They are not hitting for more then 500 at the absolute most. So is it just in the new madness quests? or is this just separating the older players with a bit of skill and the newer players who cut their teeth during the era of turbine catering to the casual crowd.
Solo, or with a group? Have you done any EH? There might be something to Victor's post (Odd, I know).

Ran around thunderholme for a while, been running around stomhorns. I'm going to call it confirmed: no champions in explorer areas.
I'm sure someone will chime in if I'm wrong.

Here are a couple of pics from this run. The spawn rate seemd about right, 10% or so, and I got 2 extra chests off about 8 chances, orange named, so i did good on that front.
I just let this play out on its own, Estrell the zombie vs some thugs, she won. I took her out and no chest. I did get a chest off a necromancer though and another champion chest after the end fight.
So this is my first time in this room and didn't know what to expect, dots don't fail me now lol.

Some duo, some 3, and 4 man groups. Nothing solo yet. Everything was epic elite. I don't generally do EH.
Maybe there is something going on in EH, or again maybe its just the new madness quests, which I don't own and won't anytime soon.

So I have been spending a lot of time on the motherboards reading the comments on champions.
And then it fucking dawned on me, I have seen all these whiny little bitch comments a lot over the years, not so much lately so it took me a moment.
All the whiny little bitch comments, i got one shot, they have unfair buffs, it's not fair wah fucking wah. ARE EXACTLY WHAT FUCKING PEOPLE SAY IN THE PVP PITS, LOLOLOLOL
Those mother fuckers are lol'ing us so fucking hard right now.
And to make it even fucking worse all the vets are pulling out there uber toons and fucking facerolling EE going just so they can say "meh, your just a n00b deal."
They must have hired the Teh_Troll

Terminal Delirium is a clusterfuck. I even like the champions, but if it's representative of the new Xoriat quests, they haven't got their balancing this wrong since ... Proof is in the Poison. It's not quite Kaizo Mario, but definitely somewhere on that scale.

I haven't read all of the post on the motherboard. So I'm not sure if this has been brought up. It looks like all the invis to the end or stelth mode quest are broken now. Also forget about any quest where you have to protect or escort a npc. I was in madstone and the second seer got one shoted twice. An I'm not going to tell you what happened in redfens.

imho , with some exception of new quests (and havent played heroics w champs yet), those who are crying champs are OP are same people use to hold one button and roflstomp thru quests. xcept new xoriat ones i havent met champs, we cant deal with using just simple tactic and bit of cc. not mentioning i m really enjoying orange named - finally some mobs who dont die sso quickly so one can enjoy all those special abilities not working on bosses:)

Here is the thing with champions as well as everything else that was hard with this game at one point or another.... just don't suck and you will be fine. In fact, I post it as the guild message of the day from time to time (using svck due to the stupid filter).
So, when you enter an elite quest and are thinking about zerging ahead despite your toon being weak and your playing ability even weaker... just think about it... just don't suck. Maybe you won't ding and cost the group 10%.

I love how this subject brings out the ePeens and the insecurities.
Most people either say, "I don't like it because of...." or "I'm not finding it hard at all."
But there are always those special few that feel the need to denigrate others in order to make themselves feel superior.
It tells us a lot about who you are.
Let me just say, "Congrats, you don't suck at DDO. Well done."

What I do enjoy about the champs is the little thrill I get when a ability works on them.

Haven't played in awhile and frankly dont give a shit enough to update the client right now but I still check things out here and sometimes go look through the shithole DDO forums....that said are the champ mobs all that tough?
From what I have read I am getting the impression the damage they dish out isn't "balanced" in that in some quests (HE?) they are hitting way too hard to what they do in other quests or that it depends on spawn rate and so people are getting dungeons where just rc and pop a different instance so it is completable?

Yeah if nothing else the champions have made areas like Gianthold pretty exciting, that first room in the Tor is good fun now.

I don't mind them... For the most part. To me it just seems like it was a cheap and easy fix. They should have made a dozen or so named bosses that would spawn randomly when you entered the quest (cr appropriate to lv of quest). To add some flavor maybe a named pale master would spawn and buff the mobs around him with hast and rage. An make it so you could see how many spawned when you enter quest. An add then to the monster manual. Just my 2 cents

One guildy did quote,
"1200 from shadarkai even w/ 215% fort"
They love them for the added spice. My guildies like their DDO spicy.
