Now that you bragged all over the place how you cut down bots really hard, which is really nice and I sincerely thank you for that, one problem stays from your old “punish everyone for bots farm” days, and that is diminishing returns.
Diminishing returns is now hurting players quite a bit. It is impossible to farm anything because drop rates are reduced so much common players just can’t benefit from it.
I used to farm in southsun cove for quite some time, while it was still fresh and botfree, really decent drop rates for tier 6 mats, even for rares too. I actually managed to get a “rare” rebreather skin for warrior, sweet indeed. But now, few weeks have passed, and bots came. Drops have suddenly dropped so much i rarely ever get a rare item, and t6 materials are so scarce it is not even funny.
I understand your goal, to keep bots empty handed, but now no one can farm anything because of it.
Can you please nerf DR a bit? I don’t mind farming for few hours to get my t6 materials, and yes they are needed now more than ever. You need stack of each for gifts of might and magic, stack of one for back piece, stack for hundreds of other stuff, and yet it is only possible to get puny 3-4 t6 materials per hour.
I also understand that you are supposed to push some cash to tp and pay taxes, but there is no place to farm cash from. Raw money drops are so rare I can’t even pay off my omnomberry bar.
I understand you said you want to have grinding as low as possible, but at least leave small window open for people who don’t mind grinding for hour or two. Not everyone enjoy running around map doing boring events or same AC/cof runs every day. And even that is reduced to only once a day.
TL;DR: Now that bots are gone, can we pls have our drops back?
