I finally understand why they did it. It's the Tricorn again. Pvp players contstantly whine about balance and nerfs. Raiders constantly whine about nerfs, exploits and RNG. They needed to get us solo players whining too. They weren't content with us happily whizzing about on our sparrows, picking flowers and mining. Slowly but surely grinding our way to 29. Now they have it. They've officially upset every type of player. ;D
