Thank you for the new furniture in the undaunted event, please do event furniture more often

Mascen · September 22

Just wanted to give my heartfelt thanks to the devs who decided to add undaunted furniture for the 2024 Undaunted event. As someone more housing/PVE oriented, this lit a fire in both me and the housing guild I belong to. As for the actual furniture itself? *Chefs kiss* Its alot of what i and others have wanted for a while. So keep up the good job, add more event specific furniture, and expand the undaunted furniture for the 2025 event. Personally speaking i'd love another kind of beer keg and large variants of the undaunted rugs.

Yes, this was a very nice addition, thank you!

Maybe these items could also be sold by the Impresario for 1 or 2 tickets? Sometimes I have spare tickets I don't really have a clue what to spend them on. Of course I could always buy group repair kits or something like that so they aren't completely wasted, but furniture would be more useful for me.

i agree!
and also agree that that it would be nice go buy the event furniture with event tickets.

i love that all the regular events now have event decorations, i want it all as furniture please, especially the jubilee decorations

Wholeheartedly agree but there also needs to be an incentive for housers and pvers to hunt for them so perhaps making the previous years furniture available for tickets while the current years new additions are coffer drop only? I think it would be a fair compromise while still giving the more dungeon adverse players a reason to jump in the queue.

I'd be fine with that, even though I personally don't like the idea of "incentivizing" people to do something they are "adverse" to through rewards. The hunt is fun if it's an activity I enjoy. If not, it's not fun, but a hassle.

I'd just solo teir 1 or teir 2 dungeon no reason to touch that queue to get them

Syldras · September 22

For me it's soloing some easier dungeon. Sometimes a daily pledge if there's something I feel like doing. But usually... 10 minutes of Fungal Grotto (Or is it even less? Anyway, it's short at least). And no, I don't take Azandar with me - can't do that to that poor old man.

I thought they patched fungal grotto 1 because so many people were farming it for event coffers?

I have no clue whether there are any changes. I just run through it, kill all bosses necessary and leave again. Just as I've been doing it in all previous dungeon events

MidniteOwl1913 · September 22

Yes, the housing stuff is really nice! Love the rugs!

spartaxoxo · September 22

Yes. It's super nice and I'm glad it's not available with tickets. It's nice to have something that might actually retain a bit of value for a little while.

Same! This was a very nice and highly welcome surprise to see the themed furniture additions. Oh and yes: Please more of it.

The story I was told was because so many people try to rush through FG1 to kill the dreugh boss thats the reason we now have dungeon specific named event coffers. And that FG1 has not as good droprates for the ease with which it can be done.

Can't confirm. If I compare it to the other dungeons I've done during the last few days, the content of the box is always random, but it's usually 1 golden style page, 1 purple style and 1 piece of furniture (from blue quality to gold - I even got the golden one from Fungal Grotto 1, some wall-mounted troll head).

Then they should boost drop rates for soloists, i.e those who don't use companions...

Though if they are going to (semi-)curate them then I'd like to know why I keep getting the same motif no matter which dungeon I complete (Earthgore Mace).

Doesn't make a big difference, to be honest, at least not wih basegame dungeons. A few minutes of time, at most.

Yes! Now gamers can work on themselves an Undaunted house.

katanagirl1 · September 23

Yes, these were great! I got a few myself and there were enough in guild traders to pick up some extras for a good price as well. Furnishing items are always good, and like @spartaxoxo said we didn’t have to use tickets for them, they just dropped.

AllenaNightWood · September 23

i never really did event until they added furnishings it was a needed refresh to be able to get more things

Partially, the big goal now is to incentivize the devs to add more furniture to the drop list next year.

Like I said above, large versions of the rugs would be nice in addition to another kind of beer keg or perhaps a whiskey/wine rack. Problem is coming up with cool yet plausible furniture suggestions from monster parts like a sprigganwood dining table made from Nazray, a refridgerator made out of Iceheart, a Selene-silk trio of bathing robes, or a dwarven espresso/kaveh machine made from the Rkugamz Sentinel which pours out of the helmets mouthhole.

Y'know, the kind of stuff thats cool in an undaunted way.
