Where Chickens Drop Better Loot Than Dragons

Like many, I roam the lands of Orr, I stride the lost shore seeking fortune in events waiting eagerly for a temple run or the cumulation of a major chain where there shall be a boss that drops a big, fat, chest that occupies half my viewing screen. This sounds so wonderful to me and perhaps you too, whom roam the last shore, whom prefer to roam events in an open world rather than portal into a dinky little fractal. Dinky, I tell you.

But you see my good Sirs, my good Mrs. there is a problem and pronounced now more so than ever with Camp Penitent thoroughly bugged. People no longer value your events so much as to run them in preference to grinding mobs. That massive chest? It gives a few greens and blues and a tiny bit of coin for a ton of sometimes worthless effort. Yet now we can stand at a way point, even when an event is unbugged, and grind mobs of chickens, chickens I tell you, and receive moldy bags, valued ingredients, and even yellow rare or exotic items far more commonly than from your temples, your high Orrian wizards, or your vaunted dragons, no matter the magic find.

Good sirs, you have inadvertently produced a game where your risen chickens provide better loot than your dragons…

Can this really be allowed to stand? Are you secretly a front for Bojangles? For that greasy KFC? And I must write that, this is not a situation that can be solved with a NERF. You see from my point of view the open world roaming from one dynamic event to another is one of the few features you have that make your game UNIQUE. And, unless you want the open world abandoned in favor of those morbid dungeon runs, those dinky little fractals, participation needs to be adequately rewarded and of equal value.

I hereby request that you consider buffing the loot from those massive chests in Lost Shore and elsewhere so that they not only fill my screen but load my inventory with wonders. For now sir, I am heading back to the Lost Shore, and back to grinding chickens as no one sees the value in karma or chest of little comparable worth.

Chickens I tell you… And not dragons.

Thank you.
