    Can't stay motivated for it.
    One of the best ways to stay motivated is to find someone approximately the same level  as you, and start a friendly competition.

    Also, let people know ICly you're working towards dragon. I know when I was making my own push to dragonhood, the help/encouragement/support/harassment from friends was invaluable, and always helped to keep me motivated.

    You give the corpse of a berserk prisoner to Lican, a mad occultist.
    Lican cackles with glee.

    All 44 corpses and the writ (Normally approx. 12k)

    You put 150 gold sovereigns in a canvas backpack.

    What the fliuch?

    @Tecton @SarapisHas this been nerfed?

     @Penwize noticed it as well. It seems the Tenwat gold quest has been removed.

    Can confirm that Talus in Dun Valley only takes about 500 gold worth of animals, now, and Kurgo in Taryen only takes so many before he refuses to take any more. 

    Edit: I really really hope that they aren't taking out gold turn-ins or severely limited all of them. I can understand maybe limiting some of the Dragon-level ones, but places like Dun Valley? Talus is how I got enough gold to afford all of my provisions as a level 60-ish person. Not like gold drops from mobs below level 80 is exactly spectacular. 

    Edit edit: Don't pull an Aetolia! Gold is not worth that much! 7k credits is only due to the past two month's promotions!

    I'm going to guess (re: hope) that if they're also touching up lower-level bashing areas as well as the big payout places, it means they're also going to be generally re-evaluating normal gold drops for various areas (especially the dry area between level 30-70 or so) to help balance that a bit.

    Hopefully, this isn't the case, but I'm having strong Aetolia flashbacks right about now.
    Give us -real- shop logs! Not another misinterpretation of features we ask for, turned into something that either doesn't help at all, or doesn't remotely resemble what we wanted to begin with.

    Thanks!

    No different from the norm right now, really.

    That said, it is very surprising to hear islands got hit, too. Makes me wonder what the motivation/plan behind this all is.

    Really? People do that?! (He says, as he blitzes through qurnok)

    I would hope that is a pre-cursor to the 'discovery' of newer bashing areas.

    What happens when all the people who settle for 100k per RL day or whatever realise that they need to hunt an extra hour to get there? 

    Surely the spill-over from that will be awful?  You'll have over-levelled people bashing anywhere they can get their hands on.

    They already used to do that. :unamused: When I was bashing to dragon, the highlight of my day was trying to do Dun swamp while certain dragons would blitz through it (sometimes in pairs, those loving couples!) for easy quest gold. So yes, it does go both ways. Small people bashing big places are an irritation, but big people bashing small places is obnoxious.

    I'm a dragon now, but I do Grukai because I'm not a jerk. (reb reb reb).

    Checked, and got about 3k gold total from the hand-in quest. Seems less than I remember, but I haven't done it in a while.

    The problem is hitting quests will take forever to make a real difference unless people just aren't sitting on stockpiles of gold at all (and they might not be, I dunno, really).
  • SkyeSkye The Duchess Bellatere
    Usually stockpiles of credits more than gold, which is why the credit market prices are always appreciating. 

    A lot of gold that I make inevitably trickles back into the game via crafting/ship upkeep/buying trade cargo and getting sunk by seamonsters (lol) etc. 


  • AereidhnaAereidhna Dallas

    The amusing thing is you can turn in the first ten or so, and then they're like 'oh, I'm not THAT big of a monster, sheesh, Aereidhna, you freaking genocidal maniac' or 'oh, I ran out of gold, come back later.' Is there supposed to be some logic to this, like it's going to train me to only kill ten things and then leave? Because I still clear out all the areas, Lady Valnurana just ends up with more essence. I don't normally hand in corpses for gold except for one or two spots, though, so maybe I'm not the target audience.

    (edited to add: Whoever wrote those denizen messages should get a cookie, though, that was super cute. I almost grew a bashing ethic for two seconds.)
  • XadenXaden
    I'm sitting on my biggest ever stockpile of gold, right now. But I had a bank balance of 200k less than one week ago.

    My gold pretty much always went straight back to credit market but it feels wrong to spent over 7k per credit so I'm sitting on it, waiting for the market to 'right itself'

    Tyeh every time credit is high I will just save the gold in the bank and dig some comms. 
  • KayeilKayeil Washington State
    Well that sucks, though I'm unsurprised. Seems an overreaction to a credit market that has only changed by 1k gold per credit and pretty much stabilized there. This is what happens when people freak out and demand gold sinks and nerfs.
    What doesn't kill you gives you exp.

  • KezKez
    Gold quests have been getting cut since before the cfs ranting began. I'm sure I heard screaming about the vertani turn-ins before that.

    Ah well, will figure out a new circuit.
