[TEI] Winter mission 07 easy (Mission impossible)

The easy missions for the winter event are supposed to be for level 6 to level 15, winter mission 07 is a collection mission on enemy maps.

Collect Terbium x20 on an enermy map
Collect Endurium x20 on an enermy map
Collect Prometium x20 on an enermy map
Watch your tail don't get killed
You have 24hrs to complete the mission

This not possible to complete for under level 13 as the x-2 maps are locked to below level 13 and the red rocks needed for completion cannot be collected as they are found only on x-1 and x-2 maps.

 

there are red rocks in either the x-3 or x-4 maps too very few but there if you got pet pay a little more then 2 k uri for lvl 1 resorce locator

 

Never seen a red rock on the x-3 and x-4 maps and if they are very few then the lower levels are still going to get hunted down just for sport while they look for them, i cant imagine many level 6 players having a pet they will would be trying to get there ship up to spec. I myself can do these missions but I also feel that some one must speak up for the lower levels so that they get a fair chance at the winter event and given incentive to stay with the game to build it back up again. Giving an easy mission should mean easy and not just to create fodder for higher levels.

 

yeah i agree 100% i had to get locator to find rocks sending noobs into enemy territory is sad

 

I agree.
That said, in defense of the 'HUNTER' players, this is a PvP game and it seems the developers must put something in there to try and lure much, much weaker players to try and do, so the heavy-hitters don't have to work so hard to get kills.
For the weaker players, if it seems to difficult, don't bother with it.
Example, there is one Event quest up about destroying 2 Ice Meteoroids. The funny thing is, it's not a share of a kill, you must have the kill shot (and having prime lock at start does not guarantee a kill count), so if there are any other players shooting at the Ice Meteoroid, then there is a good chance you will not get a kill. With my luck, I could try that quest from now until this time next year, if DO let it ride, and still not have 2 Ice Meteoroid kills. So I have stopped trying that particular quest.
There are still other things to do in-game.

 

Had that so many times back in the old days when sibs were hard and you were bashing away at it n just before it goes pop some leacher gets a lock gets the kill so not just wasted ammo you used up your prom as well there was no sky lab then. Had I set the mission i would have set the collection of reds on the x-2 home map (get the confidence going) and blues and yellows on enemy maps that way lvl 6 players could have entered enemy x-4 maps and had a chance at it.

 

I was trying to look in the archives at where I brought up this very subject last year and finally just gave up. After throwing a big fit last year about this, I just worked last year at leveling up all my accounts, 6 then 7 now, so I could just get this mission completed on all of them. I read the OP's opening post several times and was like, "It looks like me last year." This is a busy month. I started a new account on Dec 1st and even now have forgone trying the Cold Wave missions due to how tough the icy's are for me on that account. I was fortunate to be able to do the mission of topic, with cloak of course. The dev should really look at what they say the missions are for. If players are told easy missions are for those level 6 through anything, a just got to level 6 players should at least be able to go where the target is located. While we can not fault the dev for the player not having the equipment to do it, stupid icy, if the individual can not even access the target map, its a planning problem of the developers.

As far as hunters and leachers, the game is pvp. I deal with it daily. Nothing like getting that sib, BL, or BK just at the popping point when a cloaker goes at you and after popping you kills your npc. Lots of ore, ammo, and time just wasted for you. Happens to me daily. On my main while in enemy maps I just laugh it off but on any account in my own company maps, its just best to get up and get me a snack, especially if its 3 times in 10 min. We all get impatient at this but what can you really do? Best advise is to gather some friends, or make some.

Oh and that Meteriod mission? Its a hard mission. Lower level players won't see it. When upper level players see it, they should make sure they are in good graces with the company. Everyone has a chance at it. But be paying attention when it comes and move, like the wind.

 

"impossible"

 

Thank you for your input on this matter, I will pass this thread along as to make the dev team more aware of the situations they may be putting lower level players in during events.

With that said, the best way for lower players to get these completed is to get into a clan or outfit with a larger player willing to assist.
I do know that there are players on the game who are happy to help smaller players.

Please know I will pass this on,
Have a lovely day

Be advised that even being in a group would not help in this situation as you have to do the collecting yourself.

 

As I mentioned, I will pass this along for future events.

I am sorry that you felt it was impossible.
