So It took 112 Air Souls to get the Air Spirit, and now I am at 108 Frosty Souls and still no Tide Spirit. If we do the math here… 15 mins x 220 = 55 hours of sitting in game, unable to play the game because of the STUPID 15 min timer on these items. On top of this these mobs are intentionally designed to be as annoying as absolutely possible with preventing you from channeling the item in the first place without STANDING here waiting for them to finish their multiple interrupt chain cycle so you can fit in a cast. After this many tries it’s just no longer fun anymore. Can we PLEASE stop designing gameplay that does nothing but waste the players time and piss us all off? This is casual secondary stuff… it should not be this ungodly painful…
You’re free to do other things in that 15 minutes.
I know, but by the time i get anything else going… It’s already time to swap back over. This is literally my last droppable pet that I can farm atm =\
Tbh, it is their job to waste our time as much as possible.
Just what do you think a game is?
Well that makes me glad I didn’t start doing that thing. My GM recently got the Zapthrottle, I must check with her and see how she is going.
lol remember when the CD was longer? Didn’t it get nerfed?
But yea, it’s still stupid. Why this thing even has a CD to begin with makes no sense. Will the economy suddenly crumble if people can spam the elementals or what? Cause if that’s the case then I shouldn’t tell you about the rousing elemental bot farms that having been going on ever since the expac started, lmao.
The “pain in the posterior” aspect is intentional, they want the material requirement for the built items to mean something. It is very annoying.
I move from one elemental to another, the individual Encased souls types have 15 minute cool downs but it’s not shared among the 4 types.
What they really need is to reduce the 5 minute cooldown on the device itself. If they keep the 15 minutes on the individual captured souls, that’s fine, but we should at least be able to make a circuit of the four types in that 15 minutes.
Reduce the device cooldown to 3 minutes and you could farm souls on a circuit non-stop.
