time for some Descent QQ

please down-tone Tomb Of Statues, by making less mobs spawn per room.

seriously, the boss isn't even half as hard as a pack of 2 Auric Champions and 4 Auric Archers standing behind them. and that happened literally in every room I entered.

and it takes forever to kill those bastards (even if not standing in a pool of ice), which means precious time lost in the race.
oh, and I didn't mention at least 10 "almost died" situations.

was great fun though, and I beat my own level 9 record despite dying twice earlier.

awesome race this is :)

IMO the zone just after is far more difficult

I agree, it feels like these two zones are a tiny bit overtuned.

Still my favorite race so far.

it's not about difficulty as much as it is about mob density and HP.

the next zone after it (Frozen Abyss) is indeed harder - and has far more "oh shit I nearly died!" moments - but you don't get tanked by huge too-much-life mobs which take forever to kill, and spend literally half the race bogged down in super-slow room-to-room and narrow corridor combat.

I think tanky monsters are a nice change of pace, I just feel they should reward a little more XP and loot than they do now, considering the time you need to invest in fighting them. Unless you have insane DPS for that point in progression, you're going to skip it as much as you can, and likely the next zone too.
