Night market rewards

Firstly, I love the night market and this event however the current rewards are bad mainly because OLD motifs are already low in value and not worth much. The merchant vendors don’t offer enough rewards to validate farming more than 10k favour (which is super easy to get). I think there needs to be NEW furnishings and plans for each faction centred around each faction rather than reuse older furnishings… it’s rather disappointing for a NEW event
I believe that the main if not the only real issue lies with the rewards.
Calamitous bosses drop a small amount of trade bars and have a chance at motif most of which are worthless (dungeon motifs dropping ruin the economy though and make dungeon farm less relevant and that’s mostly the only reason to replay dungeons, same goes for all other motifs tbh, so I dislike motif drops) and that’s it, other bosses and trash enemies don’t have any rewards at all. There needs to be something meaningful, that will make farming them feel worthwhile, some guaranteed reward, be it trade bars or just an amount of gold, or mats or whatever, desirable but not too expensive, and smaller chances for better drops. Trash can just drop gold mb, or offer a chance at lowest tier boss drops.
Similarly favor needs more value too, it would in turn add more meaning to all sources of favor. Currently there is absolutely no reason to farm favor, 10k is easy to get in several days and the only rewards are monster shoulders and some furniture that is the same for all factions which is pretty worthless. Favor merchant should have a lot more rewards, especially something desirable, all requiring a certain amount of favor, cap of favor should be raised accordingly. Make part of the rewards faction-locked but those have to be valued carefully, so factions don’t end up a clear best choice.
