Jumping or Grinding?
I just wanted to come in here and say I agree.
I want Josh Foreman to read this thread and know that many players are trucking along in SAB and suddenly their momentum is completely halted because of an artificial gateway that forces them to grind for no good reason.
I was doing SAB just fine until now I have to find a way to backtrack and get 650 baubles out of thin air. Getting a torch is one thing but it’s sly that a bauble purse is required as well. The hitbox technical issues and difficulty balance is one thing, but this longevity padding gateway non-sense is the last straw. A lot of the design decisions made in World 2 shows a great lack of craftsmanship, which is shocking because World 1 was great fun.
While I agree that those items should be found, getting the items was not overly too hard in the previous SAB event.
That being said, for those that are just doing SAB now, actually have to grind out those 400 baubles. The dig spots REALLY helped out back in April. It wasn’t that hard to get 500 baubles, usually you could get about half that in one or two zones of world 1 in one run. Due to the changes they made to the dig spots though, you will probably get that much on the first run, but will have to wait a day to get the same amount for the second run.
They also do have something similar to what you are stating. The elite, I believe it was called Motto’s Breath, was somewhat difficult to find and get too. I didn’t find it until I started to do my achievement runs(first couple runs were just for fun). It would be nice to just find them, but its not so difficult to just farm the baubles needed..
oh wait..
forgot about that once per day, per account bullkitten..
