Is PoF going to be more of the same as HoT?

A set of exotic berserker's armor is near 100g the last time I looked. Maybe 80-something gold. I stopped looking after that. That's not including trinkets, weapons, sigils, and runes...

When I hit level 80 I had about 10g. After I emptied my bank of crafting materials I got from map completion & salvaging I had 50g. So the stuff I am wearing is yellow.

I guess I sound like a wimp. The mobs are not difficult to kill. But it was incredibly frustrating to have to spent several hours leveling the gliding, updraft, and mushroom masteries. Gliding all over, missing updrafts by thismuch, bouncy PoIs that can only be had by using the right pact chopper at night. Sucks to be you if you're the only one at the pact encampment underneath the PoI you need and you lose it cause you can't kill 20 spitball flinging tendrils by yourself. Now you have to wait 4 hours for the meta to start again and hope there's more people next time. Try the next zone? Welp. Let's hope there's a HP train coming through to kill all these champ hero challenges.

I did get the hang of the exploration bit. I figured out a very good chunk of VB, AB and TD on my own without guides but it was still disappointing every time I came to a hero challenge I could not do. Asking in map chat rarely yielded any responses and if it did, it was yelling at me to get off the map because there was a meta event going on that I didn't notice because I was focusing so hard on getting to the hero challenge.
