A perfect opportunity missed

[Greavous]

I just handed in the Thexian Artifacts collection. After following the lore in great deal over the last month or so I was really looking forward to finding out what insite this was going to give. Didn't want money, maybe a house item, a key anything that would ether advance the lore path or even a reminder of the path I'd been on with a item I could have to remember it all. I handed it in and was told it was a great find and I should be rewarded. I waited and clicked. Nothing. Nada. Zilch.I sent in a bug report and was told I had received some xp.Sorry isn't this zone supposed to be for lvl 70's. Lvl 70 + xp = ?For those who have battled this zone you will understand that this is no ordinary collection quest. Not only do you have to battle mobs to get to the shinies, but when you harvest them there seems to be a 50% chance you spawn a mob instead with no collection piece given.SOE. You missed the boat. A lot of people have been really looking forward to this. Have a lot of peeps hooked on the lore and this just dampens the experience. Please keep the lore paths coming. Its breathed new life into the game for me.But please do something with this reward.

This book is acquired by Goin....and..........then u have to.....................on the right. Then go and.......................and there you have it.That is when the new master is revealed
