Hello! Love the game and thank you for keeping it up and running!

pros-
1. free stuff
2. learned about a "new to me" streaming platform
3. first day drops came as expected

cons-
1. 2nd day drops slowed to a trickle, despite watching almost constantly for 3 straight days, and I still did not receive my final 3 drops (tried multiple suggestions from streamers like zarbix such as re-linking account, closing and reopening browser, etc.)

Thank you for all that you do!

1. Rewards:
- Where the rewards fair?
As a new player, I thought the items were very nice! I found a use for just about everything I think, other than the dyes. If I had a character with a higher RR than 40 and some better gear, then I could see how the potions and talismans aren't great.
- Is the RNG fair? We're talking about intended rare rewards.
I think it was fair, it kept the intended items to be rare. Even with the rate increase I still didn't get one, so maybe it worked as intended?
- Would a Bind on Pickup (BoP) system suit you for the rewards? They won't be sellable anymore and you might get stuck with them.
No, I'd like to be able to sell some of the stuff I don't need/use. Had that problem with some grey dyes and had to destroy them, wish I could've sold them.

2. Hours required:
- Where the hours required fair?
Yes and No. I understand that the bigger rewards would require higher watch-times, but it did seem like "going AFK" was the only way to actually get everything and that might seem disingenuous to some people.
- Which method pleased you more: Watching 1 streamer or watch any/multiple streamers?
I liked being able to watch multiple streamers for the awards. This even introduced me to other content creators that I didn't know about.

3. Quests:
- Were the quests engaging/new/challenging?
The only quest I got was the "Win 5 Scenarios" quest, which was alright.
- Were the quests' rewards fair?
For the one I did, sure.
- Were the quests too long/too short?
Mine felt short, even with puging all five SC's. I'm sure it would've felt a lot shorter with a pre-made.

4. Streamers:
- Do you think there were a lot of streamers? Is it bad/good?
I didn't have a problem with the amount of streamers, I think it's good to have as many as you can for events like this so people can watch someone new and still reap the benefits.
- Was the streamer's quest item annoying?
I didn't get it.
- Did you have any issue with a streamer (do not write any names)?
No.
- Have you watched more than one streamer?
Yes.
- Have you met new streamers?
Yes, I met five new streamers.

First time on this event was good experience over all. One thing that was a disappointment was a drop that has a 24 hour decay and had dependence on others to complete (dueling). No big deal but wasn't able to play yesterday because of work so timer ran out on me with nothing done. if its only going to have 24 hours it should be from when you start the quest not when you open the item( or a warning of a 24 timer involved. I wanted to see what it was and now is lost. For a first timer, it's impossible to know what has timers and what dosent. Just a thought everything else was pretty nice.

1. Rewards:
- Where the rewards fair?
I would rather have less total drops with each drop being of more unique value. Also, I had my stream running almost the ENTIRE start-end time and still missed out on the RNG drops.

- Is the RNG fair? We're talking about intended rare rewards.
Did not like the RNG. watched the whole weekend and still missed out on them. Would much rather have a set of twitch drops based on time watched and replace RNG with a few in game activites/events we could accomplish to receive additional rewards. This would provide incentive for both watching and playing.

- Would a Bind on Pickup (BoP) system suit you for the rewards? They won't be sellable anymore and you might get stuck with them.
Prefer to have a stronger market and less BOP.

2. Hours required:
- Where the hours required fair?
Maybe slightly high for such a short event. I also feel that the rewards did not scale well as far as time watched = reward value.

- Which method pleased you more: Watching 1 streamer or watch any/multiple streamers?
watching 1 streamer. If we have to watch I want to be able to watch the one I want to support and engage with.

3. Quests:
- Were the quests engaging/new/challenging?
hard to complete for lower levels, very buggy

- Were the quests' rewards fair?
not sure, as my friends and I were unable to complete quest line due to bugs with PQs and credit for keep capture.

