Dev blog: New Feast rewards

[Awha]

Snip . . .

As someone that has many unique items in other games, even sold one account to another player due to the items it had. I understand the value exclusive items have especially PvP related ones. I also understand the commitment one has to devote to ascertain the skill level and game sense to climb the ranks and reach the point of being a top tier player. In the end having something exclusive it is nice and knowing you have an item that no longer possible to get is cool. Nevertheless, let us be real though outside of those reasons please point out how providing others the same reward detracts from your own accomplishments obtaining said reward. Only person that can devalue a personal accomplishment is if the one that earned it, since said people has to let an outside factors detract from the value. Baring that in mind I will to consed that having an exclusive reward does provide motivation for some to take part in an actively.

So if I may ask do you object to timed exclusives, now I know they will never do this I am just wondering if you could point how this inherttly detracts from your value of your reward / accomplishment. For example the reward from the previous is made obtaining through some form of currency only obtained through ranked play after the next seasons rewards have already been sent to the top 100 players. This means that the top 100 players to who the reward would have two seasons of having that exclusive mount and as long as they keep reaching top 100 for every season they will have access to the exclusive rewards. Could even take it one step further and make a new currency that is tied to the rank system for that season. In this case when the rewards are granted to the top 100 for the next season said players can start to earn currency only granted only during that season by participating in the feast which can be spent to get the previous season rewards at the end of the season. Which means that the previous season rewards would only be available to earn during the following season since the currency is tied that that season.

Kindly could you please explain to me how the system above detracts from directly from your accomplishment, you still have your timed exclusive and as long as you keep getting top 100 you will always be ahead of the curb from those causal players. Either way I have no dog in this fight since I personally do not take part in an activity unless I enjoy what I am doing despite the rewards outside of extreme cases. Still interested to see how such system devalues your rewards in the grand scheme of things, since if that aspect of notoriety is important to you all you would have to do is keep getting top 100 each season.
