I have 1k hours and still haven't cleared nVHilla, cSlime, hLucid, etc. Hate the bossing. It's so crazy to me that this game expects people to fight a boss for 30+ minutes to possibly die and do it all over. I'm hopeful one day the bossing will be made more approachable/enjoyable to those who haven't been playing for close to decade. It's just a shame because the visuals/gameplay in this game are so good. They will be reducing the bosses health by half or something in a coming update so by CW4 it shouldn't hurt so much to boss. Game is fun for grinding mobs though, I'm level 286 on my main from just mobbing. Until they fix the bossing and its direct tie to progression in this game I only recommend people play during the challenger worlds. I don't recommend fighting any boss beyond nGloom if you enjoy your sanity. I'll adjust the review should they ever get around to fixing this torture chamber. I don't want to hear any of the cope the stockholm syndrome players in this game like to spew about the difficulty. No I don't want to read a spreadsheet to fight a boss. No I don't want to practice the fight for hours upon hours. No I don't want to pop 15 buffs to attempt to min clear. It's just pure suffering. Starting out in this game might be one of the biggest problems the game has. Even if you choose to do it during a Hyperburn. You will be trying to manage 15 confusing menus and you will miss a lot. You will not be as strong as 95% of those around you. The only reason I made it through that initial learning process was because I absolutely love the way this game looks and plays. If that does not sound appealing to you then take a look at Maple classic world. It will be confusing too but it's 100x less content and designed for slower gameplay. Again, I love the games aesthetics/gameplay. I love the class diversity and I love Lotus. I will not stop playing any time soon, but I will never be "Optimal". I'll try making one of the TMS classes for CW4 and see how much easier the bossing is. I expect to reach 9k legion by CW10 maybe, so there's that. P.S. This game really wants all of your money.
