    Arrow Remove Raid Timer after 20th Run?

    You still use 20 timers per life (or wait 3 days between each which is ridiculous already) but after your 20th run it should remove the requirement for a timer.

    This is especially useful for end-game content such as Shroud, Hound, and TS.

    I have nothing to do now aside from hit the To Curse the Sky LFMs out of shear boredom or pay for another Legendary Raid Timer Bypass to show off in a raid I don't even need to do anymore.

    I still think the raid timer should be less then 3 days.

    Heroic raids 1 day timer
    Epic raids 2 day timer
    Legendary raids are only epic raids, they are a joke and insult by the label that forces them to require a separate timer to reset (put them on sale already). They should be 2 days as well.

    Dropping the timer all together after 20 runs would just make people run 20 runs of each raid and then over farm the raid if they want something out of it. This would be very insulting to people who have invested more then a few months (back in the day), or weeks (with timers) farming out items.
    I would have a sig, but Someone might be offended by it so I will just list characters.
    Vicinity, Proximity, and far to many bank toons too list.
    -Sorry to any bank toons that are offended by me not listing mine-

    Timer Bypasses were and are a clear case of Short Term Monetization winning over Long Term Replayability. They should never have been introduced in the first place and yes Raids should have had their timers reduced to 36 hrs {or even 24 hrs}.

    I will NEVER buy a Raid Timer Bypass!
    If I get one in a Daily Dice Roll it will go on the AH for just lower than the lowest Plat Buyout!
    If anyone offers me one to run a raid twice in a row I will continue to say no thanks {that's if I haven't already left group while they're typing the offer!}.

    Raid Timer Bypasses are a big minus for DDO and should be removed from sale immediately {those already in game would dwindle away over time.}.

    They would have been alright if they had a timer on the bypass use, like a three day cooldown before you can use another one.

    That way they could be used for the occasional "oops I forgot I was on timer" or "I never turned in for end reward" scenario, instead of having no restrictions on them and being dupable and tradable.

    "I never turned in for end reward" scenario shouldn't even be a thing!
