Since when is grinding anything fun ;P (to be quite honest, the glow from them gives me migraines. I prefer the more subtly glow end game weapons like with UAT and i95 weapons)

I "ground" up to rank 40 to realize PvP gear was useless in frontlines. Did that make me rage quit? No. Was it upsetting? Sure, but I got over it quickly. Been doing it slow this time from 40-45. At least I got some glamours out of the equipment I purchased lol

Such is the life of online games. If I got mad over every little thing wrong with the way MMO typically operate, I would not be playing them and any time I did get mad enough I did quit them. For me, life's too short to worry about intangible online content that constantly evolves and changes. I will roll with the changes as they come good or bad. Lol I stuck with LOTRO up to Riders of Rohan if that's saying anything lol
