I very much agree. Maybe it doesn't matter for the hardcore players. For the more casual players like myself, war effort is a very big source of EP income, and new player needs ~10k EP for warehouses, empire vaults, as well as say milestone reset.

What are the difficulty of the legendaries? Are they soloable for someone with semi-decent gear?

Can you say whether there would be nerfs for the advisors? Or only buffs?

The text for the optional objective is literally "Optional". Since I can see the countdown timer, I can infer what the quest is, but still.

One thing I observed from the video vs my playthough is to stay far away from their towers. Not only would you get shoot at if you move too far up, you would also aggro their patrolling units. You can see how the AI sends ~30 cavalry when the player in the video had units near the towers, and...

I assume by regular you mean the quest version? I just tried it on Norse, and I don't see it being particularly out of line compared to other Well of Urd quests. It's definitely not as bad as Hideout. Whatever you did there to hold off the original waves should work here too. Then it's just...

I disagree that upping rewards for existing under-rewarded would change the economics much. The rewards/time for many of these quests are so bad that even if we double or triple the rewards, it would have almost 0 impact on the game since it's still so much worse than the popular quests. (ex...

I really like Aryzel's idea of if you did all quests in a category (say Elite quests in a region), you get a legendary chest. That could encourage people to do more different quests. Another thing I was thinking is: Instead of saying that we need short quests with good rewards, we should come...

Given the added content from Celeste, you should have a lot of one-time quests left over. Stay far away from Athens until you have better gear + skills, but the Well of Urd quests are approachable. That should give you a taste of what a harder quest would look like. Unfortunately, given the...

I meant like if you equip berserkers with master assassin's gauntlet, then you cannot equip spearmen with the same item. You have to go with Ramses, or some other legendary. A wall of architect could either go on TC or market, but not both. It's probably impossible to implement in the game...

I guess "need" is a strong word, since it isn't absolutely required, but to optimally gear your civ, you would want many Assassin's, Architects, and Athens' Training Manual. Given that other people also think so as well, that drives the price up. As for alternatives, I am using them right now...

It my opinion, the real issue with those specific gear being super expensive isn't any of the stated reason, but the fact that you require so many copies of it. If each civ can use at most 1 copy for each specific legendary, the price would massively tank. It would also encourage gear diversity.

Of course they do. AI is not meant to provide a fair game. It's meant to provide a fun one. If you want to say infinite resource is cheating, how about the fact that in most RTS campaign (including this game), the AI start with more starting resource, building, units, better upgrades, etc? The...

Are the quests legendary only, or are there non-leg variants of them?

Actually, lvl 20 is enough to reach the city. Lvl 40 is needed for the legendary. Anyways, will the legendary quest be available some time in the future after the event is over?

I have gotten to lvl 40 not too long ago, and been farming Elite: Lots of Rogues and Persian Coercion. Maybe it's just my bias/sample size, but the reward chests from the latter seems to contain much more rarer items. In addition, some of the announcement posts here suggests that some...

Walling does help, but you still either need castles to tank or gastraphetes to out range the archers. My gripe with them though, is not that they are hard, it's that the rewards isn't balanced for their difficulty. The same can be said for the mini-quests as well, where the 2 priest quest that...

Castles don't die easily to their attacks though. So you can use them to tank while your range units go to town. But yes, having to field 3 castles and 60 fully upgraded range units (or a dozen ships) just against a treasure chest guardian is ridiculous. They should give 2x the amount of chest...

Yes, but only if you haven't equipped it, therefore binding it to the civ.

I have never got to 40 in the original game, but I hear that there since there's no alliance points in Celeste, they hand out EP instead for the various quests, including the materials quests.
