Guild Wars 2

I understand what they are trying to do with the change in exp/gold/drops however they are really trying to block what players do with this update. The reason this game is such a hit is because we have freedom do play the way we like, we are populated with players that rather dungeon grind to 80, enjoy farming events for exp, going out and doing quests, full map exploration and or leveling off of just WvW. With this update they are taking away what makes guild wars 2 special and smacking us in the face with it.

Now the real question is how do they fix this horrible update?
I think the best way they can fix it is by reverting STORY back to what it was. Make story mode a place where you can grind exp to level but your rewards aren’t as amazing. Instead of 12 silver? from CM drop it by half that way you can still repair and have money to spare.

What about explorable mode?
I think they should focus more on rewards instead of limiting what you can do, boost the gold on explorable and lower the exp. That way it is more about the reward and less about the exp farm. To make different trees more appealing you should give a quest outside or when entering it that gives a boosted token reward when all 3 roads are done. The reward would have to be significantly higher then farming to make it worth it ofcourse but that interest tons.
