What's the point of PD apart from drops and the odd chance of meeting a golem (slim to none for me).

WS is far more rewarding in terms of grind, even at lvl 75. Easy to gather mobs, easy to kill and the exp is slightly better. Only thing lacking in WS over PD is drops.

Can you make exp for PD more rewarding. Or better still make exp for all mobs in the game more rewarding.

Here are the results:

For my lvl 66 Tank:

Premium Dungeon

• PD Level 60 Mob: 8.3K EXP + 227 Lant
• PD Level 66 Mob: 13.7K EXP + 456 Lant
• PD Level 80 Mob: 16.5K EXP + 621 Lant

Dungeons

• SL Level 56 Mob: 15.7K EXP + 529 Lant
• WS Level 66 Mob: 27.5K EXP + 726Lant
  

Best place for farming lant and exp for my tank is WS it would have been SL if it wasn't for bosses as I can take on a lot more and kill a lot faster.


For my level 76 Tempest:
Premium Dungeon Level 80 Mobs: 15.7KEXP + 565Lant
Wrecked Ship Level 66 Mobs: 19.2K EXP + 613 Lant (Drops don't always occur unless HH is on or you have 100% Drop item)

Best place for exp is without a doubt WS for my tempest. As for lant drop it is still WS even with low drop rate as I can take on 8 at a time and sleep them and kill them very fast. In PD, I can't sleep them and theyt hit damn hard and longer to kill.

As you can see PD is worthless by comparison unless you can get the odd Event golem. but you can do ten runs without seeing one. PD for me is only only useful for Carus farming even though success rate of find level 85 Event Golem is abysmal.

A fix is needed for PD. Ofc you should not lower WS and SL exp and lant as a fix

Thanks

I found PD to be good exp, not been in since mobs got boosted though. WS on lvl 75 sounds crazy.

I dont know how it was before but the exp is about the same for PD and WS in terms of single mob kill. However in WS I can kill them and gather them a lot faster as I can aggro them by just walking past them. PD I have to shoot to aggro and they hit a lot harder and sleep misses on higher levels.

BUMP improve PD exp and rate of event golem. I can spend an hour going round in circle without killing any mobs only to see the event golem once.

yeah

PD Event golem rate seems to increase a lot in HH but even in HH it is much much better to do WS. At 75 each mob I kill in WS nets me 1.5-1.8K Lant and 27K-29K exp. I can kill 8 at a time without difficulty. In PD its pain gather mob, they take longer time to kill and they hit a lot harder.

In HH you can try to hunt Alban Event golem but still, better to grind in WS. Within 8min I can clear WS. I actually tested this enough times.

Improve PD by improving exp from mobs and drop rate and also make them easier to aggro.
