Posted this on the feedback post, but might as well repeat here:
250 points is still a bit much if you consider alts, manageable for 1-2 characters, more than that and is still too daunting. If you don’t want to lower it to a decent cost (100-150 since there’s nothing elite about them), please increase the drops of the “proof of heroics” item in WvW.
Something tells me 100-150 still won’t be decent enough for you. They considered alts in the current reduction, anything lower would just result in people chewing through new content in a week and complaining about not having anything to do within 2 weeks after launch.
I don’t think they considered alts. 250 is an okay compromise, nothing amazing and when considering alts, it’s still a fairly big grind. Granted it’s not as big as 400 but still.
