VS is easy, should be first or second pull every time once you know how he works.

He's far from unkillable, true we've had trouble since the changes but he's hardly unkillable, just really hard (and some parts of the fight like the statue clicker, are dumb).

So, Pinski agrees, punished for having good gear, he just has to be the e-hardass in the thread. Got it.
I didn't mention the other parts of the fight, because while they're dumb, I'm not a statue clicker. But yes, clicking statues is dumb.
The entire fight is dumb. I'm aware of how easy it is once you learn it. I'm just saying its a stupid fight. I don't like the tank and dps standard fights either, but being punished for your power going too high or too low is retarded. I'm not a game designer, but I know what isn't fun. Venril Sathir isn't fun. I'm glad its not in the flagging rotation any more.

So, everything have to be fun? Some people actually want a challenge sometimes (this is not hard, but unique, so I like it).

What is fun is also figuring out this stuff.

Kall

I actually like the Venril fight, although getting there is a huge waste of time. It's a fight where you can pretty easily distinguish who sucks and who doesn't from the curing and amount of DPS people do while under specific limitations.

Laalon

Serious question....What type of encounters DO you like? You don't like the tank/spank encounters, nor do u like it if they have a power requirement (high or low). So what would u rather do?

Yeah but after realizing the EQ2 endgame raid scene is gay after pull #1, half your raid logs and you are left 2 grouping him....

Yes, because having to pay attention to what your doing and what effects are on you is stupid, and just mindlessly tank and spank is stupid, so like, whats left? Obviously you just do'nt like the game, are pissed off that there is somewhat of a death penalty, and you should just move on. Yes, losing one person outta the fight to click statues is dumb, and it really sucks to be said person, and they shouldn't be using that kinda shit, but there is nothign wrong with the power range portion of the fight. Stop bitching that you actually have to play for one fight instead of turning your max burn bot on to raid for you.

You guys who are missing my point are completely retarded.

The encounter is fucking stupid. The entire thing from the first second you pull him is stupid.

Other encounters in the game are stupid, but they're stupid in a different "this is too easy" way. They aren't stupid in the "this makes me want to smash my computer" way.

Pinski

No, Venril isn't this makes me want to smash my computer, Growth is this makes me want to smash my computer.

Venril is easy and not even difficult or really hard to manage. Growth is just dumb.
