I know, I know, it’s been asked for a million times, but I feel it needs to be asked for yet again. If the admins have responded to it already, I’m having a heck of a time finding that, so apologies if that’s the case.
Simply put: please change the EXP / Mastery progress bar on the bottom of the screen to either be two separate bars or a toggled display!
Why is this necessary? Opinion, really, but there are a few hiccups I’ve found in the game that are mild frustrations:
Both myself and a few friends have expressed similar feelings about that last point there — it really does feel like we’re “stuck” in the game unless we go to the Heart of Thorns maps and grind. None of us particularly enjoy them (and I don’t have the points to finish my Fractals line anyway, so that feels moot too), and don’t have enough chances to play together to make the greater challenge feel worthwhile, especially now that everyone has moved on to LS3 content.
As a result, we’ve all kind of drifted away from the game because there’s really nothing left to say that we’re making progress beyond grinding in Hearth of Thorns or crafting, neither of which I (and others) have much like for.
So … yeah.
I get why it’s the way it is, and it does work — I just want to be vain about my own take on grinding and seeing a little meter progress across the bottom of my screen over and over to validate why I’m still playing the game. That’s literally it.
