Don't like the Cash Shop? Get over it. It's here to stay. Personally, I could care less and will continue to pay my 9.99 USD for my subfee and unless something truly awesome is added to the CS, I won't be making any purchases there as I couldn't care less about having additional minions, or an overpriced mount, or any other CS items that I would have to pay additional to obtain.
So what you are saying is since it doesn't effect you it's not a big deal, right? Wrong because SE is testing the waters here. Hypothetically speaking let's assume Slepnir and Odin minions aren't in game. Now let's assume SE just announced Odin HM with new i120 weapons and you can buy Odin EX version from the cash shop that includes Slepnir and Odin minion. It's the same concept because it's just "fluff" items but now it actually effects the majority instead of minority. Content is content whether it's PvE, PvP, or Sandbox.
