I think the only thing alien needs changed is the turrets. It promotes playing slowly but the turrets don’t let you do that because you’re constantly getting fired on by things that can’t be killed. I’d prefer if you can break the turrets (they have increased hp) and they respawn after 20-40 seconds

From a mobile player perspective the ammount of damage that every single enemy gives is horrible.. 3shots from the minion that drops the axe gets me to half hp.
Before maybe it was too easy but now its too hard so i just avoid them till further changes

I like the thought process, but with the name of the game being play fast, most dungeons are easy to rush with a group and doable to do as a solo with decent gear. I consider myself pretty above average and i struggle with this dungeon on fully maxed chars with bis. The turrets also are already destroyed after you destroy one of the 2 crystals. So this would cause some issues. I think it should lean more to a direction of "rushing" rather than "slow clearing". It would make the dungeon more fun to all players, if it is doable in a reasonable amount of time.

Ehhhh I’d say biggest benefit of the dungeon is slow clearing. Alien axe drops from axe mobs and it is the highest glory / minute dungeon I could find (you can get like 17 glory per minute from clearing)

I see what you mean by that, but you have to also look at players who just want to kill the boss. I personally am in the same boat as you. I like the axe so I slow clear. But the buff made clearing much more difficult, which also made trying to kill the boss as fast as possible really difficult. Ontop of this the dungeon is already massive so playing on most chars you will probably already spend 5minutes just to kill the boss, and longer to full clear. I think it takes to much time and is too tedious

Current time to clear (ignoring full clear) for me has been around 3 min playing carefully, depending on where the intended difficulty level falls I’d agree but it’s certainly not an intermediate dungeon especially given the MUCK loot pools so I honestly think the difficulty is fine

#

The damage the minions deal are in line with winter prison minions, I think at best they nerf how much armor piercing there is since I’m pretty sure the axe minions deal armor piercing damage

my problem still stands that nobody likes the dungeon so it is not run and not fun, at least with prisons you may be able to get a group yk

Lowkey I think it’s just cuz it’s not accessible to new players. It’s rare enough and since no reliable wiki yet, it was kinda hard to figure out what exactly you need to do to clear it

Muck is Damageable before you break the two outposts but he’s hella fast and is clipping thru walls so you kinda know you need to do something but given he’s damageable it’s not intuitive the first few times, and because of how relentless the minions are and the sheer quantity of them in the outposts themselves, I feel like most just avoid it after that fact
