Are the Rewards Worth the Costs?

The rewards for Dorin Morgin’s Adventure Log are nice. The stat buffs are superior to Deve’s Adventure Log. If you have the gear on hand anyway, it’s well worth the price for permanent stat increases.

It’s simple to just buy all that you need from the Marketplace, but it’s not cheap.

The temporary item drop buffs can get as high as 20%. But it’s hard to tell if this would actually pay for the millions it might cost you.

And can anyone grind for 24 hours straight, in order to pay this pricey buff off? Hmmm…
