Things with 2 names:
TitaniumSword - Damascene Sword
MapPart - Map Fragment
BronzeOre - Ouch, that is confusing, as until now we got Copper Ore OR Bronze.
Realwood - that is what it was called in the first short period, now it is called Hardwood.
Beer - Same as the above - it's now Brew.
Corn - the really bad translation still runs around, trying to be Wheat. ;-)
And on PvP:
large island - huge island
Could the hardworking BB ppl get together and agree on 1 name pr thing, pls?
Join in with more confusion, as I sure didn't remember it all, fellow settlers.
The name confusing comes from the Translation from German to English from what I remember.
Happy to see new stuff being added quickly.

Hey Wardog, In your eagerness to quibble over names, I think you missed the big item. rewards appear to have decreased significantly for many of the items and have dropped for nearly all the items. Somebody remind me again why we bother to play this game other than to chat with our e-friends?
[QUOTE=RuthCarpenter;256153]Yes, BB keeps striping our rewards. Chatting is the only good thing left. Still waiting for BB justification for keeping Invasion of the Nords @ 1495 Gems, since epic buildings are essentially non existence.Quote:

I don't agree as the very first daily in that list (a dark shadow) gets imo a significant increase in value as I'd much rather have the map parts than steel/ewl. However I do see that some did get nerfed fairly hard (like a new job). I also note they removed all weapons as a possible reward which I think is probably the biggest reason they made this change.Quote:

I see no reason to hinder newer or lower level players with no way to gather any weapons under any means other than to buy or make them. This is an example of just hurting the new players to spite the older more established players.
I'm wondering why they dropped so many coin rewards.
I can't really tell that it's a huge shaft. While amount of coin has dropped drastically overall (around 10600 vs 865), 130 vs 1780 granite and 200 exo wood vs 3230 exo wood and 40 exo planks. Considering the prices, I don't know how well it evens out. However, it's clear it's favoring rare adv loot to ease up on those who primarily play the economics and not adventures. That's extra 6100 gold + 1500 gold so about 7600 gold in value (all approximate according to prices atm on TO). So 10600 vs 8465 in value. Yes it seems some overall loss though I did not count titanium (550 titanium swords, 300 titanium bars vs. 1075 titanium ore) so arguably after buffs, about the same. It might equal out when you count all the raw iron ore and copper ore vs the mix of planks, brew, pop, and so on though I'm not sure if it's covering the remaining 2000. All in all, not as huge a nerf as it seems initially, if at all. Just re-distribution from coin to resources.
You forgot the complete removal of gunpowder for no saltpeter, which is only going to drive up prices for the cannon chain even more. That's a gigantic nerf right there.
So....divert artifact searches for adv searches? Rainbows at 3k+ guaranteed (when found, obviously), versus a shot at more shitty adv rewards? Pass, fail, again. I already delete 80% of dailies now, can you just let us opt out?
ya they got an opt out program, it's called the delete button. you know the one you're using already for "80% of your dailies"....:rolleyes:Quote:

I asked Endesmor the same thing Moonlime. His answer was there were no plans at this time regarding guild quests. :(

Well I'll reserve judgement till the quest pops up. If they are nerfed i will just hit the delete button, some of the existing ones were already in the category of not worth doing, i fear that list has grown from the casual glance as most items have only 1 reward from the 2 that were there before
Wow, the changes to daily quest rewards look like some really high priority stuff, they went from being not worth much to being not worth much, well done i guess.
lol
200 wheel, 300 gunpowder and 15 cannon vs 615 salpeter. You could again argue that with 3xbuffs 600 salpeter is about 300 gunpowder. Wheels would have to be counted in iron and exo wood and 15 cannon is equivalent to about 60 salpeter (assuming buffs). So..again not huge difference.Quote:

One of my explorers brought back "Heart of Wood" on a medium search. I found myself wondering what the point was -- I got 40 star coins, 2 exo baskets, a marble depo, and yellow flowers -- but to get them I had to collect things, leave my island, create a buff, and return ---- 4 times.

"Complete 'Bandit Nest' for 500 granite and 50 coin" is my daily..........I like it!
I don't have a daily cause I can't keep a connection.
can you hear me now?Quote:

well I have always done the dailies just for something to do, but now it's really not worth it anymore. so congrats you have even taken that little tiny bit of enjoyment from the game. it was not really worth doing them before the rewards were small but now it's a lose/lose situation. just wondering when the weekly gem bonus will go to 50 then 25 maybe?
I'm getting granite, ewl and other goodies. I'm liking this change!
