I am not opposed to making things difficult or hard to obtain so long as it serves a reason to as hard/grindy as it is. grinding for a powerful weapon, ok sounds good. challenging yourself as a player and take on end game raiding to get which at the time it is implemented the best gear fair enough, but this is an event we are talking about. not some super powerful weapon or armor that is the best in the game. what purpose does extending the time it takes to complete this event serve? i can't think of a single good reason to make it brain dead boring the event is. even is the event was reduced to having one legendary medal for each fate completed it would still be lazily done. the only reason i can see it being shoved into fates (for it is always fates) is to make the game look more populated then it already is.

P.S I would like to restate that i am not looking for "instant gratification" poor design is poor design.
