Predefined credo quests
We all know credo quest randomity is broken. Please consider remaking them, removing all randomity, removing increasing quest count and so on. It's really insane to have 40 quests with over 5k things to do. But if everybody would have the same exact quests for the same credo, then it wouldn't be so annoying. Majority of games have constant quests with constant rewards. But this game went the opposite direction and make it punish the player in every random way imaginable. I am pretty sure devs actually have idea of how much time it takes to run around, do pointless things to have random reward and random punishment later on. It doesn't feel even a little rewarding, and it's worse than a chore. This really needs to be changed. I am sure players wouldn't mind doing 20-50 quests if they would have specified tasks and rewards. Delivery to rocks/trees could be replaced with delivery to nearest speaking quest entity. Please remove all randomity from it. We players don't like it, and there is absolutely no reason to have it so.

You must accept the fact that hearthling cannot be jack of all trades.

Re: Predefined credo quests
Getting all credos on a character is currently possible though, difficult to be sure but still possible. If the devs didn't want us to have all the credos on one character they have a lot of options. Straight up capping number of credos on one char or ordering them into different branches and forcing us to choose one comes to mind.shubla wrote:You must accept the fact that hearthling cannot be jack of all trades.

Re: Predefined credo quests
I firmly agree that the goal of achieving all credos on a single character should be the work of months, and in fact can be a goal a character seeks the entire world without ever successfully completing. I really don't see any reason to change the way credos work currently. They're punishing, to be sure, but they're definitely a long-term goal and something worth trying to achieve.
This "I can't get them all and it makes me want to whine like a little bitch" attitude people are throwing is getting fucking old.

Sevenless: We already know real life has some pretty shitty game mechanics, it's why we're here instead.
Avu: The end is near it has finally come to pass: I agree with Lunarius...
Shubla: There are also other reasons to play this game than to maximize your stat gain.

Re: Predefined credo quests
The only problem with doing credos I have at the moment, that RNG can be really dickish with You. I was doing Mystic for 2 months only because abandoning or not, I was getting repeatedly "EXPERIENCE ACIENT WITHDROW" or "EXPERIENCE HEARTH OF WOODS" etc. and those trigger twice a month maybe?
I'm almost okay with the rest.

Re: Predefined credo quests
Keep in mind that I didn't made this thread to whine about credo being slow to finish. I made this thread to remove RNG from credos. How hard they will be after that is up to devs.

Re: Predefined credo quests
RNG sucks, mostly when you get impossible quest and only way to deal with it = abandon it
