This morning i was in a fret myself to get 5k SB. I only had ~2k so i put my GB up and all of the gems I could find. Then i went to monkey business and sold skulls for 3k SB. 5k as an up front cost is not a lot, especially compared to 1000 SB for every time you want to progress. If you need 30 residue that could mean 30k SB. Also i'm on mobile and not sure if any of this makes sense. But sadly no support. Join contests and stuff if you need assistance. Sell food or shards.

As I said before, it should NOT BE EASY, but the starter quest SHOULD be attainable for everyone. Not everyone will finish it next week or next year.

Just because a person picks up the starter quest doesnt mean that person will blast through the quests to the end in a month. In many MMOs a quest line can be SUPER HARD, but picking it up is a snap of the fingers, but yeah, that might be too easy. Even so, it doesnt mean everyone gets an easy path or hand hold through the rest of it. Im not asking for a freebie, all Im asking for is an alternative, either make the SB requirement cheaper OR give more options.

They didnt even ask if 5k was too much for some people.

AGAIN, the quests leading to the end should be nightmarishly hard, sure. It should take time, it should take effort, it should take dedication, it should be so frustrating it makes us want to tear every last hair out of our bodies. Thats why they gave us no time limit on it. But hurting people financially for a starter quest? Seriously? Why is that necessary? Why should being able to actually GET the quest hurt so much for so many? Im really asking that, btw. Is there ANY GOOD REASON why it HAS to be 5K? A legitimate, concrete good reason to ask for 5k of peoples saved/hard earned SB? Saying "Cuz x number of people have that kind of cash" is no a viable reason. If so many have that much, then is it really a challenge? Why no 20kSB? Make it REALLY HARD...Im sure that would have gone over great. Wouldnt that be reasonable to some, but more challenging to others? Its not the fact that its 5k so much as the fact they are asking for a MONETARY amount of money from players who obviously cannot obtain it within the time allotted without another alternative at ALL!

As I suggested earlier, which obviously got skipped, why cant there be "Dreamboat, level 7, and one of the Following: SB option/GB Option X amount of items" Option? Its still challenging from any aspect but offers a broader choice.

Mad, poor does not mean slow. And taking time on the quests does not mean not dedicated. I dont care if it takes me 5 years to finish, but GETTING the quest has no real need to cost a lot of SB. I do know, that I and many others, worked hard with our limited means to get the SB, only to have a NO ALTERNATIVE "Pay or miss out" quest to START.

I stand by my argument, I think its unreasonable to ask so much SB for just a starter quest. This quest was to combat RNG, but putting some players out of reach of this amount basically tells them "Sorry, next year maybe" or "Well you can still roll RNG in explore!"

"They didnt even ask if 5k was too much for some people."


They didn't need to ask.
With the mechanics and options the game offers it is very possible for everyone to get 5k SB within 19 days from scratch.
The game, with all it's rules and possiblities gives you the means to obtain 5k SB within this time span.

No support.

Play some Serengeti Shuffle or sell some carcasses/spare toys and you'll get 5K no sweat. You don't have to pick up the quest right as it drops, you have half a month left still.

This quest should absolutely NOT be attainable by every single player on the first day the quest is out. It costs no real money, but does require time, effort, and dedication. It is not a frolic in the daisies, it is an EPIC QUEST. If you cannot earn the money this month, then prepare ahead of time for next year. If you cannot be patient enough to wait a year to start an epic once-in-a-lifetime quest, then stick to the casual content. This quest is not for casual players.
End of line.

I disagree Daris.

Dreamboat and Lvl 7 is perfectly reasonable and requires time and effort to achieve.

5ksb is unnecessary.

The quest is still going to be epic. That is for sure. As it should be.

Or is it going to be a game breaker for you if a person thats been playing for only 6 months get to have a chance to pick it up?

A player logging in last week wont get it....thats for sure.

Dreamboat takes 3-4 days to achive, level 7 I usually get to within first day of kinging my king - not too high of requirements, TBH.

The quest is MEANT to not be taken by anyone. What you cant understand, Navnløs, just fail to see again and again, that it is MEANT to be hard to start. Some people are meant NOT to be able to begin it.

That's why it's an Epic Quest. That is why it an ultra-difficult challange for only the most dedicated players to undertake. It's not meant to be for everyone, to begin with. Yes it's sad to be among those who dont fit the criteria, but admins have stated it months before the release - "this quest will be very difficult, not everyone will be able to START it to begin with".

Thanks for saying people who can't start it are basically losers

Im not saying that. I am saying, that quest is meant for those willing to put WORK and TIME into it.

If you're not willing to put work and time into getting 5K SB - which is absolutely possible and is NOT too much - then, you're not willing to put work and time into that quest? Then you cant get it.

No working hard = no reward. Getting 5K SB is included into "working hard".

So here is a question..how much does the app normally sell for? does it only go for 3GB or change or does it go for a lot more like 20 or 20GB..take that into consideration when you start complaining about the price. They could have made it way worse...look up Interstellar Remnants on the trading post. If it only costed 1000sb and some items you are decreasing the value of the app and at that point there is no point in making it a rare drop or Epic quest

I can't help but support; I don't think players should have to go broke and be left with maybe a few sb once they've managed to pay the requirement, it just doesn't seem right and it feels too difficult at the end of the day

My question is how much do y'all think its gonna drop in price because of this then it won't be worth all the shit you have to do

Zambs, the easier things are to get, the cheaper they get
And admins try to keep some things worth more so people have "rare" and "hard to get" stuff to aim for.
Otherwise, the game will get boring. Richer/faster people need a harder challange, or they will get bored of Lioden real quick.

That's why they make effort to make it an Epic Quest, so it's hard and fun to do for people wanting a challange.
But there are people who feel hurt they dont fit the requirements and demand those requirements to be lowered so they can enter too. Without caring that the quest is meant to have "Very Difficult" difficulty, they demand it to be lowered.

If admins just wanted to give out an Interstellar Remnants just to anyone, they'd have put it into the Storyline reward. They'd need not bother coding a whole new way if they wanted it to be easier and for everyone.
