Well I enjoy the purges , but the problem is I fend off a few , everything is OK and then there is THAT ONE that spawns right near the base and then it is more or less certain that some thrall will die .

Over the last few months I’ve even gotten used to them dying a lot (but that doesn’t mean I’m not upset about losing a few really good ones I’ve had for a long time) and I’ve even stopped trying to give them any extra boost via elixir of rebirth - it’s not worth it when they die in a few days.
But for me personally, the really big problem is that leveling a Cimmerian is just VERY long and VERY boring. It makes the game feel more like work than fun.

Overall, the new Funcom idea of “nothing lasts forever” doesn’t sit well with me - It used to be a game where you’d build up good thralls and get used to them , laboriously get a rare legendary item and kill legions of enemies with it …
Now it’s all about leveling up and leveling up more bersekers to replace losses and picking up another Predatory Blade in UC because the one I have only lasts a few days…

By the way, don’t you think that somehow nerfed Elixir of Rebirth? Usually 20-30 was enough for a really good combo, last time I needed almost 300 before crap like cannibal perk stopped dropping.
