Hello,

I have just completed a task and earn the rank 3 result (specifically a footman) but the corresponding task slot has not been unlocked. Is there any problem? Have i made something wrong?

Than you in advance.

    That is not the kind of rank 3 result you need. You need to complete a task which has multiple quality levels of possible output and achieve the highest (rank 3) result. This will require greater than +100% to the quality, which in turn will require multiple blue and purple tools.

    Or at least that's how it works for everything *but* leadership. I'm not aware of any leadership tasks with result quality outputs.

    Same thing just happened to me. Been working for a couple weeks specifically to get a "rank 3" footman using the level 13 leadership TASK "Train a footman". The only goal in doing all of that was to open up the additional task slot that needed a "rank 3" result. Lots of resources and juggling time wasted for no payoff.

    PW Developers/Admins,

    Possible solutions you could implement to avoid confusing, disappointing, and frustration your players:

    Option 1 *Probably simplest and preferred method due to it's clarity and ease of implementation*: Change the wording of the extra task slot to "Complete a task and earn a rank 3 item. Note: 'Assets' such as a leadership footman do not count as a rank 3 item."

    Option 2: Don't call the result of the "train a footman" level 13 TASK a Footman "rank 3" if it isn't a "rank 3 result". Use some other "rank" system for the leadership assets. Perhaps use Low Quality Asset, Medium Quality Asset, High Quality Asset. I still prefer option 1.

    Option 3: Since "rank" is a term used to describe military leadership, it makes sense that the "rank" term be used for leadership assets such as the footman. Use another term to call ranked items (maybe "quality level") and update rank 3 task slot to read "Complete a task and earn a item with a quality level of 3.".

    Well don't feel so bad, I just tried to unlock "earn rank 3 result" with my leadership.
    I bought 4 adventures and trained them to be a hero, since a hero is a Rank 3 person and purple I thought for sure that was how to open it.
    But after 18 hours my hero was trained but no "rank 3 result spot opened :(
    So at least I have a hero ! But I would have saved the adventures for assistants spots to help out with tasks so the time would go faster if I knew that the rank 3 result wasn't going to open.
    oh well
