I think making the daily quests that involve creatures match your current player level, anyone can kill 75 rats in a matter of seconds... why not make ot that tad bit more challenging and make people hit creatures of their current level...

EOC players don't have creatures at their level.  For this to be fair, it would have to be for a range near the player's level. (Perhaps within 100 levels of player's current level.)

Otherwise, I like the idea :)

a bleak darkness full of nothingness where the only hope is to swing  blindly at a creature 20-30 levels below them

With Super Pots entrenched to dumb down the game having that shouldn't be a problem!

I'm looking forward to seeing how this works out

 

hoof, i realise for 250k gold in gold upgrades u can get +10 max stam though 75 to maybe 90 stam(depending on dodges/2% misses/other) for +5 max stam which would cost 125k gold roughly, via gold upgrades anyway isnt making a totally fun impact, everyone atm is buzzing cos something new and there IS a medal, if my advice was spent, id make it +10 max stamina if this is to be the initial daily quest, its only once a day, people still need big donating to progress their max stam to the loftiest of heights.

 

 

 

edit: @JD... saw what u said, constructive here so dont eat my noodles :P

 

Not eating noodles---just providing a bit of context. It would cost 125k gold to buy +5 max stam. Even if killing 75 critters also took 50 stam in travel, that is still only 37.5k gold from hunting (assumming 100%1-hit kills at level with no walking and no buffs). So it may seem small, but it is still pretty generous for a daily.

 

My opinion is rewards should be equal and maybe kill a 300 xritters your level with no buffs would be cool or kill 3 super elites gain 50 pvp prestige participate in a conflict complete a bounty walk x amount of steps on map steal x amount of gold just some extra ideas :)

 

killing 300 critters - possibly spending 350 stam to do it: that is 25% of the daily stam for a newish player in a guild. I'd think that is too much to be asking for a daily.

 

On the other hand, if it were something they'd be doing anyway (e.g. because they do hunt daily) then it could reasonably demand more stam.

 

 

EOC players don't have creatures at their level.

 

Then what do they have?

 

I think wolf was concerned about if the HAD to kill AT level. It is currently pretty hard to kill a level 3101 creature (or higher).  Having said that, I can't see HCS falling into such a trap.

I think it's a good idea, the reward is rubbish

 

Then don't do it. 

 

But guess what, there are medals involved... and that helps Pride. I bet a lot of people do them at the start to get them nice shinies. *chuckles*

Just wanna say kudos to HCS for adding something new, and something that I like as well.
And congrats for keeping the game alive for so long xD Just something that had to be said.

The daily event only takes 2-5 minutes and roughly 200 stamina for 1 FSP worth of Max Stam. If you think the reward is lacking then dont do it. Go camp some Titans or GvG to your hearts content, thats all your choice. This is a new event for players that want to have something to do when they would otherwise not. 

 

Is this update extremely creative? No, I could have done this before and just gotten no rewards for it. But it is something else that everyone can participate in and one of the first updates in a long time that actually adds some new elements to the game. Personally I would have preferred the competitive model presented before, since you could throw more time and resources into it if you felt like competing on that day vs the daily tasks which appears pretty short in length.

We need to test Daily Quests a little more tomorrow, but I think we're ready for the initial release of them tomorrow.

 

Initially there will be a few different variations on the quests and rewards, but it's definitely something we'll want to expand upon over time to keep it interesting I think!

You TEST stuff now before implementing ? - who are you, and what have you done with Hoof ? ;)


Homer : Marge, don't discourage the boy. Weaseling out of things is important to learn. It's what separates us from the animals .. except the weasel.

 

Eddie Izzard : The National Rifle Association say that guns don't kill people, people do. But I think the gun helps, you know ? I think it helps. I think just standing there going "BANG" - that's not going to kill too many people, is it ?

 

I don't mean to sound pessimistic, but it seems that everything I eat lately turns to poo ...
