Hi every one, My friend messaged me on facebook saying he wasn't able to do NW any more so I thought I would come on and leave a post for him since he's a shy guy. I was thinking we should have an alternative way to getting supply tokens because some people that I know have anxiety issues and even with medication some times it gets out of hand. I was thinking we should be able to do an alternative way to get them since my friend won't be able to upgrade his gear if he can't do NW. Don't even bother suggesting get some one to farm them because you need the supply tokens in the first place to upgrade the bound gears in general or to account share cause that's not acceptable. I know I my self am not in game any more but I still do try to help my friends where I can. Please leave any ideas if you have any because I am sure there are others out there with this problem (hopefully) and I am sure they would like to hear/give alternative ways to getting the supply tokens because not every one is able to PK like others and those that don't have the confidence to pk/do NW will be happy as well and more than just that way to obtain the supply tokens. If there are other ways to get the supply tokens than this way people won't have to wait for 2 days when there are people who work during NW and will never be able to upgrade their gear and also it will give people some thing else to do instead of walking around in circles in Archosaur. If any one has any comments please list below and thank you every one for your time. Miss you guys. Tebi b:cute b:kiss

    Sorry after reading this im not going to Log.

    I feel that tho NW is at the wrong time for some people, Tokens are still sold off in some format. If it be to Cannys or raps. In the case you can buy them off other players.

    I really do understand the NW problem but at this point in time we just have to go with it. Im hoping that they will never put anything into the game again like this.

    Thanks,

    Hello, what if we get some supply tokens from doing BHs and some daily quests? I do understand some people do not feel comfortable with PK especially since they feel under geared. If you have a medical condition than you should be able to buy them from the GMs because that is not right. If you have a medical condition/bad time of the day for NW (like if you're at work or asleep) than it is not fair because people do have real life stuff like work or they need their sleep. As for the medical condition it should only be right to either make the supply tokens trade able or allow people to purchase them using their money they drop. An example would be like 1 zen=1 supply token or some thing along that line. They would contact the GMs via ticket. Or another idea is to have them as quest rewards from doing "vile" versions of bosses from Lunar and Warsong.

    Soon to be implemented in the game.

    From what I saw and seem to believe, Primal Quest(mini quests not daily's) will give supply tokens as rewards soon.

    That's if the devs think it's appropriate for the PWi servers

    Is there any new info about possible time change for NW?

    W/e that issue was broth up in the past, answers were..."we will see into it, we will try something in the future....".

    So.. will that ever change? ... or no one cares?

    The only things you absolutely need to farm supply tokens for are things you'll only really need if you pvp. Cube neck/ring/tome/etc. upgrades are really only needed for pvp. So if you don't pvp, why would you need them?

    There's a reason why they don't put alternative ways to farm supply tokens and why they probably never will, tbh. It's because if they do, they effectively ruin any reason for running NW and lose out on people spending money for charms and the like.

    As for a time change, as much as I'd like them to switch one of the timeslots to make it better for the Europeans, it likely won't happen at this point.

    2 hours earlier NW time will be more convenient for EU players and wont hurt so much USA players, or Sunday NW can start at 4pm. Its Sunday and most people can play that time in USA and it will be very convenient time for EU players who works on Monday.

    Ofc it wont be good for everyone, but would be better for more people then now.

    Sunday NW would have to start at 5pm due to possible TWs.

    The reason why I posted this is because with the upgrade it also affects PvE as well not just PvP and with PvE it will be much easier. By having alternative ways as commented before than this way even PvE people can have decent good gear. Not every server/moment in the game is based off of PvP. Also it will help those that PvP get their tokens quicker as well when you think about it. You're really not losing any thing. You're just gaining and achieving your dream gear just that much closer. You cannot really lose with having an alternative way. It may take a bit longer but it will be some what achievable.

    To sum up the things I saw here :

    - Get an alternative to NW because NW is "PvP":
    I don't really see the need for this. Anyone can get points in NW rather easily. You don't have to be R9.3 +10 and everything. If you just put a 70s barb in TT70, with the buff for low lvl, you can get decent tokens. If you're not well geared, either go with a group, hop in and out or go to battles your nation is already in advantage with numbers. After all, if you don't like NW, you only have to farm the pure token part of items. Which isn't much.

    - Get an alternative to NW because it's time based:
    It will either be insignificant or make NW rewards useless. I don't like this idea. Killing an instance over something new has been done way to often.

    - Make NW more accessible with different times:
    This would go against the logic of spread servers. I'd rather see the posibility of players being able to transfer servers with a limited frequency, so they can go to a server matching their times better and change if their scedule changes real life. This would benefit for all events.
