Dear SE ,

Can you please raise the level of the Mobs in Besieged they are really too weak and many players has abused it by using temp item Sprinter's Drink to fly like a superman to reach broken top wall that lead to the mobs area before the city door open by itself .... many players can't even see the mob's face and the enemy leader have been killed ... Besieged is all about players teamwork to defeat the enemy from invading ...Now this game has been destroy by egoist players that think they are very strong but in facts it's is the mobs that are very weak ....some even can use program to go thru the wall .

I strongly think it is time to raise the mobs level till no players can solo it and bring back the fun and enjoyment for defending Al Zahbi .

Not sure if serious or trolling.

Besieged is nothing more than a chore to finish the monthly AMAN trove, literally a waste of time. Nobody does it with the intention of enjoying it or showing off, no idea how you came to that conclusion. It's just another *zone 4x* for your monthly. Outdated content, shouldn't even exist as an AMAN requirement.

Also, takes too damn long for them to walk (it's 2020 and they are still walking...) From their lairs to the city. More time wasted.

I do wish they raised the level to 119, and added various rewards/content. Add new bonuses/rewards for having the Astral Candy in town (even if it doesnt make sense).

But it's pretty much dead.

Do I want Domaine Invasion V2?


It's better than having nothing.

I'm confused, why don't you just do this too? Where is the actual abuse.....

The hell you need a Sprinter's for? Just walk there normally and you'll get there before the stuff dies either way lmao.

You could also just cast a buff or use a buffing item and instantly get credit for participation anyway.

You're clearly not on Asura lol. The mobs die before I've ever seen them. Have just do what Zidaner said to have a chance...

Back when it first came out I used to love Besieged. Even now I'll join it if I notice it's about to happen. But like many things in the modern game, the lack of challenge and reward makes it feel more like a chore than a satisfying experience. 10,000 EXP and ISP were a big deal when monsters only gave 100xp per kill that took a minute each.

Nowadays where players can earn upwards of 1M experience per hour, Besieged feels like a waste of time, regardless of how much you enjoy it.

If they bumped up the rewards to even a fraction of that now, it might at least give Besieged aficionados some reason to play. Increase the experience earned or even reward participants with some kind of weakened version of Maat's Mix that gives +1JP when consumed or something. Do that, plus either impose a Lv.75 cap or make the monsters a bit tougher and it could be really fun again.

EDIT: Don't give it crazy exclusive rewards that make it feel mandatory to play, just make it less of a waste of time. At least then people can look forward to it if they're bored.
