  • Collossal Waste of Time

    So, my guild and I just got finished hurling ourselves at the brick wall called a Guild Boss. 30 minutes of pure torture, utter boredom, and absolutely zero creativity on the part of the game designers.

    and it got me thinking, just how much time do we, as players, waste on this game. So I started making a list, estimating times spent doing each . for the most part I believe it's accurate, with a +/- 5 minute for some.

    Dragon Inferno 20 minutes
    Bloody Inferno 30 minutes
    Guild Tree 15 minutes
    Treasure Maps 20 minutes
    Battleground 25 minutes
    Tanks 25 minutes
    Spire 20 minutes
    Tok 15 minutes
    MPD 15 minutes
    Dimensions 25 minutes
    Arena 30 minutes
    Guild Boss 30 minutes
    World Boss x2 50 minutes

    Just these events, which are all pretty much mandatory, add up to 320 minutes. That's 5 hours and 20 minutes of gameplay. Add in time waiting in the lobby for various events and you are pushing 6 hours. That's not even including the hours we have to spend for :
    Astrals, Sylph Arena, Solo Arena, Guild Blessing Wheel, Wilds Hunting, Amethyst Mine, and Blitzing. Oh, don't forget 4 Atoll Bosses and Sylph Farming if you're bored. This is all a good 2-3 hours of additional playing. Not including all the various clicks and such for all the minor **** not worth mentioning.

    I know I'm forgetting a few things, as I've just spent 2 hours straight online staring at the same old tired graphics.

    if you aren't VIP and want more energy, add another 2 hours you have to be logged in.

    Three times a week, add another 20-60 minutes for Guild Battles, and an extra hour once a month for Class Wars.

    Hell, to stay competative in this game, you really have to dedicate about 9 hours (or more) of your daily life to this game. It's another full-time job. And you're paying them to do it.


    what the game designers really need to do is remove many of these events. WB, DI, BI, atoll boss and the new guild boss are all copies of the same thing. remove 3 of them, use the new GB points as a new reward system to let us buy what we want of the prizes from all the different events.

    Get rid of BG and Tanks, ToK can go too.

    soo many of these events were fine when we only had Level 1 wings and clothes to worry about. But with all the additions to our characters, they have really become tired, unplayable, or just obsolete.

    I'm beginning to wonder why We're all still here....

      time actually takes a lot less for some of it. depending how strong u and ur team is. ( I am a free player with 346k br)
      . this is what it takes for me in some of it.
      1. bloody inferno under 7 min.
      2. maps under 10 min.
      3. mp under 8 min.
      4. guild boss 15 min.
      5. dimension under 15min. ( I am still doing basic)
      6. gb under 2 min ( yeah not possible for all)

      some of the feature I dont even bother with. like bg, only click tree if I notice it and online. dont do arena (time zone issue). and as for altar and blitz mostly while I am sleep ( put toon in altar then sleep, wake up put toon in blitz leave for work)

      its really a matter of prospective. your personal choice where u want to put priority in. but yeah agreed they need to be more creative.

                Wartune losing people from exhausting syndrom ^^;
                as long as one event replaced the other (the mpd with the level), we could follow
                now we have to make choice and it can be frustrating
                RETIRED. Too much bugs, too time consuming, too few listening from Wartune

                      I don't do everything every day. Every day I get group arenas done, dimension done, 1 wb, 1 BG, Dragon Invasion, Treasure Hunt, and ToK. I don't have the time for anything else. I would love to do the Guild Beast thing, but my guild master isn't online when I am, which makes it impossible for me to do it.

                      When I have days off, I'll also do a 2nd BG and Spire as well. Not wasting my life doing more then that.

                          We did that, that way its "only" 15 minutes.

                          But we found an easy solution: dont do BI. It's a poor man's WB anyway.

                          The game needs 2 features desperately:

                          1.) Count how many times you do an event. When you did it a given number of times (50 or 100) you don't have to do it again. You can just claim the FULL reward (the highest level you could reach) with one click.

                          2.) A way to exchange all the obsolete rewards we get in the above events.

                          If you play less than 6 hours a day, there is no way to stay competitve.

                            From BI you can make 5kk gold + at max, usually between 4kk and 4.5kk if not that lucky (depends on rolls ofc) and considering the fact i semi afk the whole stupid thing, its better than wb for me
                            THERE IS NO JUSTICE, THERE'S JUST ME.

                              think whatever u like. my team consist 2 knight (1 same br as me another 500k+) and 1 mage 500k+. whats makes u think takes time? mobs. we each attack 1 mob same time. hell lots faster than attacking 1 at a time. then boss comes use attack rune with delph boss done. now why the hell killing 6 stage gonna take more than 7 min?
