Ok, let me start off by saying not everyone farms i know. I also know that not all areas are dead.

I do however think they killed farming. Take for instance the ecto. Who hasnt gotten an ecto latly? Now that decreases the value ALOT! Now onto other things. Like for instance 55 Monk/55 Necro/Tank farming of trolls. How in the world can anyone be happy killing lvl20^ creatures and getting 99% blue/white drops. This isnt just in troll caves eather.

Now i want to bring up other points. Anet doesnt allow gold selling legally. Which makes anyone who does buy gold have to pay an arm and a leg. Personally i dont want or need to buy that gold. It does seem like its coming to that though. I run a group of farmers "Farm the World Guild". We farm from tombs, sorrows furnace, trolls, griffens, factions locations, and UW/FoW. The farming has gone to crap and i am tired of it.

For instance, who cant get an ecto so the price dropped. I used to get atleast 1 black dye a week. Havnt gotten one since factions came out. Yet the game company has limited the supplies merchants can sell. They also nerfed half the farming abilities. Then they never lowered the prices on goods such as armour and weapons at smiths.

I think this is about the end of what i can take. It used to be that if you wanted a good weapon you went farming and went out and bought it. Now finding a good mod or weapon is like hunting the red october.

I dont sit around and brag about farming or what i have from farming. Neather do i sell my gold. Though these game devolpers are stopping me from being able to earn gold. I used to make 30k a day troll farming for 9 hours. It will now take me 4 days to earn that.

All i am getting at is this. The nerfing must stop!

P.S. I was told to come voice my opinion on the dev corner here so i could get my opinion out and show that i am not the only one tired of the nerfing.

I'm sorry, but this thread is a whopping can of worms. I understand you have complaints and that you want Arena Net to hear them, but believe me... they've heard them.

We have many threads on this subject (which invariably turn into a flame-fest):
Here
Here (an opposed view, but ends up the same way as the other threads.)
And here.

Incidentally, the recent patch actually increased the drops of ectos and shards.

Please make use of the search feature to be sure that your suggestion has not been suggested before. ANet certainly doesn't need to hear them multiple times.
