Why does this game make major things so easy and minor things so hard?

Savage on the other hand is not a reward. It is content to play through. The rewards from savage are the gear. It requires a major time and effort investment in playing savage to get the reward of items.

There's going to probably be less overall time investment and effort getting savage rewards than many of the glamour or alt ones. A lot of times SE had to give up and just let us have the items; minions like the red panda originally only came from HW leveling dungeons, and dropped so ridiculously infrequently that they cost more than the best crafted gear. SE just gave it too people from POTD. Or they dump the mats into scrip gear, new world glamour items I think.

edit: if anything some of the glamour items are ridiculous. I have a set of ultima horns from prey online that I only legitimately got because I have insomnia and tend to be up at 3 am when the darn thing spawns. And that's only because it is uncapped and can be lowmanned with a few 70s. You probably will see more people with savage gear than the spotted gear from couerlregina.

It's just odd sometimes, and not a little annoying.
