I hate that every Intercept is just a dps check

[Crash]

None of them really provide any level of challenge, I'm doing hard mode intercepts and they're just the same boss with no extra mechanics. Perhaps the last few offer some challenge? but at the moment I'm just hating that I feel like I'm playing a gacha game where the "challenge" is the enemies/boss are just hp sponges and the real difficulty is the 10 minute timer. It's shocking.

There's some with mechanics that are more than dps checks. Just keep going, likely to get more in the future. Problem is it has created players just like you mentioned, who think that its all they gotta do and then they get hit by mechanics and have no clue how to function.

The mechanic ones don't start until Hanged Man, but to get into hard mode, you don't even need to bother with any more void bosses.

I mean the game is get gear -> upgrade gear -> kill mob -> get gear -> upgrade gear -> kill mob ... just like every other game. They are also mechanics checks and as simple as the mechanics are, many still fail

Seems like, underneath what you are saying, you don't want to put in the grind needed to progress in the game.

Play a different game.

[Wehzy]

It is a DPS check and nothing more.

I saw multiple people killing bosses within seconds.
Was pretty insane.

I am on swamp walker now. It is not hard, but I am going to have to go grind so I beat the P2W timer. I will need to grind upgrades on a sniper to pop the tubes in its invulnerability phase.

I can already pop them, but, it takes too long so the P2W timer hits zero, so I fail the mission despite having full health and lives.

It just means you got carried to it by that point, if you invested even little into the gun - you'd have no issues whatsoever.

I play solo. So who exactly was carrying me?

And I never used a sniper before. I am just using one now because of how tanky the Swamp walkers's invulnerability phase tubes are.

The general rounds weapon gives the best return when trying to beat the lazy noob timer.

It is a DPS check but there are mechanics to the DPS check.

Plenty of people still don't know how tearing off parts affects the rage meter so they just spam the boss mindlessly, turning it immune and prolonging the fight. Don't deal with adds properly etc.

The difference between a group of people who know what they're doing and a group of people who don't is quite apparent. Even if they put out similar DPS numbers.

I use general rounds 90% of the time then switch to sniper to pop the tubes. Right now I can 2 or 3 shot them with a sniper. I will need to grind my sniper until it can one shot each tube.

Most of the game is a dps check. That's what happens is level based games like this one.

Takes me less than a 31 round clip to kill each tube using Thundercage (500k dps)

[xXSetsu]

yea just look at Gluttony...... it screams for some 1 shot exploit because no matter if u have 45k+def 10k hp 8.5k ele res you are still 1 shot.

You are better off trying to dps / instakill him.

Pretty horrible design for a game to embrace broken stuff / bugs

You want a cookie?

I think what annoys me about them is the way the hard ones mix people who have and have not done them before. I seem to always get people who just aren't ready.
