    So, the DSO team is compensating us with pearls for resetting the Janus Fox quests in Curse Of Black Knights 2:Dragan's Return.
    the compensation is 200pearls for each stage completed in sabotage+200pearls as "EXTRA"
    Now, a quick calculation,
    pearls needed to complete stage 1 of Sabotage=(30+60+100+150=340) so, we are getting only 60 pearls as extra.
    and what happens to players who did get the chest but their quest was reset anyway?
    Is this 200 pearls extra a Red Herring?

    the figures don't add up. i completed first 4 quests and got compensation of 340 pearls, so no idea how that works into a multiple of 200

    not true imho. They are compensation those who couldn't open the chest. 200 pearls for each chests not opened. And all of us get 200 pearls for the 'trouble'.

    Actually they increased the compensation. In the original announcement it was 200 for each stage of Sabotage completed (1-4) and 200 for all players. Now it is still 200 per stage and 340 for all players.

    They gave out the 340 to everyone this morning. The per-stage amount has yet to be awarded. The Twitch feed today is supposed to have more info on the per stage part.

    Now if they would just change the name of the event to "Curse of the Bugged Events: The Return of Farming" all would be well :p

    Luck be with ye,

    You sure it should be "The Return of Farming"? More like the Demise of Farming if you ask me!

    Personally, I can't complain... my four characters only did the 5 Draken quest, nothing else, and I received 4 packs of 340 pearls. I put them all on my main character (the other 3 got a BigPoint "Thanks for understanding!").

    I was going to say, "How in the...?" but then it dawn upon me that all your characters were probably all based in the same one server within a single account. No fair! I should really do that on my Heredur server (create 3 more different classes).

    I did the 5 draken quest on my alt character but how it works is that I have one SW on the same account but two separate servers so I cannot transfer pearls over. :(

    that bug has existed for a long long time. why do you think everyone tried so hard when dwarfs first came out to get them to lvl40, it was so that they could get all the rewards including the 100Health gem on their main character

    Let's say that I have too much of a life outside of DSO and the Intarweb to really care about little exploits like that? Well, EXCUSE ME! This event is too much of a joke/disappointment that even if the devs and CMs decide to shell out 1 million pearls instead of 1 million andermant as a gift to me, I wouldn't care less.
