I don’t understand something here. Mausoleum was supposed to be the main gold loot map. Nowhere was it mentioned that elite southern gates is secretly a part of mausoleum and that people could go there even at 71 expasion to make gold.
It takes more effort to run single boss map, infested swamp, takes more effort to kill orrick than it takes to run elite southern gates and killing heston & preston. Now I understand that one is an old map and the other level 71 raids, so of course 71 raids are supposed to be harder. Why is that old map a substitute for mausoleum when it comes to farming gold then?
If another map can be a replacement for maus to make some fast gold,why not swamp and deep marsh too? Atleast for those maps you have to be higher level and better geared compared to ESG. So more effort, more gold/plat spent should be better rewards too.
I know new, lower levelled players have to make gold. Not saying make it harder for them. But we know that people like the OP go to ESG with their 600% + gold loot sets to make big sums of gold there too. I know this because he and others like him are on my friends list. Merchants aren’t into farming that much anyway.
So what has changed? Same people, same gold loot buffs, same gold...just a years old map that takes hardly any effort to run, especially by those who are 71.
Shouldn’t we be farming festerfang maps at 71? What is the point of expansion or levelling up or getting new gear then? Why should we be forced to stay in maus or ESG for gold farming? Shouldn’t we be allowed to have a choice to run the maps we prefer? Many of us would rather run swamp or deep marsh than ESG, for gold.
It seems a lot like making changes to arena and km3 because they were old, easy maps, yet people still have to go to boring, old, easy hauntlet to get pve kills and run kt4 to farm essence during events.
