Default Uneaven Zcoins

*close other thread*
I just did Nolani academy(old ZM) HM-with Bonus
i recived 74 Bronze coins... Why Uneaven coins? its just useless, and just annoy ppl that has 248 coins, and cant get 5 silver, cus of those 2 lousy left
its an simple fix, just take it down 5 or up 5,not "Do this and get 24 coins extra"
So, whatya think?

Sorry if QQy, but im tired =(

For simplicity's sake, I wouldn't mind seeing Z-coin award amounts being pushed up or down to the nearest multiple of 5.

Actually,
The reward ARE even. If you see
Elona Reach = 100 Copper
Magmus = 140 Copper
GvG = 350 Copper
Gate of Pain = 150 Copper
Mobrin = 105 Copper.

Evrything is just even. If you do it on NM and not on HM then it is for sure uneven. HOW can you get EVEN zaishen coins with 3 things to do to get the max reward? So dont know where you are QQ'ing about..

Actually there are quests that are uneven in that they don't end in a multiple of 5. Basically all the missions that fill the young hero of tyria book give rewards that are off. It is pretty annoying to be left with 1 zcoin. It's not a big deal no one is qqing about it it's just a small change that would make the game slightly more pleasant.

I really have no idea why Anet would make rewards that don't give multiples of 5. Did they not think that would be annoying at all?

they're just suggesting they make all of the rewards rounded to the nearest 5. so that 74 would be 75 so things would just work out more evenly. its annoying to have 1-4 bronze coins leftover.

i think that its kind of annoying having 1 more bronze coin left till you get that zaisehn key or fireworks crate. it would be easy to implemetn this adn would stop alot of ppl just going"arrrrgggggg /pull hair out".
thats all i have to say on this matter xD.

If you didn't notice, the PvE 3-part quests all give: x, 1.5x, and 2.5x as the reward. So when you have a basic award of 30, the other two will give multiples of 5. However, some quests are really easy, so they make it start out with 15 and the bonus rewards won't be multiples of 5 even though the base reward is. If you want them to change it to 10, 15, 25 I guess that's fine, but some quests really aren't even worth the 20 base.

That's why they can only be done once per character, it's not like the PvP titles that can be repeated for the duration of the day.

^some people dont get what we want
if i for one day, just decide to do the ZM, and then the other day do all three
i will end up with an uneaven coin.
thats why an simple fix on that would be great ..

This is an unnecessary pointless suggestion.
But people like round numbers.
That's a fact.

5 is always better than 4 or 6, 10 is always better than 9 or 11.
Why? Who knows? Maybe because we (or at least most of us) have 5 fingers in each hand.

It would probably take very little time, and people may be slightly happier with it. So I wont oppose at all to the idea.
I like even things and round numbers too.

It's very annoying that every time I convert my bronze coins into silver, I wind up with some left over. Just make the rewards in even multiples of five and all is good. A change of 1 coin in the rewards isn't going to really change the value ration of them at all, and it'll be so much more convenient for people, since all rewards are in multiples of 10.

No, it's because we live our daily lives in a base 10 system. 5 fits extremely well into 10, you can fit two(!) 5's into a 10 even.

And when all the zcoin traders trade with batches of coins that come in various multiples of 5, it seems only natural to want to have a nice round number so that you don't have to wait two weeks for some other uneven zcoin quest to come up so you can finally fill it in.
