This.
I’m no farmer, but I have nothing against farmers or farming per se. I just enjoy other playstyles. Before the champion loot, it wasn’t so important gold-wise to not do CoF over and over again. I did other things, mainly fractals, guild missions, other dungeons and leveling my alts. But I didn’t have the feeling I was missing out and I could still exchange gold for gems without bankrupting myself.
After the champion loot was introduced a lot changed. For the worse. Half of the guild is constantly farming the champions because you can never get the same amount of gold anywhere else in the game in this short amount of time. The hope, that dungeon participation would rise after the patch due to the change in dungeon rewards, didn’t get fulfilled. Instead, it got worse. And I hardly see anyone in map chats asking for dungeons, too.
I have nothing against the champion loot itself, I don’t want it gone (or nerfed), I just wish there were alternatives to it. Right now I don’t see them. Fractals or dungeons are not nearly as profitable as champion farming.
I just want a balanced reward system in the game, where I get rewarded for my playstyle even if it doesn’t involve farming champions. Before the patch I didn’t get the feeling I miss out on something, now I do and I can’t keep up with the trading post prices or gem/gold exchanges.
