Please, no. They will probably have one of the items require that you have the table flipper achieve.
I don't know how OP feels about overseer, but I have very strong feelings ... words describing those are not really suitable for public forums tho .
Just got off the phone with Ngreth, the next expansion's chase loot will require Hero's Journey, Breakdown in Communication and vanilla/kunark/velious hunter to be completed.
I agree most were well over the top. I don't mind though if the requirements are 1) relevant to the item, and 2) reasonable. The boots requiring you travel to every zone would be an example imo.
