Echo of the Abolisher would be more rewarding as a recall, NOT a memento.

Pixiepumpkin · May 31

I offer this as feedback and a positive critique.

The memento "Echo of the Abolisher" would have been more rewarding as a recall we worked towards, not a memento. Mementos are cool and all, but functionally kinda useless in game. Recalls are something we use often, hourly and offer a lot of flavor and fun to the game.

Please consider this in the future when you are making something as cool as the Echo of the Abolisher memento. A cool useful reward from a long grind is more rewarding than giving a cool reward that serves no real function and is often forgotten about as it collects dust in our collections.

Agreed. That would be an ~AMAZING~ recall animation.

Yes, it would be a good recall! It's taking me a while to get all the remnants so a recall at the end would be very rewarding.

100%. I got the achieve recently and when I used it the first thing that popped into my mind was "This is similar to the mage recall (the portal part), this would have been cooler as a recall".

I thought the same thing. Would have been a neat recall style to obtain.

That's literally a portal. They should just convert it now.

On a related note I wish some mementos were less locked animations and more toggleable persistent effects. I want to be able to walk around in my graven deep bubble. Or keep the trinket light on permanently to use as a player marker.

I know what you mean. I'd love to use the dwarven chest memento as part of my wardrobe full time.

It would also be nice to be able to use mementos and or emotes as part of our personalities, and I mean function that goes beyond the addon that works in a similar way.

I thought the same thing when I received the memento as a reward. What a waste of potential

So you farmed for it knowing it was a memento, but you're mad it isn't something else? You didn't have to farm for it...

You cannot preview mementos you do not posess so unlocking this and realizing that the animation would be much more fitting for a different ingame function is completely understandable.

1. You can not preview mementos, but that is irrelevant and has nothing to do with this thread.
2. I never asserted I was upset or angry there is no reason to suggest I was or am.
3. As I stated in my OP, I was giving constructive criticism on the value of mementos vs a recall in this instance.
