Bergwolf Players 21 posts 4,297 battles Report post #1 Posted January 29 Ok, probably gonna get banned, but I am so extremly livid right now, I seriously do not care anymore. I am absolutely burned out by the PEF event, played nothing else but WoWs the last couple days and weeks, spent around 30 Millions to get ships of other nations while deleting existing ships to make room for them, just to finish the last chapter of this event. And then, with half a million to go in the last category with the 6th nation finally at the end, 1 hour of playtime left maybe.....the event just ended? Deinstalling. Never going to touch this POS software ever again. Cheers guys and good bye. 8 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You could have just bought a PEF for 20$ and finished quicker, you would have got 2000 extra steel as a reward AND 6800 doubloons compensation for already having the ship when you completed the event. The ship itself is not worth the grind, PAY2WIN 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[RO-RN] Reavermann Players 20 posts 9,790 battles Report post #13 Posted January 29 When this event started and when I saw I need to actually BUY a ship to complete it, I said: hell no, I am not paying money just to complete an event. I didn't even know I could get the PEF for free. And I got it, just bu mistake, right after the event. Was I mad because I could not complete the event, or that the game just gave be the PEF right AFTER the event? Hell NO. It was MY FAULT, because I didn't get informed well about this event. And that is the situation, no need to worry about it. Just thanks to WG for another premium ship into my port. It's a stupid ship, but well, it works.

[-DKBG] gizaman Beta Tester 241 posts Report post #16 Posted January 29 Grinded the ship through 6 nations with 4 mill each. Completed also all PEF missions afterwards. Was worth it for 1,6 mill extra. Did not find the ship bad. Infact when 0.8.0 hits it is likely one of the better due to good AA. Sure it is not fuso, warspite levels but it still is okay. Was happy for the extra week time. Made the grind a lot more friendly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Considering the directives are pretty simple (as long as you play many different nations and ship types), this isn't too surprising. You should've paid a little more attention. The same kind of event went on last year with Duke of York and the year before that with Graf spee. You could either buy the ship for the mission sets, or earn it by completing a series of other missions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[CPA] Procrastes Beta Tester 2,064 posts 2,249 battles Report post #19 Posted January 29 I also failed to complete the PEF event. I didn't get very far in the 'Nerves of Steel' mission, either. And when I saw the mission requirements for getting the HMS Dreadnought "for free" in the run-up for Christmas, I actually laughed out loud. I have a wife, a day job and an active social and cultural life. I accept that this means I will not be able to complete all those missions Wargaming regularly puts on the roster. I do not see this as a problem. It's only fair that those of the playerbase who truly dedicate their time to playing the game, get some extra rewards for the effort. It would become a problem if those rewards included game-changing material or otherwise upset the in-game balance, but this has not been the case so far. Meanwhile, I see the various shifting missions as something to strive against but not necessarily to always complete. They add an extra pinch of spice to the daily (or weekly) battle sorties, and that's really their main contribution to the game, as I see it. My main reason for playing the game, is playing the game.

I admin that I kind of just ignore their announcements. I just realized that, so I'll try to keep in mind for now on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, there is goal and meaning in our path - but it's the way that is the labour's worth. ___________ From the poem "In motion" (I rörelse), by the Swedish poet and author Karin Boye. Translation by David McDuff. Oh Dear Mr. @Procrastes, How could I leave a poem with no reply? Which daemons possessed you kind Sir to feed my hunger to water my thirst? (C.P. Cavafy, Collected Poems. Translated by Edmund Keeley and Philip Sherrard. Edited by George Savidis. Revised Edition. Princeton University Press, 1992) Ithaka The Canon As you set out for Ithaka hope the voyage is a long one, full of adventure, full of discovery. Laistrygonians and Cyclops, angry Poseidon—don’t be afraid of them: you’ll never find things like that on your way as long as you keep your thoughts raised high, as long as a rare excitement stirs your spirit and your body. Laistrygonians and Cyclops, wild Poseidon—you won’t encounter them unless you bring them along inside your soul, unless your soul sets them up in front of you. Hope the voyage is a long one. May there be many a summer morning when, with what pleasure, what joy, you come into harbors seen for the first time; may you stop at Phoenician trading stations to buy fine things, mother of pearl and coral, amber and ebony, sensual perfume of every kind— as many sensual perfumes as you can; and may you visit many Egyptian cities to gather stores of knowledge from their scholars. Keep Ithaka always in your mind. Arriving there is what you are destined for. But do not hurry the journey at all. Better if it lasts for years, so you are old by the time you reach the island, wealthy with all you have gained on the way, not expecting Ithaka to make you rich. Ithaka gave you the marvelous journey. Without her you would not have set out. She has nothing left to give you now. And if you find her poor, Ithaka won’t have fooled you. Wise as you will have become, so full of experience, you will have understood by then what these Ithakas mean.
