    Not exactly the same... You get better gear and new maps... The mechanics are back to the same thing...which is awesome.

    Yup.

    It's not the only place for farm anymore, either.

    Some people don't want to farm it because it's brutally long, and have a chance to not even have a chance to get a drop.

    I personally think each monster there should have a 75% chance to drop a green, to make it worth it in liquidation cash, but meh.

    The way it is now is much more balanced. I was arguing with the "I am bored" baby-ish nonsense, and I always will. Heard too much of it from my kids and grandkids, I guess. But technically, this is more balanced, and is probably what was intended. LesRider is probably right that they did not want to tip off that it was an error.

    Whoa, you have grandkids?

    That's cute<3

    I don't think it was an error, I just think they didn't see the consequences and didn't want to admit it.

    PS: I find it funny how many people are in love with the nerf, compared to how many people loved the 100% drop rate and the horrible economy.

    I think it was a coding error as well...come on, 100% drop rates for the best equips in the game, for the entire party?

    Which other MMO has done this?!?!

    WoW? FF? MS? LaTale? Runescape?

    (I played all of those btw)

    It wasn't a coding error, or they wouldn't have argued with the negative feedback. ^_^

    I played RS, and FFXI, oh and some RSPS.
    (I played Runescape when it was 2-D.)

    I think it may have been a code error. They have never had 100% drop rates before, and pinks as quest rewards only started a few months ago.

    I / We do respond differently to different players' expressions of game issues.

    Whist being flamed it's a lot more cathartic to 'deny, deny, deny!'

    (Of course - at the same time - let the constructive contributors know what fixes we have in-mind.)

    Now we know the real reason why Futumsh was being kept away from the MB.

    I will build you a castle of constructive criticism if you inform me about future updates .

    Aww and here I thought I was giving constructive criticism. Guess I was wrong.

    Constructive criticism usually does not include dramatic and vast over-generalizations like how we "ruined" the game or" sucked the fun out of it".

    That reply just ruined this thread and sucked the fun out of my posting experience.

    Lol on the title fix.

    Eh I lost track of everything I said. But I thought it at least started as constructive criticism.

    Point taken! Your patience with some of the comments in this forum is appreciated.

    As for the drop rate, you sure it didn't function as intended, flood market with new pinks for a few days to get people interested, then scale back to keep people playing (a sound business practice for sure).

    Also, Kudo's for new sets, keeps the VL pinks still viable.

    not always true. Be possitive about your negative post and give insight. Example "Dude.. JustG, your freakin new update SUCKS! Lower the drop rate." Vs. "Hey JustG, love the new update! I see a potential problem though, drop rates are too high and might crash the economy." See how the way you talk makes all the difference?

    Regarding constructive criticism: As with reviews anywhere about anything, you'll probably see more people complaining than people with positive or neutral opinions. The people who are unhappy are more likely to say something.
