And finally I’d like to point out the sanctity of legacy items. We did not know kunark was going to ever be released on p99. No one farmed guises early on hardcore, it was a novelty to grab one for nostalgia. We were stuck in kunark for years before VP was even released let alone epics. Those early times matter and it’s awesome to see a toon with an original guise, or even just a Tralina/Quikfingerz/Amelinda/Dulcina/Sirken spec guise. That’s why they’re not special on green. Every man and their dog farmed one and five alts worth.
But you don’t need to hand out extra loot, make the events fun and that’s enough. Removing administration time and pressure from these things not adding to the workload sorting through ambiguous prize winners and the wheat from the chaff (cheats) trying to put 1 man on encounter logs. Make good events is the reward un to itself.
