Daaang, Khis, I'm not that old yet. Geeze. Anyway, I already converted the armor back to zerk. But like I said, I've been running full zerk for eight years, and check my gear and stats often. This is just psychologically messin with me i tells ya!

I did. I don't have anything but garbage on my other set=3

So, weird thing. Yesterday I was checking out the new rifle change on my little warrior and noticed that my power was pretty low and I was like wtf? I looked at my build and then my gear and saw that my zerk armor stats (Zojia) was changed to marauder (svaard). I am 100% sure that I crafted Zojia's armor on my warrior as I carefully made her a full zerk murder machine. Nothing else was affected, just the armor. Anyone else experience this change? I contacted support and they were unable to verify that any changes were made. I also reported this as a bug. Maybe I am going senile in my old age and accidentally herped and derped svaard's armor for no reason, but this is highly unlikely. BTW support wanted the EXACT date and time that I acquired and/or crafted each armor piece. My account is over eight years old so I really don't remember. Guys, am I crazy???

I had made a thread previously complaining about the daunting meta in "Visions of the Past," of which I am still stuck at 22/27 and I have no plans to grind it out any further. The meta in "No Quarter" though is entirely do-able in a number of days for an old veteran player like me. I'm not sure if you guys at ANET listened or not, but thanks for that. I feel like I enjoyed the new content a lot more with goals within reach. Plays Dead

I feel the opposite. I enjoyed the variety in Grothmar and I feel that repeating strikes daily is an intensely boring grind. I also have zero interest in the runic armor set and it is too expensive to casually try and unlock. I like the collections though. Why are people opposed to a decrease in the mastery requirements? You can still complete all 36 even with the mastery decreased. I've done daily strikes, but repeating them over and over again for the harder achievements is something that is not appealing to me as a casual player. I don't know why this game has chosen to go this way while other past living stories had more variety and less grind with the mastery. Because all you get is AP and a title. Shouldn’t those that complete more achievements be rewarded? Unlike previous seasons, the new shiny armor/backpack skin is unlocked earlier. Ok. Maybe keep the 36 achievos for the title, but offer more choices and variety. My main gripe is that we have to complete every last one of the 35/36 achievements for the title. More options are always fun. In "War Eternal" for instance, i'm still stuck at 16/18 because I never bothered to keep grinding that one quest with collecting soul binders.

I think you are right.

I think that the new crystal currency is the better reason for me to do strikes personally. This mastery requiring strikes turn me off completely, but that is just me.

Let me just start by saying that the new LS is great. I just feel like I won't be completing the meta mastery due to it requiring all 36 achievements. Now, I would really like to complete it, but it would be more doable with more variety or less achievements (maybe 21/36 or so). The enormous number and specificity of required achievements is also why I never bothered to complete other meta achievements from previous Living Worlds. Now before everyone jumps on me with "hurr hurrr you don't have to play," let me just say that I'm a dedicated veteran player who is getting too old to farm this many achievements. I would just like to feel like I can complete this meta with the limited play time I have. How do you guys feel?
