Hello everyone!
Let’s start with this, i haven’t played the game during the season 2 “free time” so, now i’ve to pay to play it.
That was ok for me until now!
I just bought an expac for 45€ and i’m experiencing an issue because of that content unavailable free because of tyrian mastery points.
For people with a VERY bad sense of the situation “yes we can complete tyrian mastery without the LS2” but, it’s kinda ridiculous what we must do in order to get that.
Considering my situation i’m needing 20 tyrian points.
to get those without LS2 here’s what I’ve to do :
Fractal : 3points (those are doable so okay)
Silverwastes : 4 points (1 legendary to kill for me but it’s still completely random to get. 1 from the bonus for killing the 4, 1 for the golden lost badges and 1 for puzzle jump) that’s still fine, even if the random crap start to be annoying.
Exploring 2, Lion’s arch extermination (with a guide ok), and Dive master -_-
Jumping puzzles only 1 left to get
Bosses 3 : killing the 3 heads (just wait and hope for enough people to do the thing)
Triple trouble : 2 (from the same boss in “bosses” category)
Tequatl : 1 for completing the meta-achievement
Fashion : 1 for spending lots of gold in racial skins.
Collections 4
rare ones) Fractal master, Bioluminescence, ambrite weapons and ascended accoutrement.
Total : 21 mastery points ! (just one more from what I need) and it’s ridiculous!
Fashion one would cost me 560Gold and a character slot (800 gems) (and i bought the human one already)
Collections are silly, in term of “farming time” and goldwise too.
SO here’s the point, i can’t get 8 (to 16) masteries point from the LS2 and it’s seriously missing considering the whole grind options I have now.
We “can” do it without the LS2 i just proved it, but get it would be way faster! and I just don’t understand why i’ve to buy this LS2 to enjoy the “new” content of the expansion I bought one week ago!
So yes I know I could farm the gold and buy it with gold and somehow it would cost less than the fashion mastery.
But here we’re talking about a content that was once free for people (those exact same people arguing everywhere you can get it without the LS2 right ?) and that we “must” pay now, just next an expansion!
Don’t get all this wrong ! It wouldn’t be so bad if some serious alternatives were there, but it’s not the case. Never playing this content before was not “game breaking”, now it is…
