> [@Sossitch](#): > > don’t do world events when people are attacking you in guild wars Hm… that will complicate things for sure. Best strategy is to use all World Event sigils on Monday, play all 30 war battles, and back to world event again on Sunday once all GW matches are done? Nah, seems like a lot of work. If anyone is catching me in my 10 minutes daily of World Event catch up, then good for them, I guess. My defense shouldn’t relied that much on Medals anyway. If it lose more without a good Medals, then i will probably need a better team. Not that there is any method to know for sure if it’s even a main factor. ---

The 10% win rate on defense will drop to 8% ---

This whole medal issue is a mess. Appalling design to not realise this when running wars and world event concurrently. ---

> [@Saltypatra](#): > > A Clue is worth 1 point, and as each battle gets harder they will increase the amount of Clues given by 25%. I assume this would be easier to understand if it said “25% of base value”. Or if it just said 4 + 1 per additional battle, 8 + 2 per additional battle, and 12 + 3 per additional battle. As for GW medals vs World Event medals … I mean, I’ve been saying the system is dumb since before it was public, not sure how much more I can express that. _Obviously_ this would function better if they were linked to individual teams … the same way a bunch of _other_ things are _already doing_ … I guess for those really concerned by it, do World Event stuff on days you can see the opposing guild has already run up the majority of their GW fights against you. I will likely do this. ---

Considering we are restricted to Human types for the world event and blue weapons. You get negative points for lazy design choices like choosing Mace for this task. ![20200727_025731](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/f/b/fb5d2c54305728f0868bd19e39cdb7ce1580aaf9.jpeg) With these as our only options to use in the World event. ![20200727_025710](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/d/4/d44e1d35c33381a2da42bbf420e64f08426ef9e4.jpeg) ![20200727_025700](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/a/8/a8fc3d603bd25467331fcbac0d416f5e1f0d4ae8.jpeg) I’m aware not every task is designed to be done in the world event (clearly). But the tasks should have some sort of synergy… otherwise what the hell is the point of all the lore that ties in with the event? Is it just words to scratch that itch for players. Or can it actually matter game play wise? ---

Speaking of ill conceived design choices. ![20200727_031405](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/1/2/124e73e1e94f652db8020d2f0dc7767fe9f00a80.jpeg) Hey Devs, in case you haven’t noticed. This isn’t exactly a wise time to encourage your players to enjoy the game even less than they already are. ---

You know, instead of repeatly complaining about it, actually spending a few seconds in Treasure Hunt, would get it done way faster already? ---

Took about the same amount of time as it did to complain about it. ![Screenshot_20200727-032241](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/1/3/13eca93c080c5de22c9ceae83c2e2be7c2ce003e.jpeg) After 3 years of map distancing I say I did pretty well on my first try. I appreciate that you took the time to give me life guidance about my feedback though. I mean… surely that time wasn’t a waste on your end at all. ---

The scoring makes sense literally for the first time. The troop and weapon selection is decent. Still they need to fix the meaningless choices on the map. ---

Morthani has a very strong will here though. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/2/2/22ac19c58c343d91a0fe73378013db5250955535.gif) ---

I said the same. This is by far the best scoring method for the world events. As for the campaign, took me ~1 hour to do all the tasks for the week without skipping anything. Id say thats fine for the rewards tbh ---

The “Skip” button during Task redemption is still grayed-out and does not work…so we have another week of watching every single star animation, apparently. ---

Due to the points being based on rarity and level, I dont think there is a boss in this 1 this week ---
