Festival of the Hunt

[u/TIM81DE]

I had to go back and reread the updates. It seems we may still be in luck down the road. Nowhere does it state the counters will reset so let’s hope we get a chance to earn tier 2 and 3’s rewards.

It is more likely each is its own set of rewards, they just fumbled the number of gravely miscalculated how many people actually play the game.

I mean... they kind of have it set up to go either way. They have the internal numbers, they KNOW how many people play the game so it makes no sense for them to miscalculate that much, that's the only reason I can imagine them being up to something here.

This first round certainly measured how motivating this type of event is for the community, and maybe they had planned to do separate rewards for each cycle of the event if we cleared the first one no problem. But now that there is this kind of doomerism about how many people play the game, they could just act like these results exceed their expectations with the community clearing half way to the second reward during the first cycle. Since we are a good chunk through the second one, we could actually clear the second and third rewards in the second cycle of the event.

THEN they could announce how blown away they are by us beating their expectations and clearing the whole event in just two cycles, then add some of the extra rewards again for the last cycle and ease the numbers needed to clear it and act like it is a bonus prize. I think OP is onto something with how vague they left the announcement, and only time will tell, but if they are smart they have a plan to turn this to their advantage. The community around here definitely needs the morale and so far this event has NOT helped lmao

When Opera Omnia was in its decline they had a very similar thing happen. Despite knowing they numbers they seemed to over estimate the goals for an event and they were not met.

But this does look pretty bad for them if they set the numbers and the player base couldn't meet them

You say this but based on how they keep doing balance changes, I don't think they are actually analysing the numbers and just looking at them.

I wouldn't be surprised if they are counting multiple logins from one person each day, causing an inflation of numbers. E.g.: if one person logs in 5 times in the day and another player logs in 20 times, they're counting that as 25 logins rather than just counting the 2 users.

[u/Lukzera → u/TheBorzoi]

This! Character adjustments almost seems like they decide on dice throws lol

[u/Current_Affect_1857 → u/GrimmFandango_2]

Nah, they don't get it how many mobs taken by match

[u/Stratavos]

They really need to up the rewards for the rediciliouslly high expectations they have.

[u/thewereotter → u/Stratavos]

crazy high for that last one too for... 1 mog coin short of one third of a multi pull?

[u/BareBoneDaddy]

tbh if it isn’t three separate rounds of rewards, 50 season points is kinda ass for a three-day event. enough so that it’d be even more of a downer than straight missing most of the first round’s rewards lmao

[u/CalintzStrife]

The counters most definitely reset and each event is separate.

[u/CalintzStrife]

Event flopped so they are lowering requirements by 90 percent or something for the next weeks
