Curse

Just a thought after seeing that Nightfall will be (rumored) adding more Challenge Missions (currently, I am at a loss as to why).

Here's the issue at hand for me and my guildies in reference to these missions:

In a ten minute timeframe I can make 2k from a boring farm run. In normal play with all henchies just a quick roam around a zone 2k, lets say about 20minutes.
Getting a group together and getting people to stay without the typical cookie cutter in the challenge missions takes near 10 to 20 minutes. Then we play through it and get nill for a pay out that comes close to what I could gain other wise.
So, while those missions are fun, I feel as if I have wasted my time in doing them with the payout being so low.

I would like to see the Challenge Missions payout equal to or exceed what a farm run can bring it.

Thoughts?

Agreed.

I myself only tried out Challenge Missions a few times when Factions was released, after a few runs I concluded that them Challenge Missions are simply not worth my time.

Please give people a reason to actually take up the challenge.

Some people simply dont care if their name is on a scoreboard or not, these zones are just going to waste for them.

If the challenge missions paid out bonuses after breaking certain plateaus in points, it would give more incentive to play there.

Oh and make sure the rewards are proportionate to party size, so it would equal out to farming solo (a 4 minute elona run can net me anywhere from 400-700 gold).
