Enjoyed pent and shelt farming for gold/ectos/rares before an update just before Lost Shores. Seems like things have changed and running that area is 1/4 as productive as it used to be. Less reward and less ability to be part of the economy = less enjoyment and enthusiasm.
As far as Lost Shores final event, didn’t enjoy it, the map wiped to many times to be fun with out getting a precursor.
I keep coming back to the forums to look for some good news or at least positive Dev response… or really bad news like all T6 mats are only avail on the gem store.
I hope we start to see some changes to ANet’s approach, I’m starting to get very leery about the amount of time vs amount of reward in game. Change player behavior with reward not by taking it away.
That its not fun to be an Ele anymore because of recent changes.
My Elementalist(staff) has been mostly great, until the Cursed Shore event change’s. Its hard to place exactly what has changed, I can speculate that the drop rate has changed or that how tagging mobs has changed, but overall I can’t be sure.
A great part of my motivation was working toward a legendary and I had enjoyed this, it was rewarding enough to justify the hours (I was estimating about 6 months) to gather the gold and mats until the change.
I found grinding the camps to be fun because it was easy to stop and start so i didnt have to invest more than 30 to 60min to end up with a nice reward for my work.
The change I’ve felt is enough to drive me away from my Ele and maybe the game. Start a Warrior and deal with grinding the levels? Any advice?
