PvE number balance: TTK vs TTD

[Virtus]

Hi all,

I have created a couple of very general and broad polls to roughly gauge opinions on the Time To Kill and Time To Die from appropriate NPCs. This includes lower rank runners against aggies, mid ranks against launchers & co, up to end game warbots / firemobs - it excludes boss / special NPCs such as Regant, Genotoxic Nightmare, Chaos Queen, MC5 Commander etc.

The polls allow multiple answers each so please think about an average build (nothing fringe like PPU with rifle) and how long you feel it is appropriate to kill and be killed by similar rank mobs which is suitable for you to fight at your current rank and with appropriate equipment.

These opinions will help us to rebalance PvE when runner damage and resistances are altered in upcoming patches when applied and altered to fit each scenario which is suitable for that NPC.

I leveled a char at the nc-classic-server, and there pve feels quite right: At every level ncps of a similar level can seriously hurt you. You have to look for cover and eat a lot of medpacks. Still you die more often. Reduce the health of the mobs and enhance there damage dramatically. Then pve will be more fun.
