Is this lackluster showing on this GE is to make a point of some sort, It's just sad, if that's so?
I'll make my qualifying run soon.
If the community does not want to take part in these anymore perhaps Hoof should just drop them.
This "PARTICULAR" one may well be making a point indirectly, but to say drop them all is a ridiculous comment to make.
MOST make crystal or ruby tier these days.
THIS one has, compared to other GE reward chests, very under-powered potions and less buffs within those potions.
The main problem with this event, I think, is that the cows have made all the other GE chests more attractive / useful and these contained buffs can be, pretty much, obtained via other means with just a little bit of gold / fsp / effort spent.
AL400 - Other GE containers and composing
Sacrifice 350 - Other GE containers
SSI 350 - Invented Pots
Force Shield 300 - Invented Pots
Epic Forge 250 - Unsure ?
Co-Ordinated Defence 300 - Composing & Scavenging
Fortitude 300 - Unsure
It's not even so much that these are under-powered per se, it's that they're under-powered compared to the other GE rewards. So, yes, the participation on this is very low - but I have to point the finger at the cows for at least 50% of the blame here for making other GE's far more attractive compared to this one.
Should all other GE pots be nerfed ? - Should this ones pots be increased in power ? - Should this particular GE be scrapped ? - Not my call to make.
Personally, I have little to zero use for these containers so have done enough to qualify, but that's all - as I suspect an awful lot of others have done, judging by the top 100 list.
Finally, I find it a little bit offensive (to those who have done their runs, for whatever number of kills) for you to post your "is this lackluster showing" comment, calling folk out (indirectly) whilst you've not even done it yourself (I'll make my qualifying run soon ... )
Addendum : I love the global events and always participate in them, so cows, don't take this as an attack nor as a "give me more" post. The main problem is, I think, you give TOO much already and then folk always want more and more. I'd be happy were all other GE potions lowered in level, but I suspect I'd be in a minority there LOL.

Homer : Marge, don't discourage the boy. Weaseling out of things is important to learn. It's what separates us from the animals .. except the weasel.
Eddie Izzard : The National Rifle Association say that guns don't kill people, people do. But I think the gun helps, you know ? I think it helps. I think just standing there going "BANG" - that's not going to kill too many people, is it ?
I don't mean to sound pessimistic, but it seems that everything I eat lately turns to poo ...
