Revision as of 16:33, 16 March 2024

This page will explain the Bounties system introduced to the game on March 16th, 2024!

Bounties are in-character tasks that players can take on; these tasks are meant to be fairly open-ended to encourage a wide variety of approaches, including solo and collaborative takes.
- If completing the bounty with someone else, only one person needs to claim the bounty; be sure to indicate in your progress notes that it is being done with someone else (and who that is!).
Each bounty has a minimum requirement for posts, this is usually 1 - 2 but can be up to 4 depending on the complexity of the task.
- Bounties do not need to succeed in order for you to receive your rewards (you just need to meet the minimum post count); attempting and failing is still acceptable.
Each player can have up to 2 bounties active at one time; this cap may be adjusted in future depending on interest, so let us know what you think!
- You can check on your active bounties, add progress links/notes, abandon bounties (give up with no prize), or mark them complete from the Bounties page.
  - Once marked complete, the Support Team will swing by to check your notes and links and deposit your rewards into your account.

Any and all characters are welcome to participate in any Bounty, unless otherwise noted (we may introduce bounties available only to members of specific guilds in future!).

Find the bounty that you want to take on and click the "Claim" link on the right (circled in red in the first screenshot below).
- Note: The bounty and rewards will change each time you refresh the page so if you see something you want to take on, make sure to snag it!
On the claim page, you will see a summary of the bounty and the reward you will receive for completing it. Select the name of your character from the dropdown menu and click "Claim Bounty".
- If you decide not to take it on, you can click the "Back" link, but remember bounties will change if you do so!

The Completed Bounties link will allow you to check the status of your completed bounties.
The Update Progress link allows you to add notes and links to help track where you're at and what you have planned.
The Mark Completed link will allow you to add any final notes/links, and then mark your bounty finished. Support will be automatically notified by the system that you have completed your task.
The Abandon link will allow you to abandon any bounty you've started; you won't get a reward for it, but it will open up your available bounties so you can claim a new one.
The Saved Progress link will allow you to check notes/progress in case you need a refresher.
