Adventures Companions Updates Now Live

This is them rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic

Please do something to make the mission table usable for Night Fae players who overprogressed their campaign and/or available missions. Both of my characters can not do any of their missions in any combination of companions or troops even missions below my strongest companions level are absolutely impossible to complete … at this point the mission table is a useless anima trash can for me of a form of content that should have been discontinued when the WoD mission tables got out of hand.

So frusturated with the change to Night Fae. I was enjoying doing the table everyday, now I dont even wanna send them out if they cant beat any missions.

Also, why didnt we get a warning this change was coming? People that had lots of missions out are going to get a bunch of failed missions now that should have been won. Wasted anima.

Another thing, since this hotfix was pushed on a Friday, any issues that come up wont be addressed until Monday.

How does a company like Blizzard have such poor testing & planning?? The game director is responsible for all of this and he consistantly does these things.

Regardless you are suggesting some class spec/comps be useless right? So you are not actually for a balanced game at all . Its either yes or no not in between

That’s a very absolutist attitude.

Then I count myself lucky to be on a row boat.

My main Kyrian team are level 47 and I did it on a shoe string chance in hell according to the numbers.

And as such I ought to be able to do a little jig. :slight_smile:

Yup and it took them like only 3 months no big deal :rofl: :rofl:. Pretty sure they are backed up like anything if it took them this long

I’m glad I was able to complete all the mount missions as a Night Fae, although I wish I had known in the first week that XP missions disappeared at a certain progression point. Even before the hotfix it was extremely tedious to level the new companions.

I think every covenant should have a good time and high % success at the table though. Most of the missions I sent out last night that should’ve completed (according to Venture Plan) failed when I got home after work. And now my mid 40’s team can’t even complete level 39 missions! It’s ridiculous. I’m glad the other factions can now access more stuff, but as it stands I don’t even want to waste Anima on missions when I can no longer complete 8 of the 9 available to me.

When a popular add-on that makes the mission table less tedious has to add an actual SUICIDE BUTTON because suicide is part of the table’s design, then that design has absolutely failed in every way.

Unless someone can tell me how it’s going to be “fun” to suicide my “adventurers” for the next few months at a cost of 100+ anima per day.

"Yay, when I log in today I have to go fail my missions for the day! How rewarding! How “meaningful”.

Ya’ll wanna hotfix in the xp missions too? I cheesed my way to level 60 missions, now I can barely complete any of them since I’m having trouble leveling my followers now.

The difference between the two is that the experience missions don’t cost 50 anima and their durations are much shorter, in the 4-8 hour range instead of 12-14. Getting 5 followers ~4500 exp for 20 anima every day is vastly preferable to getting them ~3000 exp for 100 anima every day, especially when they hit level 35 and start requiring 5000+ exp for a level.

Maybe make it so getting a new companion doesn’t lower my troop levels, that’d be great thanks.

I got some pets and ONE mount (and NOT the one I really wanted, either). My table was already at a partial suicide stage after that, and I was having to content myself with “ah well, at least I can send some missions for some mats”. Now I can’t even send those.

I guess the table is now symbolic of Shadowlands as a whole. Log in, smash your head against a brick wall until dead for zero reward, log out.

At the very least, followers granted from high renown, the campaign finale, and the 3rd+ person you save from Torghast should start higher than level 1.

I wouldn’t mind a full reset of the table, even though I do think the current situation is a sort of comeuppance for abuse in a lot of cases.

If they reset the tables and take away all the pets, mounts, toys, glamours and troops back to 1 that is fine.

If you want to keep all your stuff AND get a reset? Hah.

oddly enough i look forward to leveling Bron and Kosmas from 1.

what else is there for me to do?

i am capped in honor. i am capped in conquest. there is no story yet for weeks.

i only play at most 3 hours a day so no raiding for me. not that it matters because with my carpal tunnel i’d be BAD. I mean BAD.

so being an elite general is my time consumption of choice for now. :slight_smile:

Blizzard somehow managed to pick a thing that almost no one liked (mission tables from wod) and make it amazingly worse every single expansion after that and now because apparently they can’t fix something without breaking something else, they just went on and made Night Fae go from best to crap for no apparent reason.
I completely agree that the other covenants needed a buff, no arguing on this, but why break night fae like this?

“Abuse?” How?

Blizzard implemented an overly complicated auto-battler and players did what Blizzard EXPECTS them to do for everything in-game now - they went to Wowhead and elsewhere for tips on how to play.

The table’s design was faulty from the start (and remains so) and that is NOT PLAYERS’ FAULT.

It’s on Blizzard. THEY screwed this up.
