We don't need them anymore.

Once again, since we are a few pages in... as long as they keep a Replica label on subsequent copies and keep the originals as the originals to tell apart, I am fine. If you are one of the fellas that "just wanted the look of it", you literally only win here or have no dog to lose in this fight if you already got it.

If you wanted it "just so I and a select few others have it and nobody else", no offense - go touch grass. This just means you wanted the vanity of being looked at for something others can't get, not be proud of having achieved Top 100. I do not count you among my peers if that is the case.

And to add onto this, I am not your peer in any case. I hated ranked feast.
I was a PvP casual who was manipulated into spending my time on this competition because SE told me it was the only way
I wouldn't have bothered otherwise. I spent so much time and stress on that, and to be told it was for nothing is upsetting. It's that plain and simple

If you achieved Top 100, you achieved Top 100, whether you liked it or not is of no consequence - I did not like Feast much either.

Was it truly all for nothing? You still had it for god knows for how long and enjoyed having it (presumably), it is still yours, it will not be taken away from you. If you think that just because other players will have the same or something similar to you all the years later diminishes you having it all the time and having worked for it, that's a problem only you can solve because the issue here is just mentality.

It's not that others have it, it's that I was essentially lied to and wasted all that commitment
Maybe if I didn't have to go through all that I'd be just as happy, but here we are

Where's the lie? You were offered a reward for PvP'ing. You got the reward. And they aren't taking it away from you.

The lie is that it was the only opportunity for me to get it which was the only reason I participated at all
If I could've just waited and skipped the whole ordeal, like everyone now gets to enjoy, that would've been what I did
I still feel sick remembering how cringe of a month grinding that game mode was, never have I been so pointlessly stressed before. I can still remember it like it was yesterday, even the dangerous player names to look out for each match

You'd still have to grind it.

You still have to spend Wolf Marks and Crystal Trophies for most of the current pvp rewards. So where's the missing ordeal for everybody else?

Friendly remidner that YoshiP goes back on what he says more often than not. Remember when housing timers weren't going to be a thing? When the earring (I forget which one it was) that was promised to be exclusive got recycled into a mogtome event? That X job was going to be reworked and then it...wasn't?

I think the old Feast rankings pages are still up aren't they? From back then? So your name will always be there and you can be proud of that. If you well and truly earned Top 100 (and I believe you did as often as you post in there), then that's something to be proud of too. Plus these other versions are replicas, and you'll alwys have the real thing. I mean ,I don't know who looks at those and goes "oh, it's just a replica. pah" but /shrug.

Crystal Trophies & wolf marks are a joke... the season pass can be maxed out in a single day via casual CC spam, how does that remotely compare?

I participated back then too and it truly was sickening, physically, to grind so hard after something. I had to give it up as I was supporting a friend with cancer at the time and that was obviously my priority. Fortunately she's now been in remission some time and I can try again, but no game should ever affect your real life to that point.

[Eesh]

never have I been so pointlessly stressed before.

This is a video game. It's all pointless. The prestige you earn. The pixels you get. It's all nothing and it's as pointless now with the change as it was before.

Your values here are a bit misaligned if your takeaway is that you expected having to spend a month grinding an MMO 10 years ago was going to forever crystallize as a prestigious achievement you could forever hold onto.
