I don't think it is. On R1 damage gets cut down by around 24%, mob damage is increased by around 20%, and self healing is cut down by 60% or so. Minimal reaper ap is not recouping 20% damage, 20% damage reduction, nor the 60% of the self heals.


I've always believed EE was easier as well, but friends who stick to the "R1 is easier" stand state that the extra hitpoints just give an extra buffer that make them feel safer.  You can get a pretty substantial hitpoint boost from 21 points in Grim Barricade, so that might qualify for "a minimal number of reaper points".

Myself, when i do quests R/E/H/N, Elite just feels easier.

I think that people who group more than solo also feel like R1 is easier because they normally aren't stuck healing themselves after fights and 20% slower kills doesn't matter much when the group is killing stuff in a couple seconds anyway.

The more HP matters a lot more in heroics than epics.   EE is not the same as E.   

R1 is not easier in epics, imo.

Dude...


My condolences, I suggest you take a break and come back in a few weeks with your head clear. In the meantime you don't need to trash the Devs or beat yourself up about a game buddy, you may have just been having a bad day or been distracted by more important things RL, it happens to the best of them. And remember that sometimes we all lose a step and fall off the bleeding edge of performance, luckily that's what strategy and turn-based games are there for, old guys like us! Smiley

Only dumb fucks with shitty builds and hungreds of reaper points say r1 is easier. The only reason of it - they have shitty dc, saves and/or hp so just cant survive encounters and traps on EE/E. R1 is slower, r1 filled by plague reapers which are tougher than quest bosses nowdays, r1 contain stronger champs, dps debuff, mob saves against spells and self healing penality. I dont see what to discuss about there, its common info.

Op, when you played melee last time? Smiley After almost year not playing melee dps I found my kensai life recently hard also. Even died few times in freaking r3 ttt on lvl 27. Yet I wouldnt say they changed anything but hp of reapers, and its not the biggest trouble. Epics always used to be rough. Thats why you build melee with some cc to deal with champs or at least using meld. And, say, in lvl 20-22 quests champs always were hitting for 1500+ damage before prr on ee. Doublestrike champs just insanly painful because of it...

You might be retarded. Although I believe R1 is easier than EE, I know and have played with Rzy. While playing with him, he was always getting to cap and reincarnating, and rolling with him through level made it a cake walk. He was in guild with some of the best, including Sym, so maybe figure out who the fuck you are talking to before you start running your mouth, because I'm pretty sure you don't hold a candle to Rzy.

BTW, he is Russian, and he still makes more sense in English than you do. Get over yourself bitch.

Gospel. People who say reaper is easier it's because they get a false sense of security from reap enchantments. It's like someone who plays elite playing on casual all of a sudden.

Just remove their reaper points and they will crawl back on EE, in a group, cause they can't even solo it.

Simple numbers show that the reaper debuffs on just R1 outpace any amount of reaper ap. The entirety of the reaper offense and defense trees do not negate the penalties.

4 to damage, 5 damage modifier, 24 mp/rp is less than the damage buff.
The only benefit is when having up to 2 thousand hit points beats the 20% damage increase and the 60% heal reduction doesn't get levied as much. It can take you out of what would have been one shot on elite and make it 2 shots.

Op, when you played melee last time?


All of maybe two months ago.  I'm noticing a lot of little buffs to both monsters and traps all the way around since the big update (when I basically took a short - possibly about to become an extended - break).

As far as my build goes - I can (could at least) solo everything on R1 at or under level: up to and including all the Stormhorns quests at level 26-27 (well before getting the good end game gear) and (more recently) the RL chain.

EE is what I run for multiple TRs for speed when I want to blast through for saga rewards and don't care about picking up a whole extra 25-50 reaper XP per quest.  Which is why it was shocking to me to get killed by a group of shadows in Wheloon.  Usually about the only thing in that chain that can actually touch this build is the boss fight at the end of Hunt.

Well, shrugs. It maybe you're right, but I cant confirm. On the damage taken from monsters and traps I feel like nothing changed. Just after this kensai life I decided to go back to my wizard, sorc, warlock and ranged builds to just speed up racials and epic pastlifes farm.

I totally noticed spell saves. On r1 mobs just getting net +5 against spells, and on suboptimal DC builds it hurts a lot, say, on  elf sorc at lvl 20 with ~60 hold DC I fail it ~50% of time on r1.

Oh the other reason I felt bad on kensai is that I tested out reworked fotw, so lost 30 prr and couldnt slot meld. In DPS terms tree felt actually okayish but way too squishy for non-barbarian.

nowdays you get full rxp if run quest at bb. Same for epics. So can run wheloon\storm horns with anyone lvl 20-30 on any skull and take full rxp. Last several lifes ran it on r4-7. I totally dont need it (in farm terms legendary r5-10 still way better), but it made some sense to raise skulls while leveling + can help other people to get just some rxp.

My best toon has only 10 reaper points.

While I can solo R1, I do it with more difficulty than soloing EE.

Why? Reaper damage penalty and reaper healing penalty.
