Why are they nerfing content already?

why would they not nerf content?

t1-5 is old hat. there's no point in denying it to people once t6-9 is out and all the serious raiders have moved on to bigger and better things.

I for one am happy with the system. New content comes out to keep those interested in progression busy, while old content becomes more accessible to those who can't/haven't done it yet.

I'd get bored pretty quick with a system where I get gear and it's the best forever. What is there to work towards after you get the best gear? Why have the best gear if there is no new challenge with which to utilize it?

You act like there were actually bees in the fight in the first place.

*high five* Somebody else gets it

Then transfer to his server and get it.

Depending how much he had, I'd totally make a few characters there, load them up, and jump them all to my home server.

The hell is wrong with people, I'm surprised how much patience the developers of this game have. They are giving you NEW content for all those leet hardcore players that wiz by the game at lightspeed. They are nerfing OLD content that you as a pro player won't do anymore anyways because it's insignificant so that people who don't play as much or aren't as gifted holding a controller or playing with a keyboard, have the option to see more of the game. This way everyone is a winner.

I know the truth though, these threads are created for the 'oh no now everyone will have the gear i worked so hard to get' reason
If that's the case I'm happy they make it easier to get i90 stuff, it makes us i90 people a reason to get the ilv 115 stuff etc instead of being stuck like so many other games.

*Undeniable truth*

Well, you need to take into account that for those people, it's not enough for them to beat things as quickly as possible to whine that there's no content: they need to step on the "noobs" too. Giving those bums a chance to not stay so far behind and do the same things in the game as the glorious them is clearly an outrageous insult!

I wonder about the future if a new player enters the game, plays up until 50 then plays the latest i55 dungeon that hands out i200/300/400+ tomes for the latest gear and pretty much skips a huge amount of content that was in the game previously, challenging or not. I fear that the future players might not even play older content, like asking someone decked out in the latest max ilevel gear a question about Wanderer's Palace and having them go "what's that?".

[Moirear]

oh well at least demon wall will be more like the actual demon wall bees were never in his fight!

There never were any bees to begin with, only gnats. [/smartass]

I think ppl seem to forgot that they are also looking at ppl who leave after 1-2 wipes in primal fights, lack of patience from vet players, things that say that they don't have time for new players to learn, adapt, get better at the game. Usually those who say that they don't like the idea are the same ppl who won't have the time to help the casual players, that's how I see things. At the same time ppl don't want to go through that old content the moment new content comes in. Do u think ppl will go back to coil 1-5 once they have the gear they want? How about extreme primals, hard mode primals, etc. Are vet players gonna go back and guide constant new players to learn the mechanics and help them get better? I know ppl will say yeah, but how long do u think that will last?

Said things

Pretty much its some weird insecurity that a few mmo player have about new players catching them or not having to do the same amount of work they did to get gear etc.. I used to be like that then I grew up.

The first expansion isn't even out yet. There's no point in doing challenging content when they nerf it before it's completely outdated.

Really, really bad sign for the direction the game is going to take imo.

Get out then. We need less players with your attitude.

[HeroSamson]

Reason because its a smart move.

They don't want it to end up like final fantasy 11, where new people join and the older players already beat stuff and didn't do other content, they tried to fix it with 1000 exp bonus if you helped with Cop but nobody came to help, then same with the past everyone did the stuff didn't come back dynamis same thing.

You have a lot of players who couldn't catch up with anyone else in game so what else is there to do but quit the game SE loses revenue and they aren't gonna do that because your subscription doesn't out weigh the many, so if you quit see you later but if not quit crying.
