Levram Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 (edited) There is achievement in being the first to complete a HM or harder operation. Pointless "achievements" like being the first to cheese a level or complete an easy mode flashpoint are pointless. It's like being the first to, say, wipe on a particular quest. And? There is no race to being the first guild to clear hard mode operations. Nightmare mode is the only meaningful operation race in the game, and even that race is generally meaningless these days with open PTS and nightmare Dread Palace being cleared within four hours of its Live release. I refer you to this thread for the current discussion. Edited November 17, 2014 by Levram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foambreaker Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Quick, level to 60, skip the content, then complain about a lack of endgame content Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heal-To-Full Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 There is no race to being the first guild to clear hard mode operations. No game-wide race, but server-wide, guilds still occasionally go for it. Kinda. It doesn't matter much, but on PvP servers and such, there's some desire to be the first, or the first on your imp/pub side, or so. SM, on the other hand, is entirely meaningless and no one cares, just as no one cares about the first to level X. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TravelersWay Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 your insight though is worth even less. Actually, I found his insight to be very worthwhile. Much more so than any "server first" listed here which will most likely not be server first because there's a bunch of us to have been server firsts in the past and don't mention a thing about it because we are not that self-absorbed.

jstankaroslo Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 its the journey, not the finishline, that is worth the effort. Preordered just to experience GETTING to 60, not BEING 60 (and have nothing to do but dailies) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MeNaCe-NZ Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 I wouldn't want to wager against anyone coming from PTS since they already ideally have the inside knowledge and with the nda in place we won't know who is part of the PTS making this all possibly rigged. also thanks for the tip in this thread of hanging back behind everyone picking up the left over new materials, good idea though for this to work I'd probably need get my toon that uses bioanalysis to 55 which I kinda can't be bothered doing right now.
