    Switch to city-based mark system premature for DoL

    Since DoL aren't offered but 2 whole leves at each camp, it has now become even more rare to see marks offered from their leves. Before there were 6 chances per R20+ camp to get offered marks as a leve reward, now there are 2. I feel it is too early to limit marks rewards to DoL leves. When they make more leves per camp, It will be good.

    I agree. Specially by the fact that never both leves will have marks so we are actually restricted to up to 1 leve with marks unless you accept leves from lower camp.

    Just another good idea that turned into a very bad implementation...courtesy of 1.18, "because if it was Jesus Patch then ita about time for us to crucify it in a hope of something better to rebirth."

    I completely agree with this. I know it's slighty off topic, but the same can be said for DoH professions. If I wanted to before, I could burn up my anima traveling around to different cities trying to get marks from local leves...Now, I am forced to if I want a specific type of marks- before, it was an option, now it is the only option. Chalk it up to yet another idea that maybe sounded good to some devs on paper, but fails when it comes to actual implementation.

    Inclined to disagree. I was maxing out mark-based skills on Miner before even touching the grade 5 nodes, half of which I don't ever use.

    I think the idea about having the marks guild city based not bad - I think they should just add 4-5 leves in the guild city of which at least on has marks every reset. Then all would be good.

    Lucky you, I've been offered no botany marks at all since the patch.

    I have also noticed that the rewards for marks between the DoL classes are unbalanced. When I do my mining leves, the rewards are usually 1000+ marks. WHen I do the botany leves, the rewards are <1000 marks.
