    Why were the Crucible armor/wep vendors removed?

    I hope this is just temporary because i thought it was a great idea to get more participation involved in another "fun activity" among the few things there is to do on this server. There was actually motivation behind all of the repetitiveness of 1vs1 arena pvp. And since only the non-noble items were buyable (basically skins), I thought it worked out for both the players and the "business" side of gamez.

    Hopefully we can get the vendor NPCs back cause the Arena is dead without them, and I actually had a lot of fun doing non-zerg pvp. T_T

    Thanks devs

    They removed it coz they dont want the Coliseum Champion Set and Weapons obtainable on game. They purposely put these item only obtainable through Special Donation or Event Shop.

    Always this same damn reason and majority of the people don't even know what "bug" is it or if there's "really" one. Same goes for the medal fountain.

    Don't know till' when it'll be like this that once you can't fix something or don't even try to, you remove it without letting people know what the bug was so we would stop guessing that it was removed for the good ol' reason which is to put them in credit shop.

    Last time there was actually a bug in there where you could get an extremely large amount of Crucible tokens in a matter of minutes through the group Crucible Challenge now I have not been on in a while so I don't know if there really is a bug again but if they were supposibly removed for a bug then there most likely is something wrong with them. Had they intended to make those skins only obtainable through the webshop they would have done it a long time ago.

    what happens is that I did not work the stages but could come and go to farm.

    I was going to the beach with intentions to get courage and buy something ncc. but removed the npc, now is not whether to keep going with friends to duels for some medals and if the NPC will have or not, and if placed, could be bought from them?

    A better solution if they truly did see "bug" abusing, or even if they wanted to sell the Coliseum Champion (non-noble) weps and armors is to atleast keep the NPC there to sell only the "Yellow" gears similar to mudslime or tac NCO, theyre nothing more than skins but atleast theres some kind of motivation to keep people lined up to pvp in the 1vs1 arena. Eventhough some people may not be interested in those yellow skins, it will atleast be something to participate in and work towards rather than the same yo-yo zerg fest in the same ol spots.

    Why spend all that time and effort fixing all these arena bugs if you cant get anyone lined up to participate in it? The arena was fixed since 2.5 but after the NPCs were removed then too, the line of participation begin to dwindle down to nothing and all that time and effort poured into fixing the arena and running live tests on the test server were wasted.

    I really hope this gets to the Devs because i genuinely enjoyed the 1vs1 action. Not even for the skins but for the actual gameplay. but its kinda hard to find opponents now because most everyone else wanted those skins and only played in the arena to acquire something.

    They just dont want the value of the ABG gears to depreciate because it would shift the market. ABG gears has been out-dated for two major patches, come on Gamez.

    I was really looking forward to that freakin Greataxe man. Seriously.
