I'm dismissing them because you still aren't thinking critically. I can't help you with that. I've already spelled it out for you. I'm sorry that you think a player grinding their ass off for a month on three (3) characters would have the chance at 12 Etheric Lights is too detrimental to the new end game content. Even though this would encourage players to grinder their asses off to make this happen. This game is all about grinding and keeping players on the servers for as long as possible. This is where critical thinking is important. That is a shit load of grinding. I'm guessing most players won't put in the time across three (3) characters to make this happen. So, it's probably a safe assumption that the max of 12 Etheric Light in a month will probably be much smaller on the average. If you're just mad because you think any other avenue other than what is currently available will "ruin" PoE and ToO. Well, I don't know what to tell you other than to try thinking it through again.
