  • I like this post a lot. What all of this brings to the surface (to me, at least) is that the cap alone is not the issue (which I said in a previous post.) The real problem is that we are slowly having playing options taken away. First we were told we can't choose what dungeon to run to earn our daily rAD. We had to do what…
  • The comment was made that people said they'd quit over changes in the last few mods, yet they are still playing. Another comment was made that people claim they quit but are still here posting. Let me preface this by saying I am a player who did quit, so there is no point in pretending like people are letting off steam by…
  • Same here. Wasn't worth it, especially since my play time is limited. It isn't worth the effort when I can just work on salvage and AD, which is something I enjoy, and take care of the things I don't enjoy by buying them. Which is the point of those tokens, I am sure. It just stinks that the majority of the game has become…
  • I totally agree with you, @"tiberiusrex#6660". I strongly suspect RD and SKT will always be a money maker for the company, as well. Those campaigns will be bought out versus making the fast track token on a main. I know I will. It isn't worth it, even if they are shortened somewhat.
  • Yep. I would like to see all the content retain some sort of replay-ability. I also think the keys are completely out of hand, and at some point some of these things will need to start taking epic dungeon keys and be done with it. Why would I farm content in a zone I consider not useful (see above) to get components to…
  • As a console player, I play with people who have never set virtual foot on the web site or forums. They know what they know from playing, and if no one mentions the rewards agent, they have no idea he is there. I agree that there should be a message sent in the mail for the cache AND for the new zones. The game still sends…
  • I've been referring to it as 12c and will likely continue to do so. I would say it is definitely more on par with 12b than it is with a new full mod. Nothing about Chult does it for me. I don't really like dinosaurs in my fantasy games, even though that is the new trend these days. Among the other issues everyone else has…
  • It's funny. I have had the same exact experience as the OP, but I've heard several players say the same thing as @"tiberiusrex#6660". I don't know, guys. I feel like my EToS runs are definitely getting far less salvage from bosses and extra drops from the chest, and it sure does reek of nerf to me.... but I also seriously…
  • *mashing buttons* Why... can't.... I.... like.... the New Coke reference.... more.... than once? *grumbling*
  • :smiley: :smiley: True story. My father used to sail the Gulf Of Mexico three months a year while flying the Jolly Roger and doing questionable supplemental things for a living, so that comment was made by someone who was sort of almost actually raised by a pirate. As soon as they were out of sight of the port, they would…
  • I have over 300k in RP saved up for Mod 13 if I am still playing when it hits. I run one alt (with Wanderer's Fortune) through one RQ dungeon and RQ skirmish once a day, so therefore collect account bound refinement on that toon that I send to my main at a later date. I have Wanderer's Fortune and 2 rank 10 or 11 QM's on…
  • I don't disagree with the premise of what either of you are saying, but I do think it is impossible to expect all people to behave or be courteous, whichever word you prefer to use. I, of course, would love that to not be the case, but some people will always be "that way." It's why the human race as a whole can't have…
  • To be frank, I'm a casual player, and Wanderer's Fortune on two toons, Quartermasters on one has given me more than enough RP, That being said, I play on Xbox, so when the new sets hit I will probably be singing another tune altogether.
  • I'm not going to say anything against the devs because I get the feeling there are too few of them tasked with doing too many things, following the orders of chiefs who are far removed from the game as a whole. What I will say is new guilds or even low level guilds have zero chance. Changes here, changes there, tweaking…
  • Because everyone hates IG being in the random queue. But yes, there are a kazillion threads about this. You are very right. I'd guess some of it is from newer members who don't know to go look for one of the others and resurrect it versus starting a new one. Maybe people think the sheer number of threads will be enough to…
  • Gross. I hadn't noticed those were gone, but that's probably because I went from being in a guild struggling with/focused solely on conqueror's shards to being absorbed into a GH 20 where I skip around swatting at things whenever I feel like doing influence. Seems like Strongholds need some help and new activities versus…
  • Honestly, if there is a discussion going on and I feel strongly enough one way or another, I am not going to repeat what has already been said 7 times. I am just going to hit the agree or disagree button and move on. It isn't useful for me to reword the same thoughts already expressed. Or disagreeing with the 15th post…
  • You raise a very, very excellent point here. Tone. We can read other people's posts and assume they are "saying" it one way when it is in fact something else altogether. Sometimes if we've had a bad day or are just in a crabby mood, it is very easy to take written words out of context. I'm glad you said that. Sometimes we…
  • Gooooooood pooooint. I had a new toon following me around telling me how much they liked my pretty horse. I assumed they were a kid. It was one of my guild leads. :D
  • Wow. That level of..... er..... dedication (?) to giving you negative feedback is a bit extreme. I'm sorry to hear that happened to you. It may have made you laugh, but I can imagine cyber stalking like that isn't exactly fun. I have to agree with a lot of what you've said about coping with problems at hand and social…
  • Maybe they're doing it the same way I always manage to be found by players who send me messages saying "I'm new. Can you give me a better mount?" Same message, new name. Every time. I think the problem is that unless we are sneaky-sneaks ourselves, we don't know how the scammers do what they do.
  • I don't think it just seems that way. I think you are very right. It wasn't that long ago that green "trash" items were dropping all over the place, and now that they are useful, the rate seems halved to me. Maybe even more. The scroll rate doesn't seem as drastic as a change, but I have a zillion scrolls from VIP so I'm…
  • Sadly, you don't even have to use professions for that unless you want to. As a former small guild member who has now been sucked into the maxed out guild/alliance machine, the best thing I ever discovered was stuffing the coffer with those lovely blue insignia we get from the ever exciting mount packs and as boss drops in…
  • I actually had this same conversation on the phone this morning on the way to work. My "speaking partner" was saying all this same stuff. He is worn out, annoyed, ticked, and frustrated by the hunts. You spend six forevers running to get components that won't stack, and we are on Xbox, so they still have to be mailed. Then…
  • Some people will agree and some won't (as seen here,) but unfortunately I am in the camp that agrees. I think the game is suffering number wise, and I do think the content is an issue. I've also hit that point of only playing a couple of times a week. New players come and old players go in all games. Everyone's definition…
  • No one should hate you for saying it. It's true. There are some situations where it isn't a solution that fits everyone, however. Some players need the daily AD so have to run their RQs or face a big loss in AD income. In addition, not everyone can get guild mates to run with them in a timely manner (or at all.) When…
  • @greywynd gave you the 100% correct answer, of course. As a side note, though... you aren't alone. The change aggravates the sin out of me, too. You aren't the only one who had a "400 RP?!" moment. Reduced costs are great and all, but losing RP on that level is painful to me.
  • Oops. You posted right before I did. Can I just say "What @zephyriah said"?
