Should Unsynced content give rewards?

[AlphaFox]

Given the fact I can run Titan and Levi ex unsycned and still have over half the party go over, or having a majority of the team frozen by Shiva, I'd rather not be forced to go back into the headache of running at sync'd level. Now if they were to guarantee drops for doing so or higher chance to drop I can see people doing it but at the time where everyone just wants to farm for ponies, I can't see many really wanting to go back to the old way, having to carry the team just to get the pony and only saving grace being loot-master so those who slept most of the time can't ninja it and walk away.

I think the dev's current stance on this is nothing is holy or sacred after the content has become outdated. Also, if you look at all the responses on the diadem gear threads you'll see that the current consensus seems to be that nobody wants to do something hard simply for the sake that it's fun. You have to have a carrot at the end of the stick to get them to move and if the carrot isn't shiny enough then they will come here and complain.

I think you've got it upside down. If it were fun, people wouldn't need a reward. If people won't do it without a reward, then it isn't fun.

Maybe for folks like you and me but the opposite seems to be the reason why threads like "Diadem and Savage - I can't take it anymore." exist. I don't see the point about complaining about the exclusivity of any gear when for we all know it's just going to become outdated and something you can unsync for by the next expansion. If that were the case (and assuming what you mean is that Alexander Savage isn't fun) then why not wait until it gets toned down for it to actually be fun rather than bang your head against it?

[Kling-Klang]

Yes they should.
Thats the fun in getting a higher lvl cap, you can go back to old content and farm rewards you always wanted easily or help friends farm them.
In WoW I used to do that for skins and the mount from Stratholm when I was lvl 70. I like it that way.

Its old content, it goes out of style as the game goes on, part and parcel for MMO's, might as well let players who never got all the rewards from them before get some stuff.

Almost all the primals are easy to clear after some practice, most people run old raids/trials for glamour/vanity items anyway, might as well let them do it faster.

I was unsure, what this unsynced mode really was, but I already feared it to be this "God Mode On" system. I find it utterly ridiculous, that rewards for a serious challenge back then are now so easily obtainable.

Calling the content old isn't a valid argument to me, because for everyone, who hasn't done it yet it's still new, just a bit dated. I wouldn't mind though, if they increased the chance to receive the reward, maybe even to 100% (probably should vary from case to case). So you can be sure to get the reward, once you've beaten the challenge as intended.

[Avidria]

If it didn't, I probably wouldn't touch the content at all. As is I've avoided trying to get the other ponies (I have levi's) because I've had so many terrible pf groups that can't even clear unsynced. The few df ex primal runs I've been in were disastrous. Most of my clears were from full FC groups.

The rewards just aren't worth it otherwise.

I am confused, Are you asking if mounts drop from Unsynced Ex battles or want them to?

Or

Do you want to take them away, cause if you want them gone I say NO!!!

I say No because the content is old and nobody is gonna do them in the future when new content rolls out.

The only reason someone would want to remove rewards is a gloating rights, I have it you don't type of thing.

If that is the case I say no thanks, who cares if people didn't do it at 50 the ex battles are by choice, if a set party does them cool fine you beat it good for you move on you have a mount no need to try and hinder others because you feel extra special because you did it with a party who could co exist together, not like elites who kick people out or drama or leaving party each time they die.

idk about you I steered clear of that mess if I decide I want a mount later I'll do it with a unsynced party and they will be friends I don't have to deal with people fighting or kicking or judging I will have fun doing it my way.

Not like I lost before or got kicked from party just read from forums of the nightmares everyone had, I am sort of glad I didn't have to go through it.

I'm sorta for both sides of this. On one hand I feel that people should work for their clears and loot, but at the same time removing the rewards from unsynced would absolutely kill the content and farming. On the topic of SCoB Savage though, I really think they need to remove unsynced from it since the whole point of doing it was for the challenge and bragging rights.
