I have no problem admitting to using farming on my first 50 since homecoming popped up. I tried levelling 'the normal way' as so many people suggest, and I was on some TERRIBLE teams. Like, REALLY terrible. When I realised that I could do it myself, and quite efficiently, I did. I wasn't using one of the ambush maps, so I did run into the aggro cap at times. I do still find it amusing when it happens: just ignore the explosion of flames and that charring smell- it doesn't concern you...
I understand that the server resources are limited (hopefully less so with the upcoming move), but I also saw Tempest's comments in discord which seemed very much opposed to ae farming at all. This is something that bothers me. If the server can't handle it-fine. If the devs want to dictate how people play- that does ruffle my feathers. Especially now that players are funding the servers.
I really hope that this can be smoothed over soon™, and look forward to having more options.
