No Nightmare 4 difficulty for new maps?

Is there a way for you to make the event completion up to nightmare 3? 

And just add the new maps with nightmare 4 for the rest of the end game content users?

If this is not possible, then when are the maps going to be made nightmare 4, and what IPWR will they be at? 

At the moment, for my group of friends, and I'm sure other end game players, there is nothing left for us to do except grind endless hours for minimal upgrades.

Just disappointed that the new content is restricted and isn't for everyone.

However, these difficulties and ranges are Event Specific. Meaning once these maps are no longer only part of the event, they will have all the difficulty ranges you can dream of. (that we currently have in the game)
So you will (eventually) be able to play our spookiest maps at Nightmare IV, just not as part of the Event.

Hi Qaz buddy

Now we can grind for time limited achieves and not worry about looking for upgradessquire_small.png

I have not seen the new achievements yet to see how hard they are.

Hey mate, yup grinding for minimal now =p

Anyway, its not just for liferoot, tried Gates, goblins too strong. Have yet to try end game, but not sure if I'm going to bother till there's better maps and stuff to do.

Upgrades aside, does anyone knows if the spooky maps contain some kind of unique event loot?, like a special egg or something?

the new event is indeed a letdown do to no option for nm4 difficulty - ill do it a couple of times to complete the challenges and then forget about it ... thats not how u do events trendy!

"NEW CONTENT COME PLAY IT!, oh you are on NM4? sorry this event isn't for you. You've played 500+ hours and have full NM4 gear and were ready for a new event challenge? Sorry, we are targeting a certain audience, and you (the 50+ hours a week player) are not it."

So to clarify - it is a non-trivial amount of work to setup maps for every difficulty in our range. We picked the ranges we knew, based on metrics, would hit the widest player base for the limited time event as we finish balance and setup work for these new map's permanent placement in the maplists. When the event retires, the new maps will show up in Freeplay and Endgame for ALL difficulties, with the appropriate rewards. And yes, you'll still be able to get the unique weapons from them at that time.


That said, we've decided to go ahead and add NM4 versions to the Halloween event. The NM4 versions won't be required for any of the event challenges, but it will allow people at end-game to get the weapons at a higher IPWR rating. We had multiple people on this all day today (and some are still working tonight to finish up the loot tables), with the maps going into QA tomorrow, and a target to release on Thursday's hotfix. 


Also, the Incursion goblins were a bug....a hilarious bug, but a bug none the less. This will also be fixed for the hotfix targeted for Thursday. In the meantime, if anyone is able to beat that thing...well, I'd love to see a video, or at least a few screenshots! :)
