The last few days, I've had a chat with several people about the new mission where you have to supply 10,000 Calypso Bone Samples to an NPC to get a reward (Well, I expect a reward).
We've been discussion how many mobs you have to kill for this, and whether it would make sense to buy Calypso Bone Samples.
Personally, I'd be willing to pay about 1PED/K. This would come down to paying 10 PED to finish the mission without any added effort (I will still put in the effort though, as I need to kill those puny anyway). Others have said that 1 pec per CBS would be minimum. Personally, I don't think it is worth paying that much.
We discussed it a bit more, and then someone came up with the thought that this mission was introduced to make hunting more worthwhile for lower levels, while not affecting tt payout-ratios. And indeed, by giving these items, the lootpool can increase, without actual change in the tt value of the lootpool. Brilliant idea indeed, which could indeed help young hunters.
Following this, I really would like to urge developers: PLEASE GIVE US SWEAT MISSIONS, where you turn in the sweat with an NPC for rewards. Preferably also some rewards which you can claim more than once.
Such missions will increase demand for sweat, help boost the sweatprice a bit (or at least: stop the fall of the sweatprice) and thus help us retain newbies.
