Do you feel your group was able to progress in power through the Operation? Yes, slowly.
Do you think improvements could be made to make it easier to progress as a group? If so, what do these improvements look like? Yes. Seeing a rebalance to the IP-CPT HM fight would be great and I would be happy if it were prioritized. Rebalancing would help those of us who are working on R4 HM get to the later bosses quicker each week, and it would help bring more players into R4-HM who might be dissuaded by the first boss's difficulty now. I personally believe that the entire group makeup should not have to change for one fight. This slows down progression in multiple ways: multiple people have to play different classes and roles that they are not used to. Players then have to leave the operation (and face a likely game crash on the loading screen) to swap to their main role after the boss is down. I would love to see some bug fixes as well, because they also slow down progression. Fixing zombie frames, dealing with loading screen crashes, the IP-CPT doorway being aggro-able, and the ad during the Lord Kanoth fight all cause small issues that add up.
Did you want to upgrade your Hazardous gear? Yes
How quickly were you able to upgrade your Hazardous gear? Very slowly because of the first boss causing such a bottleneck every week.
Was Hazardous gear helpful in completing The R-4 Anomaly? Yes
Do you like the look of these armor sets? Sorry, no. They are certainly on-theme for the operation, but not my cup of tea.
Did you attempt to clear The R-4 Anomaly to earn these armor sets? For that purpose? No.
Is there anything you’d like to see from future Operations armors? I would like to see blue and purple mods from Hyde and Zeek for 340. I understand why that is not currently a feature, but I would expect it in the future.
Do you like the look of this mount? Very much.
Did you attempt to clear The R-4 Anomaly to earn this mount? Yes, but I don't really expect to ever get one.
Is there anything you’d like to see from future Operations mounts? One per operation would be great, that's it. Maybe... a 10% drop chance?
