How is this fun, Blizzard?

@JohnnyRage I just want to clarify so that I understand your complaint. You are upset that you have had some bad luck with ethereal drops? You are upset that blizzard requires all ethereals achievement to keep them is non season? Sounds to me like you want everything handed to you. Then when others are telling you how you can have it handed to you you just cry some more. Why don’t you just do what they are saying and be done with the ethereal hunt today?

If you don’t like this game you can leave. No one is holding you hostage. We are tired of people crying about this game. The game has been the same for years. If you want perfect gear after one season this is not the game for you. If you want all the ethereals but have very limited time you will need to use the vault farming method or go without the ethereal achievement. This is a farming game and you will be required to farm to get the things you want.

So let me get this right. You complain that it’s to slow, when we give you pointers on how to speed it up that’s irrelevant information?

So you expect it to be fast while you purposely play slow, or what is the point of your whine?

Clearly you aren’t trying to unlock the amazing “Whining the Loudest on the Forums” achievement. You get an amazing troll pet that doubles your chances of getting banned from the forums.

The method I described to obtain the puzzle rings was by running GRs on your main, i.e. something you’d absolutely be doing anyway, and would take under two hours. Since when is playing the game for two hours, from a 3000 hour season, considered to be so onerous as a job?

“just rift at higher levels bro” is not a pointer.

The most common “pointer” has been to tell me to use a strategy I AM ALREADY USING AND OUTLINED IN THE FIRST POST IN THIS THREAD.

I don’t want your useless pointers on how to speed it up. In fact your post contributed absolutely nothing of use except enable Blizzard to continue phoning it in on this game.

oh look, another genius telling me to use the “vault farming method” I already said I was using in the OP.

The game has not been “the same for years”. I’ve never had to delete a character to participate in an event before, for starters, nor have they forced me to play a class I don’t want to play to access a different class’s cosmetics.

So, you just want to continue whining about how slow it is, rather than take the advice about how to speed it up? Fair enough, enjoy being slow.

Actually the only thing you “outlined” was that you used puzzle rings. Clearly you’re doing it wrong if it takes “endless hours” and “a hundred years” when others can do it in 4 hours or less as proven.

No? Getting the wings for doing the set dungeons require mastery of all classes (bar Necro) to get, so that “forced” you to play classes you might not like for the cosmetic reward.

Guess there’s always a first time for everything? I have realized that I deleted my ages old Witch Doctor that I spent a good 800+ hours on it just for this season.

What did you think I was using the puzzle rings for?

Is there a way to mute/block people on this forum? I can feel my brain cells commit suicide one by one when I read replies like these.

No? Getting the wings for doing the set dungeons require mastery of all classes (bar >Necro) to get, so that “forced” you to play classes you might not like for the cosmetic >reward.

Wings aren’t a different class’s cosmetic. You also need to play other classes to get that particular class’s transmogs for another class. But you don’t have to play a necro to get crusader transmogs (or vice versa).

telling me to use a strategy I already said I was using 4 posts in a row is a useless “pointer”.

At this point I can only assume you’re a product of the Chicago school system in which case you have my condolences.

Who would have thought you need to farm items in a farming game? What is blizzard doing to us?

Dude, you claimed that getting the rings was the time consuming part, you never said HOW you did that.

It’s a cosmetic that requires play of all classes. The end result is the same, whether you want to laser focus on “class” cosmetic rather than just cosmetic changes nothing.

I would have outlined my strategy in crayon but blizz forums won’t let me post pics.

At the top-right of the forum, click your avatar. From the drop-down menu that appears, click the right-most icon, i.e. Preferences. Click on Preferences, Notifications, Users, Add+, enter their Battlenet ID and choose a duration for the Ignore (up to and including permanently). There’s also a Mute option in the same screen.

Have fun in your echo chamber.

Well, judging from your comments so far I would agree you should stick to crayons.

Incoming complaint about the red crayons not tasting of strawberries…

Well of course they won’t taste like strawberries. When complaining about not getting what you want you need to remember… “my favorite flavor… cherry red”. Obviously red should taste like cherries.

Naw bro what about watermelon?

In before OP claims everyone are toxic trolls.

Take his advice, tried and proved, plain and easy

yea, there is many ways to get all of them within hours, but for a person who may just want to play normally, you realized the drop rate is not the same as when the season started.

I don’t get it. The seson started July23. Even if you played casualy you could’ve obtaind all eths.
