Forked Tower and temporary event cards ruined TT cards collection

[Catastrophe573]

The Elmer card was given #9999 (funny FF number) so that it wouldn't conflict with achievements. Like the EX cards, it's kind of not part of the normal set. (I wish it appeared on the EX page, but that's a minor nitpick.)

And I'm calling it now. King Elmer will come back every May for Make It Rain. Every year. Which is soon!

Also, I'm calling this now too. At some point in patch 7.5x an NPC will have the Magitaur card. Because patch 4.55 added an NPC battle against Hetsukaze that just simply handed out 3 rare fate cards, plus one new unique one. So fighting Provenance Watcher and two others was no longer required. In fact I bet they were already planning on doing this with the Magitaur card. But if they weren't, they sure are now.

Hetsukaze

Kugane (7.9,13.6)

Patch 4.55

Rewards: Penthesilea Card, Dvergr Card, Provenance Watcher Card

No need to do the fates in dead content.

Crazy what you learn with a little effort in a google search.

There is no such thing as FOMO in this game, everything comes back, be it event quest re-run or Cash Shop.
Elmer card will be back during "Make it Rain" rerun as always. Just like Catastrophe said.

That's what people said about the Eureka Orthos card (honestly, pilgrim traverse is far more fair than EO, which had a difficulty peak at lvl 30 and, no start from 31 and card available only between 31 and 70, with every trash mob being a HP sponge with OHKO mechanic), and it's still not there. I really hope you're right, Penny and PW cards were easy to get compared to this one.

As I said, people have been asking for the EO Card to be available elsewhere for several years, and despite having people like you claiming it would, because that happened with the HoH ones, it's still not there. So maybe let go of the pedantic tone.

And anyway, despite having the Elmer Card, I still thing it's shitty design.

Hopefully they add an alternative to the card and field notes because the content it's locked behind can't be unsynced even in the future.

For me it's the dungeon drops that ruined it for me. It's like a 1%/2% drop rate for a 20 minute dungeon. I'll grind trials no problem, but dungeons can absolutely slide on.

The biggest issue is you don't earn cards for playing the card game anymore. What's the point? All cards should be obtainable by playing the game with alternative drops in instances.

There's nothing stopping you from simply doing the content and getting the card, so why not just do it?

[OdrN]

As if Forked Tower was a thing that you could do just like that...

I also hope they will add some npc to win the card from, like they did for Eureka.

They haven't added a Triple Triad NPC as an alternative since Shadowbringers

LOL you're funny

Good thing Forked Tower isn't Savage content

Good thing Forked Tower isn't Savage content

As someone who has been in Forked Tower Blood and have enjoyed it, not really the point. The card isn't a guaranteed drop. I've met people who got quite a number of clears before the card even appeared for them, and not everyone wants to run it 100 times.

As for the EO card being mentioned here, that one actually isn't too bad: grab someone and run through normally, not using any of the poms that show you where the horde chests are, then when you get to the first set that has silver you use them all, beat the boss, then go look and see what you got. I would like to see it on a different NPC still, or possibly they will make the other DDs like PT in the future.... Who knows.
