Tiamat Horde Reclamation

So, about Tiamat Hoard Reclamation. I'm sure most of you remember when in first two days we could hit II Hoard Deffender (I'll call it tier 2, for easier understanding), but nowadays I didn't see we get higher than tier 1.

What I propose is that we agree on international times and donate to Tiamat Horde Reclamation twice a day, as I think that is the only way that we can get to tier 3 or tier 4.

About times, I was thinking that majority of Neverwinter players are from Europe and North America, but we can't forget about other players over the world, but if spaced correctly I think that every player can get 1 run daily.

I propose 21:00 to 22:00 UTC and 11:00 to 12:00 UTC. But these times are subject to change, that is why I'll put in poll voting.

    I think it's a good idea to try an organise a time to contribute. Of course it doesn't change the fact that progression is just too low and needs a buff, but it might be a way to get something out of it. As for me I'm all over the place :P

    I hope the system will adjusted properly but i think it can't hurt to organize to get at least to Tier 2 or even Tier 3. (I mean we are talking about the chance to get an unbound artifact offhand).

    It'll take a lot more than some vague "a chance of earning 'x'" before I bother contributing to Tiamat's Hoard. Follow Diablo 2's example with Stones of Jordan/Uber-Diablo fight. Give guaranteed drops and THEN I'll donate.

    Heck, I'd like to see them do something like a Campaign System for this. You have a Personal Donation Record that determines your Tier that you can gradually build up to the highest Tier over however many Days/Weeks/Months/Years it takes you.

    'Wen considered the nature of time and understood that the universe is, instant by instant, recreated anew. Therefore, he understood, there is in truth no past, only a memory of the past. Blink your eyes, and the world you see next did not exist when you closed them. Therefore, he said, the only appropriate state of the mind is surprise. The only appropriate state of the heart is joy. The sky you see now, you have never seen before. The perfect moment is now. Be glad of it.' Terry Pratchet The Thief Of Time

    Seems to be a pretty high chance of getting it if it's actually achieved. Someone I know got 2 off hands.

    This is a valiant effort but I think the system needs to drastically change before most people will contribute.

    I like the idea of having a weekly reset but I don't truly see that happening.

    Somebody also suggested privately to make it an individual achievement.

    At the very least, though, the cost for higher tiers needs to be reduced and/or the value of contributions needs to be increased.

    It just isn't worth it atm. :(

    Could we make a Day-Pole out of this?
    If we decide one time-frame the rest of the community that is scattered around the world is most likely excluded.

    I think it should accumulate up to 100% then it goes back to 0% and we have to refill it continuously or they should add an Event in which for 1 hour the contribution will be doubled, people will prefer to contribute during that event and we will be able to get to T4 finally. Today we tried a massive donation and it was barely T2.

    I can make it a day poll. But lets see how we get voted on times then I'll post a day pole, from Monday to Sunday.

    "Thursday is Tiamat Horde Dump Day" or something. You get people from all time zones so picking a TIME doesn't work as well as picking a DAY. Have all the guild dump into the Horde on a day, or all your buddies, or whatever.

    Totally agree BUT if a whole day is picked then that means donating all day long so that all player have the highest Tier (IV) every given hour in order to have a chance on all they need. Is that possible you think? Because i don't think it is.

    Also the point of making it an individual achievement even though is sounds great means we loose the whole point of people server wise uniting and guilds working together to banish Tiamat in my opinion.

    I didn't vote as I also feel this should be a weekly contribution and mechanically adjusted accordingly. At the very least, it should be a daily contribution.

    Closing this necromantically raised thread. The current issue with turning in to complete the weekly is being looked into. No need to raise the dead over it. Instead, please use a living thread, such as: Tiamat Reclaiming the Horde quest issues. Thanks!
