that the whole endgame was designed for the trading post? I mean normally you would say that an auction house or trading post is an addition to a mmorpg, so that players can trade their stuff. Here I have the feeling I a play pure f2p mmorpg for which I paid € 55.
Recipes that have insane amounts of rare crafting components, account based DR so you can’t run around and farm anything(at the moment I am even not sure anymore that DR was introduced to counter the bot plague). You can kill 30 mobs and get only 2 vendor trash claws…and as a new addition to motivate you: another tier with better stats with infusions for which you also need insane amounts of materials.
