[Event] Make an extension due to decreased boss encounters

The boss encounter rate has dropped significantly after the first week of the event, to a degree where players who didn't complete the seasonal quests during that time are at a significant disadvantage to those who did.

We're over halfway through the Murkwood event with no word on the encounter rates, leaving players unsure about whether or not it's intentional.

Some players have been holding off grinding for the seasonal quests due to this, as it's noticeably slower to get through the seasonal tasks with these decreased rates, hoping that the rates will be brought back, or at least get confirmation that it's an intentional change.

I think it's only fair to give us an event extension due to this

Yes, please. Even just word on the intent or non intent of this change. And with the event so far along, an extension would be totally fair.

Support some kind of dev comment on what the encounter rate is intended to be -- whether the higher rate was a bug, a catch-up mechanism for when the encounters weren't spawning at all, or the intended rate & the current lower rate is the bug.

No support for the rest; the boss tasks may block up two task slots but it's not that much slower to do tasks if you're swapping to arena when the only campaign tasks you have are for bosses.

Point of fact, the current boss encounter rate is probably better for task completion for people who were getting hung up on the "defeat x enemies" task due to constant boss spawns that they couldn't defeat.

I don't support any more adjustments or extensions. I only play for a few hours a day now myself, WAY down from the gameplay time I had during last event. I still have WAY more tickets to spend with this event. Last event I had no job and played majority of they day, and I currently work a job where I'm able to play around 4-5 hours a day on average. I still have 3 milestones to meet, but there are still 13 days left in the event. The boss encounter activity isn't quite that common, I have yet to find it clogging up my activities. Sometimes I will need to leave 2 boss encounter activities there and go play arena, but this still flows well. I personally think it feels balanced pretty well.
I DO think transparency on the adjustments is a great idea though ^.^

i wouldnt mind extention due to the lack of communication- would also be nice to know when we are getting the other promised apparel with the event over half done and not seen them yet. C O M M U N I C A T I O N again lack of any.

They also haven't announced any new recolors of the apparel like they said they would...I was really looking forward to those. As for the boss encounters, I think they're fine, but then again, I do spend a lot of time doing campaign, so other people might have a different experience.

I don't support, I'm terrible at the area and still have thousands of tickets. a month is already extremely long when most pet site/game events are a week at most.

I don't support as I feel like I have far too many tickets, but I do agree that the boss encounter rate should have probably been posted in the patch notes or something.

Not to mention - they haven't said diddly about... anything.


At all. They added the new farming items, ok cool cool - what about the recolors? Fishing frenzy copy/paste auto post cool cool, and the announcement of the Direwolf Launch Raffle closing.

But. Nothing else? Hello is there anyone there? Can anyone give any kind of information or anything? Was the intent to nerf? Was it a bug? Was it just an au naturel thing that just kinda happened because Lore Reasons™? Silence is not golden.

i may have a ton of tickets, but tickets don't matter if there's nothing to buy, an extension is as good for the players as it is for the devs.

Highly support.

Maybe it wouldn't be necessary if we had better communication from the devs, and that they acknowledged whether it was a bug or intentional, whether they were even aware of it or not... Because of that failure, I do support some kind of extension for the people who stopped playing early with the hope that the bug would be addressed and fixed the next week. :/

I don't think it's particularly fair to compare my pre-nerf ticket amount with post-nerf players, especially ones that stopped while they were waiting for what seems like a very obvious bug to get fixed; it's not their faults for not wanting to grind hugely nerfed encounter rates and waste a bunch of food just for it to get fixed a week later if it was indeed a bug.

If they announced it was a bug or an intentional change, that would be one thing. But they didn't, so... I can't blame new folks that aren't used to the lack of communication for thinking that they'd get any news about it.

@kytkat

Yeah that's the big kicker. So many things we need words on and nada.
