[DE]Rebecca 187,234 Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Hello Tenno! We are making changes to the way Bounties reward you! This new system is a take on the 'AABC' rotation system we have in endless missions, but applied to Bounties using the Common, Uncommon, and Rare rewards. Maybe you heard about this on the Devstream 100 - you probably did. Lots of people have been asking 'WHEN' for this, and I'm happy to say it's coming with tomorrow's Update on PC (which also launches Operation: Plague Star)! Console Tenno, I do not have a set ETA yet but we'll let you know. Read through this to familiarize yourself with what's coming. First and most noticeable: You now get a reward for every stage of the Bounty completed! Yup. Pretty simple.Second and more technical: The tier of reward you get is determined by how many stages are in the given Bounty. The Common/Uncommon/Rare tier are signified by colour in the reward manifest Bronze/Silver/Gold. 3 Stage Bounties: First reward: Common Second reward: Common or Uncommon Third reward: Common, Uncommon, or Rare 4 Stage Bounties: First reward: Common Second reward: Common or Uncommon Third reward: Common, Uncommon Fourth reward: Common, Uncommon, or Rare5 Stage Bounties: First reward: Common Second reward: Common or Uncommon Third reward: Common, Uncommon Fourth reward: Common, Uncommon, or Rare Fifth reward: Common, Uncommon, or Rare Third: We have slightly re-balanced the quantities of some of the rewards as we tested numerous Bounties with these changes. Right now this only applies to select items. Plains of Eidolon specific reward quantities are untouched (i.e it could be possible to get 25 x Breath of the Eidolon in a single 5 Stage Bounty or 10 6 Cetus Wisps in a 5 Stage Bounty). Finally: Thanks for your patience everyone! As you would imagine overall this system has been significantly more rewarding in our tests! Let us know what you think once it's live, and the notes will have final change information on quantities as we go through final fine-tuning tonight. Link to post Share on other sites
ChatNinja 501 Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Awesome, now redoing bounties for breath of the eidelon isn't a slog Link to post Share on other sites
ThatOddDeer 528 Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 We need another way to get Breath of the Eidolon. Even if its similar to Cetus Wisp in pacing of acquisition. Link to post Share on other sites

PsychoSunshine 129 Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Can we take relics off of the drop tables, at least for high-level bounties? It feels horrible to feel like I've wasted 30 minutes of my time for a relic many of us don't need. Link to post Share on other sites

So far, only the latest prime access relics are in these tables, so when the next one roles around you have something to farm to cut down on RNG. If you get a relic, it is the one you are looking for. Link to post Share on other sites

Of course with appropriately weighted math for chance and reward quantities. 3 Stage Bounties: 1st reward: Common 2nd reward: Common/Uncommon 3rd reward: Uncommon/Rare 4 Stage Bounties: 1st reward: Common 2nd reward: Common/Uncommon 3rd reward: Common/Uncommon 4th reward: Uncommon/Rare 5 Stage Bounties: 1st reward: Common 2nd reward: Common/Uncommon 3rd reward: Common/Uncommon 4th reward: Uncommon/Rare 5th reward: Uncommon/Rare Link to post Share on other sites
Sunny_Skies 62 Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Good QOL change. Now it should feel more rewarding to keep re-doing bounties. Didn't care for doing a long bounty just to end up with a small sum of credits. Link to post Share on other sites

Melkia 437 Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 I'm sorry, maybe i got this wrong, but does this mean we get from 3 to 5 times more rewards from bounties? °_° Wow... thanks! =) Link to post Share on other sites

If you get a relic, it is the one you are looking for. This aspect is not lost on me, not even when I was writing the comment, but when I'm doing high-level bounties, I'm after rewards I can use to progress in the systems introduced in the plains. Even the kuva reward feels rewarding. There are plenty of other ways to get relics, too. The relic is also in the same tier of reward as the thing I actually want: the Eidolon lens. This makes the fact I got a relic sting even more. Link to post Share on other sites
