Here. Here’s more proof – this is after doing maybe 1 or 2 DE’s prior to this chain.

I hit this DR, was like wtf…went to Orr to see if it was map based – was going well for a while and then DR hit after like the 3rd DE.

To those saying this is a bug – You are merely speculating as Arenanet has not stated so, and has been ignoring the general topic; therefore you don’t know you are just spewing what you want to be true. To those who are saying “I haven’t experienced it, therefore it doesn’t exist” – You experience doesn’t reign true for everyone. Maybe you are playing ineffectively, maybe you don’t play the game at a speed that others might, maybe you are a special snowflake that is protected against the code, who knows. Arenanet hasn’t said what caused it, hasn’t said their philosophy, or anything on the topic.

I’d be happy to replicate the DR system for those of you thinking it’s some made up fairy tale when I log on for the 3-4 hours a day I get to play.

I personally hope it’s a bug. That would be great to know that when I just run Dynamic Events that I can reap the karma/gold benefits as I assume I should get. Is it a bug? Don’t know, no one knows except for the developers of the game, so stop trying to claim you know otherwise.

From the time stamp in the picture, you did 4 events in 3 minutes. That’s incredibly fast, no wonder you hit the diminishing returns limit.

You are right, since that chain event is 7 events I should definitely only do 2 and leave the map out of respect to our new overlord, DR. God forbid I want to do a chain of events.

I’m not saying anything like that, but for the fact that DR is triggered from quick kills and loot in a set amount of time theoretically, but that is stupid quick for even a chain of DE. Also, I wasn’t saying anything bad, just making a statement that you did that REALLY fast, which could be seen as farming. It’s hard to distinguish legit event completion from farming event completion. This is most likely DR not working as intended.

No need for sarcasm. Doing something quicker than intended (you had a really large group) is bound to be hit.

Gold sinks =/= gear progression. The fact that you level up and must buy a new weapon/set of armor every few levels is because otherwise everyone would complain that there is nothing to spend their precious gold on. Your level 3 shortbow should perform relatively the same as your level 80 shortbow against enemies of those levels. You should kill your foes in roughly the same amount of time.

Anet does NOT want to reward the people who have hundreds of hours a week to spend on the game when others who play it just a few hours a week because they have a job or other responsibilities like myself, can’t make the same progress.
