    Not really. Because the rewards from all of the above will be obsolete next patch.

    With that logic, you won't do anything next patch either because the patch after that will make the 2.4 stuff obsolete as well.
    In short terms, you never actually play the game "because it will be obsolete next patch".

    By this logic we should NEVER EVER bother playing any MMO because anything you do will become "obsolete" at some point.

    That's some pretty flawed logic. If I could, I'd give you the "worse logic" award on this forum. What's the point of even playing an MMO, like some have said, if you have an attitude like that? Why do any of it? An MMO is always about progression - about getting that new body armour, or new weapon from the next big update. By your logic, none of that is worth it.

    You are right a mmo should always have new things to get from the next update.

    This issue is when you are in a cycle.

    Work to get BIS gear => Update (All gear is worthless) => Work to get BIs gear => Update (all gear is worthless) => Work to get BIS gear => Update (All gear is worthless) => Repeat

    This is one reason so many people are quitting the game. The life cycle of gear and content is lower then any other AAA mmo out there. Yes SE is releasing patches fast and they are solid patches for the most part... but they are also negating everything just as fast which is really bad.

    People want new rewards. But they also do not want other things they worked on to be worthless so fast. In my opinion all gear should last at the min. 1.5-2 yrs. Of course the issue is the game has ultra simplified stats, gear handouts in everything, and no time sinks outside relic quest.

    Game needs horizontal growth badly. This vertical only progression is horrible.
