They increased the drop rate, remember?
 * Still thinks they rolled back the drop rate like what happened to Trigger Fingers 3 or 4 times*

This. The very thought of rolling another alt makes me cringe. It seems to me that in every aspect of the game the fundamental game design from the beginning was "How can we make this not fun?"

Probably work on GA and DS. You know, content, things I actually care about. When I do finally move on to a different game, I won't be looking back wishing I would have spent a few more hundred hours doing dailies on alts. There seem to be 3 major schools of thought on this: 1. The 1-2 char guy who doesn't mind rep grinding, can't see what the fuss is about, and thinks everyone is a bunch of entitled crybabies who want everything handed to them. 2. The guy who doesn't care about amps/ap points, "brooo you can totes heal/dps whatever man with stock points, why do you guys care". 3. People like me, with a lot of toons, who care about being able to play expanded builds and squeezing the last drop out of a class, and can't stand/don't have all day for doing the same set of quests every day on multiple toons for months/years. AMPs/AP point grinding is not a personal progression "carrot" that keeps people logging in, it's just a misplaced time sink that is extremely punishing to people that alt. The value to time spent is 100% out of whack here. Edit @olivar, nobody has rushed through GA/DS and gone, oh wait I've cleared the game pretty much, thank god I still have rep to grind for AMPs/AP, or I'd be sitting here bored. Just what? :rolleyes:

It could work. It would definitly encourage me to get my characters beyond the third zone... Although the lack of AMPS is not really what me personally is holding me back on leveling an alt, it's going through everything again at the same slow speed. Then again, having access to those extra points at the start might speed it up.... I'm just going to be indecisive on your suggestion evade, as I cannot say if it would benefit me or not. EDIT: Although "slow" speed is relative, since I maxed out in 4 days.... I think it's just that seeing the content again for me is too soon at the moment.

Mmmm, being a medic is the biggest power difference in PvP right now. A medic with another t4/t8 won't be very different either, a medic with more amps will just have more survival abilities as well and to be fair hitting 50 amps isn't difficult, another 4-5 are typically rather minimal benefits.

I just got my last point via Defile Rep. As someone who tried out but ultimately didn't get hooked by most of that, I only log on for raids now. I miss having a solid goal to log on for when I'm playing solo, but I hate the idea of doing all that over again for alts. 4 out of the 5 daily rep grinds were actually plenty fun to do... once. I've never been much of an alt person in other MMOs either though, so take that how you will.
