My experience of personal story missions:
I randomly went roaming into Straits of Devastation and noticed: hey I haven’t done this mission yet since it has been bugged for ages so I guess I’ll give it a try. To my surprise I actually got to progress past the ‘defend gates’ part at the beginning which always bugged out before.
Alright finally I might complete my personal story. ‘Fights through hordes of undead’ then I realized they drop no loot at all. I’ve heard people have been farming this mission, restarting it for more loot long ago. But the loot has been completely removed. Not rewarding for taking the time killing ‘em, maybe you’re not supposed to but some people likes blowing stuff up.
Some extremely boring moments later of killing undead (had plenty of cursed shores farming before), I completed the mission. The reward: Blue level 70 gloves.
This mission, in my opinion isn’t fun at all, the end reward isn’t enough for such a lenghty mission (assuming you’re running solo). I’m full exotic geared though so it took like 20min more or less, didn’t time it.
I liked the first personal story missions before the Risen showed up, in divinity’s reach were more lively, interesting and fun. Especially the first few Order of Whispers missions. (Apples!
)
Maybe it didn’t feel fun/interesting due to the long breaks between the missions, last time I did personal story was like more than 1 month ago.
