I’m sad about it. My group did the 250 of each mission just to see it reduced to 100… Brutal.
I hope they offer even better frames and put up a penance for grinding to 250.

Great. Then do not do them.
Maybe you are not interested in taking guitar lessons either.
Does that mean nobody else should be able to take guitar lessons?
What the hell are you on about?
These penances are 100% optional and their reward is 100% cosmetic.
The entire point of these penances and their rewards is to track what you did, and show “i did this”.
Nobody is forced to do these penances. Not completing them is completely fine.
Now FS went in for no reason and changed the penances to “i did something that takes a fraction of the time and effort” later on.
The only ones being punished here, are the ones who put in their time and effort into the game and got them devalued by a pointless change.
The time and effort of those who did the penances before, simply got devalued.
People want a portrait frame for 500k kills? Great. Give them one.
But who benefits from taking away the 1million kills penance? Nobody.
Nobody gained anything from that change.
If you do not understand this and still think that those who do not want their efforts to be deleted for no reason, are the entitled ones, i have nothing else to say to you.

as someone a decade older and also gaming for almost 40 years now (1985, Amstrad CPC464).
People are used to “show off” their pixel rewards.
Back in the days there was no online, or lets say sparse as hell, but people allways wanted to show off their highscores in games or their new home in UO.
but we also know that almost all the time developers at some time reduce the difficulty to get specific things.
It happened in so many games already.
My theory. Lot’s of decisions are made based upon server data and to please more customers.
If the analysis says 500k please more people than 1 Mio. it will get changed, no matter if some people are disappointed.
Almost everything lose worth over time, very few things get more worthy over time.

“Minimal effort” does not correctly describe 500K kills in my very honest and realistic opinion. Look I took a little break before October, but I play at least a mission or two every single day since then. I have just over 300 hours and I still dont have 500K.
I am not saying I play nearly as much as some of you, but if you ask my wife, I am always playing Darktide. 300 hours is no pittance.
I got Warp Battery a day before the patch came out and when I saw it was reduced drastically yes I did feel a little salty, like I am sure those who got the 1mil prior did and do. 1mil kills is a monumental feat, so I am also sure they felt even saltier. I get it.
But dont gaslight me like GW just did and tell me anybody can get 500k with minimal effort.

Anyone with a brain is mad at student debt relief. 10% of the population scams the 90% for their worthless education, twice (first on the loans then on the repayment). This is the reason education costs have x4 in less than 20 years and the value of degrees has fallen into the toilet. It’s basically a money laundering program into elite colleges, who turn around and give jobs to politicians after they retire, giving them insane salaries.
Meanwhile, these non-for-profit colleges pay 0 taxes, as they rake in billions from the football/basketball programs, paying coaches 50+ million dollar salaries.

i like the way they have rearranged them, it just a penance to have to do them all over again
It’s a fair complaint, though. Even with your comparison.
Imagine someone taking out a large 6-figure loan and then being “forgiven” all of it, for no reason, while everyone else gets to keep their loan anyway. That’s the type of stuff of government buildings get burned down for.
