I wonder what my Beta reward is this year.
And WTF??
- Origin is now auto-granted at level 5 to all players. The reuse time has been lowered to 18 minutes.
- Hastened Origin has been refunded, as it is no longer relevant.
Game breaking much? If people want to be able to gate they have Gate Potions, sorry Shammies you lost SoW, now you can lose Gate too. Honestly it's not that hard to get around in EQ anymore.

I doubt many people would use origin as a serious way of gating their toons. At the amount of platinum that is earnable today compared to to 120ish pp per gate pot, i know for one ill keep using gate pots on krit.
Your beta reward is a Hadal skin on a mercenary. /yawn
suppose it's beta than some dodgy alaran model but i was still hoping for an illusion

I better get something more than that. At last count I clicked over 12,000 beta stones (actual number was 12,021)... Yes I know, no life.Covou wrote:I doubt many people would use origin as a serious way of gating their toons.

I have not really used origin for a few years except going back for making the culture armor on a few times.
I did use it a lot when it was first available, because it was the first gate like abilities I had back then other than the potions. These days I only really use Throne of heroes and the pok gate brick.
However useful it is also depend on your race, for example the wood elf one is pretty decent, as you do not need another zone to hit the pok stone.
