I don’t understand how the same people arguing for exclusivity of things like the Slime Cat, AotC mounts, etc. are the same ones arguing for them to make this easier.
Veilstrider is meant to be a reward for outdoor players who actively play in the content they liked. It’s the first time we’ve been given a reward for us.
And suddenly, because now it affects you, you’re against FOMO, but when it affects everyone that isn’t you, you just tell us to suck it up? (Not aimed at you, OP, the people who I’m referring to should know who they are lol)
Asking for them to remove this requirement is like asking them to put all AotC mounts back into the game, removing the time limit on Keystone Mastery, Gladiator, etc. Because those all have the same time limit to do, just unlike those, the timegate is longer on this. Like KSM you won’t be able to get the last week of the season, because the second affix won’t rotate back in, for instance. There is a point in the PvP season where Gladiator/etc. will be near impossible to reach as well, and I see PvPers complain about that all the time.
You didn’t have foresight and you want to remove something for it. This, again, is like if we started petitioning them to bring back every KSM, AotC, etc. mount becuase we didn’t start it in time.
But as I said in another topic - the difference is you don’t view outdoor content as real content, so you think there’s no harm in changing it. However, this is not only belittling the content, but the players who participate (same with when someone belittles LFR) Meanwhile, the players this content is made for, do view it as real content and most of us had most, if not all, of the requirements done when it was released, and those who didn’t have been working on it and had ample time to catch up.
I am vehemently against FOMO, but while Blizzard is forcing FOMO in other forms of content, they should do the same for outdoor content, so that outdoor players have a reward for themselves as well, no different than AotC, Mythic Mounts, Hall of Fame, Keystone Master, etc.
