So basically, people that exploited the hell out of the game, by farming bears that insta-respawn, finding loopholes, mindless zerging end-game content like ants will get what they deserved.
Not only they play the MMO games totally wrong, they also make unbearable this grindfest for all new players and destroying the whole game genre.
I’ve been a MMO Veteran for 20 years. I played the most hardcore stuff you can possibly imagine, and still, I did the same mistake as you. Countless of times.
I remember when in Dungeons and Dragons Online I farmed 200 times a quest called Eye of the Titan to drop an item that gives a boost FOR ONLY 1 Minute. LoL. It took me weeks of listening a mad music loop and LMB spamming a bugged boss until I gone crazy and lost all my mental sanity. The item was called Xachosian Eardweller. It’s literally a bug that enters in the ear and crawl it’s way to the host’s brain. It increases the mental ability of the host. But at the end, it will make him/her go crazy.
After I looted it, the next 2 weeks, they made it droppable from every chest in the game lol. I got punished, because instead of playing the game and enjoying, I lost my mind.
Me and my guildmates dropped items that DEVS thought was not even existing like the Epic Ring of Spell-Storing. The chance of dropping it (at the times) where 1/100000 maybe? One of my friend, took him 2 years of farming the same chest over and over. Also him, he gone crazy.
You want to be pro? Grind something else IRL instead of wasting time in MMOs chasing an end-game that gets wiped out EVERY PATCH NOTE.
You will get nerfed every patch note, and that’s what you deserve. And if you wanna waste your time, try to enjoy the game instead. Meanwhile I go fishing.
