Tough choice, considering that True Hearts are going up by 200 TP. I wonder what is up with the Demon Sands price increase?

	Quote: non-epic are the same xp. I know that a level 20 enters a CR21+ challenge, their XP scales up (which has now been cut in half). Would a toon that is under 20 get less xp now if they started farming epic tokens (CR21+), compared to before the xp nerf? Or will their xp pay out still be based on "heroic" xp formula?

	Sub-20 toons have always used the heroic formula, even on CR21+ challenges. The recent adjustment to epic challenge xp should only apply to level 20+ players. edit: but who knows if they screwed up the coding. I haven't tested the numbers since this latest change, so I can only really confirm that level 1-19 players never saw an xp increase for epic challenges after the expansion was released.

	The funny thing here is, cannith challenges never had the stupidly blown up xp totals. Epic Buying Time was about 30k a run for a 6 star run at 24. Now it doesn't even hit 14k. This is for a 9 minute quest. I can get more xp faster in eh von6, or house of rusted blades. Tldr, fucking turbine doesn't get why their changes are poorly received.

	Quote: 200 more tp for a TR heart? Do people actually buy those in the store? I did the first time. Then I came to the conclusion I was paying them because I hated what they did to endgame but still wanted to keep my stuff. Ground em out/just rerolled since. No point in rewarding em financially for stuff I despise, after all. Sends the wrong message.

	Quote: I have when they've been on sale. They are a really bad deal. 20 tokens = buying time x ~25 = 2 hours saved. One major pot = .2 * 6 hours = 1.2 hours saved. Except a major pot is about 10x cheaper.

	Some people prefer to use the tokens for slotting their epic items and just buy the tr heart. I don't see the point in giving them money to torture myself through another life.

	1295 is better, but still waiting for a sale. The challenge pack is the only thing I don't own, and I can't sit there and do run after run of the stuff anyway. If they'd take it down to 995 points I would go for it. Sands looks expensive, too. How much is Gianthold?
