Feedback on Existing Bonus Campaigns

[Camate]

Hello, everyone!

Each month we’ve been cycling through a variety of different campaigns that focus on different content and aspects of the fun present in Vana’diel. I’d like to use this space to collect feedback on your favorite campaigns thus far, as well as which you’d like to see make a return soon.

Additionally, feel free to provide feedback for aspects you’d like to see improved for campaigns that have taken place in the past as well!

Based on the comments here, we’ll be working with the development team to determine which campaigns are implemented in the near future!

The campaigns are lovely. But stop stacking them so that one stays active at all times. CP bonus doesn't happen often enough, other than that, good stuff.

Make trust ALWAYS available, no more campaigns for them.

Change #dials to be -useful- *chances* aren't good enough. double 1% isn't something anyone should be getting excited about.

CP bonus is sorely needed, realistically it needs to be dropped from the campaign and just made a full-time thing then you can use the campaigns for the others, though try not to do too many at once, maybe something like:

1:
Vagary Campaign
Dark-Matter Campaign

2:
Bonus Bayld Campaign
Wildskeeper Campaign

3:
Gaes Fete Campaign
Abjuration Chest

4:
Voidwatch Campaign
Nyzul Isle Uncharted Mystery Item

5:
Campaign Festa
Additional Seal Campaign

6:
Unity Wanted Campaign
Double Unity / Sparks Campaign

Maybe make them follow a yearly pattern so you know what's coming.

Every Campaign without a Capacity Point Campaign leaves ALL of my friends and linkshell members severely disappointed. It would be great to have this one included every time. Leaving us months without one is just painful.

CP bonus should be the most frequent and is absolutely the most important campaign. In my opinion, the most important campaigns are:

-Vagary - No amount of crafting materials would be too much when the HQs are so good.
-Unity Wanted - Double coffers are very welcome when the RNG gods are against you.
-Gaes Fete (Reisenjima) - A lot of the NMs are pretty challenging so a small chance to get lucky is very welcome.

I think these should occur frequently. Campaigns for the following should happen once in awhile but are less needed I think:

-Voidwatch - Automatic capped lights are the only thing that make this event worth doing.
-Incursion - Likewise, this event is only worth doing with 100% grand coffers.

Thanks for taking feedback Camate.

I personally dislike campaigns - they make an already easy game much easier - and would prefer they disappear altogether. Many of the campaigns act as temporary "fixes" to areas of the game that are unpopular and require updates to make them more appealing on a permanent basis (Voidwatch, Wildskeeper Reives, Vagary), but if I had to choose a favorite among them it would probably be the XP/CP campaign as it benefits absolutely everyone and probably gets the most people to spend time playing the game, socializing with each other.

I disagreed with you as I began to read, so I'll highlight the important (and imo, correct) point in your post for anyone else.

I like that Frog Ambuscade VD gives nearly a full JP with np CP bonuses. Been wanting that for a while. I'm with detlef and Diavolo on more-common/permanent CP campaign, but that's primarily because most content gives lackluster JP.

CP Bonus should be at least every other month.

I'm surprised no one said anything about the HTBF campaign. I've been waiting on that one for a while (since Rainbow campaign?).

Campaigns that should be more often than not:

Alter Ego HQ (the HP and trust sacrificing ones combined)
Skirmish (since it is almost irrelevant)
Incursion
Unity
HTBF
CP/EXP Bonus
Domain Invasion Dragons
Walk of Echoes

Campaigns that should be every 3-4 months:

Voidwatch
Vagary
Nyzul Isle Uncharted Mystery Item
WKR/Bayld (the plus event that gives 4 HPB)
Dark Matter
Wanted/Abjuration Dials
Gaes Fete

A schedule would be great so we know what to expect. The past few months seem to be repeating the same events more frequently than before. I'd also like to see some new events. I know SR campaign is impossible (apparently) but how about some fresh ideas? Admittedly I can't think of anything right now.

Think everyone wants more cp campaigns.

Could add new/change and combine some campaigns a little. Like combine the balyd/wkr with delve one. Combine all the dial ones into 1. Combine the gaes fete and dragons ones.

Also for the old broken content ones that are basically never done outside of campaign just make them permanent.

A repeat of the Trust Login campaign (wherein all of the previously available login campaign trusts were available for 100 points each) would be much appreciated. Wouldn't even mind if prices were raised to 300/500 a trust as long as I can get the good ones.
