I'll follow OP and Arcon in this thread, think I can call myself *cough* joe pink but I would like to see a bit more challenge added to the game. I need a reason to keep playing this game, i dont play for gear persé (although yes at some point I would like to get some shinies too but I'm a patient person, not all good things come over night) I prefer playing with friends in challenging content that asks for concentration and teamwork and yes challenging hard content should have better rewards then a grindfest. Also personally, I think the excuse that "if you want to make this game harder dont get buffs/atma/etc." is a very week argument. People opposing the idea of more challenge should also stop acting like they talk for the whole community cause you dont.
