Player nerf or Enemy buff?

[r1p]

I didn't do an arkfall but the Evangel looked like Walmart on black friday.

It was worse. I did one at TL4 with a random 2k-ish ego player and he couldn't stay off the ground. I had a heck of a time with a OJ Crit\Blue Dmg TN Boomer and ST Bio Blast rifle with 105 Mag. I spent half my time picking him up and it took almost full mags to bring down the common enemies and 40-50 nodes to destroy the Evangel. Something that usually takes 5 minutes at that TL took 20+ minutes and felt more like soloing a TL10 instance.

I loathe the SV conflicts to begin with because they feel like they have no real purpose, they tend to get bugged and never finish, and the rewards are terrible. I usually do less then half the contracts that relate to them because of this and now I won't be doing any.

The heat sinks at the progenitor are so OP now they hit you when your standing on the side of them. You spend the whole time bouncing on your butt or picking people up.

Dealt with both a Hellion and a Monolith from hell last night. The Hellion I managed to catch the end of, which might I add the player's there had fought down the timer. We killed it at the very last second, and I mean, the VERY LAST second. There was 8 seconds left when the Crit kill fell. That is just RIDICULOUS. Especially for the player's who arrived at the beginning of the ark fall. Time consuming enough, get to the end, and if you don't have an overkill amount of people, you're likely going to lose now.

The Monolith... Good God almighty. He was one-shotting us with his rockets! We spent over half the timer dying, extracting, and reviving other people. If we would have managed to defeat it (spoiler alert: we lost), I'm sure my death to revival ratio would've been even with the other. It was frustrating to the point where I nearly rage quit, but I just need one more friggin' SV ark fall for my contracts. Definitely didn't get it with that one.

I don't really have any gripe with an enemy buff in SV. You want to make it a challenge for higher egos, cool. That's great. But this is way too much of a buff. At least make it to where it's possible. And to be quite honest, the Monolith could be a pain in the arse even without the buff, but this just made it OP.

If the aim is to have more people partake in Major ark fall events, this isn't the way to go. :/ It just slams everyone else hoping to get through it. There won't be a lot of us showing up to these to begin with, so now those that do haven't the slightest chance to complete or beat the ark fall because of this crazy buff. Really do hope this buff gets a makeover. I don't want to invest 45 minutes of my time into something that's going to be a fail in the end because there isn't an insane amount of players to put out enough damage to kill a boss for little to no rewards.

Also, that Monolith. My map was a graveyard of crosses. I think at one point we were all down and sending out an SOS. Craaaazy.

Alright then. Now I know that hot coffee exiting through my nose is not exactly an enjoyable experience.

I am not going into sv anymore till this op crap is brushed away...screw my weeklies/dailies ... anything in sv or expo's (which is probably 50% or more of my rep tasks) there's nothing worth the rep at vendors anyways...it's like a dollar store bonanza , everything is junk....not wasting 20 minutes on a daily for 2 keys , and I got my taste of sv major, that's just nasty...gl with 10-15 players at these freaking OP'd events ...also, now that AF is what everyone wants/needs , we need these freaking majors, dailies/weeklies to start handing some of this out as well ... getting to the stage where it's wtf, i'm out of here ...
ps, you need to halve the cost of af to supreme...for a player on every day for a year, no dlc, no pp , there's not even a remote chance to supreme a weapon....incredible...

you can do them, just better count on 20-40 minutes each depending on who shows up, and if they let the lil buggers blow the crystal up on stage 2 .. bring lots of stims ....ammo spikes lol....
best off only going to ones that have the blue circles around them, meaning you only have to destroy evangel...probably cut your time in half...

I ran out of ammo twice on one Evangel at TL3 using a flash rifle, bio nades and a det and I was only shooting the Evangel lol

Yea, I'm not reaaly complaining, ya now. I actually like a challenge for a change... But I've seen 6k Egos telling it's hard for them, imagine for an Ego 4,900 like me lol. This is gonna be a pain...
