alt nur shouldn't be far easier than regular nur

#1 Post by Zeyphor »

alt nur is just too easy these days compared to regular nur
in regular nur, you've got stuff like nightmare horrors, dreaming horrors, worms that walk, fearful symmetries, bursting entropic shards, nethergates, giant netherworms(which are mostly just annoying), and packs of luminous and radiant horrors
but in alt nur, the worst there is are abyssal horrors and boiling horrors; entrenched horrors and swarm hives are barely even scary, while ravenous horrors get enough bang for their buck as it is

what alt nur needs is to be harder; id say that swarming horrors(not hives) and entrenched horrors should be buffed, and that there should be an elite version of boiling horrors that additionally has more hp and cleansing flames and wildfire and fire storm and some other stuff that burns you to ashes
also, I guess maelstroms could stand to spawn down there too if they didn't already

however, if you enter level 3 of the lake of nur when you're at level 14, before elite mobs can spawn, then they're both of about the same difficulty; the issue is when you're at a higher level and the tough guys can spawn
