Easy Mode Season 3 (All Season 3 content except raids) came with KR's Season 3 Chapter 2, Ep 3. It will be awhile before we get that content.

Great, so basically players will get EM for the content they need the least amount of help with..../sigh. The thing that really baffles me is how DevCat manages to make each season run significantly worse than the last from a performance standpoint, shouldn't it be the other way around? I guess if nothing else, it teaches us how much nonsense a player will put up with for a great combat system / dress up simulator - a lot apparently.

If it's a performance issue just use multiprocessing it divides CPU load amongst party members. Only catch is that you need strong internet for it to run smoothly.

That should be the solution...but certainly for me and a lot of other people I've seen use Multi in a real party (it seems to work fine while solo), the option immediately starts causing crashing and loading issues which just makes 'trains' a nightmare to do and even single runs can be problematic.

I've hosted S1 and S2 on a regular basis without issues, but S3 is awful. I can't imagine how bad it must be for someone with worse hardware/internet to try and do these (I'm sure dogging 'red attacks' at 1 fps must be fun...).

While the Neamhain ATT requirement isn't something that I would personally call 'easy', I suppose it is do-able (or at least something you could reach with soaps + ap shop items if you really want to hit it [never mind about the soaps, apparently they don't work...] ), and I don't mind that the fight itself isn't something you can bulldoze though with GGs / Merc Pots, the part that actually bothers me is the DEF requirement.

I was playing around with Shippu's gear builder and to get 14/15k DEF I guess you have to have Plate/Heavy armor (correct me if I'm wrong on that). I tried maxing out Terminus (I even 'downgraded' some scrolls to help out with DEF) with full enchants, maxed out materials, and +DEF infusions on everything and it still didn't hit 14k...Which is kind of dis-heartening for people that don't have time to make even one set of 'ultra-maxed' gear, yet alone now learn they picked 'the wrong set' from a time before this content existed.

Ultimately though, I suppose this is here to appease the 'max players' and this does do that. I suppose like most I'll just end up waiting for '95 stuff' to come out then head back to this.
