Hello Community, Hello Devs, I wanted to share my thoughts on the seemingly excessive health points (HP) of Swampthing in the Elite Alert (not Elite+) and simultaneously gather your feedback on the matter. It appears that the HP of this boss in the Elite Alert goes well beyond what constitutes a reasonable challenge. Personally, I find it frustrating to engage with Swampthing for almost a quarter of an hour, even with a full set of gear, artifacts, and nearly 800 SP. The experience feels more like endlessly hitting training dummies than encountering an exciting and challenging boss. My question to the community is whether this is intentional or possibly a mistake. If intentional, I'd love to hear your opinions on the matter and how you are tackling this challenge. If it's a mistake, please fix that Thank you for your attention and contributions! XBlue
I agree with everything you said.. Felt like I was in Elite plus for the last boss when playing it.. Too high of an HP Pool and this boss is where groups tend to have deaths and possibly a team wipe ( had that happen to me twice this week ). Im ok if the HP pool that high on Elite BUT there should be a reward for that grind too, 15- 25 minutes on the final boss and you're looking at close to 30 - 40 minutes for an Elite Alert..
Unfortunately, that's a question for the devs, not the community, as we simply don't know. There's been half a dozen threads about this and they haven't said anything. (Getting the community's opinions on the change is perfectly fine, of course.)
