… and the holidays taketh away.
Folks are all a-twitter that the temp powers from the Holiday Event (in particular the Rez and the Five Gold Rings), which were evidently always intended to be real-time duration, but were rolled out as game-time duration, have been changed to real-time (and poof!).
Ah, well. Having the (very short) hold was kinda handy, and the rez was okay, but, jeez, to read some posts, you’d think the Devs had pissed in their corn flakes.
There is, to be sure, some minor justification for all those folks who ground their dozen alts through all the Holiday mishes to get the powers, but, as someone noted, “12 days of game time” is 288 hours, which is enough for some folks to get to 50. Which is hardly a “temp” power.
This one (since I declined to invest all that time) get a big “Meh!” from me.
