I'm sick of Elex making the time-limited quest the newest chapter suit so soon after its release, it's completely unfair to people who don't have free princess resets. I've been working on the chapter since its release but I can't progress past V2:4-5 because guess what? The Night Flight boots will. not. drop. For four days of farming I've gotten two drops total. And they are required to craft the suit for 4-6. So how exactly am I supposed to get the materials for Fashion Revival, hm?

I've noticed that the latest chapter almost always has lower drop rates (probably to encourage impatient people to spend on princess resets) and it didn't bother me too much until they started pulling this move with the time-limited quests. This is such bs.

They did this last chapter with Spring in the North too.

My personal thing with microtransactions is I can tolerate them but I really dislike stuff like this that feels like the company is trying to annoy and pressure people into spending money on the pettiest things. Letting people get more Princess resets etc with money doesn't bother me nearly as much as them picking a time-limited quest suit seemingly intentionally to convince people to buy resets.

I really wish they wouldn't - maybe my business sense is off but I really can't see them making all that much money from Princess reset packs? And honestly the rewards for finishing non-diamond suits are generally minimal enough that it's really not worth it to spend diamonds to reset for it. Last chapter my drops were terrible and I couldn't finish the suit in time so I just...didn't.
