This is ...

Rage of the elements during Night of the Great Dragons, an event that relies on PVE combat and thus includes elemental mobs...great idea. Now I am screwed and can't do the event well. When you fail to think things through you screw over most of the players.
So what, it still screws lots of people up, you might be good but Rage of the elements is screwy to begin with, nerfing the annual haloween event is just stuuuupid
not everyone is level 50. I've found that the higher level players are, the fewer complaints. people lvls 9-35, as far as I've seen, are absolutely fed up with this event. It is actually impossible for me to complete this event, I can get past maybe the first three portals, but only at the cost of perhaps ten gold, and many, many extra hours I don't have. For most people, this is a ridiculous event that should be optional, available at much higher levels, or even perhaps have fewer faults. Separate it at least a little bit from normal functions, and I'll shut up.
even doing that, it's impossible for me. Plus, I would lose even more money.
Even with money its probubly not possible most of the lower levels to clear the event.
Take me for example, I make my money selling consumables, and with a stable system I can make 7g - 10g, in a 24 hr period.
During the event all my money and reels at the time went into the event for armor breakage and potions and I made it to Rage of Element II.
However after 1 day of the event I found that I couldn't sell potions or elixirs because all the players were buying "Big potions".
After 2 days I was finally able to sell some potions (The Higher levels had finally cleared the event and were buying potions again)
However a different problem arose. People stopped selling jaw bones on auction. (and when someone finally put them on they priced then for more than the potions that is made from them could be sold for.)
I take this to mean that all the lower level players have stopped hunting because of the 1-2 monster added to every battle.
I started Rage of Elements at lv 21 but unfortunately rose to lv to 22. Now Im in the lowest battleing bracket so I will probubly break alot of armor If I battle in the arena again. I can do battling portals but that takes at least simple elixors, 2 lessor potions, and 3 lessor glyphs per battle. As well as skellies for safty. (Needless to say without the ability to make money from selling potions and consumables I definately wont be able to finish this event.)
Btw: This also means that anyone who did not have money at the time because they bought armor, or used it in other ways cant do the event at all because there is no way to make money (The potion cost of battling is now higher than the money gained) The only exceptions to this are pple with blue level armor (and if they break it they probubly are out as well.)
So around 5-7 quintars per fight is not quick way to get quests done and it costs too much. would not minde the costs, but it kills all the fun getting so small rewards and lasting to long
Perhaps providing some more obvious notice so players can stock up for event as difficult to complete quest if starting low on gold and hunting, hop and eyes aren't efficient during event. Maybe a one week notice in news?
