I fairly certain it's just an artificial way to keep people from gearing up too fast early on, at least that tends to be what they claim. Is it annoying and sometimes unfair? For sure. But in the grand scheme of things it's there to keep people playing and make sure we don't max out in a couple of weeks. Although, for me personally, I rarely do NMs beyond the first couple of weeks so I can't say their strategy is actually effective. But I also can't say for sure if the system was different that my opinion of running NMs would change. :shrug:
