Arfus is massively disrespectful towards your players and their time

Not only that, you have to be a certain level to do these HOLIDAY EVENTS. Why?
Why do I need to be max just to slap a dude for less than a minute? Also, runs should be indef and not locked per character or at least 5-10 time runs a day. Anything but 1-2 times a day for some of us who don’t have a friggin fleet of alts.

Solutions:

  1. Tokens - Collect and buy what you want.
  2. Pity - The more you lose, the higher the chances next time.
  3. Indef runs - None of this alt army crap, sick of it.
  4. All levels can join - Sync us. (This should already be a thing though.)
  5. 5-10 times a day run - any character.

Anything but this CRAP we got now.

No. It’s not disrespectful if they don’t cave in to every request or demand made of them. They picked a different idea to try and address the problem than the one you wanted them to? that’s not disrespect. That’s people looking at the same situation, and arriving at different conclusions about what the best course of action is.

There is no disrespect here.

But they didn’t find a different idea to try… they made the one people are unhappy about even worse.

The bonus drop rate on the first toon of the day? how did they make that worse? It’s just a strict upgrade over what we had before.

Wow I mean people defending blizz’s bad decisions as if their life depended on it. Go off I guess. Just because this game has your soul doesn’t mean a normal person wouldn’t expect rewards in a game for the time they put in.

Can’t speak to the rest, but you don’t have to be max to do HH (on retail, at least). Level just affects the box tier you get, which I think has a minimal effect on the RNG numbers?

But I’ve been doing HH on alts ranging from levels 10 to 70, lmao.

That said, I do still agree with implementing tokens or otherwise letting us buy them with the candies, and just up the payout from HH exponentially to keep him relevant.

Please do tell me how it made it better. I’m over 50 runs in the last 3 days and nothing. All 4 curses every time. I’ve even leveled 6 toons that I’d been ignoring just to try to get this dog. That bonus drop rate? on ONE run per day?? Sorry… .that is a pathetic bonus in my mind.

Let me tell you how they made it worse. The added a new pet for a HOLIDAY (i.e., limited time to get it.) They gated it behind a ridiculously low RNG on top of the fact that only toons 60+ are eligible. For a PET.

So, in conclusion, they implemented yet ANOTHER issue that people have been pleading against for years. That just adds insult to injury. The removed the fun for many of us.
The created more unnecessary frustration.

You can defend them until you’re blue in the face but there is no defense for this.

Would you rather the pet have never been added than the way it was?

They took the new, improved DF holiday acquisition method for mounts, and applied it to a new pet. Considering the alternative was to do nothing, I don’t see how this is any worse than the alternative.

Also (compared to the mount), the drop rate doesn’t seem to be that low on 1st kills of the day.

Actually, yes. It’s like dangling the proverbial carrot.

… it’s putting something out there that has a snowball’s chance in hell of getting unless the RNG gods are with you.

That actually is a spicy take, better to give us nothing at all new, than to give us something new with an acquisition method some people don’t like.

May as well argue to remove all existing low drop rate mounts/pets.

You really need to learn to debate.

You 're the one coming out here saying it’s better to give players nothing new than to give them something new in a way you don’t like.

How many years have I played? Never got HH reins.

I just don’t care to waste time doing that event over and over.

Also don’t have this new pet either. I do HH 1x a day if I have time. That’s it.

Exactly. You either get it or you don’t

No reason to get bent out of shape over it.

You were just ahead of your time… a true visionary. Everyone else should have listened to you… :smirk:

You need to READ as well. That is not what I said. I said I would rather have not had it added as it was as it adds to MY frustration. It’s causing ME to spend wait times in queues that I could be doing something else with.

And don’t start with the “well, you don’t have to do it” stuff… there are things in game that YOU want, there are things in game that I want. That doesn’t make you right or me wrong. I present logical explanations for my feelings. You might try that sometimes as opposed to opinions such as “in a way you don’t like.”

I’m done. There’s no rationalizing with irrational.

I did too. Got the dog… its ok… he has a cool echoing bark.

So you’d be ok if it was added for other players with this acquisition method, but it was made unobtainable for you specifically?

I’m trying to work out how this whole argument you’re making isn’t just “GIVE ME THING NOW”

And this is why I don’t tie having fun to any drop in this game.

People are here to troll. There is no rationalizing with people who are here to just troll. I agree with you on what you are saying here. But sadly people come here to troll, derail, and then false flag you. People are immature and it shows.

People flag you because it doesn’t line up to what they themselves believe in. Your opinion is different from there’s so they flag bomb. It shows immaturity. You can’t reason with immature people its impossible.
