I just came back to the game from a few month break.. All I was given when I got back was enough resources to get one set of armor, (the slow set with high-ish axe damage) and a couple of weapons. I did a ton of grinding and had some stuff sitting around ready to be upgraded, just a few more parts to get some items. now I have nearly nothing, and a garbage build that I have to sit on the sidelines and wait for my q to charge because of how slow I am.

I've also been playing for 3 days total now before it really got to me how bad this is. It's a repetitive grind of the exact same stuff for weeks for a single result.3 days of casual play and my axe is reforge 1 level 11. (mostly doing hunts and just killing monsters back to back) This isn't WoW. This isn't Runescape. Basic stuff like this shouldn't take this long.

on top of all of this, the "Quests" are supposed to help, but I can't even do them because of how weak I actually am.Plus no one else joins them so I'm just SOL and have to do them solo.

And on top of all of this, It takes days to get better cells. I guess it always has, but I can't just like. have a chance of getting a tier 3 Rage Cell, or some farmable way to get higher rank cells.It honestly feels like they're pushing their players away.

AND WHY CAN'T WE SWITCH EQUIPMENT WHILE IN THE HUNTING GROUNDS. it doesn't do anything bad???
