Ninja nerf to missionsFollow

Sorry, dont mean to pick on you or insult you in any way, but (and there is always a but, isnt there?) I dont see this as a nerf at all. They simply corrected an error in the design of the mission. Anyone who has played the dodh missions and recalls the bards' ability to solo a certain dodh mission until soe fixed the mission would know this fix was incoming. Did you really think SOE designed a mission that you cannot get without a group of at least three people to be soloed by one player, be it a rogue or sk or monk, without requiring any kills at all? It was nice for rogues for a while, but anyone who had reasonable expectations would not call this a nerf, it was a fix, plain and simple.

My main is a rogue and I DON'T think it was a nerf. No class should have the ability to solo a GROUP mission.

Now Library Heist....THAT was a nerf.

It may be that this type of quest exploit is set up to sell expansions, same as loot goofs in other expansions that get people to buy the expansion just in time to see the exploits corrected, but, regardless of how much time it takes to do the mission, or how long the lockout is afterwards, or how many orum it takes to buy a full set of TBS gear, you aren't being realistic if you think the devs ever intended the player base to do the missions while sitting on their collective butts watching a rogue solo them so they could get the rewards for no effort at all. I just dont think the game has ever given people something for no effort at all and that is what was happening with this mission. So I would have to say this was a correction to an exploit, not a nerf. Was the exploit intended to sell the expansion? We will never know the answer to that question =P.

Of course, there are still issues that are similar to this exploit, such as ubers duoing the mission while 4 other people sit afk in the guildhall but hasn't been addressed and probably never will be addressed.
