I got impression that Bonus RP event is something meant to be done along any other activities, like questing or running dungeons. And it's completely fine. Basic idea is also fine: killing mobs around certain level to get those RP. Recent changes made in game however require so this event evolve. Companion tokens, mount tokens, insignia powder. All of that is now more of less required for upgrading our effectiveness while playing, not only RP. Be it upgrading companions or mounts for bolster or upgrading insignia or collars. While insignia and collars upgrades are really costly on higher level I heard many people tried to give ideas as to how make it more accessible. Well, here is one of those.
Currently that event has a pool of extra 100000 RP to be gained. It also has 4 milestones rewards:
1st, at 25000 RP gained: 2500 RP and 1 pres ward (btc)
2nd, at 50000 RP gained: 5000 RP and 1 pres ward (btc)
3rd, at 75000 RP gained: 7500 RP and 1 pres ward (btc)
4th, at 100000 RP gained: 10000 RP and 2 pres wards (btc)
Let me state that this alone does not make event worth running if really invested into it. Normally it comes with x2 Refining Stones event, so that helps too, but not that much. RP gained is nice, pres wards too (even if bound to character, which should change to be bound to account). I propose one of two things:
1) Make milestones rewards better. For every milestone add some extra rewards. That's easier approach. Here is an example:
1st milestone, at 25000 RP gained: 2500RP, 3 pres wards (bta), 15 comp&mount tokens, 100 insignia powder, 1 shard of greater empowerment (bta)
2nd milestone, at 50000 RP gained: 5000RP, 3 pres wards (bta), 30 comp&mount tokens, 200 insignia powder 1 shard of greater empowerment (bta)
3rd milestone, at 75000 RP gained: 7500RP, 4pres wards (bta), 45 comp&mount tokens, 300 insignia powder 1 shard of greater empowerment (bta)
4th milestone, at 100000 RP gained: 10000RP, 5 pres wards (bta), 60 comp&mount tokens, 400 insignia powder 2 shard of greater empowerment (bta)
Total of 15 wards (all bta), 150 comp&mount tokens, 1000 insignia powder and 5 shard of greater empowerment (all bta) per character sounds rather tempting to farm. I imagine that boosters sold at Wanderous Bazaar would finally be worth AD to get, making it better AD sink. Those boosters could be also made more expensive, but let them work for whole account when buying just once per event.
Of course, values could change, but basic idea is the same.
2) Make whole event drop extra rewards. Every time we kill enemy we can gain not only RP, but comp&mount tokens and insignia powder too. Pool for RP is 100000, so it would require adding extra pools for tokens/powder. For example: 150 tokens (both types), 1000 insignia powder. That's more difficult approach, as dungeon chests also provide RP during event and adjusting that alone will take extra time that might be used on something else.
What do you think?
