Map Frags

[PELIAS]

With the small selection of adventures on offer, I think map frags have lost their value in terms of price/cost and usefulness. I think that section in the merchant needs an overhaul. Introduce more and harder to obtain adventures into the mix. We receive map frags from explorers and excelsior but are just stored and not really used.

If they were to introduce more adventures for map frags they could increase the price of said adventures so they could maintain some rarity. Thus giving map frags a new purpose while giving players more adventure options.

it does need a refresh so +1 for that ..... not least as BB seem to insist on offering us the same adventures that you can get in the adventure shop ... in guild shop for a much higher price.

BUT as for them not being useful .... mystery adventure box ... excellent for getting the seasonal adventures for events!

I tend to use mine on either black knights or witch of the swamp, if neither of those is needed for an event then they go on the mystery box.

Something I would suggest is maybe having more mystery boxes that are tied to the different adventure searches, have them unlock as the next tier of adventure search becomes available.

This would mean:

level 36 unlocks short adventure search mystery box.
level 42 unlocks medium adventure search mystery box.
level 56 unlocks long adventure search mystery box.

This would hopefully fix the supply of some adventures like The Island of the Pirates, Bastille Island, Twins, The Grain Conflict, Heart of the Wood.

The need for map frags depends on player level. For me here, lvl 65, I have loads but on my other 2 worlds where I am under lvl 50 I have a constant need for them to buy wots for guild quests. Just a shame dp isn't in the shop too or I would be able to buy that for gq's also.

i make hundreds of thousands of frags and they tend to get used on events when buying the mystery boxes to grab outlaws

every player will need map frags at some point for the fairy tale castle upgrades. That needs 3k map frags. but after that u dont really need them. im finding addy faster than i can do them with 2 intrepids searching.
Prob is the very long addy search tends to find 56 map frags and no addy. Maybe every 3rd very long search finds an addy the others just find map frags.

Also gets a bit frustrating when u have 1 medium addy search and 1 very long search both bringing back the same addy so i end up with 4 of the same addy lol.

I hope you had 40k map fragments in stash before today.

I've been using up my map frags quickly. Used heaps for the event going on today and there's something in the Mountain Clan chain that needs a lot too. Glad to see them finally have some purpose. Now I just wish I had more ;)

To me it looks like u are an old player... maybe u have full number of explorer & a RPH to produce map fragments... For me map fragments really means a lot & let me tell u something more.. during summer event was just a player trading map fragments for footballs so ur statement in my view is not correct at all. I'm using all my map fragments but I think our view is different just cos our premises are different.

Now this is what you asked for more adv to buy for map fragments

and when you get it your still not happy because you spent yours during the last event

as you can see not everyone can be pleased

Map Fragments are very much undervalued, even if you're not using them yourself, which I did use an awful lot from lvl36 to current lvl55 have done so many Wots and SFTR bought with fragments has meant that I've had easy adv's on hand for guild quests and events when I've been time poor. and you never know when BB is going to do a crisis over other events.

Should you not have These precious Fragments to hand when suddenly needed, you have several choices the most obvious
1 Buy them but do be aware lots of others are likely to need them as well so price may go up
2 if you have the resources and RPH you can soon whip out some more to use.
3 if you have the resources but no RPH then ask in the guild it's quite possible another member will be willing to make them at cost (providing buff means you'll get them sooner.
4 if you super lucky a guildmate may even gift you some

[Xibor]

I completely forgot you can make them in the RPH.
Back to the merchant!

[vigabrand]

I completely forgot you can make them in the RPH.
:rolleyes:

Map frags are awesome and should be left alone, the section in the merchant is as good now as it ever was, lets not mess around with that.

[Wulfmeister]

The only thing I'd like to see changed would be to make every adventure that is required for GQs permanently available in the merchant.

Without events like the sailor event the map fragments does not have much value. Only thing i use them for is to get some wots now and then to spam during events if I am busy. I do hope we will have more events like the sailor event in the future where we can get some of the advs we like from the map fragments.
That made adventure searches relevant again alsoand that was great.
