Given how many people tie their entire sense of achievement, accomplishment and sense of progress to the PVP rewards: they're probably not wrong. If they put a magna roader variant anywhere else in the game, how many PVPers would just rage quit then and there because their content is no longer exclusive, unique and special? Because just going by attitudes in this thread, it seems like a lot would. Which is why I reiterate my stance of exclusive content being the nadir of MMOs - it breeds this absolutely awful mentality. But it does make the the comparisons to ultimate loot even more fun because the ultimate items have always just been glowing reskins of previous items you can get through other activities. And they certainly don't go away after a brief period of availability.

And I don't know, if they started adding more reskins of relic weapons, or more variants of mounts I have and like, I don't think I'd be hard pressed to be upset that more people were getting more stuff. Power to them. I'd probably start trying to get them myself, because when I like something I try to get it: I still haven't given up hope on getting the frontlines mounts or the hope that one day they'll put some PVE variants of those in-game because I can never have enough Allegan balls up in this place (or hey, how about some of those cubes? Give us the cubes, square!). So it's really, really, weird to see a subsect of the playerbase with this absolute crab mentality who would pitch a fit if square added a magna roader anywhere else.
