I love the hell pup minions from pvp and had them following me around quite often before as being my favourites, some old mounts are awesome too. In the end I still adore my wolf mount from arr and often have hawk minion out cause I started as summoner and Hawkers Alley was once my parking spot. These things mean someting nice to me, there are good memories attached to getting those items. So here you are considering grinding content that will likely leave you with bad memories which will remain attached to the rewards you get. Is it worth it? I'd say not but that's a perspective of a casual player. The new rewards from cc are the definition of not all that shines is gold...or crystal. Ranked cc is toxic, even casual is! Right now I just can't deal with being mocked and humiliated by people who are as often in my team as in the enemy one. You were talking about morale and yes it hurts when it gets destroyed but again in my experience it's teammates that kill it not defeats themselves. You have no idea of the level of intimidation you can get just cause people don't like your job, your name or think you are beneath them on skill level! You would think that it's in team's interest to support you rather than put you down but nah, they will put a marker on you to make sure you know how much they don't want you there. Even though I get some random commendations I feel unwelcome at the beginning of every match. That's my heartfelt reality. I'm done with this ranked bs! I mean ranked cc...
