Finally :open_mouth:
-looks at rewards- Mysterious Chips/Socket Stones -_-

I really hope the odds for good rewards have been increased significantly. I hope PWI is aware everyone just logs 10 chars to solo BH these days, I really want BH to be a team thing, but the rewards would have to be better than just doing 10 old BHs by yourself. Is there any good news on this topic?

New BH/UPD are all really cool ideas, but the way the game is played (yes sorry, everyone logs 10 chars to solo(/or duo) this stuff) its way better to just do the old BH/regular UP. Please make the new bounty hunter worthwhile /o/ I wanna get rid of this **** solo with 10 alts nonsense. :( (then again we can prolly solo the instances for the new BH too v_v RIP MMO aspect)

    Well Dawnlight Hall is definitely team instance from what I have seen in the videos. It might not be as difficult as I might want but meh. QSM I imagine to be too annoying to solo for most ppl. UP is most likely in the list for the new BH and other than that, it prolly has the easy JFSP in there too. Dunno really what else they would throw in it, unless they make us do full warsong for last boss.

    As long as its worth doing more than soloing 10 original BHs Ill be happy, looking at the rewards they listed it doesn't look like it will be tho. I know ''in a perfect world (kek)'' people would do it and make squads together to do it. But in reality everyone with strong chars will just solo an instance with 9 of their own characters, and everyone will just continue playing the game solo. :(

    Eh as a ten mill big note as a possible reward I know the second an easy BH is up I'm logging my 10 + alts to farm easy 100mill profit if I'm lucky XD.

    Hm. Could we pick up the regular BH and the new BH at the same time? If yes people can solo their BHs and then attempt the new ones on the side, I guess.

    No, you have to pick one or the other.

    Humm, To get trully more random teams, Not just Duos and Alt runs, One would think that using the systems team matching feature for looking for squads would need to be enforced. Making certain entries a qued system. Yeah, u might not get that PERFECT squad, But that makes it more Random and at times much more challenging!!. Some people might like a real challenge, not the same ole same quick farm with alts routine....A Trully good player should welcome adversity. and diversity~.

    Maybe Quicksand Maze is useless, cuz all that matters to most is TW XTW ect ect...Not sure if its cuz the Game or The Community... Seems to be there is no Middle of the game out there for players...Just Farm, Farm, Farm and hope u get into that Uber Guild and Win Win Events..

    I've never done QSM, UP, or UCH because I could never convince my friends to want to try them. They all stopped playing long ago. With the new BH though I bet there will be more of an interest in random people trying them. And of course of the top 1% shunning all others from learning them, and then no one doing the new BH because its not worth the trouble for a 95% chance at getting **** like chips and socket stones.

    Just take the damn bh out of the game, The rewards are so cut back that they just arent worth it anymore. While you're at it take Lucidsilver and quests like that with it. We already know were going to get a turtle an esoterica or a fruit bag.

    QSM is useful to get mats to upgrade the gear you get from Morai orders. You can get the mats from the chest in EU too, but don't think you get as many as you would from a QSM run.

    Danlight Halls will need team effort. You could maybe attempt it alone but you wouldn't get very far. I've tried it once on test didn't work out that well.

    A full list of rewards for the BH will go out on launch so you'll know what the potential prizes are!

    Lucidsilver and Gold agents were created a long time for lower level players and are version exclusive to us. While I haven't seen it myself, there is a chance to get a Scroll of Tome out of the Lucidgold Chests http://www.pwdatabase.com/pwi/quest/26121 but it's ridiculously low. I wish we could update the quests and the items attached to it, but they might not be able to touch them at this point.

    I actually got surprised the other day by getting luck tokens from lucidgold, usually get either fruit bags or all class pets that everyone probably has by now.

    ok Concerning the Gold pack it's very easy to collect and you don't need to do anything more than take the quest then run off else where until the timer is done.

    So Far I have gotten Plat. HP and Plat. Mana charms, Faction signets, Squad signets, Perfect tokens of Luck, Swift Talisman (timed fly), all the timed fashions the bacon and turtle (soup), the exp fruits (very nice to get before rb even for an alt (i.e. rbed with 300 of them on my chars to get a little boost) and the Training Esoterica.

    All of theses I have gotten several times since I started taking this bk in 2013.

    I have also met people that have gotten the Eye of jungle and the SoT (the SoT person was only visiting the server and was only on the Morai server a month or two before going bk to their old server due to timezone).

    It's a personal choice, and to be honest I mostly just take it now when in the area when they are turned on xD

    The only challenge now (if you wanted it) will be the new instance. I'm not sure about PWCN but 100+ QSM can already be duo'd as I know of BMs and Barbs who can pull masses of mobs to the boss as they know the routes. Just a couple AOEs and all is dead. Ofc you need more for the bosses but a whole run can be done in around 30mins.

    UP is now even faster than QSM. If you get a spark kill squad you can easily do a whole run in about 15 - 20mins.

    UCH (Blue Portal) is soloable. On the dragons you only need an alt geared enough who can enter and aggro a dragon while you kill the other so they do not reset.

    As per the rewards, I haven't done a BH in over a year. I will help fill a spot if they need a tank for JFSP etc but BHs just aren't worth the rewards so I do not pick them up. Coin is a good reward but I found myself going weeks with just chips and sockets which I, among many others, have no use for. BH is just an obsolete aspect of the game for me personally. The removal of price from Mirage Stones made doing a BH even less rewarding.

    I actually remember hearing about someone on old Archosaur getting SoT from Gold Chest like 5/6 yrs ago.

    Yea if bh rewards got reworked and were actually usefull (other than low chance to get money) it would be worth doing it , if 'new' bh rewards are same old just with added really low % to get 10mil it wont be worth doing at all xD
