#970242 Inventing ignores craft and folders

Posted by Egami on 13 October 2016 - 18:51

It's been ages since I did this, but I vaguely remember that my work around (not solution mind you and I'm glad HCS is "looking into it") was to Auction off the perfects while inventing. 

 

Hope that helps a bit.

They'll be staying put as rewards, so no fear on that score.

Allegiance tokens are the worst rewards.

 

For you. Not for everyone.

I'm slowly working toward the chest medals, I don't have the tokens to do anything above the bronze chest.  I used them when I first started to play then had to stop and use gold instead.

 

I have just recently passed the 2k count on them.  I'm glad some people have enough of them, but I do not and am always happy to see them for my daily.

 

I like the tokens,  the max stam, reserve stam and even current stam if I can combine it when I level.

Sorry but useful for what exactly? We get 5 a day for simply logging in...

 

Davros,

 

Unitl I levelled far enough in composing, I was constantly buying loaytly AL180 and DBLR 1200 for my hunts. I still maintain that they are two very useful loyalty potions. I would have had to have enough stam to hunt just once per month for the 5 tokens per day to supply those hunts (perhaps every 2-3 weeks given the GE pots provide high level versions of these too). I think I played for 7 years before I was able to hunt once a fortnight.

 

It is important to remember that *many* in the game do not live within well developed guilds that are full of high level players.




#970037 Composing question?

Posted by Egami on 08 October 2016 - 17:19

to delete the old to begin with, and then hope you remember to recreate the whole thing properly (I lost count of the number of times when I did this that I forgot to change the duration, or included a buff that was meant to go in a different combination, or ... ).

 

May be a wee bit off topic and I agree with row's point. Just thought a suggestion here would be useful.

 

What I do is open two tabs with composing, I select Use for the "old pot". I update the new skill level. 

 

Then I go to the other tab and delete the pot. 

 

Then I go back to the updated tab and save it with the same name.

 

Totally inefficient and what-have-you. Only put this here in case it helps players in the current situation.

 

Def would hope that this whole process gets better.




#970000 Game Update 2.9 - Daily Quests!

Cal... yep... great that it's Friday.

 

Def not "trying" to single you out and "yes", I've seen you supporting. Thank goodness not everybody is profit based.

 

The problem I have is with "the rewards are laughable sometimes". 

 

This is not to say that I don't agree for my character personally, but I don't see a positive "solution" to that. 

 

We have medal chasers out there... some have said in this thread that they have done each one every day. I've seen some that have achieved the medal already.

 

The general vibe I tend to get from complaints, not yours, are: Geez, the prize for the particular DQ I do isn't worth the effort. And by "prize", those people compare the "prize" to the "effort" and don't calculate anything beyond the "prize".

 

Really the question is: Why don't we just give anyone who completes a DQ 100 FSP? Gee, that would really up participation. 

 

Again, it's my personal opinion that a DQ shouldn't be something that has a prize that supercedes the game effort. And again, that's just my opinion. 

 

All of us play the game so differently, it's silly to think that we all play the same. Our circumstances are also hugely varied. 

 

I'm more apt to spend 1k stam for a pittance of Reserve Stam, for example. I'm more apt to do the PvP ones that cause me way less effort and stam. 

 

I'm happy to spend 40 stam to get 100 stam on a PvP DQ. It seems logical to me that a "leveler" would skip that because they believe that there are other potential costs involved.

 

In my personal case, if someone bounties and organizes to take 5 levels on one of my 10 stam hits for the DQ, I actually benefit. 

 

Do I think this is the norm? No. 

 

In a nutshell, for every one of those "laughable" rewards, I'm sure HCS could pull out players that have done them.

 

The contrarian argument is those of us that have skipped them. That said, I still fail to see the "problem". Just skip it. 

 

The base argument is that those of us that choose which to do, will log in to see what the offer is and we'll skip. But maybe they'll be checking the DQ and actually talk to people instead of logging off for two weeks or 6 months or whatever. 

