The choices have always been EXP and Luck and luck is a good alternate choice because it let people who were maxed out or high ranking to be able to get luck since they were unable to get luck without donating an unviable amount of gold.

But what happens when someone already has a large amount of luck and may not want exp? I suggest alternate options for rewards. Plat? Gold maybe? A Stat Scroll ( exp for final points of BWIAS is around 150-200k which is about the average exp someone will give you if you had chosen exp anyway so thats good too.)

It is just so that there can be more flexibility on what is given out. I'm not sure what admin can actually generate to give out but I for one would like platinum as a reward. Admin can choose the amount but since there is no way to currently get plat other than mining since PVP pretty much does not exist.

Even though LQs and other events are fun, id like to get something i can use out of them so can choose participating over mining.

Aw what a bummer.
At least when Aranock is under attack and the streets are unsafe, mine 3 will be a sanctuary.

I guess there is a way around this, but we would have to ask the elder gods. Rolling Eyes
Also, let us know if you have any suggestions on how "rare" items should be given out for LQs.

Is it the super rare torch with +10 light mod that never extinguishes?


So lucky that Kane

It's a torch that gives the wearer ability to see in the dark, an infra vision torch with +10 light. So stealth doesn't get affected, that is why it's the best item in the game.

There is usually a room full of alternate prizes (actually there is two at different locations) They arnt always full of something exciting to hand out but staff have been allowed to request what they want deposited there within reason, alternate prizes for LQ's is possible even if it's some amount of platinum. On occasion uniques are even made. Although no matter the prize there is a need not to flood the market by giving it out too regularly

Imps can also go further and bestow honorary description titles and appearance changes amongst other things, or team with builders to design prize rooms or winner only hangout areas which could even include fighting for the monthly ownership right to a mansion where your recall can be set too etc. There is a lot of room for imaginative use of the commands available to staff and even more so for team work between different tiers of staff where more commands are open to the collective.

In summary there is every reason for everyone and anyone to get involved in an LQ, you never know when you will miss something you didn't know you'd be desperate for later on

One thing (and most important thing) about LQs is that it builds community (Which lacks at times, in basically every online game)

PVP should be disabled, and people are supposed to be working together to defeat shiva's armies.

Reward is community and staff embracing and hugging each other, in order for the safety of aranock.

Another thing it's good for is flexing your muscles to see how powerful your character is relative to others.

it's also supposed to be fun and challenging. Personally i like to see LQs with conditional rewards based on how well the team performs.

Perhaps ill host something where the rules/rewards are set pre-LQ so everoyne knows whats going on, however, i feel everyone would die a miserable death and probably rage at me.
