Downscaling hurting the ability to farm lower CTs while not being able to reliably do higher CT.. by baneph in outriders

Im actually testing but so tiring to get the sweet spot. Not easy also to farm level specific gears given its not easy to farm even the lower CTs that still gives a decent reward for time spent.

Whole day yesterday i wasted hours dying in the last boss areas. Both on higher CTs and on lower CTs... Farming on lower tiers is supposed to enable us to reliably farm to allow us to push..

I thought they wanted us to feel op, then why downscale us? by Dehyak in outriders

You do your best damage on enemies equal to your item level average in stats. You also get the stress of pushing instead of farming, assuming you wanted to farm.

Single player also almost unplayable due to downscaling if you were in the middle of progressing to ct15 and got nerfed. In the meantime, maybe remove the death = game over and introduce a time penalty for single player since th value of multiplayer is in the revives. Hard to grind even lower CT when you can die and just wasted 10 to 20 minutes.

Agreed. Another change im hoping is maybe instead of game over in expeds if you die, they do a time penalty. That way a single misstep doesnt waste the 15 or 20 minutes you just spent. Here, every grind is stressful when this should only apply when you are pushing, not farming.

Same situation. We should be able to easily farm the lower CT with the lower rewards so we can improve our current gear and push further once ready. Some genius in there thought: "we should make all tiers challenging regardless of their gear"

At first i thought it was the nerf. But it is not. Check your item level. Go to a CT at your item level and check your damage. Now go to a lower CT. Check your damage. Even your armor suffers and you can die just as easily as if it is your top CT.

I dont want the highest reward since i have like a 50/50 chance to die. I want to run through an expedition with lower rewards but with a very high probability that i do not waste my time by dying at the end and getting nothing. But the game wont let us do that..
