Keening Motes. Please?

in TERA PC - General Discussion
I think i speak for everyone here. Can we keep the 100% drop on Keening motes on Island of Dawn? With the current triple drop event, the keening motes drop always. It makes things go so much faster over there. A good QoL temporary addition that I'm sure all of us would like it to be implemented permanently.

So, @Spacecats @Halrath @Denommenator @seandynamite Can we keep the 100% drop on Keening Motes pls?

    Just to say, the reason we don't have 100% drop on these motes in the first place is because our region has double-vanguard rewards and double vanguard items compared to other regions. That was the sort of trade-off that resulted in our regular situation. So this weekend aside, I'm not sure if I'd want to lose the doubling aspect just to gain this instead.

    I think they could make a very bit more. 100% is too much. Those who do iod every day don't have issues with kills. Iod idea is killing BAMs. With keen its way too easy.

    But I think 100% would definitely good for healer classes. And this can be implemented as buff sort of gg.

    Let's not and say we did, for all the reasons Counterpoint mentioned.

    It's hard to say which one is better, double VG or 100% Keen motes. But wanting both is too broken.

    Personally .. i find the most tedious part of IoD farming the running in between bams. My suggestion would be to reduce the number of BAMs you need to kill to just 3, but give the BAMs 3 times the HP. But i must say that the 100% Keening mote drop on EU makes things a lot more fun.

    Another suggestion would be to add metamorphic tokens to the IoD token shop but remove the item XP from the quest. That way BAM farming is something you'd do if you are lacking materials or gold, but just for that. It feels odd to me that i gain just as much item XP from farming as i do from dungeons.

    Dont VG credits suck anyway? I mean ppl do IOD for the mats/tokens right?

    Or am i missing somethign about VG credits?
  • ValiantCorvusValiantCorvus ✭✭✭
    Well.....

    All I can say is that it's pretty damn awesome having keening mote active 100% of the time.

    It's not just the VG credits, it's every reward that was (don't know if it still is) doubled compared to EU.

    All i know is that on other regions the vanguard credits have x3 more value in gold even with the double bonus on NA because the shop was not updated yet.. and on top of that they also have 100% keen motes so this makes no sense at all. And the enchanting materials are no longer tradeable which means that sooner or later we will swim in a sea of non tradeable enchanting materials.

    And for example there is this crafting potion that costs 1.5k vanguard points and it restores 4k crafting points but it sells for 11k at the broker while niveots cost 400 vanguard points and sell for 2k gold when on NA the best money maker is the crystal niveot which costs 400 vanguard points and sells for 350g or less so that is almost 1/3 gold income even with the double bonus added...

    So how is NA better and why we should not receive any improvements? I am puzzled.

    Receiving more stuff from dailies make your progress faster, that's the benefit.
  • VirtualONVirtualON ✭✭✭
    How does earning less gold make you progress faster? All of the Vg reward items are not required for the actual enchanting.

    No, Island of Dawn missions are easy enough without keening dawn motes.
