Dude, I don’t even know why people are crying so bad… Watermark isn’t that hard…
Mines not DONE… I have all armor to Max, but weapons are like 540’s with the exception of hammer is Max because I was in a group that killed the Sirens Brute a lot for the Terracrash, so I leveled up Hammer quicker then everythign else. Jewlery isn’t max…
Yes i did read your post and determined it lost all credibility when you stated the following:
Why? Because many of the people with 600wm got it by zerging chests and glitching bosses to exploit their way to 600wm.
Zerging with people is not an exploit. No where on the map does it say you can’t go to an area with 50+ people. You labeling it as such is comical at best and is a clear indication that you simply don’t know how to socialize. Make friends, go with them to these areas. Again this isn’t a difficult concept.
Then @Grommek quotes the following from @Ragnarz :
Alternatively, they could just grandfather everyone’s expertise to their current gear score and bobs ur uncle!
Interestingly enough, this is exactly what they’re doing. Which i’ve outlined above. But again since you’re too dense and ignorant to understand i’ll recap.
And since you have a difficult time reading ill take it to a more granular level for you…
your HWM progression will not be reset and any HWM you had earned will be converted to Expertise.
Since your ability to read is lacking, i’ll make it bold for you too:
your HWM progression will not be reset and any HWM you had earned will be converted to Expertise.
All of which mentioned in my post/posts is inherently on topic. But proceed 
Where did they say they are resetting the watermark? Did i miss something?
Some fool put in a support ticket and posted pictures of the support guy saying it would be reset to 500, which was a lie.
It’s not about it being hard. It’s about it being boring as fuck and forced upon us whereas we used to have multiple ways to gear out. Now those ways and the time invested in them are near worthless and we have to do the boring AF parts of the game we chose to skip (or had to skip on dead servers like mine).
What are you not getting here?
Ok, again. I’ve tried to be patient with you. You are on a completely different topic with your bad attitude, and you’re making yourself look like a moron.
The OP’s original post stated that we should reset EVERYONE’s WM to 500. Again, if you have problems reading the original post, I can write up an adequate summary for you. I don’t mind, but please, discontinue with your bad attitude, as I haven’t had one with you until now…
Yes, I realize this is what they are doing, which is why I stated this is what they should do as opposed to resetting EVERYONE.
So all this discussion is based on a rumor?
Again, I stopped reading here:
It’s not about it being hard. It’s about it being boring as fuck and forced upon us
You know why? Because no one is forcing you to play. You. Have. An. Addiction.
That’s a you problem not ours or the game devs.
Honestly, if you went the crafting route that is on you.
For you to have spent hours upon hours crafting and no once stepping foot in any elite zone is beyond me.
It’s YOUR choice not to go there. Be happy they’re now giving you the ability to sit in settlements like a homebody and level your GS.
Claiming others ignorance while flaunting your own failed reading comprehension is amusing. Universal conversion is not on the table.
Well, the idea that IT was going to be reset… I was never actually going to be reset… It was ONE ill informed Tech Support person who started this non-sense.
Right from the get go, they said they would RENAME it, not REPLACE it with… So, to me that always means the watermark progress would stay.
NO, IT’S NOT BASED ON A RUMOR. The rumor was they would reset to 500. The clarification was that we we not going to be reset.
My point is everyone SHOULD be reset if these changes go live (which they shouldn’t go live). Resetting half the players is setting a lot of people way behind through no fault of their own. Either reset everyone or no-one.
If you don’t think it’s forced you are delusional. We are going from 3 ways to get high GS gear (HWM farm, crafting, trading) to 1 way (HWM farm). This is literally the definition of forced content. You have to do this to progress or stay stuck in place….
So reset no one. Because resetting everyone is unacceptable.
Resetting progress in an MMO is unacceptable in general.
Not one single person is forcing you to play this video game. If its not the direction you want it to go in take a break. Do something else with your life lmao.
Why do you feel like you are stuck playing a video game that you dont want to?
YOU problem.
I think you’re just very misinformed about these changes… Nobody gets set back…
Half of NOBODY… Because NOBODY is getting “reset”.
100% agree
Where does it says that is resetting for half players that’s what i don’t get? can you link the post?
I am actually taking a break when this change goes live, you dont even need to tell me about it.
But you still fail to see the problem people are raising and it honestly looks bad on your part.
He’s just wrong… He doesn’t know wtf he’s talking about.
