Please refer to this and I’m sure MANY other posts and responds for this issue. If you are able to hit the “diminishing return or DR” system just by trying to complete dynamic events a FEW times, something is obviously wrong.

Let me explain if you don’t know, if you are doing something around 3+ times, you start to get VERY little rewards.

Some people even say if you are doing a chain event and fail, you hit the DR very fast by trying to complete it after failing twice.

I’ve seen people say that even though they were just trying to 100% an area, just by doing the dynamic events and exploratory stuff in the map, they hit the DR.

Countless reasons why it needs to be changed, DR system shouldn’t prevent people from obtaining full rewards, UNLESS it is obviously abusing the reward system by BOTTING, gathering people to do an event COUNTLESS TIMES.

I’ve seen people build tanky and AFK near events to obtain rewards, because there is a bug with events. I’ve even gotten gold for not even seeing an event, MANY times. Still full rewards any everything.

Anyway, the DR should punish botters and exploits. Nothing more, if someone REALLY likes an event and he decides to do it 3-4 times, don’t punish him for not wanting to do what he thinks is boring, but when the DR hits after the 2nd “attempt”, that is ridiculous.

Funniest thing is, DR does not affect botters in any shape or form since they are able to teleport between locations at will.

Arena is obviously unable to provide an answer as to why DR is still in game, except to punish legit players and push them in direction of ingame shop.

Also consider that Anet want you to be at ‘endgame’ for most of your gaming experience, you can get to 80 quickly, get a full set of exotics pretty quickly.

The only thing that takes a long time, and relative to the other parts its a ridiculously long time is to get a legendary and that requires grinding.

So why have they added DR to punish you from doing what they intended you to do at end game?

It makes no sense.
