Wish List Improvements to A.R.C Faction dailies

Currently only 3 dailies are doable.

1. Old Paneleon.
2. Mutated Dire Weed.
3. Devastator Sea Wraith.


The remaining two only spawns after certain amount of killed creatures which makes it far too expensive for a daily unless it gives more than one badge.

I suggest you guys make new dailies for the next PP Vu.

1. Remove old paneleon - add Weak paneleon - Kill 58 reward 1 badge. (This is the cost of killing 6 old paneleon) but you can make it lower if you guys want - The point is to allow a mission for newbies to do.

2. Same as now.

3. Kill 12 mutant Jellyworm - reward 1 badge.

4. Replace Devastator Sea Wraith with Mature Tide Claw same amount of kills/reward.

5. Replace Hunter Zyn'Dos with Watcher Zyn'dos - Kill 7 - reward 1 badge.

6. Replace Merfolken Raider with Merfolken Gatherer - Kill 10 - reward 1 badge.

7. Bonus mission - low chance to get it. Kill 100 crystal pede - reward 5 badges.

Any other suggestions are of course welcome and the numbers/mobs are not set in stone.

 

I myself would leave the 3 dailes as they are but increase the spawn rate/area of the old paneleons as it gets crowded easily and add another sea wraith spawn or increase the Devastator Spawn on the ice isles.

The Zyn'Dos, i'd recommend an higher lvl, Maybe the strong or Devastator, and Merfolken Spearmen, the gatherers are nothing in comparason. But i'd be happier if the Hunters/Raiders had a dedicated spawn.

too many dailies would make the 200 badges too easy to obtain, its meant to be a challenge and considering 6 rhino beetles is only 4 tokens.....

 

As the armor everyone's after is a typical "miner armor" (low tt, all-around protection), it would totally make sense for some badges to be available through mining.
There is no shortage of mining iron challenges in the known universe but to my knowledge the are no "trophy cabinet" type missions. Hence my suggestion:

Find at least one claim of each of these 10 minerals:

• Zorn Star Ore
• Kaisenite Stone
• Iridium Ore
• Olerin Stone
• Nosifer Stone
• Yellow Crystal
• Blue Crystal
• Green Crystal
• Orange Crystal
• Purple Crystal

Reward: 2 badges (or maybe more, this takes a few hours to complete because of flying all over the planet )

 

A few hours? Not if you know where to fly Rat ::wink::

 

I do, but not everyone does. With good knowledge of areas one can probably turn around in 30...40 minutes, which is still more than amount of time needed to finish a hunting daily.

Bringing time into discussion was my mistake anyway, as mission rewards are typically set according to PED cycled, not time spent. Completing the above list would on average require one to cycle 25...30 PED with a non-rookie finder. which is again about twice as much as needed to kill 12 mutated.

 

I was pulling your leg a bit rat. To be honest, it' still good to know where the 'other' spots are as well for your minerals. What happens when your sweet spot was just visited ten minutes prior by me? You find nothing, now need to look elsewhere or wait hours. As you said get to know where everything is hiding at, this way when one area seems dry, you go elsewhere to get what you need.

No No No!
ARC Faction has to be even harder!
Reducing its severity will be disrespectful to all the players busted and currently busting their a**es to get to the ARC vendor.
How cool this armor would be if every noob can wear it?

So Cyrene team please make those missions even harder

 

I have 164 badges atm. So to me it wouldn't matter if they made it harder or easier. But it aint fair atm since no mission for true noobs.

 

would it make sense to have something similar, but that is for noob level? maybe limit it to disciples?

 

I don't think the terminals would tell the difference between disciples or not, maybe a arc faction rookie level could be made, more basic armor but missions involving jelly worms and pedes

 

Or keep the missions where they currently are, but add new stuff, some harder, some easier or whatever. Give the noobs something easier, and the merchant opens up at say 100 badges instead of 200 and offers some lesser stuff than what will be available at 200. This way those who busted their asses don't get it shoved up their ass. ... on a tangent, this is the one thing that really angered me with Everquest, you would bust your ass for some uber armor or something, only to find it basically being given out or way obsoleted next VU, now everyone can get it for a song. Given this is a real cash game, doing that would SEVERELY upset folks since it's money involved now. Add new stuff but don't mess with old stuff, especially since many folks have invested significant time AND money into obtaining it.

I would suggest a daily a.r.c. mission for purslane weeds. This would keep the spawn down at pict's pollen mission.

 

I would say if don't want / can't make armor tradable, make it at least tt(able) like ark did after few VUs. Not a big deal giving TT value of the set, but the whole notion of complete souldbound item in RCE may put lot of ppl away..

 

On a second thought, you probably shouldn't spend all the good ideas on A.R.C. faction, as that would make Turrelion and Imperium extremely sad...

 

Watch it here. Since you stated (in a sort of way that many are kind of creating themselves here on the forum) that the new server was to be added as a temp server for the starting area so that the factions can open up the other three servers again..then that would mean that this new server area is the noob faction area..

 

if possible the turrelion should involve mining and treasure hunting. They look like the kind of race that would enjoy some digging

 

Any response on an NPC that will purchase our armor from us? That is how Arkadia got around the non ttable armor.

 

Turrelions are a race of warriors. They only dig holes for Duster graves
