Just a heads up that Lost In Time (the upcoming PVE Event) has different rewards tiers compared to a normal run. All rewards tiers are ~20x the required placement of normal. IE
1-20: First place rewards
21-100: Second tier rewards
101-200: Third tier
201-400: Fourth tier
401-1000: Fifth tier
The rest of the tiers (6-13) simply don’t exist for this event. You’ll essentially be placing top 100 at least regardless of how you do.
This is a one time thing, to help people take care of their gameplay during Thanksgiving while having both a PVE event and a Boss Event. We’ll take a look at the numbers and how people change their play patterns, but no promises for any long term changes.
Thanks, always like free stuff. But people whine way too damn much lol. There’s really no way to make the elitist people happy, so I say don’t even bother. If Events overlap, they get mad because they HAVE TO PLAY, and they have to do it in the utmost meta way to squeeze every point out of it or else little bunnies die.
If you had no events for thanksgiving they’d complain they have nothing to earn in their free time, if you extend one of the events to last another day, it’s torture because that throws off their calculations.

A nice sop to distract from the fact that once again we’re being made to do four events at once. You all really, really hate for us to have a life.
Who’s forcing you to play a game? Who’s requiring you to play all events? Take the weekend off if you like.
Thanksgiving is not a holiday outside the US, I have to schedule a boss event (to help my alliance) and a normal event (so I can progress) into a working week/weekend. I won’t be playing the puzzle event as I won’t have time for it.

So blame your tyrant alliance for guilt tripping you. Don’t blame the developers for offering options. Sheesh
Nice update to the rewards structure. Personally, I like the dual events for the extra resources. Boss events are much more lightweight anyway in terms of playtime, so easy to manage both. Dual PVEs are fine too, the more options for play the better. Puzzle Gauntlets don’t count (imo) as a concurrent event because they have a longer play window, and are also easily skipped given the rewards available.
So awesome. I initially thought that running an event, boss event, and PVE consecutive during Thanksgiving was a bit much. Quickly dissipated with all the great surprises though. Feels like y’all actually play the game. I am a fan.
I read this thread late last night when i was at work and never went to check what the rewards were and now stoked that I’m pretty much guaranteed a LL for my placement and most likely will get two if I get my usual top 5-15 finish. I would highly doubt this reward structure would happen again but I’m all for it! Good stuff.
