Bumped my difficulty up for the first time...

...that wasn't at the behest of a team doing my missions.

I'm usually content to play on Heroic solo. Indeed, with some of my characters I wish I could go a bit lower than that due to danger and/or the time it takes to chew through HPs. Heck, even on other video games I almost always go for the easiest setting.

Recently, while playing my DM/SR scrapper who'd just hit 24 or so, I was surprised to find myself bumping it up to Rugged. And even more surprised to find that even at that setting it hasn't been that difficult or tedious. A stark contrast to most other characters I play. Even the MA/Regen Scrapper I've had for some time.

I feel like someone's been keeping this secret from me, somehow, and not at all like I've been utterly oblivious to all the signs and portents.

Scrapper -is- the easiest difficulty setting

There's a difficulty aside from Unyielding?

What is this "difficulty setting" thing you speak of ?

Minimum level : 54
Maximum level : 54

Scrappers can play on heroic? I always thought 'invincible' was hard-coded into the AT ;p

Seriously, though...DM/SR is nigh untouchable, the only mobs that got me to slow down a fraction were DE and the Eye-Tyrants in the Shard.

anyway, enjoy the ride ;p

Nemesis can be a pain too if there's enough of them to start stacking up vengeance.

Challenge 5 or 4 if its an AV mission I'm not outfitted for. Heroic is for those, "ok, let me hurry up and get this over with so I can do something else." By the time you hit 35, you'll raise the diff again. It may even happen sooner.

i always sell off the insp's from tutorial and play on invin/relentless (challenge lvl 5) from level 2 on up, reguardless of AT,... and i still find it too easy for scrappers (and brutes, and MMs), though a decent challenge for squishy ATs, and useually just tedious for tankers,... not to mention the level ups seem to happen too fast most of the time,... though i'm more the type that enjoys the challenge and likes story content
