My opinions on Artifact farming

[Energizeric]

I don't see a problem with the current system. Finally there is actually something worth farming for with a twink.

Yes, it's true the prices for the victus rune is more than manga, but that is a temporary thing until more twinks start farming these.

I'll say this once again, but there is no need to farm every item you want. Just like in real life, when you want a steak I doubt many of you decide to start raising cattle. You probably leave that to someone else to do and just buy your steak. We all work jobs doing specific things, and then we use our earned money to buy the other items we need in life. That is how an economy functions, and AL should be no different. Find something you like to farm, then spend your time on that, sell your loot, and then buy the items you need.

I don't know about your twink friends, but my twink friends made twinks to play PvP "all the time" and own that bracket. I doubt a lot of twinks will farm it. Twinks will use lower tier artifacts as well, hence, if they get the best tier artifact for their level bracket, even less twinks will farm it. The huge imbalance between the magna and victus supply is the problem.

Using your steak reference, sure if you want steak, you would probably buy instead of raising cattle on their own. But you could also raise it if you want. However, on runes, and endgame toon is denied that choice. You cannot farm it on that endgame toon. You would have to make another lower level toon, gear it up and farm. No offense, but it's like telling people go make younger versions of yourself to raise cattle, if you get what I mean.

Also, considering the amount of both runes needed to craft per artifact tier, I doubt that the prices on both runes will be close to equal anytime soon. What is asked is for everything to be available to all. That way there would be a better balance of supply on both runes. If not, at least decrease the amount of victus runes needed for crafting the artifact. We are not saying we will farm everything we need by ourselves, we are just asking to have the option to farm it.

You can still farm for it as a twink, it would just be nice for all levels to be able to farm the ingredients after all the big hoopla everyone made out of being able to farm game-changing items that are used to gear a very competitive character. Now, farming has done a complete U-turn and we're back to not being able to farm the ingredients we need for the toon we play.

The problem is twofold as I see it, number one I don't want to spend my time split last I checked guild rankings go (partially) by how long you are playing, therefore my guild suffers because I have to farm at lower levels. That's beside the point that it isn't effective, it's a gold sink in most cases, The mobs are tougher than the boss, and in some cases the correct runes do not drop to the levels that we've been told they should. To people saying just farm the gold and buy it - that goes to show you that this is not set up correctly if I have to bypass what they intended which was for me to farm on lower levels

I've been farming with my level 10 sorcerer, and I've gotten victus every single time (I think I now have about 15 of them). Also, the dungeon is super easy for me. I will admit that my level 10 sorcerer is very well equipped, but running that dungeon solo is easier (and faster) for me with my level 10 sorcerer than at endgame with a full party.
