I was at least planning to try out gumiho on c8, I already knew she is the worst of them all.

But with 345 I cant even do it without Nouver. 

And like that I just wont even try, I cant be alone, right?

Hope its sov offhand for some free ap and monster dr. PA chocking us so hard with AP and the corn costs are crazy, I want some slack.

Either way, if not its fishing for me.

I dont really like that they're forcing us to use Nouvers to access this content, specially after implementing total stats score. Even with Nouvers, too many players are left out and most of C7 bosses suck. Players with lower AP should be allowed to give it a try, being aware that it'll take way longer, but at least they have a choice to make.

Bright side is that at least we can currently do 4/5 C10 bosses with tags so we wont be missing out much.

You may be better off stacking +5AP crystals for raw hidden AP, as far as I know it scales with damage on skill multipliers while monster AP is just flat damage added on top of it (that's why monster damage is so good when you already reached PvE AP cap).

Because of these, I think Sov Offhand & monster AP may not be a solution, and if u can survive these bosses, Nouver's AP + all AP crystals are still going to scale better for damage than any monster AP. We can debate if having extra 5 crystals infused in offhand d improve that gap to be smaller.

I didn't even bother.  More 1% content and annoying stuff 

source? where did PA state the dr breaking points for 8-10?

This game have no content for end game, literally one spot where you need to have some kind of end game gear. They added 1 boss with higher gear requirement and people immediately crying.

Not crying.  just not worth my time, lol

don't understand why C8 need 345AP------

To force f2p players to continue enhancing equipment to get better chance for Dawn gear (and | or Thunder Volt pity) and DUO Debos rewards.  Otherwise, force to p2w whom can effort it. 

No Boss is really difficult once you get used to it...

When I did C10 Gumiho I really enjoyed the mechs. She needs some improvements though, like proper aim with the orbs phase.

Apart from this I dont have any complaints about Shrine bosses +C8, theyre fun and rewarding. I just think itd be better for the game if more players could enjoy it since C7 and below is garbage both mech and rewards wise and PA seems to want to increase the gear reqs even more. There isnt much content thats actually fun in the game, so gatekeeping its doesnt make much sense imo.
