Why (my) retainers r so lazy?

[Sartori]

It's been like a very long time since I use their services, And it filled me with joy when they can finally be more useful than just keeping our stuff. But after some time, this has became a question on it's own.

Why every time I send them to 18 hours venture, they only bring back like very small percentage of effort amount I can do in 18 hours?



And let's not speak of my DoW/DoM retainer which only brings (useless) 3 coeurl meat/skin. In 18 hours straight, I bet I can farm like thousands of it. lol

The venture coins are not quite cheap either. I must slave away myself farming GC seals, hunt seals, or do beastmen dailies to get them in order to pay retainers for their services.


What do you think? Think retainers can and should bring more than our own effort, no? lol

Do quick exploration. I"ve gotten 4 pots of the new dyes and a Craftsman Command IV. They made me around 750k in the last few days

You're just very lucky my friend.

When Ixali beast dailies released, I got over-abundance of coins again and start doing alot of quick ventures again. Lo and behold, more fish craps coming my way again. lol
After capped that beast rank, I stopped doing this and go back doing 18 hours again.

That's besides the point tho. This thread is more about the 18 hour ventures, not about the quick ventures, hence why I put "lazy" on my title. I don't mind quick ventures since it's 1 hour only task (albeit bringing me crap most of time). But here, I'm talking about the effort retainers give on 18 hour task which can be accomplished in just 1 hour (or even less) when I do it myself.
