Bounty Board

Hi guys,

I recently started playing again and from what I have heard bounty board has voided elixirs almost entirely and new players breeze through many more levels then previously. I know lixing was never fun, but just checking if a level 150 has put much effort in (just talking exp here), as I am still adjusting to new levels and bounty board.

Cheers

I wouldn't say it has voided elixirs it has more just given a small boost to help heroes level :)

That and the ability to get some extra items (Some rare) just from doing a few daily quests

I really like the bounty system, makes me excited to sign on each day knowing I have a few extra quests to do :lol:

im level 161 and my bounties usually give me 10-40 percent. i could have a crappy day and only get regular bounties, or i could get lucky and have like 3 elite bounties and have higher exp

They add some variety to the game, give XP and gold, and sometimes you can get lixes or rare items. I also agree that they don't negate lixes, but they definitely can help with lvling faster.

At level 200 I'm getting around 60k for a regular bounty and 250k for an elite bounty. I never look at the exact numbers. 60k is one 4s mob on lix if im soloing.
Keep in mind that you can only do 6 bounties a day. Two free and four more that can be bought with pledges. On my server pledges sell for about 1k each.

I don't think they are a replacement for lixes but I would consider them a big improvement over the arena quest.

At level 222 on my rogue, 6 elites would give me around 12% which is like 5-6 lixs, considering those elites would take about 20-30min and the lixs take 1hr-1:30 it's clear that bountys help people level up faster, I believe this is a good thing rather than an negative though

I definitely think it's a good thing.

Focusing on the question of replacing lixes. I have not gotten more then two elite quests in a day. Usually I get 4 to 5 standard quests and one elite quest. If you are seeing similar rates as I am you are probably looking at closer to 6% a day from bounties. I am definitely interested in hearing how much other higher level players are getting daily.

For the original poster I hope a few mid level players can chime in and let us know how they are doing.

I usually get 1 Beltane or elite every 12 bounties, a guy called vidar on epona gets on average 1-2 standards a day because the rest are elite and Beltane he's one lucky 224 :lol:

I'm a level 126 Druid. One xp gets me about a bar soloing because kills are so slow for me.

Doing all 6 bounties every day (don't really have the time to do much else other than sit in castle hoping people offer things I'm looking for while I'm sitting in lecture) almost gets me one full level every two days.
Between yesterday and today, I'm slightly over two bars from leveling. I had no red showing and the slightest sliver of yellow after leveling Tuesday evening.

Definitely sped things up, but nothing like lixing with a clannie. Won't replace power leveling or group leveling, but for slow leveling classes, it's far better than solo lixing.

As a level 125 warrior, a standard XP elixir gives me around 40%. An elite bounty gives 10-20% and a standard around 5%. I do around 4 bounties a day, and get an elite or Beltane bounty every 2 or 3 days :)
