I'm actually quite happy with the rewards from Zilart/CoP/WotG. ToAU rings can suck it after like a million hours doing the missions. WotG earring though was sort of fail. It could have been a bit better if we could have chosen any of the options to combine, or perhaps a bit more stats than +4 which is laughable to say the least, regardless of that #2 stat being a bit more impressive. Still, I'm not complaining too much but they could have done far better after making us wait three years and a trillion missions and quests. I see far more impressive augments on add on gear than I do expansion mission gear and that is just wrong and those WotG rings do not make up for it. It feels more like perk event gear than reward gear.
And I stress I'm really not complaining too much here as I use my WotG earrings quite often but that doesn't make them "good enough" for the effort we put into getting them which is considerably more than CoP could ever dream of. It just didn't have any serious encounters to block you until the very end which was made trivial with Alexander but still. 67 missions and quests, three years, 1 hard encounter, and your reward is one of:
Acc +4, Att +4, RACC +4, RATT +4, MACC +4, MAB +4, HP 25, MP 25 and one of:
Latent effect: Regain +1, Latent effect: Refresh +1, Occ. grants dmg. bonus based on TP +5%, TP Bonus +25, Occ. maximizes Magic Accuracy +3%, Counter +3, Occ. quickens spellcasting +3%, Occ. inc. resist to all stat. ailments +5%
when it should have been, based entirely on what we did get, what options exist currently, and our levels:
Acc +10, Att +10, RACC +10, RATT +10, MACC +10, MAB +10, HP 50, MP 50
and one of:
Latent effect: Regain +1 maybe 2, Latent effect: Refresh +1 maybe 2, Grants dmg. bonus based on TP +10%, TP Bonus +50, Maximizes Magic Accuracy +10%, Counter +10 and why this is here and not TH is beyond me, Quickens spellcasting +10%, inc. resist to all stat. ailments +20%
Point is, my time was better spent watching paint dry than doing WotG missions for three years. Love ya Lill and all that jazz, but your story wasn't worth my moonshine or moonshade or whatever earring. And it's not okay to put this on the backburner to work on down the road. Put down voidtimesink and work on older content. This was supposed to be the year that we have a jolly ole time fixing older content. So let's do that before the year is up and stuff gets thrown back on the backburner for another few years. The way voidwatch has been designed so far people are still a few years off before they get what they want with CURRENT VOIDWATCH SO IT'S COVERED, trust me.
Just do not get me started on ToAU rings. Mine still rots in my MH to this day.
