The biggest single source for Mystic Coins is the daily login reward, not fractals, wvw, pvp or new strike. Some have from a few to several hundred accounts, which gives them 20 months to do nothing on each account. These people should be called RICH, not people who spend their time learning and perfecting how to tackle the cm-fractals.
There should always be a better reward for doing difficult things, and the mc was a good incentive for cm-fractal novices. More than once, I helped and taught people, even if they said it was too difficult for them. Nevertheless, the desire to create a legend was stronger. Now they are so good that they show me new tactics themselves and teach other players. However, the unstable chance of dropping MCs is exactly what defines cm-fractals, that nothing is certain like a boss mechanic, and whether the fight will be a success or a failure. And since people say that only a few % of players do cm-fractals, the amount of mc from there cannot affect the economy. Therefore, I believe that removing mc is fractal castration. Now I don't even have any illusions that a new cm fractal will come out.
I was hoping they would encourage me and my friends to buy EoD, but they let us down.
They could throw mc out of their daily login rewards. This would give them plenty of opportunities to place them in most of the game world, such as the wvw, raids, strikes, fractals, dungeons, and anywhere they want. That way, they would reward those who do what they like and now don't get it. It would also motivate people to participate in the wider game world and destroy the monopoly on mc. But arenenet's selling accounts to people who only use them for daily logging in must pay off.
