Maintenance for the week of April 6:
• PC/Mac: No maintenance – April 6

Why are we only getting daily rewards for 3 weeks out of the month?

They aren't really daily if they don't happen every day. It's mostly junk anyway, so why isn't it still daily?

    Last month was because of the large patch (re-download the game) on PC. This month it is the same for console.

    But honestly I'd like it if they did this every month.

    Nah, I like getting free stuff. A little extra gold, AP, Tel Var or what not is always welcome at the end of the month.

    Ohhhh. Ty for posting this. I also thought it was their way to address some of the criticisms when people miss days.

    I also kind of like this better. Less filler, less likely I will miss too many days to get "the cool thing this month." Although I suppose it is almost the same thing if they never put high ticket items in the last week of the month.

    its pretty much why they changed it so that last week of rewards is something nice, but not unique or amazing, so you are still rewarded if you log in, but if you miss some days, you still don't miss the penultimate reward

    I generally prefer the stuff like AP they tend to put in week 4. Thus far, my EU character has gotten up to Vigor without having set foot in Cyrodiil and it's awesome.

    It's been kind of bad lately. Nothing but scrolls and potions. If you have all maxed level characters and in crafting as well all this stuff is useless. What happened to crates? I would love to see more telvar, 100k gold or maybe some rare resources like cromium added. Make it worthwhile. Last months bear cup pet was nice but the pony this month is just meh and I love horses. Don't like using pets that large as they just get in the way of everything.

    :Looks at monthly rewards:
    :Sees 15/21 filler:
    :Actually it is 19/21 filler if you maxed out crafting:

    Yep. Less filler. Ap and telvar last 9 days of the month is much, much, much better.

    They kind of do this already, with the major reward for the full month coming on day 21 or so. It’s a very sensible move as it gives people who miss a few days the ability to still get the ‘big’ reward and gives players who log on every day some nice little bonuses for days 21 and above.

    That said, pretty much all the daily rewards the last 2 months have been useless. I don’t necessarily want them to be super significant, but I’d love them to be more imaginative than 3 weeks of crown crate crap.

    I have to agree. Unless you have no life, most of us just can’t log in every day. I try to login as much as I can, but there are times when I just can’t. Recently I was sick with the flu and just didn’t feel like logging in. So I often miss out on the final reward. Having it for only 3 weeks gives me a little leeway and a chance to take a breather from the game if I need to.

    Yes, i am all for only 3 weeks of rewards...
    After careful consideration (and oh! so much deliberation) we have concluded that you circumstance sounds too much like a l2p issue for it to be just a mere coincidence.

    The poor quality 'rewards' is self defeating as the system was set up to encourage or tempt more players to log in more often, but who on earth is incentivised to log in for what is pretty much useless stuff ? lol

    They got the temptation part accomplished early one with big rewards like crown crates and even the Murkmire DLC. Now that they've got a good number of players hooked, they can just phone it in.

    3 weeks?

    1 day is more accurate!
    The other 20 are just a pain to collect and destroy!

    The rewards are made overseas, with the C virus ZoS was just thinking ahead and hoarding their supplies is why.

    I don't like that some of the rewards have no value to me but they are bound to my account. Like what am I going to do with a mount upgrade if my mount is maxed? Who cares about XP if you are max CP? I only need 1 master crafter, all this research stuff is junk. I already have an army of non-combat pets. Poison's are worthless to me. AP is pretty worthless also unless it's a large amount.

    Stuff I like:

    Gold
    Telvar
    Gold crafting mats
    Alchemy ingredients
    purple recipes
    housing items
    writ vouchers
    surveys


    See the pattern? Stuff I can use or sell for gold.

    I assumed it's to give ppl wiggle room if they miss days.
