    Since I got 2 months to do it, I'm taking my time with it. I'm going with getting 15 Legendary Medals a day to keep it not so annoying. I already got 5 weapons. I should be done in about 2 weeks. No big deal.

    5 weapons in as well. It's a copy of the least painful grind of the ARR relic grind. You get into a rhythm and zone out a bit, and before you know, you have 15 medals.

    The fact we have to call it the least painful part of a horrible idea does not exactly bode well. I'm surprised people are going all the way and trying to get every weapon when they likely will make it 100% drop rate on the last two weeks or something. If they don't I'd imagine there will be a lot of unhappy people.

    I don't see why people would be unhappy, they know about the grind and how long they have to do it. They have plenty of advance warning and time to get it done if they really want them all.

    I just got my 10th weapon today. I am doing about 30-45 legendary medals a day.

    Everything is a mindless grind in this game. If you want something, you have to work for it. Same thing with raiding, mounts, raid or glamour gear, raid or glamour weapons. It's all a grind.

    There's a difference between doing a raid and running around in lower level areas doing upwards of 800 fates for some glamour weapons for a limited time event. Something needs to change in that formula.

    I think you missed the part where they said it should be fun... because a grind can be a grind, I'm not gonna disagree on that. However, there are grinds that can be fun, but if I have to resolve to switching on Netflix... yeah, it's not exactly fun.

    I agree with that. I think it's really boring and lazy content.
