To sum it up.
Nerfs aka less rewards:
Buffs aka more rewards:
Nerfs aka less rewards:
- Leadership tasks duration increased
- Neverember dailies removed
- GG dailies removed
- Dungeon chest no longer can be opened without a key during DD
- Sharandar daily lair chests no longer contain epic/blue item (69 greeny instead)
- Dread Ring daily lair chests no longer grant 100% chance for epic marks nor contain epic/blue item (69 greeny instead)
- IWD chests (used to give epic/blue 60 lvl rings, necks and belts) now give lvl 69/70 greenies
- Mobs no longer drop blue items (has to be confirmed, I personally haven't seen one to drop since M6 release)
- Dragon Hoard enchantments bugged/nerfed(?)
- Skirmish farming indirectly nerfed by increased difficulty (a run takes more time -> less runs)
Buffs aka more rewards:
- Sharandar weekly gives thaumaturge stones equal to 15000 RP
- New leadership tasks (arguably) give more rewards
- SCA drop companion gear (ultra nerfed drop rates)
- New areas drop R5 enchantments
- Better overflow exp rewards (arguably, since it takes almost 3 times more exp then before, while overall exp rewards were nerfed ~3 times)
M6 almost drains your soul given how boring it is. (c) joocycuzzzzzz

The gems we make meant to bolster armor no longer works
They should just shut this game down and get it done with, worsts and incompetent staff I've ever seen working on a game, with each module they bring out, they break the game more and more, and with Mod 6 they just broke the game.
The nerfed to AD gain from leadership is needed, as there are so many people with an army of leadership alts (myself included) that generates far too much AD than the sink. Then you get people complaining about ZAX being broken coz it has a 5mil+ backlog and takes over a week to get their ZEN, but now you can see that backlog is slowly decreasing.
Then people complain about how hard it is to get blue marks of power/union/stability, and now they're making them drop from dread ring chest. They probably could have done better by it giving either blue or purple marks, but they love to throw in junk when it comes to RNG rewards.
People also ask for more rewards for actually playing the game. Well they're trying to give more RP drop from all sources, it still needs improvement as it's not enough for the new equipments we have, but it's a step forward.
I completely agree with all these things being broken in this module, especially expensive transcendent items etc. I think they've just created another power gap that is even harder to balance than before. I hope they're working on all the bugs.
Have the gear and skills, but lack the friends to play with? Come and apply for Essence of Aggression. We have been here and strong since beta. (Immature, rude, and arrogant people will not be accepted)
Thats just how i feel, I read most posts and start to reply and just sigh and think why bother no one at cryptic ever listens, they have their little ideas on how to make money and they don't care what we think or want. Mod 6 was the last straw, I'm just doing my profs and invokes and waiting hoping someone at cryptic will do something to save this game
Well some people like to have some challenges (and they have finally delivered that after such a long time of people begging for it), and some will always want things to be very easy, well I guess invoking is one way of playing the game.

For players that have gear already, we don't get the free AD at the end to farm dungeons to salvage the gear. Even during the new DD hour, the net gain is 3k AD + 3k salvage but each key is 5k AD. Doesn't work out to be a worthwhile endeavor. Which means they just take out more players in the game.
How much money does one need to spend to meet your criteria for a whale? $50? $250? $2,500? More? If someone's dropped around $7,000 does that make them a whale? You can lvl 12 all your enchants, trans both weapon and armor, and you'll still be getting pwn'd by peon mobs. Spending money doesn't get you easier survivability any longer. It just gets you a nice swift mount, and maybe some cool dyes...
Gotta admit I am not a brain surgeon
But
This makes no sense
Really
None at all

Ask Cryptic then but don't expect an answer. But even without an official answer players should know not many bots do GG and other daillies but most of them do the weekly Shrandar instance and leadership among other enchantment farming. The new changes all benefit them.
Yet the going rate for spammer ad is going way way down. The game makes ad rarer in mod six which should mean that the spammers can charge more for it. But right now spammer ad is at $6.50 per million ad. Down from $12. per million right before mod 6 dropped.
That tells you that people are leaving this game in massive droves.
That's because it backfired. Players are not buying anything with real money if they can't get anything from the game to begin with. Content has been removed. AD can hardly be obtained through playing. What's the point of buying illegal AD?
It may have happened
But
A plan to do this?

Ask them rather but don't expect an answer. They only have to answer to their BOSS when things go wrong.
Just saying.

Oh NOW it's a deal!
The challenge use to be finish it 7 times during skirmish hour. A week of it and you would get a lesser barkshield enchantment that you could sell for 100k or so profit.
100k profit in a week of constantly playing was not that bad.
Now the challenge is to complete the skirmish once or maybe twice during the skirmish hour, with a well geared group, to get what? A chance at a shard of the worst enchantment in Game?
Make content harder? sure.
Make rewards worst? No way.
Choose one, not both.
Sharandar RP is character-bound, which is definitely not favoring "the bots".
And we have seen over and over that Cryptic will change things to hinder bots, even though it makes gameplay worse for players. Stop trying to imply PW is in league with gold-sellers.
I agree with you
There is no angle at which that view looks good
but
I'm thinken whoever believes that whoever believes they are in league with gold-sellers are just gonna believe that no matter what
Since all the skirmishes are way harder and take more time to complete, it becomes an indirect nerf because spending more time per run means less runs in general.
