1.5k reward quests are WEEKLY? Who did this math?

A mount alone is 20,000. You’re telling me the 3 boss quests are WEEKLY? So 1.5k x 3 = 4.5k. And this event only lasts a month. How would anyone possible get the pets and mounts - never mind catch up gear - unless they completely no life grinded mobs for 1-5 each. That’s it, I decided this event is not worth my time.

A sound came out of me when I read this and I genuinely don’t know if was anxiety or amusement based.

I made a feedback thread on this event but it’s already buried so I’ll copy/paste what I said there here because I think it’s relevant.

So since I had a full hour to play today I decided to log in and try out the new event since the servers were up. This is my feedback on that event.

First, as for the new “events so far” movie, while I really appreciate the recap now that the story has gotten so complicated, I found the combination of different resolutions/graphics really awful. Perhaps you should have left the high res CGI bits out and stuck with just one style for nice clean cohesion. Also, to be completely honest, and maybe I’m just dense, but I’m still not really clear on the story events. Too many players and relics and whatnot so I’m just kind of apathetic at this point.

When my quest took me to the Chamber of Heart, the little cutscene in there bugged out and had no sound so I have no idea what Magni and Thrall were saying. Ordinarily I wouldn’t mind, but on top of so many other bugs, it feels really bad.

When I got to the part of the quest where it finally sent me to the event locations, I was told the event just ended and a new one wouldn’t begin for an hour and 21 minutes. Only I’ll be busy with my sons dinner in an hour and 21 minutes so I guess no event for me today afterall? That timer is much too punishing. I feel like timed events were the worst part of dragonflight and I’m sad you are doubling down on this and to be completely honest, it really just makes me lose interest in the entire game very quickly.

I decided well hey, maybe I can at least farm a few mobs for the new currency… but upon killing a few I see they give only 1 residual memory each? And the elites, which die before you can even get to them only give 5? With items that cost like 20,000??? Also pretty much killed my enthusiasm and interest on the spot. I logged out for the day early.

I used to really enjoy prepatch and launch events but this time around everything is just too buggy, too grindy and too timegated. I think this finally reached a level where I just can’t have fun with it anymore. And that’s too bad. Because this game used to bring me so much joy.
