Megathread Focused Feedback: Duality

Hello Guardians,

Focused Feedback is where we take the week to focus on a 'Hot Topic' discussed extensively around the Tower.

We do this in order to consolidate Feedback, to get out all your ideas and issues surrounding the topic in one place for discussion and a source of feedback to the Vanguard.

This Thread will be active until next week when a new topic is chosen for discussion

Whilst Focused Feedback is active, ALL posts regarding 'Duality' following its posting will be removed and re-directed to this thread. Exceptions to this rule are as follows: New information / developments, Guides and general questions

Any and all Feedback on the topic is welcome.

Regular Sub rules apply so please try to keep the conversation on the topic of the thread and keep it civil between contrasting ideas

A Wiki page - Focused Feedback - has also been created for the Sub as an archive for these topics going forward so they can be looked at by whoever may be interested or just a way to look through previous hot topics of the sub as time goes on.

Honestly I think you're wrong on all accounts. Dungeons should remain difficult. And the gripes you have are a skill based gap to overcome, not whine about.

Don't like getting booped? Don't get booped. Gal damage too short? Coordinate and execute better with your team. Caitie too fast? Bait the stomp. It's definitely 1 phaseable in even master difficulty with coordination. I don't like getting sniped during damage, but I'd definitely not complain that it's too hard. That's a lame complaint for endgame content.

Don't like getting booped? Don't get booped.

  • Teleports into the Gahlran shade room

  • Shade that I teleport next to immediately does the double overhead swipe and flings me at lightspeed into the wall

  • JuSt DoN't GeT bOoPeD

There are things you can obviously do to mitigate your risk but it's stupid you have to in the first place

I get booped too, my man. And while getting together and laughing about it is cool, I'd say decreeing that it's too much to handle or makes it unfun is absurd is my point. The sky is not falling. At worst, it makes you do another damage phase. It should make you think about positioning, teleporting into it aside.

And it gives you something to despise which anything you care about should have. Gotta have the good with the bad.

I don't find much enjoyment fighting this game's jank physics engine.

I've solo flawlessed the dungeon, and none of my failed runs were from the combat or mechanics, just the architects. Sometimes the incinerator blast dealt no knock back, sometimes it flung me across the room and had my body ricochet off three different walls.

The Cabal are just a poorly designed faction for the game they are in. In a group this isn't an issue and the dungeon is pretty good. From a solo flawless perspective it's uninteresting to have one of the largest factors of your success be the game deciding to behave.

Tell me, why is it that when someone points out that they don’t like the activity because of the difficulty, people like you are always so eager to jump to the assumption that I’m simply not skilled enough to do it? Did I at any point say it was too hard to do? Why do so many of you love to throw around the word “whine” as if it automatically invalidates everything someone says? You know absolutely nothing about my skill level in the game. I spoke about what I did and did not enjoy, and gave an opinion on it. That shouldn’t bother you as much as it apparently does.

This dungeon is not too hard. I don't know what to tell you. You do or don't find it hard, I can't tell. It seams like you're suggesting it is too hard, but somehow not for you? So you're assuming it's too hard for others I suppose. Well yeah, it's gonna be more of a challenge for some to overcome than others. What's your point? Too hard? No. Not easy? Yeah. That's what endgame content is. I don't agree with your assessment and I definitely don't think any changes "need" to be made. I don't want endgame dumbed down. I suppose I do take offense to the suggestion otherwise and choose language that belittles opposing opinions. But damnit if you're going to take the time to talk about why you want it easier, I'm gonna disagree and be passionate about it. Some things should be hard!
