If you didn't know already you keep you tokens if you quit mid-way and the mission stays unlocked so you can get more in the same day. Sure you probably used 5 sparks of life and clicked the purple souls so much you got carpal tunnel and I would be pretty pissed if OOO decide to change it to only giving tokens at the end or locking the mission if the server kicks you for being in australia.
Do you think it's fair that you can cheat the apocrea mission?

With 2375 sigils you can make exactly 1weapon c:

@Scirio
half a weapon, you need 4700 for one
Thu, 10/24/2013 - 06:09

You need 1470 tokens for one, not 4700.
[edit: or 1340 according to bitsbee. At any rate, definitely not 4700.]

Obsidian Shard(x6)-260 Sigils
Binding Essence(x4)-540 Sigils
Perplexing Element(x2)-540 Sigils
Total: 1340 Apocrean Sigils

The announcement in my mail stated the run was repeatable, so I think it's weird that it's not.

(So the lazy people won't have to use their simple math skills)
260 + (540 • 2) = 1,340
To craft all 3 weapons...
1,340 • 3 = 4,020
Get that much and all you need are the level 10 4* weapons.

That's what I thought, too
I was pretty upset, because I just wanted to get my 50 Sigil reward & continue farming, but I got locked out. ;-;
Oh well, at least I got my Silent Nightblade. And I almost forgot that I had an unused Graviton Charge. So there's that.

Mhm.
My guess is that the power of math has abandoned some of you.

.
Event lasts two weeks. Plenty of people already have the full set after like, 3-4 runs. So even if you don't reset the mission, you'll be fine for this event.

my 2 cents
I did 2100 sigils in one run...
Why would I need to do it more than twice?
I don't get it...
Elite 4 man teams = 8 sigil per soul... 3 depths cleared in 40 minutes...
yeah..... why do you glitch it anyway?

Sure it's fair. They want you
Sure it's fair. They want you cheating and doing those missions non-stop so you don't notice what else was slipped into that update on Wednesday.

They cheat us out of radiant crystals, we cheat them out of endless tokens?

I support this.

Given the small number of tokens you get by "cheating" the mission vs the massive number you get by actually farming the graveyards, I honestly don't see the point in cheating it. does getting an extra 50 tokens really matter if you're going to get 1000 in the course of legitimate play?

Wolfe-knight applauds
@Battlegrinder
I do not think you really understand. You are able to leave the mission at the core level, thus forfeiting the extra 50 tokens you get legitimately from completing the mission. The reason behind leaving is that you are able to redo the whole mission over again (thus get another 1k tokens). So the "cheating" way nets you the ability to replay the mission as much as you want, while a legitimate run will just give you 50 extra tokens.

Radiants?
I don't know whether its radiants or shining a that are the problem. If there's too many radiants, it would be hard to level the 4* stuff, and its the same the other way. And people might not want to farm in cold blood for shinings with these events going on, right? But shinings in FSC is pretty upsetting.

More like windows calculator doesn't work like a real life one, try 2*2+2*2 you expect to get 16 but if you type that directly in windows calculator you get 12

reduce the token payout yo
I don't mind that it's repeatable, but I've gotten enough tokens already to make 3 of those weapons already. They need to stretch that grind out a little more so we aren't fully done way before halloween.

Unlike the Katastrophe, this promo is really profitable... sorta.
It definitely costs more sparks than the Katastrophe, and then heavily rewards skill/knowledge/cleverness. At the same time, you don't really need to grind it. It took me two runs over two days to get a Carbine. Conveniently, it took two days for me to get a lvl 10 Blackhawk.

Repeat it for a D28 arena
True, and people are forgetting there's a chance for an arena at depth 28, which spawns some radiant crystals.

I think the spark cost might be the equalizer people are forgetting... Except that spark farming in FSC or arcade is ridiculously easy.
Unless... Hold on a minute...
"Adjusted drop rates for Sparks of Life and Orbs of Alchemy"
"Adjusted" had better not mean "significantly reduced".

@Agentz
it's too late for that, the admins read everything really regularly (like ever 15 mins or so), you can tell from how fast double posts and things against forum rules are deleted some of those tasks can't be done by the system so it must be the admins, the reason they don't reply much is because their influence is so large

Silly knight, of COURSE that's what it means!
I did two runs. Got about 2375 sigils.
Event is pretty much over for me ;)
