Guild Wars 2

The Permanent DR bug from what I gather from guild members and pugs with similar stories showed to me that some characters were afflicted while other were not. That means that some players receive at best 50% of the reward that other players were gaining doing the same content. And this was NOT hot fix. Because of this I feel afflicted players should be compensated in some way for the incompetently implemented system. The cop out answer of just don’t do dungeons until it is fix is ridiculous. Why do I need to change my play style while other don’t? How is that fair. The DR system was made to combat people who “unfairly” “exploit” dungeon mechanics to complete them quickly. But instead it has put innocent players into a permanent state of DR, and I and others have NEVER gotten 60 tokens from a dungeon run this week. Those few afflicted should be compensated for our troubles.

To compensate you all personally with what you’re owed, would take hours upon hours of manpower and effort, yeah it’s just not gonna happen, you’ll probably get an event which temporarily offers bonus tokens for a time so you can catch up, but it won’t be exclusive to you personally. In other words, the same exploiting players would get to use it and to be honest, it shouldn’t be that big a deal to you.

If you’re exclusively doing dungeons for the rewards ALONE and don’t enjoy them, then perhaps the answer of “stop doing dungeons for now” is indeed right.
I still enjoy doing dungeons when I can, the only instances where I haven’t is when I’ve encountered anti-social “kittens” who want to “farm” content and don’t respect it or it’s design whatsoever

Why do I get the impression that you’re closer to this kind of mentality than you’d have us believe?

No it wouldn’t, Arenanet has demonstrated before that if there’s one thing they’re good at it’s logging and analytics.
If they don’t already have a database of who was hit the strongest with DR, I’m sure they’d be able to compile one very fast.

In my case I wasn’t even hit by DR, I can’t join a single explorable mode dungeon… I’d love compensation for not being able to experience endgame for the last week. (For which I haven’t played at all) I don’t think it’s likely though.

Arah Path 1 = 15 tokens.

AC Path 2 = 6 tokens.

Yeah, I’d say its broke.

Received 51 tokens total after clearing all three paths of CoF, first time since patch that i do explorable modes. The rest of my team all recieved 180 tokens! And i still have over 500 badges that my alt can’t use. Recieved those without exploiting before they crushed me by saying that i’m too good (I assume that is why I get less…)

Last 5 days I receive for CoF dungeon:
1. 30 / 15
2. 30
3. 30 / 10 / 2 (2x path 2 and part 3)
4. 30 / 5
5. 15 (because I did 1 path in TA 2 hours b4 that which gave me 30 tokens ofc)
Of
I do believe that we deserve some compensation, but I m pretty sure we are not gonna get any for reasons I understand.
But this is really unfair because I wasted so many hours for these 167 tokens while others even in the same party as I was could make 180 tokens in like 3 hours..
I just hope it will be fixed on Mondays patch otherwise my rage will be epic :p
