Level of difficulty on getting achievements and gear

From what I have seen you have had to adjust mount drop rates and the relic process. For the mounts drop the whistle everytime( you will get more people to go for the mounts) in the extreme primals. For triple triad cards make the drop rate faster and quicker. In 2.0 we could level characters at a decent rate because we had hunting log, fates, and doing a dungeon a couple times to get to the next level but here in 3.0 you have fates and dungeons(really cant do new fates alone comfortably and you do a dungeon 8 to 10 times over and over to get to the next level- in my opinion make it easier to do new fates if you do them alone and increase the experience points in the new dungeons so all we have to do at most is 3 of the same dungeon to get to the next level). Gathering and Crafting gear is ridiculous on how you have to get the gear for level 60, because like I said before eliminate time frame on gathering and create crafting npc's for materials.
