More Ticket uses

[NoxMortus]

Once a player has maxed out the skin quests and is a daily player, the very real issue arises that a surplus of tickets exists.

I am starting each week off with 9-15+ tickets leftover from the previous weeks cycle and is only continuing to grow.

Game needs another ticket "dump" mechanism or to reduce the amount of tickets being awarded through daily quests

Thanks, I'm aware of this problem, I plan to fix it in the upcoming update 1.8

Do you think if I just increase the amount of levels in the weekly contest it will fix this problem? or you have different idea in mind

[NoxMortus]

* More levels is an easy fix. Could also have challenges that are actually challenging (i know these were downgraded due to popular request), which offer higher reward and higher risk for single use tickets (no do-over).

* Increase the amount of Chapters (skins) quest chain - another easy temporary fix.

* Add different tiers to weekly challenge; eg, 15 tickets to win low tier, 25 tickets medium, 35 tickets high tier. With rewards that scale accordingly and as a means to incentivise people to to "hoard for a week or two" for the higher reward chance.

* Perhaps an exchange market - eg. 3 tickets for 1 egg

Interesting ideas, will think about it, thanks a lot! :)

yep but is only for you. the game is made to end in like 3 or 4 weeks(2 months tops). the daily/week things is just to hook some money.

((medals, quests, contest, pet , event) all of then dosen't have a good balance(time) with the game and because of them the game was slowed down)

now with pets consuming medals we need more tickets(a lot). to get to the point you are.
and have medals to upgrade the medal shop.(even if the ticket gives 5 medals i think will not be enough).

what you need in your game now? to have some progression.

could be a infinite contest that gives specific things. like. contest for each item. medals, eggs, quests, food. and you choose in what to spend the tickets.(and obviously more tickets for everyone, speeds up the middle game slot8/lastzone and so, )

How do you get so many tickets? I only discovered the weekly ones last week. But I'm missing a ticket to get the boxes. Yesterday it said: Ends in 1 day and 16 hours, today everything was at 0 and it starts again. So you don't get any boxes at all.

If you have the VIP status you will get 2 tickets per day (=14) and at least 6 tickets with the weekly quests, thus at least 20 tickets per week. Often you will get some more tickets from the treasures of the weekly quests.

[HaggiBear]

I do not have VIP status.
But yesterday I finished the 19, so only one open, with an end in 1 day and 16 hours. So why did it suddenly end and I couldn't do the last ticket this morning?

[NoxMortus]

@OZI
a combination of RNG and upgrading the daily chest rewards (as that ranks up, you get better chests and rewards which increases your drop rates).

I would not reduce the fishing tickets, we need the tokens for upgrading pets.

I personally would change the fishing weekly tournament. Maybe make it endless.

instead of having 3 legendary quest for completing split up the rewards, and add a few more. Complete 5, get a rare chest, Complete 10, get a Legendary quest, complete 15, get an Epic chest, complete 20, you get 2 Legendary chests. So you still give out 3 Legendary quests for 20 tickets, but also an extra rare and epic. Also, This means people will not have to have 20 tickets or nothing, If they can only play 15 tickets during the duration, they can choose to just get up to 15 clears, or wait for 20 to get more rewards next week.

Then, once finished, you start back at zero completions, and can run them again for the same rewards. Time does not reset, only the clears and rewards, so if someone has 30 tickets in a week, then can full clear, and do another 10, for an extra rare and Legendary chest.

Why not just a 2nd, or 3rd treasure hunt? Like normal a timer and if u reach 60/60 not in time... ♥♥♥♥ happens. Otherwise u can save it for next time. That would be the easiest way.... Or best would be anyways, that we could reset it, by ourself.

how about just a gacha mechanic where you can use the ticket for some sort of vending machine that has a chance like:
1% egg
9% 1 hour bonus gold
30% 1 hour bonus silver coins
30% etc
etc

That is nice but I think most people would just like to convert ticket->3 medals because of its many uses

So I didn't manage to get the tickets for the weekly competition together in one week again. Even though I played every day, that's rubbish!

[NoxMortus]

@haggi - i start the week with 20+ tickets and am playing F2P. Trying to understand where you are failing here. Because, if you are new to the game, it will be difficult because of your quest board level

what level is your (daily) quest board?
what are you spending the tickets on?
