Put actual loot into The Citadel

WTF are you doing?

Awful, boring looking cosmetics only.

Is this a joke?

Way to kill a pinnacle end game mode that a lot of people have been asking for.

What a braindead decision. Boring looking cosmetics only because some people can’t find 1 other person to play with lol.

Imagine not learning anything from Lilith at launch when all she had was a mount, and guess what? Barely anyone cared to do it because why bother?

Same thing will happen here. Why bother running an end game raid just for some bland looking cosmetic?

won’t the prestige of completing it be the real reward as well as the friends made along the way?

Excuse me for a moment.

:popcorn: :beer:

Okay, Im ready. Lets hear how you feel best gear should be gated behind groups and scr@w the soloers because I havent heard that one since WOW.

Exactly why for me Lilith was the best content in the game, and up to IH8 still was.

Not true you also have access to other rewards:

1.) Scrolls.
2.) Potions.
3.) Elixirs.
4.) Mount.

So instead screw people who want progression rewards from the hardest content in the game.

Yeah let’s make it pointless for all the people with social anxiety!

I’m actually kinda torn apart on Citadel in terms of rewards and incentives.

On one hand, I am happy it’s just cosmetics so I’m not really obliged to play and party up. I will do it but it won’t be something I will be pushing or crying hard.

On the other hand, I am kinda disappointed that it’s just cosmetics. I wish there’s something more like an uber reward. Also that would trigger up more threads in the forum and would make forum endgame even more fun. As I had been saying forum is the endgame.

one that would let you choose from/for all/any class(es) in the game.

Yeah four players ganking a boss is SO much tougher than a soloer taking on a torment boss at torment level 4. Get out of here with that noise.

If you want mmo rules, then go play an mmo. This is suppose to be an arpg.

It’s a group activity in an ARPG.

No loot incentive is trash no matter how you try to spin it.

aren’t you getting some sort of new currencies to spend on loot?
/edit
I should be clearer on this, not just you but we/us.

Who asked for MMO style group content?

Good. Dont do it. That way it fails and the devs get the message that forced grouping has no place in an arpg. If they want to spend money and resources making multi boss dungeons, make them solable.

Yeah, no. Let’s not lock anymore rewards behind a co-op only activity implemented solely to push Shop sales.

I admit I am one of those solo players complaining about the group only content. I am not even sure I will be buying VoH since I watched the last Campfire. What I learned is that Dark Citadel is one of the 3 major features coming with VoH. It is a long and difficult dungeon (based on what I am reading on the forum) and I agree that is should provide decent quality loot for those who make it to the end.

I believe Blizzard is not ready yet to do the big step towards a more MMO style of game. They don’t want to push away too many solo players. Solo players have to buy VoH too. I am sure more loot will be coming to the Citadel later, probably very soon, otherwise even players looking for group activities will quickly stop doing it.

You know, at first, I was against this multiplayer thing. After seeing and thinking about it really does not affect me as a solo player other that it takes up some room on the map.

I think they ought to reward very good gear for the effort. Make it substantive loot.
