Yellow dopant in the DDO store

I'm pretty torn between two feelings right now :
- About time !
- So, they made them extremely rare so we give up on farming right when they add them to the store ?

Never having to run shroud again is a good thing.

On one hand, I'm disgusted, on the other hand, I'm elated that I can get as many as I want to deconstruct my shit and not have to wait for the shitty thing to drop in my name.

Beyond my disappointment that some super special rare ingredient is needed in addition to the tier3 GS thats been sitting in our banks for years, I'm not at all surprised they put the dopant in the store. 
About damn time really. 
I don't want to farm shroud to deconstruct the same shit I farmed shroud for in the first place.

I just looked and could not find this.  Is it already live, or coming soon?

I'm really reaching the point of telling Turbine to LIAF.

I don't really need to deconstruct anything. It seemed that running for that fucking dopant provided more ingredients than you would have gotten back from deconstructing anyway.

Not that I've run many shrouds since the update (maybe 3). All my GS is already built.

In my opinion it would have been less slimey to have just released yellow dopant in the store and not pretend to make it drop in game.  Just a flat out "You guys want this, it's going to be a store only item" would have been fine.  I could get behind that even.

The "Oh, you guys are having a hard time farming for it, maybe we'll put it in the store for you then" while knowing the drop rate is about .00001% is just a asshat move.

So it's safe to say then that they botched the drop percentage code, perhaps intentionally.  Too many hard/elite shrouds to count now and haven't seen anyone pull one...

Now the ddo store comes 'to the rescue' Undecided

All I can say is wow...

Heh, I wonder if the drop rates for it are the same as any other store loot but it only drops from the shroud.  Wouldn't that be nice?

Ah, so they are using update 15 to buff druids, no doubt.  Makes sense.

I can't say that this is the straw that broke the camel's back in getting me to stop giving Turbine my money, but it is another reason to make me not want to change my mind.

I sometimes think that they could convince me that they're changing their ways and that I could give them money again someday, but they go out of their way to remind me of why I made that decision in the first place.

eh, I think Yellow Dopant is exactly what should be in the DDO Store. It's pure convenience. Grind out the larges or decon your old GS. Either way you're not getting any stronger then you already were. I mean you have to had already completed a GS item or slotted a ToD ring to even use the Dopant.

It's not like buying a +3 supreme tome or better then chest found mana pots.

I find it a bit stupid it wasn't released in the store with the xpac, but I'm having a hard time seeing the reasoning for any anger of it being added to the store in u15.
