Rating 3000 in the puzzle is difficult or not?

I only recently reached 3000 in puzzles, I personally think it is rather difficult, granted I often times do "guess" moves rather than sitting there for 10 minutes and ensuring my move is correct, however i think if you are 1500-2000 it is a very achievable rating. Especially if you are taking your time unlike myself, since then i have dropped and am staying around the 2700-2900 range.

Guys not sure whats happening but i just got 3000 puzzle rating, at a certain point i got like 98 correct puzzles in a row. I already suspected that the puzzles were very much the same and VERY easy, so when I checked the rating of my puzzles, they were super low! I got the streak because there were like 50 puzzles in the range of 800 to 1600, not higher. What's going on? So now it doesn't feel that I earned a 3000 rating unfortunately. Is this normal?

Has something recently changed in the way chess puzzles are being served? I've gained almost 2000 points in the past 10 days, but I don't think I've improved that much. Also I rarely receive puzzles with a difficulty rating over 2000.

I also think it changed, they are only serving low rated puzzles, so it is more like a puzzle rush you have to go 10, 20, 30 or more puzzles without a mistake to slowly progress, but when you make one mistake you drop a lot of points. I think my puzzles are averaging 1500 even thought I'm 3000. Tried to find a config to change that, couldn't find one...

That’s reasonable

I have reached 3000 puzzle rating today.

Seems like most puzzles are from 400-800 rating, some 1100 or 2600.

Hardest puzzle solved 3181.

Average 16 sec on a puzzle.

I am confused as well. My stats now say 5 hours spent on puzzles, 1000 puzzles done, never spent more than 25 seconds on a puzzle, don't refresh, I am bad at chess (know the rules but never spent time on it and simply not good) and cruised to 2400 rating as well. What do I not get?

Well done happy to be honest I only lose points on the “win material” puzzles? which feels pretty ironic LOL

I achieved a rating of 2200 in puzzles, but didn't feel that there was a big difference between puzzle rating 2000 and 2400. Wasn't puzzle in chess.com grouped with the correct rating?

On Chess.com, each puzzle has its own puzzle rating; for example, a player with a 2400 puzzle rating may receive puzzles rated 2000 or 2600. However, the average difficulty of these puzzles is adjusted according to the player’s puzzle rating, reflecting their overall puzzle skill level. If you want more challenging puzzles, you can raise your puzzle rating to 3000 or higher.

There were changes to the puzzle system. One of those is there's a new puzzle Difficulty setting. If you want harder puzzles, change to Hard or Extra Hard
