Don’t get me wrong, i think this is a great update and a worthwhile world event, but there are a number of things that i am really dissatisfied with.
5 Few events in Southsun
I turn to Southsun cove for events to grant me xp to compensate for the lack of dungeon groups. I am dissapointed. Vary dissapointed.
4 Bugs
Yup, bugs got #4. and only #4
3 FotM choked out other dungeons
Nobody is interested in doing lesser dungeons, which is highly problematic for us vets who rely on dungs for leveling our new chars.
2 No rabid gear
Don’t get me wrong, Apothecary gear is excelent stat choice, and probably one of my top 3, but rabid gear is highly anticipated by the entire community. The fact that fine transmutation stones are required for lv80 gears, HotW rares being 80 instaid of 75, and general lack of rabid equipment virtually cripples all non elementalit condition builds, which would use apothecary instaid.
1 FotM creates a hostile community
Yup, FotM is making all the PUGs incredibly judgemental and hostile to anyone who is 79 or lower. Nobody gives a kitten about title or Anet points and anything else that would indecate that anyone has more then 5s experience playing GW2, and kick them on the spot. I highly doubt this is the sort of reaction you all would expect from new content, and hope for measures to be taken for future updates. Oh, and this also pretty much applied to MK maze and southsun non-zerg groups.
No more non cosmetic world event rewards. We haven’t forgotten the Ancient Karka.
