Lack of hard content is making the game somewhat boring
Post Body

Nearly 2 years ago, when we started FFBE this game was somewhat hard. It was really fun to play because content get harder every week, and all of us wanted to be strong enough in order to handle it. Game had a difficulty more than acceptable (even for dolphins and whalles) but recently the difficulty suddenly drop.

I want to list a few things and trying to point what may be the problem.

  • 8 months ago (acording to temporamoras megathread) the rumble of malboro was released. I felt very proud of myself being able to beat it on day 1. In fact, I did the first guide on this subreddit giving my point of view of how to handle the fight. There were lot of rage during those times because of the hard difficulty of the trial, but eventually power creep did it work. Now we have post beating it in 2 turns or even without 5* base/TMR

  • 7 months ago: (taking into consideration halloween date) skeleton king was released. It was a hard boss because of two reasons: high cost of NRG and RNG based mechanics. It was the last challenging fight. People complained a lot, and they decided to nerf it making the fight a joke. It was the first and last nightmare boss we had in global.

After that, game started to move super slow and the lack of content started to being boring. Trials appear in a very slow rate in order to being weak because of power creep. Let´s check how many trials we have after skelton king:

Chamber of arms: released 216 days ago according to wiki. 2 bosses (sheratan and elnath) = 1 trial per 3 months and a half. Expected time: one per month or month and a half

Chamber of the fallen:

  • Wicked moon: 5 months ago according to defianhermit megathread
  • Glacial: 4 months ago according to Natza megathread
  • Elafikeras: nearly 2 months ago according to defianhermit megathread
  • Scorn of the white dragon: uncompleted set of trials (japan got the 3 bosses at the same time). This fight was the easiest and the least rewarding. Global considered it as a full trial.
  • We got a trial every 2 months, and an incomplete trial las week. News today show us there is no second part of the set of pending bosses.

As we can see, if we keep following this slow rate of bosses we are going to have 7* units before the last pending boss of chamber of the fallen and probably the 4th 10 man trial. The impact of powercreep will make all these fights a totally joke. They used to buff some bosses in order to fit them to power creep (like gilgamesh) but that is a thing of the past.

What can they do in order to improve the experience?

  • Release a trial every 15 days (one 10 man trial and one chamber of the fallen per month)
  • Releasing a new tier of colliseum (they added hard mode more than a year ago and then forgotten to oblivion)
  • Releasing nightmare mode again, maybe without any prize (true nightmare, not nerfed nightmare). We are having a re run of an event as a main event (again) but with the same difficult...
  • Releasing the tower they "promised" during april´s fool: it really pissed me off that they know we want it but they closest thing we had was a joke.

I would like to hear your opinion about all this. I think I am not the only one that are somewhat angry because of all these things.

Thanks for reading and sorry for my bad english. I´ll edit as soon as I find a mistake :)
