Can we please go back and drop the cost of these items? 25 is way to high for an event that feels like trash to participate in. 5 was nice but if that was too fast then 10, 15 at most.
The entire event is a literal death ball… you ghost run to the Loa, you focus on sniping kills or melee unga bunga insta kills to build coins, die, respawn on top of a person as a group to get your instant kill then ghost run to the chained spirit by the turn in to turn in while immune and repeat.
Locking BIS items behind this at a high cost is pretty brain dead.
considering the only one I’m home for that I can do (besides on the weekend but I prefer to go outside then) is at 9 PM. So I get 1 shot a day to work towards my BIS weapon, I also need to hope the group I get stuck with isn’t terrible at the game and respawn solo constantly.
Locking BiS stuff behind a cluster fk of an event that only happens for 30 minutes every 3 hours just sucks.
Why are you ok with things in a video game not being fun?
It literally takes 2 or 3 bloodmoons to garnish 25 coins if you have a group that knows how to rez together, stay together. Doesnt matter what the comp is, 5 players blasting on one is enough to get at least 30 copper if near boss.
Anyways, i average 800 copper each game. But i do agree, bloodmoon isnt exactly ‘fun’ simply because you need to be grouped to have fun, and if youre grouped, you arnt having fun because you have to babysit your team and wait for them to gather which ruins the fun out of it.
What we really needed was a pug version. Where its FFA no groups. Or its faction vs faction. Because as it stands, trying to solo is impossible because everyone is in a group of 5s and there is no incentive to do it solo.
That would actually be 4 games technically if you take your average. So 7 times doing an event that is just annoying to patriciate in just so I can actually go and do things I want to do since there are no alt items for one and the last 2 bosses out of ST for the other.
That would be better but you’d still end up with grouping. I saw 2 groups of horde kill trading each other last night that would turn and kill anyone that came towards them as a 10 man.
Also you’re talking about doing an event for 7 days and being done with it forever while also getting your bis items. If your bis was in a raid you could be waiting and hoping for 10 weeks to get it, putting in a little bit of effort to be bised out isn’t that bad.
MMOs are about having SOME time sinks involved and having a lot going on irl usually leads to falling behind in some way. Nothing is wrong with that, but it’s just something you have to accept for not sweating it out 1 weekend/day to get it.
