I think all you high level pirates out there agree that the game is WAY to easy. me level 50 friend recently left the game, bc he had no one good to fight. so i made this poll to ask everyone out there if enemy's should have the same health as us. one time i attuned this level 40 ghost, he had only 1700 health. that was my health yes i was level 35. -_-. also, ships are WAY to east to. they should have the same health as us, but they should give more loot, rep and money. i am thinking this would make the game more fun. i think enemy's should have a little more attack, ( like like 70 damage instead of 61) and ships should also so the same.

What do you guys think?
P.S I will send POTCO an email to check this thread out.

If this game was easy, everybody would have all the legendary weapons.

Um, no. I do not think the game is very easy.... I mean, it just depends. You could be a gamer that finds a lot of games easy or someone who is a little lazy and dislikes leveling and quests, and call the game hard. The game is a challenge in some ways because it requires patience for some things such as looting, or long quests. Some find it easy, some find it hard.

My own judgement is a little clouded. My primary pirate has been mastered or nearly mastered for a long time.

When you play as a new pirate, no its not that easy - but I think there is a sliding scale. The first quests were long, drawn out and required effort. However later quests got easier and easier.

Compare Gunner and Carvers quests to Raven's Cove...

How long and sometimes frustrating were they compared to the 1-2 affair of dealing with El Patron?

I do think they should have some tougher enemies in the game but I personally don't think that's the main reason why most people quit playing or just lose interest. I think the real problem is the lack of a 2nd storyline and any real quests to work on.

And no the "side" quests(Ravens Cove) and mini-games do not count I am talking about a real 2nd storyline that will be longer lasting and challenging to everyone including high level pirates.

I do know that there are many mastered pirates(including me) around the Caribbean just waiting for a new storyline and raised levels for both pirate notoriety and enemies.

well, My Kat Wildcastle has been a level 42 or 41 since the level bar was raised, I'm having trouble with the Raven's cove quests.

But yeah it was easy when it was starting out but now its tough for me, but thats just my saying it.

It was tough for the boss battle for the Black Pearl, took me like more then 3 times to complete because 1) the game crashed 2) the group I was with either crashed the Black Pearl or something else with the boat and 3) the boat chased us and we couldn't shot it down

But me working on the quests a lone is tough even though I'm level 41 or something for the Raven's Cove Quests, the defending the traitor ghost alone is tough but its not easy defending it all alone, but I guess its a matter of opinion.

This game IS way too easy..... they need to up the enemies difficulty level up, a lot. This includes the ships too.

by difficulty lvl, I mean how hard it is to kill them and how easy it is for them to kill you.

Currently I am going through the BP story line quest on test... I find it a lot easier then it was the first time I went through on Live a couple years ago. Seems like they have shortened some of the quests a lot. Also, I use to die a lot the first time around which rarely happens any more. One of the things is the new weapons loot drops. You get such killer stuff that nothing can stand up to it even when you are a lower level character. I kind of like it the way it is now although it would be nice if it had more content and if the content was a bit more mystery stuff or something... so that the challenge didnt always fall on kill or be killed but perhaps fell on other character skills

For a mastered pirate it is too easy. But when I play on my level 23 (almost 24 now, but doesn't matter) I find combat difficult. It isn't unusual for me to have to run away from a fight. Its only too easy if you are mastered, or fighting enemies 10+ levels lower than you.

Your perspective of the game's "easiness" is only based on your level and experience if you ask me. The game probably is not very easy.

By the way, I read through my post right here, and I may sound like I'm trying to sound mean. Thats not my intent, just letting you know. I just wanted to state my opinion on the matter.

It's not easy when you are a lower level when fighting and such overall. Also, it is not easy to level up and master.

Okay guys. i think i'm just to high level, or i think that enemy's are to easy. i mean, any level 1 can kill another lvl 1 skeleton bc they have less health than them. but they are new to the game, they don't deserve to be KO when they face ppl there own level. So i have this idea, how about high levels (37-50) enemy's, have the same health as players when 1-36 enemy's have less health. this would make the game funner for high levels, and for low levels to. what do ye think?

No, it's not too easy. I mean, if you are fully mastered you shouldn't expect to be killed all the time, right? My highest level pirate is level 43 and can't pull the South Grave on Raven's Cove without dying. Nor can I do more than one Thrall. The reason you can make multiple pirates is to make the game challenging again after getting mastered. I agree that a new, almost impossible challenge should be added, and all weapons and notoriety caps should be raised, and pirates should be inspired to flock there. But maybe you should find challenges in everything you do in the game, or make a new pirate. Just my two cents.

SVS/Privateering

Now many may disagree but don't you think:

1. Killing enemies on land has gotten old
2. Looting is boring - you kill enemies all day and barely find anything and after you get the loot, theres nothing to do with it
3. Sinking ships on High Seas is old as well which has gotten boring
4. Quests are boring after a while, especially the ones that just give reputation
5. Leveling is OK but after you master 1 or 2 pirates its a waste of time = boring

I think Disney needs to ad more events that groups of friends can COMPETE such as Privateering/SvS and PvP by first fixing all the bugs on them and then adding new stuff.

Leo is right. Player versus Player interactions can never be too easy, because there is always someone who is better than you. Its always a challenge to try to make it to the top, and then have more people challenge you.

However, anything can be fun if you do it with the right people.
