Runes of Magic US / AU

No more token cost games please >.< Already takes 150 tokens a day to do all mini's...and you only get 100 from dailies -_-

I think he wants Tempest Heights to replace minigames.

Imo, I still prefer if they fixed the whole system so the main way to progress gear is run instances. It just doesn't make sense for the main way to progress being boring minigames...

Let's fix some of the current minigames we have to scale a bit better with level instead of adding new ones. They did a great job with Goblins, what about Survival, Course of Terror? Same with the "I want to Survive" and "Call of the Horns" minigames from the Drill Grounds. While I understand they're mini-games and not supposed to be hugely challenging, having some element of challenge would be nice.

Same with gear drops from the packs you get from Siege War. they're stuck on Level 50. Why not beef them up with level 70+ gear, or make them scale with your current class level. Open a package when you're level 80, you get level 80 gear. Open them when you're 40, you get level 40 gear. Have a chance of pulling two good green stats or one decent yellow one from the gear instead of one crappy one (having a small chance to pull a bag stat, anyone?).

Let's not add new minigames. As Cammo mentioned, there are so many it's time consuming and prohibitively expensive to run them all. We just got a new one with the Snowflake festival, if you didn't notice anyway, go run that one for a while.

Imo, the whole system relies too much on minigames for gear. Minigames aren't fun to farm everyday for a year, period. Even if you change them to scale to level, they still aren't fun to farm everyday for a year. I'd prefer if they changed instances so that minigames are done for a filler stat when you need one; the fastest way to progress gear should still be to run instances.


And if you didn't have to farm minigames EVERYDAY out of necessicity for gearing, they might actually be fun...

Anyone else notice that we have 1 thread currently running about making the game easier on new players and this thread's comments are about making it harder on new players. Without mini games new players gear much much slower as only 1 or 2 guilds on most servers can clear endgame instances. Mini games provide decent gear but it is not as good as instance gear. I see no reason to change the way things are.

Farming minigames is not fun, and is one of the reasons that makes gearing such a boring, tedious task. Minigames should be left the way they are now, but make easy/normal mode drops better so that instances become the main focus for gearing, and minigames will fade back and become supplementary for filler stats.

I agree and disagree with your suggestion. I still like the idea of "shell gear" I do not use it but there are many people that need too. Shell gear may not be fun to get since mini games are boring but it does provide free to play players with a inexpensive way of getting good gear that can all come OD. They can use this gear to raid in HM groups to then get the "best" gear.

Which is why I suggested to leave shell gear/farming minigames untouched. It will still be available, as it is now, but gearing via running instances will be made more tempting.
