Doesn't matter, because the bottomline is people want to log in to the game and feel like they're having fun by getting a HIGH reward, not a miserable feeling grind.

You ever watch that show Deadliest Catch? The whole crew lights up when they're on their fishing and pulling in big numbers, and the whole crew is miserable when they're not on the crab and grinding on one or two for pot. That's human psychology that very few people can simply shirk and not care about. Grinds aren't fun, and Falken should be reverted to the feeling of an abundant reward if they want the WiK to be fun for the long term.

I don't care is falkin keeps his junk reward, just give more ways of getting supplies. For example, give supplies for vanquishing peacekeeper areas of kryta. Give something like 1 supply for 10 mobs. And think of synergy with the bounties, vanquish the zone plus the bonus for killing the boss.

Well Peacekeepers already drop Confessor Orders which you can trade in for Supplies already.

Yeah but what I mean is not doing a quest, won't force Anet to do anything. It's like saying I don't want to do Villany of Galrath, so now Anet must change it cause I'm not going to do the quest until I get something better.

And I don't remember GvG that much cause I'm a PvE Carebear.

There's never enough population to actually do DoA around, and the UW clears are so scripted I can't take it. So yeah people want good rewards for doing their own thing, suck on it.

aspi · May 30, 2010, 05:38 PM // 17:38

good rewards for doing nothing special at all. The lazy generation.

Fay Vert · May 30, 2010, 05:58 PM // 17:58

It would help if the exchange rate for royal gifts wasn't so high. 15:1 is pretty bad for what they give meaning you can do this content every day and get less than 1 gift per day. They are probably thinking this is similar to Nick's limit of 5 per week but the effort for this sucks.

Trader of Secrets · May 30, 2010, 06:45 PM // 18:45

Yeah watssup with these rewards, on the day of the balance they were pretty good. Now just back to nothing

jonathan23 · May 30, 2010, 07:41 PM // 19:41

I think rebalance was meant to refer to bringing the courier reward down to match these 3+1 bounties, meaning the 3+1 thing is normal. I personally was/am fine with a 10+5 reward for any but the hardest bounties. You do it on a few characters and supplement this with a few courier runs and get a few gifts per day. But yeah, the point is that you have to do the bounty on 5 different characters to get one gift or on 7 different characters to get one medal per day. This is very disheartening to me and hope that the bounties will be re-rebalanced soon, or people gonna start goin AWOL on Salma.

Sir Baddock · May 30, 2010, 09:16 PM // 21:16

Peacekeepers are easy, quit crying and just add it to the other 4 quests / "Dailies" you do.

Shadowspawn X · May 30, 2010, 09:29 PM // 21:29

War supplies are insanely easy to get, so you can't expect anything spectacular from the gifts or the medals. They are just too common, medals will pile up at triple the rate zcoins ever did.

R_Frost · May 30, 2010, 10:23 PM // 22:23

boohoo, if you dont like it dont do it. Anet didnt have to add the war in kryta stuff to the game. they could of chosen to fix other more important issues that still need to be done. the rewards for vanquishing still suck, yet everyone still does it. the rewards for the z-missions can be considered out of balance on a bunch of them yet people still do them. i would of rather seen the WiK stuff added in like the bonus missions, yet it wasnt. this is free add-on stuff we got, Anet could of charged us $9.99 or $19.99 for a whole mini expansion pack that would of had everything in it that ties GW1 to GW2 yet they chose to give this to us for free and add it in slowly over time. enjoy the free add on content, stop bitching and if you dont like it then uninstall and go away.

From the Update:
Rebalanced the rewards for escorting Courier Falken.
Rebalanced the rewards for completing Wanted by the Shining Blade quests.

Reading comprehension ftw. The rebalance is for both events, not just one. This is not a qq thread, this is a thread asking if this is a bug or not because the notes appear to not match what actually is going on ingame. The "stop qq'ing" trolls need to stfu and realize if anything this is a bug report thread if anything because of the discrepancy. Either the notes were incorrect or this is a bug.

Now that you brought it up, they should also look into the vanquishing reward balance and ZQ reward balance as well. (And dungeon reward balance).

All of the people with the "stop qq'ing" replies....
This has nothing to do with the COST of the game. so your "this is free, like it or go away" isnt going to solve anything.
That said, the problem is that the update says we were supposed to see a "balance" to them..and most people, myself included, would like a lil clarification as to what that was supposed to be since nothing has changed. As far as we know the Inquisitors were planned to be introduced then and even if they werent, its not exactly a "balance".
This is a problem of communication, not entitlement.

completely agree. Price or value has nothing to do with how anet gives us updates on new updates.. its the fact that they also give us updates that screw the previously enjoyed fun...

and of course the communication too... misunderstanding about balance? I'm questioning it too.

I disagree. Broken Falken flooded the market with war supplies and consequently MoH as well, which means the war supplies were seriously devalued because of this mistake.This re-balance is a effort to draw in supply of war supplies and stabilize the future value of MoH. They are correcting the marketplace as well as correcting the mistake made with Falken.

FoxBat · May 31, 2010, 04:15 AM // 04:15

Yeah, 4 supplies not worth the effort? Gift value is primarily exclusive minis that can't be bought anywhere else. Falken defined the value of supplies, the new lower rate will as well given a little time.

This would be an excellent idea. Also, methinks Confessor's Orders should either drop a little bit more frequently or the exchange rate should be switched to 2:1 instead of 3:1.
