Overrcorrections. I think last time was a little harder than it should have been, this time is probably a little lighter than it should be.

Otoh, I'm an endgame account, I love seeing less-advanced clanmates enthusiastic about hitting the max rewards. 

Really, if they change anything it should be the length of the event. 1 week, with advanced notice for those who just don;t have the time to play everyday.

I can definitely see how one could argue it's been nerfed a bit too hard but given all the things we need to do in game everyday, how many resources we need now, etc. it's kind of nice to just have this be a loot pinata.

Thats why youre an award winning mod. 

Well most of us here sit in that weird spot of "can do everything with minimal effort".  Whales chasing #1 spots and midgamers going all out to max the event.  Was too easy for me to max but if that helps players lower on the ladder than me Im all for it.
