    Request: Mass delivery for GC's Supply/Provisioning Missions

    Please allow us to select numbers of delivery we want to do base on the amount of items we currently have in our Inv. The current system waste sooooooooooooooo much time to make the delivery.

    Ex:

    _ They need 3 black ghosts.
    _ I have 200 black ghosts
    _ When I want to delivery, they should ask how many I want to delivery, then give me option to choose from 1 to 66 (200/3 = 66 times max)
    _ I pick 66
    _ They give me reward of 4x66 = 264 seals, I have 2 blck ghosts left in my Inv.

    With the current system, I have to go through the whole process 66 times, which is utterly waste of time and stupid.

    Thanks

    I was going to suggest this too. Turning in 100 raw garnets one at a time isn't very fun ^^;

    Ya it can be very tedious, I"m surprised they didn't create a concept of just having it say:
    You current have (600) Oak Branches
    How many sets would you like to give (200) max.
    Input=50
    Giving 50 will give you 250 credit, Confirm?

    Hopefully it's something they can add in fast it seems like such a goofy oversight lol.

    I can't agree more with this. The supply and provision quotas for the Immortal Flames on Palamecia aren't being touched because of this clunky system in place.

    The development team is continuing to look into the possibility of mass delivery for supply and provision missions.

    Specifically we are looking into implementing the below items:
    • Selecting delivery goods from the item list
    • Making it possible to deliver in large quantities
    • Make it possible to deliver a set number of designated items
    • Bonuses for delivering HQ items at the same time
    We are proceeding to look into this for a patch 1.20 implementation, however, depending on the circumstances there is a possibility that it will be pushed back to after this.

    To be honest I"m surprised it would be that complicated to change the concept behind it. To be honest something as simple as this would be a justification not to want to pay for a monthly subscription if a person who mainly focuses on gathering or crafting finds that their means to gain company seals is a very long and tedious process.

    If the concept stays in the same essence as it is now I imagine that it could work in this manner

    fish
    wood
    ore

    leather
    cloth
    ingot

    So with:
    3 Fish=6 seals
    3 wood=5 seals
    1 ore=3 seals

    Basically choose "Porvision" then select the one you want to give. Then be propped to ask
    Which quality would you like to give. NQ, 1, 2, 3?

    With x ratio you can give y sets, how many would you like to give?

    With y given you'll recieve z seals would you like to confirm?

    IMO setting up like this would not be a problem if we are given an unlimited amount to send at a time though I might see that there could bea potential issue in sending more thena stack of items at one time so even something as simple as sending 99 at a time wouldn't be a problem if you could just start it out like that. It would beat having to do it 33-99 times based on the item you can give where something as 4 stacks of 99 would take 4 talks rather then 132-396 talks. I've done it myself, it takes nearly half and hour to an hour to trade 500 of an item at a 3 at a time ratio and that's when the commands are on top of one another making it easy to spam click the commands while talking.

    I'm thankful for the response but I hope they can make it a priority to implement the changes before they start charging a subscription fee since the way it is now is a very inconvinient way for gatherers and crafters to be able to make seals.

    Can't wait for this. Deliver them is such a pain.
