You are comparing Apples to Oranges by saying that you've not done finished the UC but you know it's a pain in the butt. In that example you have seen everything required to do the UC, you just haven't finished it. You can calculate about how long it will take you to farm four charms to 25 in LDoN. You know how long it will take you to get the Cyan stones required to make your 50 charms. So in that example you know exactly what it will take for you to complete the UC.
That said, you and your guild have not spawned The MCP. Therefore any comments by you on it's difficulty is purely speculative. I've also noticed that a good portion of your speculation is based on inaccurate information. Yes, FoH has put 20+ people in airplane to down The MCP. It just so happens that we had that many people in the zone because that is who happened to be online when we decided we were going to kill some mobs. After you've tried the mob a couple of times then you can intelligently comment on it's difficulty.
There are three guilds on this server that could down The MCP if they took the time to farm the stones and learn the fight. Forbidden Prophecy, Rising of Light and Bastions of Honor.
Not sure why you guys continue to stress this shit.
You do NOT need to spawn a mob in game to comment on the progression of the server, gimme a break.
Discussion forums are exactly that, open forums for discussion and just because someone disagrees with you, does not mean they are immediately wrong.
I have full right to comment on whether or not a quest is "proven", "not proven" or even speculatively difficult because thats it, its just a comment.
There is a good portion of the server that believes the 4.0 quest requires TOO much effort, doesn't matter if they haven't spawned it or not, they have a right to offer an opinion.
My opinion and I will state it again, I think I maybe wrong since the 4.0 requires significantly more effort than the previous epics underneath it. But since speaking with Crab, speaking with my guild-mates and understanding whats going on. It might be in-line with the 3.0's of before since acquiring the 3.0 with a bunch of 2.5's maybe be inline with acquiring the 4.0 with a bunch of 3.0's and t3 geared toons.
On a side note, I think you guys are personally too attached to the upper end content and are slightly biased when commenting on quests or content lower down in the game.
Example, was speaking with Crab today saying that I still believe the Charm quest needs to be fixed since its painful to obtain the charms now.
His comment and others on the server is... omg dont touch it, farming HOH for the upgrades is a godsend.
Well, thats perfect for those of you who are farming HoH for upper end charm upgrades but reality is, I have 4 new members of my guild that have been in LDON for 2 days now and have seen ONE charm upgrade.
So, even though the upper portion of the quest is fixed, the bottom part of the quest is horribly broken. Again, though, most of those who comment or believe they have this "righteous word" againts the quest havent had the pleasure of farming LDON6 with 19, yes, thats 19 other players in the zone AFTER its already been nerfed.
