    Riqi-Tio's Ingredient List- Wondrous Tales for Gatherers and/or Crafters?

    If Khloe in Idylshire taught us anything it's that Miqo'te kittens are fond of having us do stuff to put stickers in books. Riqi-Tio is one such Miqo'te kitten with the dream of being an alchemist. Let us help Riqi-Tio in her quest to bring grass potions and mushroom powder throughout the first.... and perhaps... actually brew effective potions in the process!

    This could easily be crafter/gather Wondrous Tales-esque content where we're asked to gather and/or craft specific ingredients or gather items. Perhaps these items require us to speak to Riqi for a "buff" to find the ingredient somewhere in the world. Or perhaps Riqi-Tio may not know the exact names of these ingredients so you'd have to kinda of try to figure it out based on a description.

    Just a random thought that I decided to share... =p

    "Then what is magic for?" Prince Lir demanded wildly. "What use is wizardry if it cannot save a unicorn?"
    Schmendrick did not turn his head. With a touch of sad mockery in his voice, he said, "That's what heroes are for."

    I do wonder how they're going to manage Khloe's stuff in future, because it's a bit weird coming up through the game now. It starts off only offering rewards for 50-60 content and upgrades to the full range when you get a character to the level cap. That's going to be a long stretch where the book isn't valid for a lot of your daily activities if you can't get anything for level 70-80 content until you have a level 90 character.

    Of course, it's also frustrating the other way around if it unlocks earlier and you're level 70 but half the book challenges for the week are 80+ content.

    So either it needs another grade of challenges or we need a new bingo card challenge for the upper levels.

    I use it as essentially another way of farming a free map most weeks. At level 80, a competent player can solo at least one of the extremes that pops up on the card. Add in 80/expert roulettes, and usually one of the alliance raids for fun (I know I know I'm weird) and it's a chore I can usually knock out without much effort.

    Yesterday I got it done in a single session of Seiryu Ex dog farming.

    I’d like to see a variety of books to choose from. Don’t care what they name them, but essentially one for 1-50, 50-70, and then one 70-80 (eventually 70-90).

    Give them better rewards for harder content like how treasure maps work, or make it a thing where you can get all the books each week,

    If there needs to be some kinda gate to ensure low level content is done, make it that you have to clear book 1 to get book 2, then 3. (Maybe a redeemable token so you can choose when to start a harder book?) Or hell, allow the 18 man raid coins to buy the books.
