WTF Wednesdays: Santa Villa

tumblr_lond2anSSf1qcntud_large

This will be a new thing for SaaG, just so I can have something to bitch about at least once a week so that y’all don’t think this site is dead. I’m still playing, mostly on MajorasWrath. I’m at a crossroads here, but that’s for another post. This is about Santa Villa. Now this is normally a joyous time of year for Atlantica, and I personally have looked forward to it every year since I knew it existed. This would be my fourth Santa Villa. So why would Santa Villa be the first installment of WTF Wednesdays?

Well, I’ll just put this here so you can see.

Santa Villa

Now normally, I don’t complain about an event before it actually comes on, but the rewards…really? Seriously?

Roro? Good. Valk? Okay, despite that she’s been around for a while. Hwarang? Punisher? Minstrel? WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT?

Hwarang is the cheapest one out of the bunch, and arguably the most useful out of the three C grades, even though he’s only good for heavy ranged formations, and completely useless for Bow Mains speccing Hwarang’s Aura. Minstrel has Salvation, which makes her completely useless for a post-120 Instrument Main, and the skill itself has limited uses because it takes away not only debuffs but buffs as well (not to mention that random-ass heal). Punisher? Horrible tank and has awakening, but so does Roro. I dunno, I’d choose a Roro over something that will drop in two magic shots.

Let’s talk about the exchange rate. 900 for a Roro. Let’s hope that the words are easy to get. As in, the drop rate on those motherfuckers BETTER be good, especially since you only have an hour to spend in there a day.

Me? I’m hoping that the experience in there is decent. I don’t see myself getting a Roro or a Valk (for Majora, Yvi already has a Valk) in the 3 weeks unless I fork over A LOT of gold for the words. Is there any silver lining though?

ANY AT ALL?!

We got Grinched.

Although, I will say that I do love that Scrooge will be back. I loved him 2 years ago since I couldn’t step foot in SV that year due to the skirmish area being completely bugged out the ass.

Oh yeah, SV is a mix of skirmish and classic fights, which is good. I don’t mind skirmish, but I do prefer classic fights, so I would more than likely be playing classic most the time.

But yeah, it’s a wait and see at this point.
