A warning to all new players about the "150 Quests" reward

[One Man Army]

Every few days when you open the quest log, one or more timed quests (24hours) appear that require you to pay black gems to finish otherwise you fail them.Once you fail 6 quests the "Complete 150 Quests" reward is no longer available until the servers are reset or you delete your character.

The cost of earning the 150quest reward is mighty high,requiring you to pay at the minimum 9400 Black gems (Real cost:$150+) to complete normally.

The only way to avoid them is to never open your quest log and blindly play, trying to get 150quests completed, which means you will miss on rewards that accelerate the game and thus take even longer to do, if at all.

Most ruins usually give 1 gem per fight early on, so don't expect to gather gems just by playing any time soon.

Your tips also are reason of "1 BG per ruin" problem. No donations=No BG.

My "tips" are not the problem, the problem is the very harsh and slow gameplay early on that makes people abandon the game fast, which means "no donations/buying".
Also giving only 1BG per ruin, when timed quests early on require 100+ BGs and later on 500+ BGs, means there is no way you can acquire enough on your own without failing quests.

I'm a new player as well, I searched and found out about this so I want to warn my fellow players about this practice, before paying like me for early quests only to find more and more of these quests appear very fast.

Regardless If they want to pay or not to advance is up to them.

One Man Army, that's so very true. It's just there is 50 more quests after you complete 150, so it's 200 in total and you will have to pay much more than 9000BG if you want to complete ALL of them which is crazy. (Some quests will ask you to pay thousands of black gems!).
Unfortunately this problem is unlikely to be solved. So in my case what I did was to ignore and fail these quests. Anyway I'm still playing this game as far as I'm enjoying its other positive sides ;)

Actually there is sequence of 3 quests 150->200->50. After you complete 150 quest, and become Suzerain starts 200 quest, then 50.

Indeed, 200quests, each asking for more and more gems, which you cannot really acquire in game in time to accomplish the quests. Pity, it's a decent game but I find this method very unethical.

hey got a starter pack key a friend gave me i give a crap about the game cause reviews i saw where bad so who want a starter dlc pack in exchange of any cards?

[Taller-Paul [iRiSHMAN]]

probably not a good idea to start a thread warning about this kind of thing, i recently done the same only to have my thread removed :(

[Tyr[A]nt]

so what are your suggestions on how i should play blindly? do i look up the lists of quests made by players who have played before me? even if i were to fail this quest, what would i be missing?

[Taller-Paul [iRiSHMAN]]

the reward is a steam achievement + 300k gold once you fail it your only option is to pay to complete the quest later on as someone mentioned in the reviews, basically by warning people in the forums about quests and what not although the game is "free to play" your taking away possible revenue the game creators can make by warning people who would ordinary feel under pressured to pay the gems so they can complete quests at hand they could pay them..... its complicated i don't want to risk getting banned saying too much as so far many posts ive made and threads dissapeared without reason even my game review dissapeared

Look at my sources links at the original post, they display the 150quests and the requirements that need to be completed,also there are hidden quests that only happen once you trigger a certain condition.
Look at the costs and what the end reward is and decide if you are willing to pay for it or ignore it. You can certainly play without the quest rewards. I'm just providing this information to other new players so they know what to expect.

Hi, I play in mylands for 4 years, to pass the first 150 quests players need buy 1500 BG.
Next, to pass the second 200 quests player need 40 000 BG but you need to do the quests and ranks quickly.
This is strategy game and requires thinking what quests should perform with what should be abandoned.
If you longer perform these tasks, the more you pay.

(if you see errors in my English - I'm sorry).

Thank you for this warning, I hate games that play like this. I'm not interested anymore. Hope they'll consider making the game fair and not entirely pay to win. $150 is crazy.

[doozos]

Thanks for the tip one man. Ignore the cowards/sycophants that try and scare you from telling the truth.

This is a five-star thread here. I was just looking at that quest and was wondering about any speed bumps I might hit along the way. How is this even considered a strategy game?
