Not sure if this is the right place, but I think it would be nice to have an open forum for people to discuss their opinions of the 3.0 patch (good and bad). I love the idea of the hard mode, but I think most will agree that it is closer to impossible than hard : . Being that I cannot get item drops in a normal server anymore (level 41), I play only in hardcore, but I can't get past the second wave, so obtaining materials has become all but impossible. Never got a chance to get any cool drops from knights and above (killed 150+ of the suckers) and now fighting them has no appeal, yet hardcore is pretty much running at a brick wall and then getting up to do the same thing every 60 seconds. I get the feeling that most level 39+ players don't really know what to do now, except maybe play normal mode to level up the rest of the way, but hardcore mode is pretty inaccessible right now. The new implementations have a lot of good potential, however, and I like the new enemy types aside from them being extremely OP and numerous.
