I agree. Us non mega plat users are getting the better half of this event. Made a few bucks this past few days all thanks to Elo locks.

Can't say the same with them LB players.

i loved tarlok more... tarlok still best event

Back at Tarlok, its impossible for you to earn anything if you dont have plats. This time at Ursoth, I've earned a lot of gold without spending any plat.

-_- i made alot of gold from tarlok by farming on my lvl 10 twink, didn't spent a single plat.

Cons:
- Bug that allowed to enter the map without energy, as described by the players on the forum
- Very small map
- No possibility of playing with friends, guild( :0 !)
- Helena disruptive takes time and causes the escape of players
Pros:
- Award for tier
- an interesting atmosphere and music, but too similar to the game Crusade of Destiny(Elves City).
-Easy to get the essence
-Ease in getting gold
-Nice vanity.
Is this the best event? Not. For me it's just another step toward the development of a better event.

Must be portal exploit, its the only way tarlok items were able to increase in numbers otherwise we will be seeing much less tarlok items.

What if your goal isn't to make money? It'd be like them releasing a new expansion and you saying "I hate running the maps so I don't, all I do is sit in town and merch on the new items and make money. Therefore, I deem the expansion a success."

I think it says a lot about the event if the worse part is running the maps. I don't play AL to get rich or own stuff, I play it because I enjoy the play style and running maps. That is the core of the game.

For that reason, you may see me in the Happy Trails section soon. I agree with everything you've said about the features of the event, but I personally feel like it's a chore to use up my energy. The running isn't captivating/rewarding, so that turns me off hugely.

I think part of this problem is the locked crates. Someone doesn't need to spend a second of time running in the event, yet can have the new mythic weapons and the best gear. I've opened 9 spirit/entangled chests, and all I've gotten is energy or gold. I opened two locked crates (Elondria), and got all gold, then one living spirit assault armour. In TWO crates. Watching videos of people open crates also reveals the rate at which the new gear is dropping. Personally, I think this is kind of ruining the value of running the event maps. Everything can be attained from the locked crates, and all the opening of them is saturating the market with the best event gear. Get to gold tier for Dovabear, pay 30k for the best gear (sorc), and I don't know what else you can do if running is a chore.

I agree that the event map could have been a bit more entertaining. I think the real issue is the OP bosses. Helena is always a chore and Ursoth is pretty tough himself. This is an area of the event system that should be improved, I can't argue there. I play the game because I enjoy running maps. I am solely pve and I definitely hear what you are saying. That being said the event has done a great job revitalizing the game as a whole. I don't think anyone can argue there. It is a success for that reason.
