  1. I don't know if the Valrei Quests have ever been debugged or generally looked at since they were implemented, because a lot of the issues we have had with them are persistent and (from my impression) very easy to fix. It would be great if someone could take at look the Valrei Mission Creation Engine to avoid some these issues : Giving items that can't be picked up to Avatars. A few good examples being boats of any kind, container items that can only be pushed after creation (fountains, large barrels/chests, trash heaps), or generally any item that players have no ability to activate and 'give' to avatars. This seems to be just an issue with the parameters for 'random item to be given' selection. If we could just eliminate all the items that can't be held in an inventory it would make things much better. Sacrificing things that are impossible to gather during the mission timeframe. For example we currently have two missions on Serenity for Fo and Vynora, Fo is asking for 500 white-spotted flowers (the rarest flower type that many players go months without ever seeing) and Vynora is asking for 500 Lavender flowers (which are currently out of season). Missions in the past have also asked for 50 Foals to be sacrificed. Wurm pregnancy times vary from 105 to 231 hours, and missions only last 72 hours. With the foals I realize that we most likely do have 50 on the server at least at any given time... its still impossible to breed immediately for this mission if we by chance don't. But I would wager we have maybe 100 White-Spotted flowers in all of Serenity. Both held in inventories and growing in the wild. Non-standard phrasing or otherwise unclear wording for mission parameters. I think right now the biggest example of this would be the '100 Steps' measurement in the Temple Mission. No one has been able to begin constructing a Temple yet and I'm willing to admit its possible thats because no one has figured out what a 'step' is. Another example would be the mission to give a statuette to an Avatar. The mission always describes the statuette as simply that, however the Avatar always needs one of the five statuettes we can currently create (Fo, Vynora, Magranon, Libila, and the plain one). Right now players must make all five and visit the Avatar to find out which it needs. I once completed a mission for the Fo Avatar where he apparently needed a Libila Statuette. The Epic Mission System is the primary reason I play on Epic and I thoroughly enjoy it the majority of the time. But it ruins a lot of the enjoyment of the system when we receive what have become known as the 'Impossible' Valrei missions. Most of the issues could be debugged fairly quickly if some attention was given to the project.
  2. Mostly curiosity on this one. Have the Valrei spawns been coded so that they always appear near someone or some town? I ask this because Chaos is one of the large servers but having spawns appear on top of me on three separate occasions is stretching credulity too far for it to be just random placement. Also HoM is a big deed but we get near daily incursions by Valrei creatures again suggesting that the placement is not random. If it was done this way then why? I really pity any starter town on Chaos if it becomes a target for nogumps. It also severely discourages players being able to just wander around the server. Again new players, probably without mounts caught in this situation are guaranteed to be dead meat. I like having the Valrei creatures on Chaos but I'm in an established deed with a lot of resources available to me.
  3. Hello, I find myself here again to report on some more dubious circumstances regarding Valrei. Libila has once again claimed glorious victory and saw fit to bestow upon her followers a gift of Body Stamina. This gift only applied to those individuals who were online at the time. I'm reporting this as a bug because, as I recall, when Wurm won, all players online or otherwise received a hit to their faith. It seems to me the intention is to reward those players who belong to the winning Goddess's kingdom, however only those who were online reaped the fruits of this labor. As someone who feverishly works to complete missions (High Astronomer Represent), it is a disservice to me, and all others who worked on these goals, to see Libila win as I check my twitter for updates on her progress, check chat logs to see what our reward was, only to get online and not receive it. It seems to me that bugs like this are the biggest discouraging factor for the Epic missions as a whole. Thanks for reading, -Zoots
  4. Recently, I've taken to watch the wonderful antics on Valrei. It would seem that the gods occasionally do not receive the assistance they are supposed to get from missions done on the Epic Cluster. As of right now, Libila has received help from Elevation and does not appear to be on a difficult tile. However, on Affliction, we completed the mission to help her. It never showed up on the twitter feed, and it appears it didn't assist her in moving. I believe MR had a similar issue during the last Scenario, but I am not privy to that. To me this seems to be a bug so I'm reporting it. I would greatly appreciate hearing back on this, as I know missions are a big part of epic. -Zoots
