I think that's part of the problem, though. Do it once, and the expectation is that it's given every year.
Honestly that wouldn't be so bad though. If people expected them at Christmas it could help to quash the constant requests throughout the year. Probably not, but maybe lol
Problem is, it didn't. When MD was changed, people were SCREAMING that they deserved them. When older characters were buffed, they BEGGED for them. When AW had a Bleed-immune global node, people INSISTED that they deserved them.
Sure. But if they give them this year it will become more of a thing. Like I said it may not make a difference but I can see how it could. Also rank downs for MD are perfectly reasonable. The requests for older character buffs and the AW global node were absurd though.
The people saying no make no sense. Let it expire if you don't want to use it. If this was just about punishing poor decision making that is one thing...but this year there is a legitimate basis in fairness to give them out.
For a silver alliance you just haven't rank or probably have excess ranking materials still for all your checks
A man gotta eat daily... only asking for 1 a year
No, people have been asking for one a day for about 2 years.
Yes I do agree with that part.... unfortunately.
Yeah, they ranked up Dormmamu and then MD was nerfed. :-/
I get that you don't get this because you mistakenly believe that masteries are not a part of champion design despite specific examples to the contrary, but champs were ranked solely for defense and used to get kills. They no longer get kills. The Champ is no longer useful for the only reason they were ranked. It's fine if you don't agree but to say that it isn't a legitimate request is frankly absurd.
Sorry, but I disagree. Getting those Kills isn't an intrinsical part of their design. They got them because the Mastery was OP.
There would be 95% less R4 and up Dormamus in the game if it wasn't for that mastery so nerfing it did ruin the character. I get that you want to argue against RDT but the reality is they are warranted. The character was changed after he was ranked with that mastery in mind. A mastery they said was working as intended and would not be changed. Thus many players were for lack of a better term screwed.
Kabam has stated that some champs are designed defensively so yes, it is. And yes @CoatHang3r we did. Did you have a point? Lol
No, he wasn't changed. The Mastery was. Which they compensated for. I keep mentioning that, but it's not getting through.
Yeah you're right. It won't go anywhere. Moving on.
So if they were in fact compensated, they would've recieved the pay back and then Mystic Class RDTs (as that's what most are using for justification here) as recompense for the loss in their usefulness. No one can deny that Mystic champs took a hit defensively speaking when they changed Dex and MD. Something, like many have said, was said to be working 'as per design' for a LONG time. So now players have certain champs collecting dust in their roster as a result. Don't try and spin it any other way.
At the end of the day, if there were a scheduled dispersal of a VERY LIMITED number of these things yearly, and it was made clear that was it. Once a year. These threads would be less and less. I do agree, too many people ask for them ALL TOO OFTEN. Fact. However, that doesn't change the fact there's a reason for such. If people were met in the middle, I think it would help everyone in the end. Then it could be said, wait til the end of the year and you'll get your chance to change something. In the mean time, stop asking.
Now, on a final note, they aren't gonna be game changers. So perhaps, and this is coming from someone who could take or leave them, be patient. We've seen old champs suddenly become useful in Uncollected EQs over theast few months. Wouldn't it be a shame if you used a RDT on such a champ that was suddenly KEY to easily putting a boss on ice? Then you'd have to chase down those resources again, lol. With a limited time frame taboot!!! As I see it, let em have a couple, and let them deal with the outcomes. Be they good or bad, that's remained to be seen. As long as it was a choice given, they'd have no one to blame but themselves. I get the MD arguement. I do. However, other than that, nothing else was changed so much in 2018 that would warrant these RDTs. These are my last words on this matter. Carry on everyone.
The basis for ranking him was changed. It is disingenuous to think otherwise but it is your choice if you want to.
