Suggestion: PVE Raid Boss mode

Tue Jan 24, 2017 10:31 pm

We all know kiera got hit pretty hard by the nerf hammer (with the magic resistance DEF gives) but instead of trying to mitigate the damage done and potentially messing up again, I was thinking that the developers could give her (as well as non-PVP oriented heroes) a niche by making her a must-use hero (or mystics at least) for what I'm about to suggest - the raid boss mode. I know the developers already have something similar planned, so I wanna provide some details that could make up for the shortcomings suffered by the less popular heroes in the arena.


The raid boss (be it dragon or phoenix or whatever) would be a permanent addition(not just an event) to the game modes available but can only be attempted 3 times a day. It would occupy a tile-size of 3X3(affected by cleave/splash damage but not thief's multiple hits), and would feature high DEF(to minimize champion's advantage they already own in the arena), 0 MAG and high single-target ATK damage but can be taunted


Rewards would be weapon or armor fragments that could be used to craft high-tier weapons/armors (5/6*; random or selected) but the number of times they can per crafted per month is limited. If player cannot finish the raid boss, allies could attempt to finish for a portion of the fragments depending on the percentage of damage dealt.


This would make Kiera a must-have PVE-oriented hero for this raid boss mode with her massive AOE MAG damage, and with it being taunt-able, Darrion, a unpopular PVP hero as well, would be crucial to ble able to make full use of his high DEF to tank high single-target ATK. Ideally, this mode would be meant to allow non-PVP-oriented heroes to shine and players who are given these heroes not to be disheartened, knowing that these heroes serve a purpose.

Hello Mr Enixus. I believe one friend of mine told me once ago that the dragon boss mode that was available on those local events worked exactly as you say. I don't want to sound rude but, your suggestion is way too similar to what he told me. Besides, even if mystics were to be more used in this kind of boss mode well, we have Ronan Mind Warder, he can debuff enemies DEF to 0! He's kinda of OP  right now. I did not expected a hero so early in game to be able to do that. Unless the boss is imune to debuffs, but still, something to consider.
