Get at me when you miraculously become relevant

I just think that we need to remember, this new meta will get tiresome for everyone, not just one guild, as y’all are so quick to point out. It is fun, as a cleric, I actually do more than press a couple buttons here and there. And there’s a greater sense of gratification when we do kill a mob and I see people win loot. But it will eventually become tedious, for many.

More tedious than staring at walls for hours? Kael and Thurg B remains the worst parts of the game because they require twitchy responses over 16 hour windows.

Ironically, though, after making agreements to remove COTH racing from Kael, AM changed the meta to require one for Zlandi - and eliminated a fun encounter and engage into Yet Another Zone Line Pull.

Crawls allow 100+ people to experience tedium, instead of just limiting it to the 5-10 man masochists pull team.

We offered to run down instead of COTHing but you didn't respond to it.

Unwilling to keep the encounter in the lair though. And you haven’t said much of anything since Riptoes.

Unicity liked to point out how there are zero Riot folks shit talking because they were above it, it was cringe/disappointing/he didn't like it, and asked me to PM him examples of it happening so he could speak to the Riot folks involved.

What is it, you want the banter or you want the silence? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Like or it or not it definitely feels like EQ more then this weird mini game of 5-10 people from each guild trying to outsock or outcoth eachother week in and week out.

Regardless if it has a positive impact or negative impact on whichever guild, i think it was the right move. I've played the tank, healing role, guards add buffer, FTE'r, you name it, all of them feel rewarding but out of all of them cleric is by far the funnest in ToV now. Very attentive role from just a CH chain at entrance and your hp/resist gear actually do something now.

Yes, I agree and so do many others.

I agree that pulling to zone was a bit cheesy and think the original design was to crawl ToV. However, this new meta has only created a larger barrier of entry. Now, the rewards simply go to the biggest zerg, because you won't need to wait for as many guards to die.

It's only a matter of time before everyone starts labeling Riot the villain and accusing all of them of denying the pixels. Then we will have come full circle, but I question whether Riot will have the self-awareness to recognize their own hypocrisy.
