Even doing level 12 explores during Gnome-a-Palooza, using my Slayer(Fireblade)+Zuulgoth team, I still get reduced rewards, because the battles are less than a minute long. So there is really no point at all in doing anything but trying to spam as many fights as possible to get just plain vault keys and ignore the reduced rewards.
This change gutted legit players. I can understand if you don’t want players blowing through gnomes for maximum rewards, but when I’m doing Level 12 Explores during GAP using a legit team, I shouldn’t have my rewards penalized at all.
Okay that’s a bad example…
Okay that’s a bad example too, that fight took way longer and two gnomes even got casts off (but didn’t run away).
Let’s try this again… actually, I’ll ditch the Scurvy Seadog for my normal Leprechaun.
Okay… well, let’s try this again, I had two Mech gnomes in there immune to fire. Whoops, I forgot to set my Slayer talent to Firestorm. DOH! Okay, now the fights are way faster. BEHOLD, MY REWARDS:
