That's why they changed them? How lame. Fix that asap, but other crap stays broken forever.
Well, they said they weren't intended to be BtA, but I tend to not really believe that. It sounds like a convenient excuse.
It is pretty BS though... glad I bought my huge bag the day before they changed it!
Of course, that's nothing compared to why they changed the way Reavers Refuge crafting works. For a while there, you could go turn in your Draconic Runes to get a reward screen selection of Eldrich/Tempest/Soverign runes. Then you could walk over to the altar, with the screen open, and drag the runes from the reward screen into the altar with your armor.
Net result: 10-12 attempts instead of 1.
Now THAT was a sweet exploit. Funny enough, it made Reavers Refuge crafting a
hell of a lot better. Sapped the grind right out of it. Oh, sure, Turbine probably hated that, as they wanted the DT crafting to keep us busy grinding... fuck them. Sorry management, but grinding != content, you tightwad fucks. I wish you'd remember that grinding is not what makes MMOs fun.
