Wintergrasp buff and the repercussions of lack thereof

#1 » Post by Gadoschi » 24 Dec 2017 22:21

I am opening this suggestion thread on encouragement from one of the devs.

It concerns Wintergrasp buff and its future status.

Now, I notified our beloved dev that, should the plan for Wintergrasp status to be reverted to how it was before Wintergrasp was open on next restart (meaning, without Wintergrasp buff indefinitely) go forward, it will - at least in the Stone Keeper's Shards farming segment - be a continuation of the nowadays' trend of not having any opportunity to farm Stone Keeper's Shards, as they require Wintergrasp buff to be farmed from dungeon bosses, and not really a reversion to what Wintergrasp status really was before it was open at all.

I clearly remember everyone having Wintergrasp buff in order to be able to farm shards, but I can't remember if we also had any other buff from it (I think we didn't, but not sure, but it would make sense for this to have been the case).

Now, the dev in question informed me that he/she does not know how to implement it.

My suggestion is - however you implement Wintergrasp in the near future, give us back the option to farm Stone Keeper's Shards as well. Otherwise those vendors will be largely completely useless for a number of players. So, please keep that in mind.

I mean, since you are already giving back large Elementals for everyone and vendors for everyone.

Players didn't have the WG buff, the condition that required the WG buff from looting the shards was removed back then. I support removing it again in order to address this for now.

Since we brought back the vendors and elementals to use,
I don't see why not.

Live on next restart.
