2.0 Hardmode Flashpoints are not worth the payout.

c) For those ppl that think they dont drop enough loot ... think what lvl 50 FPs use to give you

So its been a week of doing these new hardmodes and without question they need to be fixed. The cost of repairs, time, and effort level vs the payout is beyond off scale. These are the current problems as i have seen so far. feel free to add what i may have missed.

1. Bosses drops BLUE gear really? And dont hold your breath but a whooping 2 elite tokens . what is the point. If i can craft the level of gear given is too low.

2. Boss difficulty levels are set too high, perhaps they were set for pts when we all had full gear but no one does now, for example the wookie in cademimu spawns so many death trolls so fast it is near impossible to beat. the heat beam in hammer station cause so many wipes everyone quit. Both times i got que no we did not make it past the first boss.

3. Repair cost are tooo high to make the 10k payout at the end worth anything. The last run caused 5 wipes at a cost of 23k per wipe. so to do this flashpoint and get 0 gear from it i spent over 100k in repairs.

4. The overall payout for the vs the cost of gear per tokens if the gear goes from 80-140 tokens per item the payout is just not worth the repair bills or time.

i love flashpoints but if they cause more stress then fun i do not see any reason to do them at all. Doing a raid has a far better payout with less cost in repairs.

So how in the hell do you get better gear in order to do the new hardmode's to where they not hard????? All of you people who think these new hardmodes saying they are too easy must be in elitist guilds or something. Or don't run in pug groups!

try normal mode, hard means hard, thats not for every noob ...

Just shows me exactly how people are when they respond on the forums. People who want to yell out get basic comm's must also know that is requires so many of them per piece of gear. So why go backwards to go forwards?

LOL at this thread

a) For all those ppl that think 55 HMs are too hard ... learn to play

b) For all those ppl that think 55 HMS are too easy ... good on you

c) For those ppl that think they dont drop enough loot ... think what lvl 50 FPs use to give you

d) (short rant time)

Since this game came out F2P I honestly think the IQ of this game dropped several points. To all you ppl that want EVERYTHING handed to you on a silver platter ... go play another game ... I'm a person who likes work for my gear, to play a game to have fun. So to say I was a little upset when 2.0 came out and my hard earned full set of dread guard gear became useless, but in finding there is more gear to work for I was fine ... Then you slackers have the audacity to say that your not getting your gear on a silver platter is kinda disheartening.

totally agree, while I haven't been in one I actually enjoyed the very first instance of lost isle.
hard is supposed to be hard.

and I also agree on the IQ drop. Huttball makes this very apparent. Ever since F2P launched the number of 0:0 games with the team winning holding the ball in the end increased, because ppl just bang their heads instead of playing the game.