 

I don't think skipping DQs is a negative. I'd love players to think a bit more. More importantly, I truly believe that what could be considered a "laughable" DQ today could be worthwhile at some point.

I have a pvp daily finally!  But the reward is 35 allegiance tokens.  Seriously? I'm starting to see why people have been complaining. Good thing I like hitting people.  :P

 

I fail from your post to see why you'd think people would complain. 

 

Heck, didn't you just prove that you are getting something for nothing? 

 

35 allegiance tokens for free because you "like hitting people". 

 

Personally, I think people are complaining because that's... well, I won't explain that. 

 

I have chosen NOT to do many of the DQs based on my personal game play. 

 

In this example (and apologies Cal for singling you out with this quote, but it was just soooo convenient), I've mostly concentrated on the PvP ones. 

 

Some have been for allegiance tokens which I take from your post, you don't care about. I don't really either. But there's a whole FS world out there.

 

Other PvP quests have been profitable... 3 to 4 (don't quite remember) successful "normal" PvP attacks in exchange for 100 current stam. 40 stam vs 100 gain... 60 stam up. A clear gain.

 

I've hit aquatic creatures for one because that's what they happened to be in my area. I've gained on the tile moves because I was anyway.

 

I've done some of the other quests just for doing them.

 

In a nutshell, if you think it's worth it, do it. If it happens to coincide with what you're doing anyway, hard to see a reason to complain.

 

I see DQs as a reason to log in. Worthwhile or not totally depends on the player. Is it in line with what they are already doing? Great, reward for free. If not... maybe max stam is close and one would overflow, in which case 1 gold would be a sufficient prize.

 

Again, I'm low on completion but have seen quite a few who have done every single one. 

 

A player logging in to make their personal decision, instead of waiting for their stam to max, seems good to me.

We should change diagonal movement to 1 stamina.

 

That would make it much harder to work out the shortest route between any two points on a map---something those without teleport have to do all the time during hunts (move to next realm, move to quest point ...) or when returning to ones own level-map.

 

This diagonal movement *only* affects walking DQs, and is very easily avoided (just click horizontal or vertical displacements and make a few more clicks). It really is much easier to learn to live with it.




#969830 Game Update 2.9 - Daily Quests!

Posted by BigGrim on 03 October 2016 - 12:01

Steps are only counted when Stamina is used (which, I think, is wrong)

 

Incorrect. Tiles are counted, not stamina. Lightfoot works fine with that particular Quest. Pretty sure this has been clarified a couple of times now. Rowbeth above has the right of it.




#969680 Game Update 2.9 - Daily Quests!

I'll put this question here just to prove that the arena DQs really are encouraging some people to explore the arena (and not just enterring naked for the DQ point).

 

What are "specials" in the arena lists?

 

Brices guide (which I found once I managed to work out how to reformat the forum link given in the resources->guides left margin menu) refers to "moves" rather than "specials" in this context, so I am guessing that this category has changed some time during the last two years.

#969624 In Game Character Page View Counter?

Posted by Morgwyn on 28 September 2016 - 09:41

I guess, you could counter the refreshing by checking who checked your profile page, so that your own views do not count.

Not sure if there would be anything against it as they have this system here on the forum aswel. On the forum profile you can even see who checked your profile. It can be nice, though what would the purpose be?




#969522 Quest?

Posted by BadPenny on 25 September 2016 - 23:03

To drive the point home... can anybody tell me why these Daily "Quests" are NOT contributing to my Adventurer medal? 
 
Yeah, tongue-in-cheek.... but not so much.


Cuz they have their very own handy dandy super duper double throw down medals.... I'll probably be a great great grandmother before I hit crystal, and one of my descendants will have to carry me to diamond. Think they can put that on my tombstone?


#969307 Frustration

I might be the only one at EOC who has no issues with the lack of new content... I never manage to get my stamina up enough to hunt anyway.
