[Suggestion] Venture loop option

[Skyy]

It would be nice if I could set my retainers to run multiple Ventures at a time without having to manually accept the item and re-send them out. With a limit to not remove the need to use the 18 hour venture.

Almost like quick synthesis if I have 10 ventures and know I'll pre-occupied for 5 or 6 hours, I can set my retainer to run say 5 consecutive quick exploration or hunting for a particular item and at the conclusion of each, it will hold onto that reward and go on the next one having been pre-paid.

You could cap it at 5 or 10, or whatever number makes sense. But, only having the option to run 1 hours worth (or 40, 50 min) or 18 hours is annoying. Sometimes I want to do an extended one, but while I'm sleeping for 5-8 hours, not be locked out for 18 hours for a whopping...HQ Courl meat and 3 allagan pieces.


(Also as an aside, seeing so much XP go to waste for level 50 ventures, couldn't there be some other reward? I'm sure it's pre-planned for future level increases but it just seems like such a wasted reward)

I could already image the market crash and burn. Nobody will be hunting/gathering anymore. They would just send out the retainers to do the boring/dirty task.

People are already doing that, I probably send my retainers out 5-10 times a day right now manually. It would be nice to have them run a few overnight rather than get locked for 18 hours.

With this, people wouldn't be doing 5-10 a day (or the probably more common 2-3 per day). You'd be doing 24 per day, and so would everyone else who can afford the venture tokens. A quick exploration or two and then an 18-hour one are the intended daily amount of loot retainers are supposed to bring in.

I wouldn't mind a few people doing 5-10 times a day. They already spent the effort on logging in just to do some clicks on their retainer. The effort is not much different from manually gathering/hunting the materials.

If for example everybody would be able do 24 times a day per retainer, using only less than 5 minutes of your time, then I think this is a different situation. People will farm seals instead, and no longer manually gather/hunt.

Hmmm 1 or 2 quick??? I run quick 4-5 per day with exploration and weekends most of the day are quick.. so prob around 14-18. Well had to do something with all the seals I was getting from the silly atma grind that took me near 1000 fates to finish. Now I just get enough dungeon drops for the seals.
