We received word of this crisis quest 3 weeks ago, now while we have not known the details until now it was a no brainer to figure out some of the preparation which could be done. Based on the last crisis quest it made sense to start buying certain items if you did not already have them. You can bet now the details are out those items are now going to be more expensive. What is obvious is they did listen to the complaints about 4 winds and have come up with decent set of quest. As always there is going to be a minority who see no need to do the quests. How about this time you stay silent and let the rest of us enjoy it, we are not stupid we know there will always be players who find an event pointless from their point of view.
