    Hopefully with little updates here n there to stave off the boredom (kinda getting depressed looking at all PL players do to keep boredom away...)

    My opinion is that the quests are too easy. In PL we had the 1000 ichor quest that took players over a month to complete. We need something time consuming like that in AL. They should add a quest that's really hard and time consuming to keep folks busy, and then give a really good reward to those who complete it.

    The only problem with the ichor quest in PL was that the elite weapon that was rewarded could not be traded. If it could it would probably be worth millions. They should do a similar type of quest in AL but make the reward tradable. That way some players can do it as a means to earn money.

    I do hope the quest to upgrade armor and helm in the next expansion is not something that takes an hour, but something more extensive.

    As long as there are new small minor updates from time to time, I'll hold up :3

    That would be quite a nice idea, 1000 shadows or so to collect!

    Well, I'm overwhelmed by the numbers of achievs I still have to acquire this expansion. So I dont mind it going a little longer. But six month is a bit too long, to be honest.

    Adding a few more levels wouldn't even keep me from capping on 1st day. That would be a pointless and non necessary upgrade.

    Guys, would be an average time about how long a new expansion needs to be developed a good add-on?

    How about a median and an average time? An average time alone would be misleading because the time between each expansion increases.

    Well combined, thank you, I will add the median to the average then as well.

    Added an Average and Median Time, thanks to Apollo for the Suggestion!

    The Average Time an Expansion needs to be developed is 66.6 days (2 Months and 1 Week).

    The Median is 57 Days (1 Month, 3 Weeks, 6 days.
