A Better Lockout Removal Compromise

A big Heeeeellllll nooooo! lol

Legacy players didn't get anything special on their relics from 1.0. And they invested a lot more time and effort into them than current 2.0'ers.

I don't think anyone who completed lolBCoB deserves a damn thing.
Completing 1 FIGHT more than the community does not make them "Saviors of the world".

Heck I wouldn't even give them Maat's sock or his dirty draws.

It's standard in other games that top tier raids/activities reward exclusive vanity stuff. People from 1.0 should have had something more to show for their relics, they at least got an exclusive mount and tattoo.

Do they reward the vanity items with a time limit? like only first 200 people to get clear get the vanity item?
I wouldn't know, I'm an FF fan and don't care much for most MMOs, especially WoW.

Not so much a people limit as much as a time limit. GW2 has some good examples. The jubilee event that occurred about five months back had a vanity pet only rewarded to people who could beat the hardest boss in the arena portion of the event. The rest of the rewards were easily accessible, but there was just a tiny minion only accessible to the most skilled players while the event was active.

Wow has an abundance of these types of rewards, such titles, achievements, and mounts that were only obtainable while the content was relevant.

I think stuff like a title or insignia is not game breaking. Anything like mounts and minions should stay available after nerfs.

Wow generally does it based on a content patch when they do it. If you beat the boss during that content cycle (before the next raid comes out) you're rewarded an achievement and a mount.

You realize this could just as easily apply to Legacy players' gear... Legacy players could just as easily receive a Legacy face-paint, etc.

I'd like to buy you a beer.

Your reward is being able to start 6-9 right away and personal satisfaction.

It sounds really insecure to get this hung up over it. Worried that you won't get 6-9 loot fast enough?

Not so true, it's easy to get full ivl 90 gear without ever stepping into coil. People just have to run T1-5 the first day of 2.2 and then T6-9 is completely accessible.

I find these threads hilarious really, I cleared content in other games during the first wave, I didn't need any feeling of achievement other than being among the first. After I cleared it and had it on farm, who the hell cared if it was made easier? That just made it easier for me to gear up alts or farm for a specific piece that might have been a lower item level, but had amazing itemization, or run GDKP raids to make some gold.

Was I among the best geared on the server on my main? Yes. Did that give me leave to lord it over other people? No, that shit was just stupid. Nobody but you should care when or how you did something, period.
