Suggestions to soften the blow after rollback

[Everdin]

Maybe we could just make one thread on this topic, or three, one for suggestion, one for crying and one for serious bugs?

monday night EU 25th - tuesday 3rd

ive known people lost gunbad diamonds, purple seeds, lots of money, and lots of crests and lots of pve wards

Their backup is just weird. Only thing that seems to be missing is lv16 mount and money on my squig herder. But that guy didnt lose any levels as far as i can remember. All the quickbars are more or less messed up on all characters (skills missing, wrong place, etc)

Yeah... Looks like their backup was not only weird, but just messed up..

Wife lost few of her characters. I didnt.

For example her white lion is gone and my archmage is still there. Both characters were created on same day. My AM has all his levels intact too.

Heres a few ideas on how to mitigate the PVE loss and improve upon the gearing aspects of PVE. The leading principle behind my thoughts is: "there ought to be many paths to BiS"

- pve crests drop in pq bags from Gunbad PQ's in addition to set pieces like rvr bags contain crests(need to re-implement the PQs here to do this).

- pve crest amount drop from chap 22 pq bags (remove tali box in bag and make it purchasable from tokens instead).

- epic seeds purchasable by absurd amount of pve crests for example 10k like the ranked ring.

- all pve sets are purchasable from these currencies!

Spoiler:

-Rework Gunbad into a r16-r40 6-24 man raid dungeon (instanced bosses can be still be 6 man r40 content) and add renown to the faction-contested PQ's and war-crests as an optional loot from their bags.

In my experience it is fun to level your alts in different ways and this would perhaps open up other viable paths of experiencing the game in addition to make compensation for loss in PVE progress more straightforward
