Rank 30 WvW Required for Gift of Battle Grind
Are people seriously complaining about this?
Seriously?
I agree. I haven’t nabbed my Gift of Battle yet, but I don’t mind the rank requirement. What I do find annoying is that it just makes it even more tempting to save up the gold to buy it outright.
Personally, I’d prefer that they add the requirement back with the caveat that Legendary requires Rank X to equip. The problem with that, however, is that people who bought their Legendary and have never set foot in WvW would scream bloody murder (and justifiably so).
So Anet is kinda between a rock and a hard place with this issue.

They are either all newbies, extremely self entitled players, or oldbies with very poor memory.
You have always had to WvW to get the Gifts. Before achievement chests came out you had to actually kill people to get Badges of honor and they used to drop a lot less frequently then they do now. Anet created the chests and suddenly you got showered in badges even if you never, ever set foot in the WvW maps. Anet decided that people should once again have to actually fight to get the Gift of BATTLE (crazy, iknowrite?) and came up with a very easy to achieve goal to compensate the ease of getting badges of honor.
God help us all if anet introduces a method for crafting a precursor and it requires any actual work.

To be honest, I think you would enjoy the game far more if you accept that your vision isn’t that of the devs. They want to make something different, and the way they do that is up to them. Wanting everything to change because it doesn’t make sense to you, or doesn’t fit in with your ideas of what is ‘right’, will only hurt your enjoyment of the game in the long run.
Only 350 whine posts to get a feature removed? Why wasn’t ascended gear removed again?
That was mostly WvW people asking for it to be removed. Need the PvE people to join your side to get things changed.
PvE people were also asking about ascended to be removed. It’s just that Anet can be really stubborn about their decisions, and it takes a lot until they can even admit that some of their decisions were not so well thought out.
Actions, not words.

Often, the difference between bad decisions and the braying of clueless, self-entitled players can be difficult to distinguish between. (That’s pointed at the forum populace in general, not the quoted poster.)

I already have to grind karma because of that nerf, now wvw levels… Just keep adding bit by bit hoping we don’t notice, soon it would take a whole year of hard work and dedication just for one legendary
Well, it’s not supposed to be something you get in a week unless you open up your wallet and buy one.
I agree, not something you get in a week, but I don’t think it should take a year either. What about new players who will eventually go on to get a legendary, why is it fair that they have to grind 10hours more or so for their legendary because they are new? I would have probably been more happy if they done something different like made an extra quest for a legendary rather than another boring Zerg grind.
