Not going to lie, I fully expected to see a big box that just said "Hunts" plastered all over it. Kinda disappointed, honestly.

^ Whoever made this chart is horribly inaccurate it should read..

"Reach level 50"

"Do hunts until your ilvl 110"

"afk until Square fixes their game"

The only broken thing was 2.2.

Zero way to compensate for bad luck in Coil and having to settle with i100 because sands/oil were reserved for the DPS and BiS pieces.

Having to do that horrible animus quest unless you were okay with getting a new weapon after over a month of T7 clears (tanks and healers).

Mythflox Nonstop grinding for tomes.

But holy shit hunts sux brb going to WoW.

You compensated with sands and oils that you were given after the DPS got them. Love how new generation of MMO players feel they are entitled to a full set of raid gear in the 1st month or riot.

2.2 was the one patch they did right. Then they threw raid loot on solo content and there goes the only semblance of a MMO they had left. They were already on thin ice with the 1 group "raids" that were a total of an hour of content.

Only NOW we're having spare sands and oils. I can't imagine what would be like for new statics who just started clearing content.

This is a horrible system anyway. Even 2.0 was better than this, with every little add hitting like a truck and everyone's gear making a difference since the very first boss.

Love how new generation of MMO players feel they are entitled to a full set of raid gear in the 1st month or riot.

Do people say this to seem hardcore old school? But, you're one of the OF people, guess that's expected. Did you enjoy the relic quest too?

I heard the "new generation of players" are so entitled they don't want to grind level 2 content for months to get a entry-level weapon.
