If anything, this event will put more Moolah into circulation for trading. People that would not/could not donate will now get a chance to get some Moolah. Some may look on it as unfair and say the same strong players will win all the time but from what I have seen so far it doesn't make a bit of difference since both times I watched a Fire Pit people were just looting the chest without even getting attacked because players were too busy fighting somebody else.
The Fire Pit will probably remain as a high-level only event. I cannot start catering to players camping lower levels because I want people at max level so that battlefields and pk are more populated instead of a few in each bracket, and I'm fairly certain the people complaining are campers right?
More events like this will mostly likely come later but I want to see how this works out first.
