Say you applied for your dream job at the factory of waifus called DevCat and were somehow accepted despite not knowing s**t about programming. On the very first day DOL approaches you, shakes your hand firmly and with a cheerful smile charges you with the most paramount of tasks: FIX MAI GAEM AND BRING UZ MOAR PROFITS MY DEAR WAIFU LOVER. As he turns around and disappears behind the doors covered with posters of Arisha in the latest swimsuit from some famous Korean fashion designer smiling at you seductively. As you look at your new workplace you begin to shiver. Strange hotness floods your entire body, your palms become sweaty. As you sit in front of the PC your knees become weak, arms heavy.
The first thing that greets you is the wallpaper that plants certain uneasiness in your mind. Gallagher seems to be running away, his face covered in terror. The chaser, Nyle, is sporting his usual robe but he's holding something that casts rather lengthy shadow. He's smiling, but not just smiling. It's a devilish smile, the type of smile that announces some lustful yet dark intentions. You quickly load up the first editing program you see on the desktop. 'DevcatEditor95.exe'. Relief. The treacherous sight is gone. You can now peacefully begin your first day in new dream job. You glance again at the poster on the door. You know you shouldn't in new workplace. You can't succumb now despite that look Arisha is sending you. You can't fail your new Senpai. With a firm grip you grab the mouse and load up Vindi.exe in the editor. The time is now. You must fix the game so others will find it fun again. You hover over the options and...
The outcome of possible Part 2 will be determined by the winning option in a week from the time of posting.
It's also clear you haven't done a Nifl raid since the update, if sub 90 players with generic 80 (or even 70) gear join they will be nothing but dead weight, because the 80 gear gives something like 16-17k max, and players are unlikely to invest heavily to upgrade it. These bosses are tanky af, the need people reasonably geared, or at least 20k+, players to be able to keep the raid fun and not a 20-30 minute slog, you even risk running out of time if you're trying to carry 3 sub level 90s.
The HP doesn't scale anymore, it's set to 4 man party by default. Unless you can't solo it within reasonable time, the run won't be any longer with dead weights left and right.
You can:
- set the minimum BAL/CRIT requirements when creating the boat,
- kick those so-called noobs while in the dungeon (yes, this option exists),
- restart the boat since they'll most likely burn through the three chances somewhere between 1st bar and 1st bar. You're not losing much anyway,
- I ran out of possibilities but surely there are more.
