Question For Dev team: Can you please low the soldiery cost for Animus books?

[ChibiChan_Hyperion]

500 Soldiery?! Hot dayum! That's better than 1500!

Better than 1500 Soldiery, sure. Not better than 1500 Myth used to be. That's the point. It was easier to get 1500 Myth pre-patch than it is to get 500 Soldiery post-patch. By a lot. A whole lot.

I don't have any problem getting Soldiery post-patch.

Problem? When was there a problem? This looks like a suggestion to me

[Kuskoo]

nah i doubt they'll drop the book cost, if anything like that did with myth they'll probably boost the soldiery drop at 2.45 or 2.5 give or take.

Only if you are counting from when Hunts was added to the game.
Anyway, they did lower the animus book cost already. Would have been 750 Soldiery to match 1500 Mythology otherwise.

It's easier to say the rates have not changed at all, if only a little worse on some aspects (specifically lolhunts). Saying that it's easier books/maps is utter nonsense though....

That's not the rate of conversion from the myth -> soldierly rewards, although this is a complete mess to begin with. Brayflox (heroic) gave 75 myths, now its down to 25 soldierly. Trials give 40 soldierly, down from 100 myths.

...yet first time bonuses are unchanged and give 100 soldierly across the board.

[Ditto]

It makes me laugh when people see a lower number and go "LUL ITS ALREADY CHEAPER"

If you want to add actual conversion rates they gave us from Myth -> Soldiery as well, 2000 Myth = 500 Soldiery.

It was easier to get 1,500 pre 2.4 than it is to get 500 Soldiery right now. When I say easier, I don't mean it's opposite being as if you have to bash your head against Titan EX just for 50 Soldiery. I mean the length of time it takes to actually accumulate the total amount of points you need to get your next book. There's no doubting, Hunts made gathering Myths a lot easier.

So when it comes down to it, there is little change, if not a worse change right now. Good luck bashing your head against 10 dungeons in between books, just to get the next one.

It is the conversion rate for items that used to be available for myth tomes and are now available for soldiery tomes.

It used to be 30 Brayflox HM 2-boss runs per book. Or 20 full runs.
10 dungeon runs per book is definitely less than it used to be.

They will probably increase the amount of soldiery in 2.45 or 2.5, so be patient.
