Before some days ago, requirement was level 60 and was like this for the last years.
Suddenly, they changed it to 70 and needless to say what this means.
How do you feel about the new level requirement of 70 for IWD and Vault of The Nine quest ? 69 votes
I hate it, change it back to 60 !
I like it, leave it at 70.

I don't really see the point. Do they really want us grinding 3+ characters to 70? It just means that barring some of the really really expensive artifacts you will have a lot of people that will only have two artifacts. And frankly speaking no one wants to level a DC to 70 but a lot of people need the DC sigil.
A better solution wouldve been to put Sharandar and DR at 60, IWD at 65 and WoD at 70. This wouldve been a more valid progression point for the game. But since they tried to FORCE poeple into the new zones (even though we hated them and many of us still do) Then make the artifacts a lvl 65 quest (a sort of half way point in the new to 70 level system. )
Those two STUPID rehash zones, shouldnt even be in the game and if they left the old way to level in place, just one new zone wouldve been enough for old players.
They put alot of work , making nothing in that mod.
shar is stupidly easy. could easily still be a lvl 60 zone. dr a little harder but at least i can get marks from chests. could easily be a lvl 65 zone. iwd who cares. as long as you have 1 char with black ice shaping you can pretty much ignore the zone. the only boon worth getting is avalanche and it requires far too much time invested.
oh and now we're going to be pushed back into those zones again with underdark... hurray for completely phoning 3 expansions in a row in.
Arguing semantics like that is stupid. Classes that want to spam dailies need the sigil.
I mean if you want to argue like that technically no class needs enchantments. It'll just make it harder to have good stats You don't need good stats either. It'll just make it harder to play the game.
And I did get my sigil. At level 60.
Lucky me.
The problem is about Vault of the Nine quest - thats the real "hate-factor" about this new change.
So a simple solution: leave IWD for 70 but move the npc for VotN quest to PE or whatever accessible location and don't change anything else.
Not to mention its super bad for bussiness, considering that many ppl were buying char-slots exactly for this specific reason - to spend 2-3 days for getting an arti at 60 for their main(s), artifact IN WHICH they would have spent RP and related stuff (supporting the Zen buyers or buying Zen himself/herself to get items for the refine process)
And im pretty sure that bags and char-slots are top things ppl buy or want and on top-of-the-list.
Not very wise to cripple and narrow and discourage this main reason players have to buy char-slots (AKA $$$ in your pocket).
Have you REALLY thought at this Cryptic ?
Think again please
It also is no longer as rewarding.. Its sad, as I used to love playing them, but now, I dont know if Ill ever get another one through it after the pally is done.
Its too time consuming, and takes away from the only thing in game worth doing now, since leadership is gone.
Ive been mulling this over , more and more. Removal of leadership, really effed up this game. I used to do things for fun, so I chose what to do, If I farmed influence on 6 toons who cares.. My leadership was there making my money.
Now, Ive droped down to 2-3 a day .. no longer can do pvp.. just to run DDS (6-8 runs a day or more) and even then Ill never really progress anymore, due to them not fixing costing structure.
What a pale version of what was a fun game was rehashed out of this mess.
I dont know if it really can be saved at this point, to be bluntly honest. They dont seem to care to fix things.. at all.
If one wants the Sigil (assuming it is important for him), he will do it regardless if it is 60, 70 or 80.
I am leveling an OP and I don't mind to go to 70 to get the Sigil. Obviously, this is only my own opinion.

I can understand it is alloying when they change from 60 to 70. Painful? Hardly.
