    Four Winds - Various Quest Chains Evaluation

    Level 16-25 - This quest requires no adventures. And is the most easiest to do for 500 gems. And 4 noble houses.
    (in fact any player could probably 'reroll' a new character and get this done if they just wanted 4 noble houses.)
    Not to mention the amount of gems you get from rerolling You could in fact gift yourself the silo or watermill almost in theory if you loggin for a week.

    Level 26-35 - This quest line sucks because of the granite requirements of repeating island of pirates (which has a really bad return on the resources spent to finish it.) BUT its not terribly bad with dark priest since its a 2 player questline that you can share with another player and piggy back off their quest completion without wasting your own troops to finish the zone (if you're low on troops and don't need xp).

    Level 36-45 - This questline is the WORST of all of the different levels. Why? Bandits Nest is very hard to get from adventure if its even acquireable from adventures. Cost too much in map fragments. Has a poor return. Chance of getting granite is 33%. Can NOT be done with 2 players. And on top of that the last chain getting granite from "old friends" which can only be obtained as a "drop" from Witch of the Swamp. This means you have to 3 different adventures for this questline minimum. And if you're very unlucky, the old friends may not drop. And if it does, and you don't get granite it. You have to do witch of the swamp again. and then old friends again. Witch of the Swamp is a 1 player map, same as old friends. You can not share the resource load/burden with anybody else.


    Level 46-50 - This questline is not terribly bad as it has 2 adventures that are shareable with 2-3 friends. And the reward for doing them is not terribly bad. But its jsut as frustrating as the previous as it requires granite.



    You guys really really need to fix your game design. Possibly give players a choice to which quest chain they'd prefer. Maybe allow players to choose a quest chain to do once. It's unfair to have 4 quest chains that I'm forced into the hardest one when I never got a chance to do the easiest one because I passed that level already before you introduced these quest lines.

    I think that we should be allowed to do the first 'tier' of quest chain if its our first time doing it. And then the second tier etc... later. etc.


    For example, there are a lot of quests for new players right now that give great decoration rewards. But this was introduced way after I had surpassed that level and now I can't get those decoration rewards unless I start over and make a new account. We should be allowed to do quests even easy ones that were introduced later.

    I would really love the opportunity to progress beyond the first step in the quest chain, but due to (game errors?) or just bad luck, I am still sitting at step one with no marble from the short treasure search. This is after 9 attempts at earning the 10 marble. I think I am going to have to call this bad design for the lower levels as well since I am only on level 21.

    Yea getting past the first search for step can be frustrating and demoralizing if you're on a failed losing streak.


    But its far worst when you get to the adventure stages where you're forced to do bad adventures that have band returns forcing you to burn a ton of units (recruits or calvs or milias- example:bandits nest). At least with the first step you're only wasting 6hrs of time. not tons of resources for a really bad return 7 times.

    I think you should be able to find bandits nest and surprise attack through adventure searches
