Eh, not really true. This has always been the way for limited events, like GI, and still is. But when it comes to permanent events, like Aphra or a GL, this has never been the case because it doesn't really matter.

Eh, totally true. The exact event this first happened is gl rey. These days even the expectation of farmability before the event is not existent. Can you recall any single event before Rey that didn't have a farm window on maps for a bit?

You can't prove me wrong by using my own point against me. All GL events (and BAM, SK, Aprha) are permanent events and have never had 100% of requirements farmable for any period of time before the event, unlike all Legendary events which have had some amount of farming time.

How much time did exist when all toons are made farmable for GI? The time that existed b4 for such was enough to patch it up with a bit of pile even for f2p.

The same time as has always been: ~3 weeks. The last Inquisitor was released to a node on 6/8 and the GI event ended on 6/30. For reference, I checked the JKR event. The last two Marquee were on a node on 9/26 with the event ending on 10/25. An extra week in there because you had an extra character to farm on short notice.

Ok then, my memory fails me. In relation to the topic, the -gap widening- argument is even less of an issue then. Actual experience of how it runs showcased the r9 req is even less of an issue when you can't max previous zones leading there.

Yeah, after running it it's clear there really isn't a gap widening issue here. We are a top 20 guild, we got 30*, same as (it seems) all of the top 100 guilds. I think the top 5 guilds maybe did a handful more stars, but they aren't getting drastically more rewards (because the r8/r9 rewards are absolute complete garbage).

Honestly, I was very much on the negative side of this at announcement, but after seeing it, the TB is fine. I still think the relic requirements are dumb, but overall the TB is good and for a guild our size the rewards are excellent for the effort. Although, the officers will probably burn out before too long because CG still failed to make the management side any easier.
