The counterpoints to these threads always go to the extreme that no one is asking for. “Can’t ever die”, “kill boss button.” “infinite healing,” etc. etc. I’m convinced players just don’t want players in the game they like. It’s wild.
I’m convinced that Loa lost the biggest part of the good community it had in the first months after launch.

yes, you’re very naïve if you think anything in the world is independant
one thing happens, it triggers another thing
for example those with 1 finger can now clear the raid and reach higher. imagine dealing with another fiasco of nerf this nerf that I cleared easy mode and normal is not normal enough.
You’re also naïve to think they will be satisfied with easy braindead raid with less reward
next in line will be make easymode give same reward as hardmode or nerf hardmore cuz it aint fair

If you can’t raid theb how will you ever do future content? Lost Ark is a raid focus game
With enough practice any legion raid can be on farm cause you become a better player at the end of each week

Yes, you’re right, what would happen: we’d get a lot of content for not only a % of players. Which probably would get us new players as well, something Loa is lacking a lot.
Creating easy raids isn’t going to magically make harder modes a walk in the park, you should stop being such an extremist.

also notice how nerf this plz post has been around since launch yet pretty much nothing was done ever since.
one does not have to always make open statement to say something, AGS and SG is saying no to braindead mode.
Now all these are just cryposts since that’s the case

That’s why people who want to raid, but don’t have the ability/time/patience/resources want an easy mode?
I have to agree with him, the game is built around raids, you don’t have to take it as a job, I didn’t do that and I do all raids with ease. If you take that out of the game most players won’t enjoy the game as they should. Just learn from the game and you will do well.
the style of the game is this, that’s why it keeps so many players, the difficulty and then the pleasure of being able to make the sets and items with your own effort.
M8, who is saying they’ll take raids off the game? They want either an easy version of a raid (where you’d have to actively apply to clear) or other ways of farming sets.
think of it this way, majority of people in LA are craving new content and enjoying raids as is.
if SG needs time to make braindead mode for all existing content for the minority: no more new content update for next 5 years since we have limited resource while we make the easy ones. talk about not affecting others then
I agree with this. There are many different games that appeal to OP. Raiding is what makes Lost Ark what it is.
Tbh OP can even just do normal mode, the easier mode, and slowly get the relic materials. Clown G3 too hard? Just do Clown G1 and G2.

I don’t know how a CFO of 121 companies even considers playing a Korean MMO, or why is he even wasting his valuable time in the forums really. While I am skeptical of your claim of being such, I will play along.
The most efficient way, in any cooperative game of any genre, is to dedicate some time, maybe 20-40 minutes, and find people to play with. Pugging is the worse way to experience any type of cooperative game and the way you throw away most of your time.
While I might not be a CFO, I am a regional director in an insurance company, and I’ve been playing games since high school (I am 32). From the very beginning, you learn the paragraph I wrote before., and you apply it because time is not money, since you can’t buy more of it.
The difference in time investment in this game is extremely vast, from a pug to a non-pug experience, and it also lets you plan out your days in your schedule. Let me write out an example:
Clown raid took my static group 2 days of 4 hours (done on Saturday and Sunday) to clear all 3 gates. After the initial clear, we raid clown each Wednesday and it takes us 30-60 minutes to clear. We also do clown with 2 other alts, which takes us a bit more, so add 2 more hours per week.
Clown is by far the longest it has taken us and still takes us to clear per character. However, the advantage of joining a consistent group of people is that it drastically reduces any time commitment and, as a person with a job and tight time, it lets me schedule the rest of my stuff. Let me remind you that I do NOT know these people prior. I simply looked and spammed for a bit for static and they invited me.
Playing Lost Ark is extremely grindy when you add chaos dungeons and guardian raids. Perhaps my main gripe with the gameplay. However, Legion raids are quick and relatively easy when you just go one single more step, get out of pugging, and joining a consistent group.

Lol seeing how slow they’re about creating content, i can see your reasoning, but at the same time they already have the raids done and ready to go, just take off some mechs and create a “easy mode” in the raid tab, shouldn’t be that difficult to them.

Most people will also complain about brelshaza, the last gates are insane and there is almost no reward, they just need to understand that. just do what you can.
very ignorant of you to assume that “just do this it should only take few seconds”
you are literally just condescending demeaning all the work and effort on patches since it should be just few clicks to tune things
Exactly. Gate 1 of Brel alone gives the most gold out of the 6 gates. Smilegate does consider the “casuals” but you still gotta work for your rewards

easy mode where u get exactly 1 of everything, but there are no mechs that wipes you,also no auction after raid just personal loot, sounds good for hardcore casuals no?
The problem with this:
-Why are people that don’t do raid concerned about legion raid level upgrades? To do what? The only thing I can think of is future legion raids because you certainly don’t need it for side content/story content/horizontal content/events/pvp/etc.
-With the above in mind, the only reason to need the above is in order for people to get into the next legion while not improving in gameplay through playing the prior. Thats a big cost to the average player base that will have to deal with these people who have easy moded and also want to try new content at a normal level.
-If the argument is to just experience the raid, this is solved by suggesting that something like rehearsal mode is implemented, potentially with gear equalization and gear that cannot be used as a method to unlock future normal content. However the suggestion of the current solution and to be able to unlock normal gear that can access everything else seems a bit disingenuous
