I'm a "mostly solo" player too, and I feel your pain. I've been with Bungle since almost day 1. They DO consider what they're doing. Unfortunately it's more like "We created this really cool weapon, but nobody uses it. Let's nerf everything else and GOD it so everyone will use it" instead of accepting they invented a dog. They try to increase the relevance of screwed up creation by decreasing the relevance of everything else. Unfortunately, they also dick things up to where they can't create a patch. Not too long ago they had to do a "revert to pre-patch" to unfubar their programming mistakes. TWICE. I'm not a programmer, so I tip my hat to them, BUT what I'm paid to do, I'm expected to do well. Yes, it sucks, but in the big scheme of things, it's pretty minor. What gets me is when I get to a pinnacle level, the "random" order of progression seems to be 5 primary, 1 energy, 1 heavy, 2 head gear and 2 gauntlets. Takes forever to get to the top level equipment all around, as I believe it's designed to be.

Not to mention the lose of 21 enhancement core per week. Up to a loss of 42 so far. And still another seven weeks. So 189 cores lost and nine pinnacles lost overall !!!

Glad someone else noticed that. Looked on the web for an answer. Since I do just the basic casual grind this is a significant absence. Prolly no need to be in most 'in it for the perks' zero activity clans until this is fixed.
