Uh, no.

People were doing UW far before most gimmick builds rolled about, and they were doing just fine.


It's not impossible. It's just harder. Coordination is key, and if one person slips up, generally it can be a fatal mistake.

People I know have done it balanced and with pugs.

Maybe you could help communicate and support other players with their builds?

lol... It is impossible with a balanced build? Please... not even close. If anything, with a group of good players, it is easier with a balanced team.

This thread doesn't serve much of a purpose... other than you complaining that if SF and the like are nerfed, you won't be able to complete UW because you lack the skill, understanding, or both to finish it.

I do stuff like that with my guildies and my alliancemates. Nothing in this game is serious for me. Sure, I'd like to get through UW as fast as possible, but if I can get through with a laugh and a joke, that's great. Hell, most of the times we're cracking jokes and making fun of glitching enemies or each other.

If we fail, so what. Just a little time wasted. It's not like the world is crashing down.


It's not impossible with a balanced team. It's a whole hell of a lot faster with a gimmick, but that doesn't mean the former is anywhere near impossible.

Try doing it with guildies and friends instead of PUGS. That might be your problem right there.

If you can't manage UW either you or your team are. If the former, get better. If the latter, get a guild.

Go for it.
I'm glad someone other than myself can enjoy my responses.

I recon gw has a good balance of difficulty.

Some areas are a walkover even when your solo
Others need a party be it real or ai well a party or a farming build.
Then there are the elite areas.

I don't do the underworld much but its by no means impossible to do just harder and more prone to failure.
They created consumables to make it easier and hard mode to make it all harder so what's the problem.

Every game like this should have parts that are too tough unless your good and or lucky.
I used to think the Southern Shiverpeaks were impossible some years back.
Then I reached the fire Islands which took me some time to master.
Not to mention the end areas of NF which still give me a few problems unless I am with a good party.

I don't like the term Noob but after 4 years I have to admit to being an underworld noob but I am sure if I was still willing to put in the time and effort into it I could master it.

No problem.



As you can see, there's a distinct lack of A/Es. You'll have to take my word that the two A/Ws are not using SF though.
