Don't get me wrong; I still think it's the best MMO out there. I just wish they could come up with some other hook then getting the "Uber Godly Epic Artifact of Superior Leetness".

I never could understand why there were always so many high level characters standing around in the main cities, doing nothing. After I made 60, it hit me. Either they are waiting to get a in group for some dungeon/battleground, or they are doing it so they can show off all their cool "stuff" to all the "lowbies". Trouble is it's too easy to get the good stuff and most every other 60 already has it too. It really doesn't take that much skill, just time invested. (Especially PvP) Hell, I've even had level 60s follow my low level Alliance rogue around practically screaming, "Look at me! Look at all cool stuff! DAMMIT LOOK AT MY EPIC MOUNT!" It just loses it's luster when you see 30 other characters with damn near the exact same gear and know that it's not about skill, but merely time. These days, when I see someone decked out in epics I just yawn and keep going. It reminds me that they didn't get that stuff because of any skill or personal ability, just sitting in front of their computer night after night after night. Oh well, such is the bane of all MMOs I guess.
