synapes is just pure city of heroes at its finest. classic wading through a sea of enemies. The changes I would do to this are remove the patrols, move EBs to the final mission, drop the first two skyway missions and slap a Monster version of Babbage in the 3way room and lastly add the rescues to the final mission, one at random giving you the temp hold power
Citadel is worse, if its not the narrow caves with really spread out enemies its the mission placement. going to the corners of IP its the islands north of talos just isnt fun even if you are built for travel.
and relying this heavily on TT and MT is starting to feel like a detriment to game design as a whole.
And to me, task forces have always been the main source of exp, back in 2004 and now. Numina only has 3 or 4 missions that have exp. Those random hunts just stop what we as humans consider "fun" stops in its tracks. Even playing since may 2019 i think only one of my alts has TF commander mostly because of those two TFs.
