That thing, where to even begin with, that dungeon has many textbook examples of classic how not to do content for a game.

1. Who made solo content like story to co op mode, there is no way for player to read or follow the story while in group, the others are waiting etc. it is a classic problem

2. main story - so group needed, it's not a problem if you have strong friends and everybody can wait and you have easy way to communicate, but with random people it is a chaos, I tried to do main story, but everyone who joined was at diffrent stage, players couldn't sync and it was a mess,

3. difficulty they say you can begin with level 57 yeah right...... that topic is a mess

4. puzzles and overall chaos on map - the amount of strange things happening at the fresh start is so confusing that again playing it with random people is almost impossible

Summary, it is more likely that this thing is already DOA content, making the solo version with main story would be much more improvement that would allow players to learn how to even play it in the first place, so while doing the coop version players could jump right into this and do the right things. Because of story content finding random players is a mess, really some people where in the middle some where grinding thorns the others couldnt do the riddles or they wanted to the riddles that others don't, and here I almost forgot who made this dungeon PUBLIC !!!! I mean that fact that people can interfere .... and it is just group arena is so dump. I will stop typing anything more, the problem is of course pearl abyss itself, that has zero courage to admit that they have made mistake plus that thing was already in Korea plus test server how the f.... noone noticed the obvious problems!? Pearl Abyss is not going to do anything, they are about to push propaganda how wonderfull that content is.... if you have been for a while here I'm sure you know what I'm talking about.....

A group of 5 randos enter a dungeon...

YOU CAN'T DO A CO-OP LIKE THIS SUCCESSFULLY WITHOUT BEING IN VOICE.... ESPECIALLY WHEN ITS THE 1ST RUN

No Knowledge.

1ST RUN OR 2 ARE TO GAIN THAT.....

Didnt take time to learn the mob mechanics...

1ST FEW RUNS YOUR STILL LEARNING THE MOBS MECHANICS NO ONE DOES PERFECT RUNS THERE 1ST TIME THROUGH YOUR GOING TO MAKE MISTAKES

Went in and face tanked all the mobs and died repeatedly.....

AGAIN SEE ABOVE THIS IS EXPECTED ESPECIALLY IF YOU DONT HAVE YOUR TEAM IN VOICE.

Then blamed Someone else for not ever learning the 7 P's Proper Personal Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance...

You jump blindly into a Dungeon with 300 dp the LITERAL Min. requirements then have the nerve to say 95% of the players wont be able to do this content?!?!?!?! i am at a lose for words for the sheer ignorance and stupidity that rolls in these forums for people that are gamers and have played other supposed platforms you people cry alot for those that are experianced MMO players... NUFF SAID

it's fine, not supposed to be able to do it without communicate, ff14's cringe dungeon experience is basically bdo grinding with extra steps, like doing relics scrolls, mindlessly hitting mobs from 1 stage to the next.

imo dungeons must be completed with a team over voice chat, kinda cringe if you can beat the whole thing half asleep like you are grinding mobs, if that's the case I would just go grind mobs.

That sounds like the start of a good joke.

You know ... it's hard to learn mob mechanics if mob kill you with 3-4 hits even with 330 DP and dev don't give us any tutorial.

Why? I am an introvert and don't want to enter into any relationships with other people.

Second. You are from US? You know that in Europe almost every country (and there are 46 of them) has its own language and not all people speak English freely.

then go grind mobs, there are plenty of viable grind spots for solo players like you, also kinda cringe to see you want party content when you are an introvert. 

and, that sounds like a you problem, again, if u can't communicate, you shouldn't be able to do party content, otherwise, just go grind golems, 1 shot skills are even marked for zombie players.

I 100% agree it is however surprising to see so many people freaking out over it not being super easy or as you said being done half asleep.

After 5 years of BDO being in NA this is the 1st dungeon experiance PA has attempted, this is not WOW or FF14. This is in fact BDO and PA's rendition of it as well as this being the lead in, this content after all these years i would honestly expect it to be much harder than what it is. People forget after grinding in a lot of places in BDO In the desert we have gate keepers,Layten(at night) MOST players do not attempt these these are random mobs that will kill you if you dont have gear in some of the easier grind spots in valencia.

Want to see if your gear is decent go fight the Cadre ruins Gate keeper check out his mechanics i just think a lot of players forgot that there are still challenges left in BDO as well as goals to strive for.

No one in PA said this was easy or simple, in fact every KR component that has been doing Attoraxxion was explaining its difficulty.

After the 1st run its no longer a surprise most of the 1 shot mobs once you learn the mechanics as long as your not in the AOE you dont die the trick is learning those mechanics on the 2nd and 3rd time eventually as you upgrade gear and learn the dungeon will become more of a raid than a pain. I am sure rewards will change as well as time it takes to do it should be down to around 45mins-1 hour not 4 hours and multiple deaths.

I don't think people have issue with how difficult the dungeon is, the issue is that you have a very high chance at losing very expensive crystals, I know people that have lost 1BIL or more worth of crystals as they just didn't want to give up. I was in a group and we were all well overgeared for normal difficulty and some of us still died, some fights can get really messy with lots of adds and bosses dealing some crazy damage.

Today Pearl Abyss has crossed the border of insolence. Just watched a boss fight performed by the game's GM. They wanted to show how cool this Atoraxxion is. But ..... they did it on the season channel. ROTFL. Fighting the boss on normal servers looks different, much more difficult.

What they showed was game for children. Bosses very small dp and hp, not all bosses attack, not all boss fight elements eg. when they use color orbs. ROTFL. In real game we have only few seconds and then mobs spam in room. Boss don't have deadly attack when hp drop 50%.

And one more thing: season char with lvl 63? This whole stream was fake.
