Too many Elite mobs ingame..

I really like the amount of elites/strongs. Heck I could even ask for more.

My character is squishy and not exceptionally geared right now, so elites pose a good challenge. My companion usually dies and I'm left blowing a couple cooldowns to win. But it's always a good feeling knowing I've got a chance of dying.

Back in WoW (sorry to bring it up) there weren't nearly as many "strongs" (hardly any, actually) and blowing through trash is just more boring.

In Vanilla, there was.

Like the Island off the Coast of Hillsbrad... That used be something that all Noobish Explorers bumbled into, INSTA DEATH FOOL!

You wouldn't even get on the island and if you were still questing in Hillsbrad you were quite lowish Level (Especially if you were Horde). The Mobs would aggro to you before you even realised there was any mobs on the Island.

Does anyone else get frustrated by the stupidity of MMOs forums?

I swear to god, I try not to troll, but really?! Is the OP serious?!

I honestly think he/she is completely serious and it scares me a little...

My problem with the elites is that most of the time they are not really hard but just takes ages to beat down.
Most of the time they just have one attack you have to interrupt and aside from that you just have to fight them for several minutes.
Thats not really fun in my opinion. I would have no problems with hard mobs where you have to move and think to kill them but most elites just have a truckload of hitpoints and not much more. It gets boring after some time.

I generally play with my (Tank) and dps (Kira) companion and its far faster than using a healer companion able to kill anything in solo content with this setup upto and including Ilum. (Very few challenges tbh)

As to original post, i do not want the game to be made more easy. It is really trivial most of the time as it is, provided you can grasp how to play your class (I can say this for most classes having played them all to some extent, they all have a few tricks up their sleeves for more difficult fights) And sometimes it just requires switching your favourite companion for a fight or two.

This.

Know your companions like you know your class.

There were, the original vanilla and first TBC mobs were all pretty hard-hitting. Which is also the thing which the strong mobs instantly reminded me of.

Someone misses his single player cheat codes.

And if you don't have any CC?
