I agree but this is a event they'll always bring back. Whether the next one is as op as the thok event or less or more, it's always here once a year. Maybe scale back the benefits the next time it drops so drops aren't as devalued.

"In a way you can already do that with auto flasks which stack with lant sticks. 6 dose times 8 mins = 48 mins + drink a potion at the bank before you start which just about covers your 1 hour instanced."

That's definitely convenient, but for me it is the same basic problem. I am aware the potion will be expiring, so it's a decision to commit to using another dose vs '1 more kill.'

When the timer is longer than I am going to play, 1 more kill leads to another because now I am not thinking about the decision to use another potion. Even if it is done automatically.

If I was collecting data, I would look to see if players are staying for more kills after they finish a reaper task during this event.

Haven't played in almost a year but I agree. After now looking at these recent updates, seems like the direction things are going is kind of skewed. They're focusing too much on MTX and not on other important aspects. Hope they change course or else the integrity will be lost. :/

PvM Buffs are available to all members. There is no MTX required, and Mod Ryan hinted on more such "Winter Weekend" kinds of free buff and free death weeks coming. We probably will have something similar for the new Necromancy boss next month as Mod Ryan teased on the new boss will require specific Necromancy counter tactics to negate certain attacks, unlike Raisial. So I guess I can use all kinds of free deaths and pvm buffs.
