Its pretty messed up though how it was never mentioned as a continuation in the original thread. And now they just drop the information like this.
Dang, so now I will have to finish this on my rogue and mage... I looted 21 insignias whilst doing dailies on both of them during the last month. I guess I will be done in 9 months
How long does the actual crafting take per item?
If the orcslayer takes weeks to obtain and is a required quest, could the orcslayer gear not be made at least comparable if not slightly better than the crate gear?
People want a viable reward for something that takes a huge amount of work, and from my understanding this armour is not even wearable. Yes, you could say that since its completion is necessary to start the mythic quest, access to the mythic quest is reward enough, but most people won't feel that way. I am guessing the Ursoth gear is supposed to be the step between crate and mythic, but it feels discouraging to farm weeks for a set of gear that has substandard stats.
The gear quality should be Elite Mythic > Orcslayer > Ursoth > Crate. The amount of work involved should determine the quality of the gear.
Don't like how it was never disclosed that we needed the orc slayer set. Sts come on we asked this 10x on threads and in the box. When you drop this info late it is frustrating to the community.
And yes as Ser said the stats are horrid, it's a grind it should reflect the work we put in to make it.
They could also make insignia drop from elite bosses worldwide. That would make the grind a lot less painful. I don't relish running these 3 maps 500 times to complete this quest, nor does anyone else I know.
Information this important should not be withheld until the last second. Things would've been way smoother if it was stated that you need the junk set to get the good one in the original thread.
It's just annoying at this point and it has disrupted the insignias' price for no good reason.
Wow for once I was right!
The orc slayer setd needs to be better than crate gear. As much as this would disappoint crate poppers, it also means that average players will eventually be able to have what should supposedly be the 2nd best set at 46 cap (mythic being best).
I really hope the goal of elites is to complete crafting the mythic set and not drop elite pinks that will only be equal to event/crate pinks as in previous iterations.
Also please do not be surprised anymore by your player bases ability to drop loads of time and money in to your game.
I really hope the stats for the orc slayer set get readjusted to reflect their importance in the game and not just be a stop gap make work quest to get the more desired glintstone set. I should be proud to be able to wear either set instead of settling for some cheap crate gear that cost a 1/3rd the price of something that would take weeks to farm

10 runs and my party members got 2-3 insignias each. I got 0. If they are going to have long quests like this, it really should not be totally "luck of the drop" based. You should be able to auto-get an insignia for every 5 or 10 bosses killed, in addition to luck-based drops. Otherwise people who don't have good luck with the drop system get screwed.
I don't have a huge problem with it. It's another thing to farm. Players who don't plan on getting the myth set right away get to make some gold.
The problem I have is the lack of communication. There are many players who were using their orc tags on orcish chests. Since Orc tags are tied to daily quests, these players are screwed. That's why I don't like daily quests being tied to the myth set. You can't just farm everything at your own pace. You have to log in every day, and you get a limited amount per day, no matter how hard you want to farm.
Yup I'm weeks behind now because I don't have the tags. Gg....
