This just feels like unfinished and lazy work, its not intuitive and certainly not fun.
Question for you people who play other MMOs. Does Guild Wars 2 have more “fun” events than this type of stuff or are all games basically the same?
Dig at Traitor's Rest is bugged again, failed to start at all this time. Last time started late. I'd rather wait longer for a less buggy update than poor quality updates pushed out fast.
One thing to note is that currently, the Reputation doesn't seem to have any rewards. This is in contrast to Siridormi, who gave Rep rewards at every tier. I just hit Rank 2 yesterday, and nada.
I started to do this and immediately felt like it was just half-garbage. Much like Forbidden Reach, Time Rift, or Febolgs it an a time sink for their MAUs. This Character Bound reputation is garbage. These infinite time grinds are awful. Please just stop. Look at your competition of FFXIV, ESO, RuneScape. They don't have this &*!@ to a degree like this. People want to enjoy the content, not mindless currency / rep grinds.
Blizzard need to fix this event so that all chars on account get the same weekly reward. The current system is awfull. Blizzard are loosing players to crap like this who isnt whole hearted made and looks like an beta version made it ingame. They need to wake up in Irvine and provide the complete experience. Because this sure as hell doesnt even cover it.
I am astonished at all the people here complaining that it's too complicated/too hard/too long/too boring... the rewards are just mogs, folks. And yet, folks are clogging event areas with their AFKs, on mounts and with pets out, no less, whining that the rewards aren't enough, (the more who actively participate, the faster things go, AND the bigger the rewards.) If it's not fun, don't do it. There's no power grind here. I mean, complaining about the bugginess? Fair enough. Stuff IS super buggy right now. But how many times have I heard PvP and Mythic players tell me I shouldn't complain if I don't want to play the game, because I don't enjoy raiding and PvPing? If you don't enjoy it... don't do it. If I can live without Epic level gear, then y'all can probably live without a canteen belt. Just sayin.
