They told us these were coming like a month ago, if you wanted them you should have been farming rems already.
Looks like there's a level 28 that's missing that should have 60 HA and 32 MRR, guess Turbine can't figure out how to make something cost more than 10k rems.
Thank you Taco.
That whooshing sound is my point going high over your head.
Allow me to clarify - where did they say that these specific items were coming a month ago? I did not see that post.
EDIT: Belay that - link provided below (thanks Madman). No costs were mentioned though.And this was not a personal whinge post. Due to some forward planning, I have sufficient remnants to acquire whatever I need for a long time. I am approaching my comment from the perspective of the general populace who likely don't have 4000-8000 remnants (because they don't play Hard or Elite).
Yes, you could indeed have been farming for a month to get this one item. Awesome isn't it.
Unless you play alot and choose to farm them, you will likely not have 1,000's of remnants.
As a benchmark, I know some regular (most nights) but casual players (play the difficulty level that suits the group available) that don't have anywhere near 1,000 remnants.
If you play HH 8 hours a day on EE, then you will be fine!
Of course, you'll be bored out of your fucking brain, but all set for that ML21 item which you will likely never use.
I believe there will be a series of items over time.
But you get this before Apr 5 or you miss out (for now). Whether they recycle them or not, I don't know. Actually, given the laziness in their development, pretty sure they will recycle them.
I don't have a soln to the broader argument around remnants. I was just observing that the cost is fairly high on the scale.
I would suggest the cost is outside "stretch target" range for most players, so they simply won't bother.
