Need more incentives to farm Bicolor Gemstones (Fates) and Sack of Nuts (Hunts)

[MaxDetroit]

Hello!

At the moment I feel no real incentive to get all fates to level 3 in all regions and to do hunting in Shadowbringers. The rewards I can buy with these currencies are by far not exciting enough to keep me going.

For both activities to be fun you need an active community, so I hope with 5.1 we will get more interesting stuff to buy with those currencies - so we get an active FATE and Hunt community again.

In my opinion, having some long term goals for grinding these activities would really help the current Endgame.

Fates I can definitely understand, I lost interest a few weeks in ...but Hunts not being rewarding enough or having an active community? O.o

[ForteNightshade]

Uh... the Hunt community is extremely active? At least it is on Aether. I literally just finished a train with 100 people at 10am EST. FATEs, on the other hand, died off. But that isn't really surprising. People just don't like doing them.

They gradually add in more items to exchange for with the Hunt currency. Most likely in 5.1 we'll get our first spill of those items.

The usual suspects are the Logs which can be exchanged for the Augmentation items for the Deepshadow gear. That'll make your DS gear 470 which will be very nice.

Past that they usually add in emotes as well that are pretty pricy, but for now the Augmentation items should be your biggest boon when they come out.

Well, they are going to add more Nuts stuff for new patches like they always did, like Books for Equips upgrades for example.

For Gemstones i bet there's new stuff coming too, at least new mats for crafting to new recipes in the future ( which is at this moment a content for Crafters "only", that's the best way to farm enemy mats ), i'm sure Gemstone farming is going to be a ShB Relic step as well.

Nuh, I don't think we need more incentives to do anything grindy. Those types of activities are for people who enjoy it for what it is. More incentives would only make people who don't like it feel like they have to do it.

They always add more rewards for hunt tokens just wait till the major patches.

Another dumb thread crying over rewards.
Optional content.Dont like the rewards then dont do it.Nobody is forcing you to do it.
Most those fates can be easily soloed so its not like you need an active community to do them.Devs already stated ages ago they were gradually going to add more rewards to the new fate system also.
As for hunts,server you're on must be dead because most servers have extremly active hunt community,especially the addition of crossworld hunting.It wont be dying any time soon either because of how many s and a ranks you need to kill to get the new mount.
And sooner or later gear upgrades will be tied into the nutsacks which will keep the hunt community really active and result in the usual early pulling like their lives are depeding on it.
