I've only 100% explored the 6 months prior to December, maybe 7, but I'm in no way enjoying this month. The community I'm part of has had a lot of people exploring ways to counter the nodes we've been given...with champs other than those designed to counter the nodes. Not true for every quest, but in terms of going for exploration, a necessity. I've yet to see it if it's been given, but I think the community as a whole deserves an apology from the quest dev(s) for 3.1 of cav eq this month. Not only for implementing a node that demands reparrying when so many are having issues with simple parries, but for some of the defender choices (a path with stealthy and domino? really?) as well. I explored all four quests before 3.1 (I explore before doing an initial clear, easier to 100% a quest once I have a feel of the nodes/champs being used), and now it feels like a bit of a waste. No way I'm wasting time/resources on 3.1 exploration. Not a huge loss, but this is content I look forward to every month. Hoping this doesn't turn into a trend. I'm fine with new nodes, happy even, but not if they're going to be this tone-deaf about designing them.
Skipping this month . Amount of effort required to 100% is not worth the rewards . Just gonna auto play other difficulties and chill this month .
