PETITION against ToD changes

[Salkanor]

Pfft, it's been above freezing for the past few days. No coats needed.

Besides, I don't hang out with those guys from 103.

What is "103"?

Thirdly. There is no real past experience setting a precedent for what you describe. When have they changed loot turn ins to be easier after the fact? Tapestries? Tome pages? Shield Pieces? Dragon Scales? Invader Tokens? Adamantine Ore turn in?
...

Actually, I remember them increasing the drop rate of tapestries back when I was farming the Orchard for them and selling them on the AH.

Well for one. It's not in the release notes. A change like an increase in boot ingredient drops is not likely to be a stealth change.

Secondly. There were no dev clarifications. If they could have stymied the tide of negativity by claiming the boots would be a little more common, they would have.

And finally... Just because it makes sense and would be a good idea doesn't mean it's possible, let alone likely, that a change will happen. Usually a change being a good idea means it's actually less likely to happen.

Turbine won't back off of design decisions until they're PROVEN to be bad. They give almost no credence to theorycraft.

Whatever... go on all you want....

Interesting...there is no "103" radio station where I live.

It doesn't bother me that much to get boots for all my toons with the exception that
it seems like TOD has been run less and less lately (both in guild runs and LFMs).
I think this will impact the frequency and time that it takes to get a group together.
So for that fact
/signed

But while we are at it, can we add more topics to the petition like lets add

DT armor lottery system pretty much the same as boots, grind, grind, grind.

Teleporters, I want more around like in Amrath, Meridia, Reaver Refuge (man that fly thing really sucks, /death)

Festival coin turn-ins, click, click, click, click, click....I give up, needs to be easier.
Waste your life away turning in copper coins.

Link?

Signed.

Making a raid requirement longer and more grindy does not equal harder, it just equals more annoying. Making eveyrone run 4 quests 100-200 times to get boots on everyone is fun?

Is anyone going to accept a cleric in a raid where they might 'go missing' the instant they roll a 1? No, so no one without boots gets in to any good raid.

And yes - Add Dimension Anchor.

yeah i was one of the first to post a dont like the changes post for TOD

so regardless of all the trolling

/signed against TOD changes ... it was stupidest move turbine made since implamenting monk and not including greensteel handwraps.

I won't take my cleric in there now. Im flagged for ToD and despite the changes not live, don't see too many lfms for it now as it is on Argo. While the quests were challenging, and somewhat different I found them to be tedious, and only in the case of helping friends and fellow guildmates out, don't rerun the quests. Certainly "forcing me to run them in the hope pieces for boots drop will turn me off even further. Adding more grind to endgame raids, is making me log in less and less already. I log in any less, and I may as well cancel my VIP sub.
