. That is over two months before I will be able to even start trying to get the Lightbringer Relic plans that I need, and we all know that the drop rate for relic plans is very low.
The only two reasons that I do not quit all together is because of the interaction with the Guild members in the chat, and with them dropping that is becoming less of an incentive, and the thousands of dollars that I have invested in the game (VIP8+).
On your suggestions
- True, and if the game had started that way it would not be a problem because it would have not created the imbalance that exists today. The fixes for that have created the problem for the higher level players because of the need to sow them down so the the lower level players can catch up. Trying to beat HR bosses when I will get nothing from it is very frustrating.
- True, but you still need the raw power to be able to beat the HR bosses. Formation can only do so much. Most of my runes are at level 9 or 10 with a very few 8s. I also have 4 'super yellow' runes and they are either 9 or 10. getting the runes to upgrade the ones I have and the spirits to buy the 'super yellow' is mindless clicking and luck. I do not get enjoyment doing that.
- Realm wars are not available to us so what is the point.
- If I switch realms then I loose all my friends in the Guild. Even if I do that what would be the fun of watching innumerable battle scenes fighting players that are not challenging?
- I would not have socketed them if I had known that there was a extremely stiff penalty to remove them. How was I supposed to know that until I tried to remove one? That is one of my biggest complains with the game. I also lost over 2000 gems when I clicked on Quick Merge once because I did not know what it did and it created a level 4 jewel that I could have bought at the Fair for 130 gems. When I asked for them back I got no response.
- I do not know what you mean by "Try to beat my 30 kill streak".
- What I refuse to go to the higher levels of the Lab until they make the rewards better based on the difficulty. It is a matter of principle for me. In any case looking at the battle scenes time after time is a waste of time. If they had an option to suppress them I would consider it.
- There is no way I can sink them. With some one sailing with them it becomes impossible. One I can not do at all. She is 22 mil power above me. the other two are 5 mill above me and I could possible steal a map from the shore but then they would get a revenge on me. I do not keep my 'pockets' empty so that I have the credits and coins for Tuesdays and Thursdays so giving some one a revenge is not an option.
- I will not attack during WB. I consider that to be unfair. The players are defenseless because they van not move or leave during the battle scene. The same is true while in a battle in HR.
- And what is the fun in that? Staring at the screen for one hour and maybe getting 1 mil coins? You you to be kidding.
- With a player that is 22 mil above me the best I can do is get to the Gold level but not finish it. I have only gotten one card from HP and that was on level 10 when that player stepped down one week. I usually get coins or credits. If I ever got a Calvin card in the lower level it wold be worthless because he already is a 1/2 Angel V and can go no higher.
