I used to play my XXX like that every week. I know exactly what it means. I have stockpiles of gems, skins and foragables from my Rift days. Doing it 1 week out of 12 to guarantee a similar amount of XP every week until the next contest is not a big deal if you have the time to do it, which obviously she does.Quote:

I assume you have max logic enhancives too? It takes more than time, it also takes a lot of effort and micromanagement to truly maximize. Staying saturated and pulsing on a supernode every minute for 6 hours isn't easy at all and requires a fuckton of silver (and probably Simucoins for bounty waivers, so real money is probably being invested to some degree too) and should be rewarded in a system like this Lumnis contest.Quote:

Would you be cool with your salary, which you worked hard to achieve it being whatever it is, being averaged with a bunch of minimum wage scrubs? I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that the answer is no.
Who would have guessed XP was such serious business :|Quote:

The contest has been done once. They said they were not giving rewards to the top 25 at this time but I saw nothing that indicated that couldn't change in the future, after a few more contests. It's an experiment.
BTW I also did a +1 to getting rid of the contest and doing a set xp gain.
We'll find out in March. My money is on the average taking a giant shit.Quote:

I'm thinking it'll likely just shart a little.Quote:
