Tone them down. Not all characters have the aoe potential to handle such insane density when status is frenzied. I am a ranged rogue and i am getting incredibly frustrated dying to attrition.
Edit - they have reduced ND to one negative suffix and it is much easier to get gear there and do the tides later. I got a couple of upgrades and things are looking much better. Not how it would be at 100 with the new elixir. Interesting times.
It’s a skill gap for sure
I agree with the OP. There’s density, and then there is Tokyo.
I say double the amount of demons.
keep it dense, it makes me feel like I have friends
To be fair, i just continued my lvl 74 toon with crappy gear from season 3. I just wanted to farm not to engage some kind of uber content. My suggestion, now that I’ve experimented a bit, is to make the hell marked mechanic optional - you talk to an npc and you are hellmarked ala pvp bloodmarked. If hellmarked you get to fill the gauge, and if not you just get the ordinary helltides without the giga spawns that put grimarillion to shame. Ffs!
Helltide has never been more fun. If you can’t take the heat go to a lower tier or level up some more doing other things.
Strong disagree; you may think differently once you adapt to all of the changes and upgrade gear.
I dont wish to log out immediately upon entering/fall asleep during helltides now, and i havent upgraded a thing.
Just put on some Eurobeats and you be drifting through those hellions in no time!

Kindly try a ranged rogue before speaking, No , its not a skill issue, its a design oversight dialed up to 11. My skills have resource costs and cooldowns and are not meant to face 11 elites with 3+ affixes and 99999 trash mobs that jump, charge, teleport on me, explode and what no, Just no. Yeah i can play another class and I probably will.
There are some one shots going on in there for sure
From the Blood Maiden? People are standing too close when she fires her mortars, so it’s less a one-shot and more people standing in fire.
I played enough MMO’s to know exactly what to do as soon as I had my first encounter. Circles under feet, keep moving and do not stack with other players, take it out of group. Big mortar = big ouch, gtfo asap. Elite adds spawn, forget boss and focus adds.
I played a ranged rogue in PTR for this season and with the new tempers it was clearing better than any of my previous seasons characters, rivalling my finished lightning storm druid from S3. Entire screens gone instantly while spinning around in circles and moving on.
Helltides need to be tuned to be harder
Its insanely easy to mindlessly kill things with just about any competent build
Skill issue, game is undertuned bad.
Kindly upgrade it to a version that befits this patch, then try again? I never said skill issue, i understand completely selecting a spec for the way it plays, and not its effectivity in a fight. I play a conjure sorc on eternal server since before season 1, i know what its like to struggle with damage or against certain enemies.
Found the people who take all the generator talents.
Helltide finally feels threatening. Leave it be
I find i cant have a break they just keep coming 3
