The Rising - Another disappointing event

[Sotaris]

Odd to judge the event before you've even done it.
There's more to it than just the item rewards at the end.

I guess you didn't read the replies. This has already been adressed:

you should always start out by expecting nothing and then be pleasantly surprised by what you get.

So that invalids anyone wanting minions and use them cause a larger group does not?

Also, just because someone doesn't summon a minion doesn't mean they don't care about or like minions. It's a collectable with ties to the game and story and overall experience, even if you never use it.

I really like my Phoenix mount. It's actually one of my favourites, but I almost never use it. It's a little too big and obnoxious for me, and I don't really enjoy mounts that only fly but never walk even when on "the ground."

Sure and I can understand that 100%, my comment was more towards the person saying minion is useless. Implying they are wasted on players.

Yeah for sure! The quoting system here sort of scuffed that. I was more providing an example to your point than trying to refute anything you said.

Yeah I'm kinda sad to see that all of the events lately have had zero glam
But I mean, on the flip side. I am flat out of glam space, and I really like the umbrella. So.
Far more disappointed about the summer event than this one. But hey, at least I got some corn.
Mmm. Corn.

maybe the designers want variety? we have to churn out another piece of gear? ughghghghghghghgh don't they have enough already?

I prefer a polished expansion. These seasonal events are meaningless by comparison.

That assumes it takes lot of manpower to create the events and rewards. But in princible i agree.

Can still voice our disappointment and critism though.
