With the increases in the XP on challenges and some more…strategic applications of time management on challenges, you still have plenty of time.

I would focus my attention only on the rare and legendary challenges and leave the common and uncommon to just sit there and die their sad and pathetic excuses of XP. You get 5 10X mulipliers a day. Legendary is 150 XP normal and rare is 75. The 10X multiplier fills up the 4 cards visible and the remaining sit ready to fill a slot. Get the rare and legendary tasks done only. If you run out of those, you can do 3 re-rolls a day to see if you get the slot or not. DO NOT DO other challenges. The multipliers carry over to the next day so that you can try again the next day.

From what I understand (haven’t confirmed but trust the dets) is that the XP is now 5x so that 750 for legendary and 375 for rares. With 10X multipliers you get 7500 XP (seven level jumps) and 3750 (3 level jumps). With about 10 minutes of work in admin a day, you can be done with the BP in less than a week.

I can verify this. I jumped from around level 15 to 60 in two days. I even included some uncommon tasks just because they were nearby. I haven’t bought the Battle Pass because I’m still not sure there’s enough value in the rewards.

Smh kids these days, back in my day we disliked the dlc and missed not having content

There’s always some new thing to hate on, the cycle never ends.

Yes, this one agrees, very unfortunate.
But this is the decision Tenc- er, Funcom has made.
There was some noise about bringing different versions of similar items to the Bazaar if there is demand. As the items are “purely cosmetic”, how that is going to work is very curious. Perhaps same shape but with ugly colours?
Or same outfit but missing the elephant tusks?
Who knows…

However, if you are on PC, there are mods for as an option.
On console… well… make due with what is. There were several items added that may be useful. The Alchemy decorations are very nice and can be learned on Siptah and Exiled Lands. Likewise smithing decorations, but those are perhaps less utile for most magic castles.

Radium lights can have dye added to create mood lighting, and can be hidden behind walls, ect, to filter the light.

But this wasn’t a thread soliciting building tips…

This one likewise despises Battle Pass systems. But our choices are basically ignore it or die mad.
Is the game worth the stress?
If not, remove it and move on.
If yes, have fun raging.
But keep in mind, only post here for fun. The joy of raging and trolling and internet slap fighting is really the only reason to post anything critical of corporate policies on this forum.

Unnecessary and absurd. These things are part of the game and don’t replace DLC, and certainly aren’t worth comparing to “free” content.
Asking 10€ for 1 skin in the Bazaar is extreme insanity and the whole BP is also ridiculous. But FOMO Bazaar is the worst thing LOLcom has come up with…

I think the BP is absolutely ok, the price is fair, the Stuff is good for 10bucks. I know BP that are really worse.

So please explain why do u think the BP is ridiculous? ◕⁠‿⁠◕

For those of us that do not want to spend the time grinding out the tasks, which can become quite tedious (even when in Admin/God mode to spawn all creatures and teleport everywhere).

I have purchased every DLC and all of the items from the Bazaar as they appear. I purchased 2 battle passes (one for my main account and one for my ALT account).

Spending money is not the issue. It is the time. I am not saying to remove BattlePass. I am suggesting just offer players that do not want to (or have the time) to do all of the quests to purchase all BattlePass items up front for one cost. This would appease both preferences of game play.

Btw - It was way more than $10.00 to buy everything in the Bazaar and BattlePass.

You didn’t understand the question, I’m not talking about the bazaar, only about the BP.
The BP costs only 10 bucks.

I was only talking about the BP, I played 5 days and had everything from the BP without admin or god mode.
Because I basically only play on official servers.

So that’s really a lame excuse that it would be grinding.

In Diablo and WoW you do hard grinding for stuff, but I don’t want to compare these game concepts here either.

36

BAZAAR and pricing - thats the issue, not the BP.

37

You do realize this entire game is a survival game though, right? You never built a T3 base on 1x rates before? The game is about grinding, what’s a little extra side grind for cosmetics? I enjoyed doing my challenges, I treated them a side quests, not chores.

if you only buy 10 bucks worth of CC. If you spend more $ on CC, you get more coin for your buck and the BP is cheaper. It’s under $8 if you get $50 of CC.

Has anyone looked at the pricing with the 7800cc/$50 conversion? I keep seeing ‘its n ot worth it’ with the 1200/$10 conversion but always with the caveat that they bought every DLC yada yada yada…so a loyal customer of FC shouldn’t see an issue of upfronting $50 to get the maximum yield for dollar spent, right?

At the best value conversion rate you get the following
A 500 CC armor set is $3.20. and a 250 CC banner would be $1.60.
an 800CC item/set would be $5.13.

So I guess my biggest question here is what precisely would you pay for a set of armor or a neat decorative placeable or a set of building pieces? Everyone is saying they would pay more but I haven’t seen an actual price point anyone is willing to throw down for these items. The DLC bundles of old are gone and probably best for the business since stores get discounts and you can land some of them @ 50% .

At the $50 investment costs, these items are dirt cheap compared to PUBG, Fortnite, CRSED, Bloodhunt etc.

Totally agree. I thought about bringing this up yesterday but knew it was going to be more trouble than not and I’m still recovering from my sickness so thank you for pointing it out. With the current rates of XP, this is “grind” in name only.

I do like the fact they did the boost. It’s a shame that the BP hasn’t done so well because there are cool things in it. The wight horse is just cool factor extreme…like a necro pimp my ride sort of thing.

DUH! I did not know that! I have been playing since EA and I fully know about the grind on 1x servers as I admin them. We are not talking about grinding to build something, but grinding to get an item that we paid for so now the payment is not just monetary, but also in time, which not everyone has the time to do.

Out of everyone in my clan, I am the one that spends the most time grinding to build T3 buildings.

Yes. They can be viewed as side quests, but when you pay for something and then have to work on top of that it quickly becomes a chore.
