I do agree with his conclusions on tiger riders though, especially considering that spices are meh anyway (imo). The only reason to keep 5 tigers is scroll missions.

WeatherMatt Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I agree - speed captain seems worthless to me. Give me two morale, two SF and one combat. Four merchants is overkill - seems like a lot of days you won't roll four trade good voyages total, much less at once. Two at the most. I would go:5 Morale6 SF4/5 Combat4 Judge4 Ox2/1 Merch This is just gut feeling, no calculations done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoko Kurama Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Just another adventurer reroll, 3rd day in a row that I have gotten an adventurer reroll from the daily Random event. I got another scroll + 5 Chi mission. I think my luck is slowly turning around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troacctid Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I think the endgame plan is to eventually build telescopes go for xp missions, assuming you're not maxed. I know I want to abuse those easy 25k slayer voyages. Read my blog | Follow me on Twitter | Track my XP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loreal Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Okay, so in case anyone cares, I can confirm that it is possible to get two randoms in the same server day. I just finished the barmaid event (you can see that in my chat) when i checked a mission and immediately got the black marketeer event. You can see the random event icon on the minimap. I didn't do a random yesterday. So it still works out to be one random per day, but this is confirmation that you can have two in one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quyneax Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 The icons don't disappear until you reload the port though, right? That's the case with Meg anyway.

Sy_Accursed Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 I'd ask when did you get the barmaid event? Sure you just did it then checked and got the marketeer, but did you get the barmaid event today or did you get it yesterday and just not complete it?

Peronix Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 So I'm 99% to the pincers, and I have everything built including a jade statue and a cherry tree. What should I use the other two totem spots on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Lord Dan Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 So I'm 99% to the pincers, and I have everything built including a jade statue and a cherry tree. What should I use the other two totem spots on? Either two telescopes, or a telescope and a pandora's box. I built a box after going a whole day of pincer voyages without a random, annoyed me greatly. How many hotdogs does it take to mow a garage door?

Troacctid Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 I have Jade Statue, Telescope, and Pandora's Box. I'm kind of regretting the Jade Statue obviously since it does literally nothing. After I finish upgrading my workshop, I think I'm adding a second telescope, and eventually I'll replace the statue with a parrot.

Hameigh Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 I built 4 telescopes and still don't have scroll missions most days. :mad: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peronix Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Ok so on a 300 cherrywood mission, I get 333 cherry wood. 30 of that comes from the 10% warehouse bonus. So... the cherry tree provides a whole 1% bonus to resources. They might as well be cosmetic items it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troacctid Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Yeah, Cherry Tree is 1%. Not very useful. Do Telescopes even stack? Is that confirmed? Read my blog | Follow me on Twitter | Track my XP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoko Kurama Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Do Telescopes even stack? Is that confirmed?I have heard conflicting accounts of this: some people believe they do stack, while others think not. Totems in general give a very small boost that in most cases doesn't amount to much. Regardless, I have 4 telescopes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeatherMatt Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 May as well go with 4 telescopes (I do as well). What else would you use it on? * XP missions? I'll pass* Jade statues? Since they give a whopping 1 spice gain on one mission, pass* 1% resources? Hahahaha* Pandora's box? I get my standard issue one random per day without them.

Troacctid Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 XP missions are respectable enough. Same xp as a lv95 effigy. *shrug* My assumption is that they stack because we know for sure that the cherry tree and jade statue stack.

strilmus Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 seeing as none of the totems are actually worth building at the moment (to the point where it's a must have), i'm just saving the resources in case they actually do become useful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IridiumBunny Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 I had almost no scrolls for weeks (took me from day 1 to pincers to get full tetsu, doing every scroll), but build two telescopes and have I only missed two days of the last three weeks. So from my awfully small sample I would say that telescopes are a necessity to finish all the recipes in a timely fashion. I have heard similar reports from others too. I agree the others are not worth it, but telescopes might be the exception. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
