Sortie Rewards from PoE Dev Build

[Voltage]

I understand these are subject to change, but who actually considers 4,000 Kuva as a worthy sortie reward? That is a single roll from 3 missions. I am quite dumbfounded as to how someone can reason this. Can it please be at least 10,000? 3 missions should grant you at least 3 rolls, especially sorties.

You can get 5,000 from a Kuva Flood with Kavat and Booster. 4,000 is a slap in the face for 3 Sortie missions.

True, but consider the following :

Farming Kuva sucks.

That if you run boosters or farm alot of kuva  Im happy if i get 2k in a week or so.

Lets be honest here, sortie rewards have never been very good or balanced, just think back the 3 nitain as a reward.  It's also why we've been calling for 'token system' rather than rewards so we can get what we want.

I do agree it needs to be higher though, at the very least it should be enough for one maxed cost re-roll imo, which is what just shy of 4k kuva isn't it.

 

edit: re-read in the morning....should have been 2 max rerolls at roughly 4k each... must learn to comment less when falling asleep.

Just because it sucks does not mean DE cannot improve.

10k kuva from sortie would be peferable especially since it seems to be an uncommon reward.

[WindigoTG]

A chance to get 4k kuva for doing basically nothing? Count me in!

Even 2k would've been better than actually do a single kuva mission.

[Hypernaut1]

Ummm, I'm excited about it......

Sorties are easy enough at it is. I rarely ever get even 2k Kuva in one run. But hey, if you guys can get them to increases it, cool. I won't complain.

There is an innuendo here, but I am kinda too sleepy to find it.

I personally would prefer a Kuva drop with a Kuva tradable item + a little bit higher quantity of the drop, but... You know 4k kuva from sortie skips me between 4 and 5 runs without boosters, kavats and suicidal pug compilations.

At least it provides another source, so those who are bored of/fed up with Kuva Siphons can farm it more passively.

This. 

I find Kuva farming so boring and sooooo monotonous. Getting 4000 at least once or twice through a week is really nice

The last thing we need is another common, easily-obtainable resource to clutter up the resource table. Players can easily get 4K Kuva by doing 4 Kuva floods, and Kuva missions are reset every hour, making the resource readily available. We should be rewarded more than just Kuva for spending up to an hour on sorties under the worst case scenario of defense and assassination with ludicrous conditions.

I cannot fathom DE's thinking that has gone into adding Kuva to the sortie rewards table - it's neither hard to get nor exciting for players. I was already against adding the sculpture to the table and pushed for more than just 4K endo. If DE is adamant about including Kuva, it should be on the order of 10-20K at least. Remember, these are not guaranteed rewards - RNG decides how few of us gets the Legendary Core and how many of us get Anasa. On the bright side, I'm glad that DE has taken out the lens. Hopefully those won't be needed anymore or can be obtained elsewhere.

Reward the players for their time and hard work. Make the rewards exciting. Don't be stingy. Thanks.

You really like to use those words dont you?

[Airwolfen]

I was REALLY hoping they would not pull this. A single roll is not much. Especially since you can get way more Kuva in the same time period.

kuva in sorties ais actually quite commonly requested, at least here on the forums.

as for the lenses, they're being moved to cetus/plains, supposedly as bounty rewards or something like that

It really is a slap in the butt-cheek. You get rewarded 1 roll for a riven for doing the once-per-day sortie. Sad reward.

I actually like to express what I am saying in a way that has a physical feeling. I cannot use profanity, so that’s as close as you are getting to “how it feels to get 4k Kuva from sorties”.

[armedpoop]

4k kuva for 3 missions that offer one reward per day is about as bad as getting a lens is currently, so this is par for the course honestly.

Dope. No more damn lenses! 

They won't give us Endless Kuva at the queens fortress, Kuva is fine. Better than the 200 lens I have.

Kuva is indeed dayum fine and delicious. But the ways of acquisition for kuva are the opposite.

[Mintaro]

More kuva is always appreciated 10k to 4k i am fine either way.

Well it's a start. But considering OP is "Mr. Tradeframe" I get why he made the thread and wants more kuva. Lol
