AQ opening is a unique event, why should they give it to us for free and ruin it? pay patience, and supplies!

Yes the opening event is unique, but not the war efforts. They made the war efforts ridiculously high not so that we can feel accomplished when it is over but so they have more time to script. It is obvious. Even though there are (or were) posts out there where Sheena and others expressed desire for the war effort to be finished in 3-4 weeks. Even the first thread about the War Efforts stated that they aimed for it to be over with in 3-4 weeks.

my guess kill off athem really seem slike thats whats at hand.Iv called it every time that they would put off this up date and if they ever did lower numbers its would be a joke.Just to by time because aq is no where near ready if at all it will ever come out because clearly they lost what good coding staff they had a wile back

Am i the only one who finds it good that war effort got nerfed? 

Low lvl mats requirement went down drastically (4 times down for some), at this point it is totally doable to finish the war effort. Yes it will take some time and dedication, but didn't you guys wanted to experience Vanilla ? War Effort is a part of it, and i will burden myself for a few weeks, going out to farm mats because it's everyone's job to contribute for the server's opening of AQ.

Everyone can contribute, so please do ! We have Vanilla and the opportunity to not slack in Capital City or Raid Log. Take that opportunity ! 

My two cents, i have my own view on this game i gues^^

Everyone just farm. We're at 60% try to get it done. Autocomplete should be on so we get close that'll help. Just give it a shot.

when aq opens, it will be cleared by many guilds within 1 week and then you will return to the forums and ask for when naxx is being released

No because it takes time to get all the gear that you want.

Well at this point it is getting more and more clear that they do not care about anathema at all. Looking at how poorly they manage the whole war effort. Keeping pretty much 0 promises about timelines and changes and giving almost 0 info to the community on any platforms. Now even randomly implementing the badget quests without any info to the community beforehand.. This is going to be same as it was with K1 and K2 with anathema being the bad stepbrother that gets no love. Anathema is nothing more than the PTR for elysium anymore.

Actually after thinking about it a bit, I strangely have a weird feeling of agreeing to this.

Yes, like someone posted earlier, these numbers shoulda been there at 5th day allready. Don't know the state of AQ atm, don't know were the numbers mega-high 'cause there really WAS stockpileing mats etc etc, but atm the numbers *seem* doable. Yeah, Firebloom seems kinda high for some ppl, but since it's on the ugly & filthy animal side, I don't mind. 0=)

 

Off to farming...

So what Majority of you are saying is that there are a large % of the server that dont give a fuck about completing the war effort because they can make gold, and the minority that are trying to complete the warr effort are to few to provide the numbers required , sounds like its the player base that is the problem not the numbers.

Mabe reflect back a little and motivate players that have materials stock piled tohand in there stuff instead of holding onto them , player base of Anathema is what 2-4k people ?

95000 firebloom - between 2-4k people doesn't sound to hectic might take you a little while to complete it but isn't that what vanilla is about the grind.

150 000 Stranglekelp - between 2-4k people , granted there arn't that many spawns.

How about one of you that are really scathed by this WE , Try and code it better - Open sourced for a reason why not give it a go if you think this is "so fucking terrible" try to make it better - "to the reply" - this is not our job - its not theirs either they are donating their free time to create something for us which lets be honest none of you would bother to do.

Show some decorum guys and girls , everyone fucks up here and there you cant say that you NEVER fuck up.

keep doing what you are doing Elysium the old saying "time heals all wounds" applies to this WE and any past mistakes.

Grow as a team and keep providing a service that is very much appreciated among majority of the vanilla community.

Yeah, this numbers should be good enough IF YOU did em 1 month ago. But not now... Now is too late for such numbers. War Effort wouldn't ever be completed here at  ̶V̶a̶l̶k̶y̶r̶i̶e̶ Anathema until there will be any kind of hidden auto-completion every day(.add item Firebloom 10000 and turn in by GM).

Please tell me there is a autocomplete. The war effort will go way beyond the planned 4 weeks if this isn't the case.

Don't kill our server.

Yes they stated there was an auto complete system, so I'm guessing slowly day by day resources get added

yup. And tbh, for my low lvl alt this situation isn't that bad; Grinding XP while farming leather == Getting the XP, and free greenies from AQ chests.

There's QQ because this messed up war effort has/ had a huge impact on the server and the population it carries.

The WE numbers we started off with were pulled out of someone's ass, and it doesn't surprise me that people are starting to think there's reasoning behind it, as in delaying AQ or whatever.

The war effort numbers should have been the same like retail, there's no proper reason to make something as dull as the war effort more "challenging", of course that is easily said in hindsight.

Would just like to remind you this is just 1 of the many issues the server's still facing. Bugs are being fixed VERY slowly. I don't know what server you play or how everything is going on Elysium, but just to give you an example for Anathema, the root/ fear disconnect bug was in-game for a ridiculously long time and was exploited by many. This should have been prioritized, but it wasn't.

Feels to me that the team is struggling with prioritizing the right things.

I don't mean to shitpost, I'm thankfull for everything the team is doing and is giving to us, but these things worry me.

I can't speak for all stockpiles but firebloom it's simple. A lot of smart mages bought a shit ton (1000+) of firebloom when it was dirt cheap. They are sitting on these stockpiles not to make gold, but because they never ever want to farm firebloom ever again for firepower for the rest of the server through naxx.

This isn't on us. It's not our fault most of us do not want to farm for hours on end for very little gain. Granted, I have turned in quite a bit of materials myself.

I spend about 5-6 hours a week farming for consumables, it's boring and I hate it for the most part, it's only bearable because i can see that my hard work pays off somehow. I just can't be bothered to spend the same amount of time fishing rainbow fin albacore to fulfill some intangible goal, and I'm pretty sure a lot of people feel the same way.

it's pretty simple. Materials are rediculously high, because they dont have enough developers to proper script AQ40, and they need to buy as much time as possible, without exposing they are ages behind
