Please SE lower the sparks requirements for Rem Chapters 1-5

[Mitruya]

^{Yes, please.}

Rem’s Tales are items we’d like players to obtain from places such as high-tier battlefields, and we’ve added opportunities to obtain them via Records of Eminence only as a supplementary avenue. With that said, we do not have any plans to lower the sparks requirements for Rem’s Tale chapters 1-5.

A major problem here can be seals though. It's not necessarily easy to gain another 20 seals of any specific type even with the 3:1 trade ratio. If the development team won't consider lowering their spark cost then maybe lower the restrictions in place for obtaining seals.

If you count the time to farm merit, make a pt, /shout and take the risk of failing then I'd say the solo efficiency is quite close to pt. PT has to be much, much, MUCH more efficient than solo to be an incentive to pt. I solo for CP/REM's tales very often just because it's often less efficient to make a pt for them. But I don't solo for plasm because there's no way I can get plasm nearly as fast as a delve pt. Thus plasm/delve is the right example for reward/effort ratio as a pt content, 119 AF isn't.

FYI, at 10k each you can collect 8 REM's tale for 119 af in 3hr. Sometimes a BC takes 1hr+ just to fill up, not including the time you farm merit, wipe with PUGs, zombie and shadowbind in PUG and so on. If you're not doing VD(which is nearly impossible with PUG) you'd need multiple runs to finish it, which often takes longer than 3hr of solo.

IMO higher tier BC just needs to give out better reward for helpers such as 5k~10k CP, that'd solve most of the problem.





I'm not "hurt" if you want to solo or enjoy solo, but I'm pretty sure it'd hurt the game in the long run if solo gets stuff more efficient than pt.

So you are able to complete the 500 damage objective in 2 mins 15 seconds, constantly for 3 hours? Seems unlikely, and to be honest, unless you have a bot doing this for you (assuming you don't as you say you don't cheat) it would be beyond mind numbing, and very unrealistic for most people. Why do you always throw out claims that 99.99% of players would never do? I see the point you're trying to get across, but why exaggerate?

Log in everyday. Bam 460 KS/BS or 153 SKC.

Don't forget that if you PT up with people you can get many extra Rem's just by participating on somebody else's orb.

You know there are other RoE objectives you can set other than 500 damage right?

DEV Team rather see how slowly people are leaving the game "540 players online in sylph ", even with new content and free access,tsk..tsk..tsk sad very sad.

Ok, but lowering the cost a bit won't change this. If people want their full set of pages today then they will still get them via battlefield.

not really. RDM/BLM. go to square room in crawler's nest and round up half the mobs (approximately 50 or so). stonega (or stonega2 if your gear isn't that great). will complete the objective in approximately 30 seconds. you spend more time pulling the mobs than you do completing the objective.

[Stompa]

A good way to do damage objectives while also obtaining the monsters-vanquished / geode / ite / seals / xp objectives at the same time, is to go kill Qutrubs in Caederva Mire, EP @ 99, all normal hits are 500-1500~ depending on your weapon power, and you get sparks from all the crystals/geodes etc. too. And you get IS which is always good to have.

#1) They're not 10k each, they're 15k each, so now it takes you 4.5 hours to solo.

#2) On Normal you'll get at least 2 chapters per run, meaning a max of 4 runs. Assuming you run to the time limit each run, that's still only 2 hours. Added to the hour that you pointed out that it CAN take to get a party together, and you're looking at 3 hours total, the same as in your hypothetical situation where chapters 6-10 only cost 10k sparks.
