An Update on MotMG Event chests

[Mynamerr]

Crosspost from reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/RotMG/comments/6tlhqz/an_update_on_motmg_event_chests/

Hello there everyone,

After reading through the feedback that you guys provided, we wanted to give you an update on the future Event Chests for MotMG. A huge shoutout to those of you out there who gave constructive criticism on how to improve Event Chests - these are the comments which help making RotMG better in the long run!

###Improving Tokens Quantity & Adding Bag Drops

The first issue brought up was how Event Chests were much less rewarding than simply farming Oryx Horde for tokens. While we did intend for Oryx Horde to be the most profitable in terms of Tokens, we also realize that needing to choose between “farming endlessly the optimal event” vs “doing a few dungeon runs for fun but getting shafted on the Event Chest rewards” is not a super fun choice to make.

The amount of Tokens dropped in Event Chests will be increased depending on the Dungeon difficulty & average clear time, and we will also be adding Moss/Stone/MotMG Bags as direct drops for more dangerous / longer dungeons.
###Where are the MotMG UTs - Adding old UT Reskins

One common complaint we’ve had during Winter is that we were making way too many UT reskins. Winter Bow, Winter Sword, Winter Dagger, Winter Butter Knife and Winter Pocket Warmer, you name it we had it. A lot of you shared the feeling that UT reskins were cluttering the game and artificially inflating the UT pool by adding… more of the same, just with another sprite. With that in mind, we decided to not make UT reskins for MotMG.

What we failed to take into account was that a lot of people who never said anything back then… well, they actually like UT reskins. And they’re disappointed that there are none, especially since MotMG historically had quite a few of them. We kind of went 100 to 0 here, and we probably should have found some middle ground and released a few UT reskins without necessarily go overboard like in Winter - that goes for any future big Events as well, not only for MotMG.

For now however, we will be adding old MotMG UT Reskins to some Event Chests:

• Bow of the Morning Star
• Amethyst Dagger
• Robe of Summer Solstice
• Ring of the Burning Sun
• Staff of the Rising Sun
• Thousand Suns Spell
• Sword of Illumination
• If any old MotMG loot is missing from this list, please do comment so we can add it there!

###Not everyone cares about Cosmetics - Adding Pet Food & Improving Gear Drops

Another issue that was underlined by a lot of complaints is that… well not everyone cares about Skins or Pet Stones. Some of you just want to get more items, gear up your characters and feed your pet until it becomes fatter than somebody’s mom over the internet.

Going onward, we will start adding Pet Food to MotMG Event Chests as well as increase the drop rates of UTs/STs. To increase Cosmetics variety, we’ll also be adding Mystery Skins Unlocker to the Event Chests so that people who never had the opportunity to get older skins get to join on the fun!

Note that we’ve decided against adding Event Whites to the drop list. Event Whites are unrelated to MotMG, are hard to get and dropping those are supposed to be a challenge - a lot of players voiced their concerns about leechers and making Event Whites too easy to acquire if they were in MotMG Event Chests.
###MFW it’s MotMG and no fun’s allowed Feelsbadman.jpg - Adding Event Items to the mix

If there’s one thing we wanted and will always want - it’s for players to have fun. Sometimes the grind gets tedious and you just want to goof around with some friends or guildies, and so far our Event Chests have only been a Mighty Quest for Epic Loot (rip).

Here are some items that we’ll be adding to the Event Chests:

• Beach Balls!
• Sand Pails!
• Cocktails!
• Beach Zone Keys!
• Totally a white bag!
• Any other item you wanna see here? Please share your ideas, and do not worry - these items are on top of the regular ones (adding more items to an Event Chests does not lower the overall chances to get the good loot).

###Reminder: Weekly Event Chests are supposed to be weaker than Week-End Event Chests

Weekly Event Chests last longer and are usually faster dungeons to run, so do not expect as great rewards from them as the ones during the Week-End (past Event Chests excluded).

Can I just say you guys are amazing. I mean look at this comprehensive response to community feedback. You guys are truly amazing and I cannot believe how much more involved you are in the game. Thank you so much! I was a little disappointed with chest drops, but that did not keep myself and others from calling pups and clearing them haha. Thank you so much for what you guys are doing and please do keep it up!

I think the work you guys put into letting us players have fun is truly amazing. I remember when it was the Wildshadow era, and everyone was like “Whoa this game is so cool!” But when Kabam took over, everyone was hoping for more from them, and they did, but Kabam died in a year or 2. Then when you guys took over, there has been no stop to what you guys can achieve. You guys raised the ceiling even higher than what anyone expected or anticipated. You even made a dungeon quite a bit harder than the Shatters itself! It bugs me when i see people still ranting about how Kabam is better, because everything that Kabam has done doesn’t compare to near as much as what you guys have done. Think: One year with everyone in the RotMG Deca crew, content-wise, has outnumbered Kabam in its 4 or so years.
