I remember a few month ago, there was major whining over the event quests involved with cathan new year. Player would delete characters to remake them to redo the quests to gain more rewards, effectively farming the non repeatable quests. This was fixed by adding a lvl 5 character requirement.
But now that the dragon festival is here, and these quest are not nerfed the same way. Victory tokens can be farmed continuously.
And no mention of this on Guru. With all the whining with ursan and sf, this amazes me. I sorta wondered if they are so pissed about ursan and sf to care about this, or mb they decided they rather have the ability to exploit these quests for there gains.
To be honest if you have 2 accounts, running gwx2 ( or two computers), you can farm 480 victory tokens in 20-30 minutes( worth 8-10k per stack) . This can be more income than the sf farm, and it not random drops. Now if you had 4 accounts running at the same time...
Personally i have no problem with them not nerfing it, it removes income from rich players wanting titles, and give it to the poor that don't care about them. I just don't like the inconsistency.
Where's the whine?

Eh.. who cares really.
I love whine, pour me a glass.
Events = money, so it's best to just make money if you need it, there's nothing to lose really.

These quests arent as easy (for a level 1) as the others, having to fight level 5-12ish guys all over the map isnt an option for most level ones. I think that is why they did not bother with a cap. Granted you could do with a guidie runnig 3 new chars but still.

I wouldn't consider it a big concern.

How come I never know of exploit until its been nerf-ed?

Let's take for example someone having one account and five characters. Gaining 240 (yes, you get 240, not 250 Tokens from all four quests) Tokens five times is 1200 Tokens.
Take away 250 Tokens for a mask will give me 950 Tokens to do with whatever one pleases. Assuming that person will be lucky enough to sell the Tokens at 100 gold each, that comes to... 95k!
If you can do it, it works and you're doing it in a way that wont screw your account and game play... then there's nothing else more to say.
People who complain FAIL. End of story.

yeah, its good to do i youve done all the quests on all the chars, then it comes down to if u want to go through with it. if i wasnt in germany during the time of the festival (ffs -_-) i would most probably do it and i dont see why not either.

This is me not playing the game because everything went boom. Perhaps I will go take a peek at wiki and see what I am missing? Yes yes, good.

If you can call 72 hours afk on the rings "playing" then yes, i suppose you could say lots of people are playing the game this weekend...

Everyone knows that this festival is for the sole purpose of making your character stand around and fall over every so often whilst you watch TV. Fact.
I might, however, complete the quests with each of my characters.
Less QQ and more ££.

Mostly i wondering why these questd were left farmable, and the cathan new years were nerfed. Ideally, i'd prefer that they remove the lvl 5 requirement for canthan new year quests.

These quests don't give you anything special except hat. Hat does not need to be rare or anything, so quests are accessible.

I dont see anything to whine about. So what if someone has 3 accounts and 12chars and they are farming all the quests for tokens? Its easy money and not like it's available 365 days out of a year...

Meh It would make sense to put a lv 5 cap on it but really, how long does it take to get to lv 5 either. And as far as it being hard for low lvs. 1 lv 20 +3 low lv can easy do it.
I did the quests on all my lv 20 pve charas. I helped some of my guildies with it who were low lvs as well. I am enjoying the event all in all.
I havn't created chara's for the sole purpose of farming tho. Altho I would not be adversed to the idea. At least ppl are actually doing something instead of afking on 9 rings lmao.

Why do I feel that I don't even have to get 1 victory point for a mask that I will never EVER wear again? I mean, come on, I have already 5 or 6 masks and last time I used 10g to create one was... I think 8 months ago. Not worth my time.

Soooo wait. If Kind of a Big Deal is 1/5 of perfection, and I have almost 3/5 of it... I am 3/25 perfect? WOOHOO!

Oh, yeah. Try to kill Disguisesd Grasps of Insantity with a level 5 character and Shing Jea henchmen.
You'll have some fun.
People can have one lvl 20 character and 3 low level ones, though, and get the level 20 to kill and the other to heal or anything like that, and then share the tokens...
But who cares anyways?