- Were the quests too long/too short?
They only felt long because of bugs and it forcing you to do content. the quest didnt provide any new content, just forced you to grind stuff you don't want to do. I would of much rather had a special event map, a unique story line, or some mini games.

4. Streamers:
- Do you think there were a lot of streamers? Is it bad/good?
more than I thought there would be.

- Was the streamer's quest item annoying?
It was a cool Idea but in practice proved to be an inconvenient barrier.

- Did you have any issue with a streamer (do not write any names)?
no
- Have you watched more than one streamer?
yes

- Have you met new streamers?
yes

Maybe a Destro vs Order stream?

The event was very nice. I just have a few minor things i would like to point out:

The timer was set way too high imo. It shouldnt be a requirement to let the stream run through the whole night to be able to get the highest rewards. Its not healthy to spend 40hours of your weekend on gaming, also its an unnecessary power consumption to let your machine run the whole night. I believe (given the average screentime is about 5hours per day for a person) it shouldnt be more than 15hours of watching for the highest reward.

Some of the rewards were a bit mediocre like the weak hp pot, armor pot and talismans. I believe handing out less of these but therefore more powerful specimen would be appreciated.
Given that in earlier events the aviator goggles were basic quest rewards i was a bit disappointed they had such a low drop chance this time, but overall i am not against some rng rewards.

The idea of having streamers build catapults was quite fun. Sadly i wasnt able to finish the quests yet.

I learned about a lot of new streamers ive never heard of before and i liked watching different ones more than watching only one specific. There were more than enough streamers to cover my viewtime.

-- no, i sold most of the rewards I got

2. Hours required:
- Where the hours required fair?

3. Quests:
- Were the quests engaging/new/challenging?
-- "Win 5 scenarios" was dumb but did get more people into Sc's so that was nice

-- yes

4. Streamers:

I'll preface this a bit, this "second drop" the first time I was able to attend this event and have not yet claimed any rewards.
I have been rewarded with the 40 hours of times drops and a few RNG including the aviator's goggles.


1. Rewards:
- Where the rewards fair?
Mostly indifferent. I did not expect any more or less

- Is the RNG fair? We're talking about intended rare rewards.
I don't think the rng rewards were great, if have rather seen smaller rewards, like gold, scrolls, talks and dyes be random. Still obtainable in game, but otherwise a bonus not such a feel bad for missing out. (I did pick up the rate goggles too)

- Would a Bind on Pickup (BoP) system suit you for the rewards? They won't be sellable anymore and you might get stuck with them.
perhaps more of an account bound thing. I've yet to open my rewards. Not entirely sure what's all there. I've always appreciated an account bound style. I can see how the process of claiming fills that. But I'm not entirely sure what the rewards are and don't know who I want to claim them for yet.


2. Hours required:
- Where the hours required fair?
No. 40-hours is a work week it should not be condensed into a weekend. This promoted a lurking viewership, while great for twitch stats, it's not always active and engaging for the streamer. I believe this also promoted unhealthy levels of stream time (12+ hours and more)

- Which method pleased you more: Watching 1 streamer or watch any/multiple streamers?
indifferent. I can run many tabs or 1. However, I'm likely to only be an active viewer in one of those channels.


3. Quests:
- Were the quests engaging/new/challenging?
I have not yet done them, I don't know the details of the quests and who I'd want to finish it on. I think I'd prefer quests to be unlocked account wide

- Were the quests' rewards fair?
I do not know

- Were the quests too long/too short?
I do not know


4. Streamers:
- Do you think there were a lot of streamers? Is it bad/good?
yes, there was many. I don't think this was entirely bad, but definitely overshadowed many of the streamers without drops.

- Was the streamer's quest item annoying?
I don't know, but yes if I've missed a window to complete a quest now.

- Did you have any issue with a streamer (do not write any names)?
yes, only because they ended stream instead of raiding another drop enabled streamer

- Have you watched more than one streamer?
yes
- Have you met new streamers?
yes
