Lets say you're in a PvE progression guild and spend months attempting to down a particularly tough boss that very few people have killed. And lets say that boss drops a really cool mount that everyone wants. So after months and months of attempts you kill the boss but instead of being rewarded for it, the mount is sent to some random player that isn't even in your raid. You start to notice more and more people with this rare mount that you committed a lot of time to achieving but instead others are being handed this mount for doing nothing while you go without. Now the mount is common and does not represent any sort of achievement any more so you and your guild lose motivation to continue playing.... Do you not see the problem with this?



The fact is in any competitive venue there is some tangible reward to strive for, whether it's gold medal at the Olympics or the Vince Lombardi Trophy for winning a Superbowl. If the person or team earns these rewards and instead of receiving them they are given to someone else do think it's /crymore /umadbro? I do realize this is a video game and not anything nearing that extreme, I also am not losing my mind IRL because there are many other great things in life other than this game. That said, I enjoy this game and have some personal investment in it so I believe my comments and posts are justified.



The bottom line is that there is a clearly constructed rewards system set out by the devs each arena season and it is reasonable as a paying customer to have an expectation these rewards are granted correctly. The only expectation is that you earn YOUR personal reward. To still be frustrated after YOU got your nexu just because someone else got it that didn't go through the same **** you did means you care about what others think about you way too much.
