balance arena GP (math example)

Dear devs, I am one of many who agree that arena GP is wildly unbalanced compared to daily quest GP. To show you what I mean I'll show a quick estimate and show how fast arena fighting breaks even with hours of questing.

 

All my estimates are calculated with unity potion effect and remember THIS is just an estimate.

 

                                  (Ilse + Lab + Swamp)

Total daily quests: 16  + 7  + 7  = 30

 

So if you have 0 dailies, you'll get around 30 per day.

 

If you spend hours doing them all in one day they give your guild around -

 

(16*40+80)+(7*80)+(7*40)= ~1560GP

 

And from what I hear a 5x5 arena fight gives 14GP (with unity potion) per person.

 

14*5=70GP per win

 

Which means

 

1560/70 = 22.3

 

So already after 22.3 fights (5x5) you have broke even with someone doing all 30 daily quests. This is insane if you compare the work one person haft to do to complete 30 dailies compared to 23 arena fight (5x5). If my info was correct this should be a decent estimate and hopefully show my point. That arena GP needs a limit or other balance features.

 

Cheers bloody

ill gladly disagree bc not all r rich and buy tix like that and have to do dailies and farm to get enough gold for tickets so i say its fair enough and not only that not many players can so many times in a row. espicailly if going random

Xcon I believe youre missing the point.

 

First of all 20tkts is around 4k gold on emerald server. I wouldn't call that a criteria to be rich.

 

Second of all to gain GP you can't go random it has to be a party with guildmembers only for you to gain GP.

 

Thirdly my whole point here is that doing 30 daily quests (lab inclured) will take you many hard working hours, probably a whole day. Doing 20 tkts will take you what 30mins? How is that fair to the insane amount of work for a quester. And quests have a limit, around 30 max per day. Arena is limitless...

We tried a couple of times a 5x5 last week with our guild but in 30 minutes it was 0 fights. Theoraticaly you are absolutely right of course.

 

 

We actually did a split up of the guild-members in 3x3 and ended up fighting ourselfs  ;D
