First, it does have significance becaus eit seems that is what it is all boiling down to. The old players seem to be mad because I "have the nerve" to complain about wanting 4th job after not playing as long. HOW DARE I WANT TO ENJOY A GAME TO ITS FULLEST AFTER NOT SPENDING A YEAR IN IT!!
Also, I found all of that more interesting than AP grinding, because at least I was getting money along the way. <--Just my opinion.
You know, getting free legendary +20 gear without putting in the effort to make it would help me enjoy the game more. I know that normally it involves getting lots of powders, souls, and insurance, but I've put a lot of effort into other aspects of this game besides farming those mats and farming gold for cash items. I really think that I should be be given the gear I want because it would make the game so much more enjoyable. After all, I've leveled 8 characters, and farmed over 100k AP. But no how dare I enjoy the game to it's fullest without meeting the requirements to get what I want. Honestly, I won't pvp in that gear, so it shouldn't affect anyone.
Also, I found medal farming more interesting than farming mats and gold, because I was getting achievement points along the way. <---Just my opinion.
lol?
