That's IT for the Mining Quests!? CEREAL!? - erm...spoils?-

WHY DID THEY CHANGE THEIR EYES!?

[Kiroh]

Frankly I don't know why SE changed the story/lore around classes and jobs. There is nothing about the new lore that in any way contradicts, or even really conflicts with the old lore. I loved the old stories, the lore was just so much more palpable and rich and when surprises came, they were genuinely "wtf just happened" surprises. (A Fruitful Murder for example was a gigantic mind**** for me on weaver, and Something in the Soup was a really weird one for CUL.) I also loved the elementals/wildlings story in the Conjurer quest lines, and I'm pissed off that I never found out who that Conjurer was from Coerthas before he was taken by the elementals and lost his memory! I loved Nenekko and I wish she would make a reappearance and the lead excavator at one of the Sil'dih ruins!

Heck, some of the things even fill in plot holes created when the ARR storyline phased them out, like Oha-Sok explaining literally everything about the fall of Amdapor and the 6th umbral disaster, and subsequently the rise of the Gelmorran civilization in its wake.

Yeah, I've had a hard time accepting the new DoH/L quests, so much so that I've only been able to bring myself to finish about half of them despite having all 50's in those classes since 1.xx and of the 5 or 6 I've done, almost all of them were for the tools, not really caring about the quests themselves. I think most people just buy (I mean what the hell..? What happened to the non tradeable quest and leve only items of old, the things that ensured you actually earned that completion and reward?) the items they need to hand in and skip all the dialogue and cutscenes.

I do appreciate the fact that you now get a nice close up view of the items you make, including the non equipment items that you can't really see anywhere else. That gives those items a lot more weight, really makes them feel real and like you really did something cool.

But it doesn't make up for the the butchery they've done to the stories and characters.

I just began my lvl 53+ Miner quests.. still hoping they make more of an appearance (Though not holding my breath)

And don't tell me if they are or not XD I want to be surprised or sadly not surprised when the time comes.



And if they AREN'T...I still will plead for their return! I mean come ON! They were too amazing NPC's NOT to reuse!
