is Progress part of the game for non-meta players!

Ok to put it in context, I have a self made Titan non-meta build and progress was fine and I was able to get to 97.. however since the last update 0.3, I made 0% progress. I play everyday and I am a good player in general. but every couple of maps i get one shotted by a certain mechanics by the final boss and I die. now many suggested to skip bosses or just to use Grand project to go to many maps without killing the boss etc.. I find it odd to escape the bosses thou the loot is not at the Rendezvous anyway. I use the omen when i am above 2.5% but still you do many maps to get 3% and boom you die one shotted by a boss and you start again.. after restarting so many times I feel it is broken system and need to be addressed.

Suggestions:

-instead of a flat 10% on progress when you die it should be a % of your progress. meaning you finished all map, less than 5% of mob left, you earn exp equivalent to 50% for your progress. and boss another 50% on your progress. you die to boss and you get 50% less on your progress so total of 25%. this could be easy to implement and people will still enjoy the little progress without having to revert to meta.

-for Omen of amelioration it could also be a % on your progress. so you lose % of your total progress when you die -50% using amelioration.

or just bring back maps with bosses.. like 1 in 2 maps or so.

Thank you for listening to me venting the fact I've been at 0% for a while.

if any others are having same issues please suggest other measures.. if you want to team up so we can play and progress, I am happy to team. GL hf!

This has lead to an overall negative experience for all solo players, Can no longer put up to 9 tablets on a map, only 3, ok but they buffed ranges of values on tablets? well do these tablets drop? prior to update I had a quad chest of tablets I had too many, my issue was getting too many, Now? Complete opposite, I fully instill my maps to add more precursor tablet chance, still nothing...

I wanna layback have a chill experience, Would have to literally nitpick maps now as I personally find some bosses to just be unfair messes but I've given up for season, lost all enjoyment sadly, just pondering every day why and how can it be fixed xD I like the core game, not direction its going or the base it caters too.

Like take Tierney, The Hateful for instance, No set phases at portions of hp bar, No invulnerability, just has set attacks, dodge and shoot, dude can be killed in seconds

Now lets take Aurelian, the Grand Adjudicator, Can be melted fairly quickly BUT GUESS WHAT, BECOMES INVULNERABLE AT END, and now you have to wait out some BS phases, MIGHT get a phase where he sets up 3 rock walls with ways to get past but very limited time or your 1 shot, Might not get that phase though MIGHT get a phase where he slams to massive rock pillars in the middle and pushes them outwards, Might get one of the two, there may even be a third I really can't remember

Some bosses just shouldn't be map bosses... that simple, or only make them possible to appear with tablets who knows... I don't find there to be enough indicators, enough time, ENOUGH SPACE DANG IT LIKE ARE WE ANTS??????
Progress, playing this game, has been thrown out the window tossed aside for solo's
