Not really, I got to spend a whole extra day grinding to get 265 gold that I can do Nothing with. Can't buy anything for 265 gold. If I buy a booster, I get exactly the same thing I would have gotten if I had started with 0 gold.
I'm sure it helped all though people who hadn't gotten the drop yet who did on the last day.
You should really let gold carry over from one event to the next so people don't feel their efforts were a complete waste of time at the end if they don't quite make the target amount of gold for that particular event.

huh? you got 1760 gold, the cocoon and 1 essence... the scroll is 1k gold and the 2nd essence is another 500 gold...
that means you have 1 event char, plus a freaking 18 rare drops (i had 3)... how in the bloody hell can this be a totally frustrating event for you?

Cuz its kinda hard event and i usually ge all the items (paying some) but this time cant load fez on my country and the even makes me woke up at midnite every day also farm gold at work ¬_¬
18 rares using luck orb evry figth make fights slower and and i sually get 4-7 rares a week whit 23 energy bosses thats whitout grinding that way. thats why
well you must be incredibly lucky because i also used the luck orb in like 95% of the matches, but never had anything... i dont even get the rate of 4 rares a week (using luck orb) on normal bosses...
anyhow your problem then is the payment and not the event... because "usually getting all items" in this case was hinderd by you not being able to pay your way through... and as a (at least timewise) veteran of this game i m telling you what even the admins in the old forum had to repeat all the time on this issue... its not feeriks fault, its the payment provider from [insert country name]...
so if you do your critique just do it on the right thing...
@ DoctorDeath because i forgot earlier: you were grinding the additional day because you didnt have the items yet? or just to reach the 400 gold for another free card?
i m just asking because i think the additional day was just offered in order to have a higher chance in getting at least 1 char out of the event.
-----
now i just want to add my thoughts on the event in general, because i have seen plenty in eredan...
the event itself was actually quite good, sure the comunication was a bit delayed but we know that is a feat of feerik in general. we had the chance to obtain a free char and some of us got lucky and dropped a whole load of rares...
the char is not overly powerful so of course nice to have but not a must have
the event was designed and from the beginning there was no mistaking it, this event was a chance-based-event...
thus i cannot understand the opinions of some players, neither here or in german or french forum... we had the chance to obtain a free char... its always like this in chance related things... some get lucky, some dont... its chance
you can try really really hard and play the lottery a million times but your neighbour just wins it with his first ticket... what now? complain to... well... to whom? you wouldnt... because its chance
in older events which were also chance based, you had to grind 24/7 for a whole week to bearly get somethings... older players will remember, so this event was actually good because it allowed sleeping(!!! i m serious, old events required you to sit there and play the game)
the only thing i would improve for next time would be that the comunication should be straight from the start... either there is a 50 mission cap or not... but it appears the staff wasnt quite united on that descision
Well, when it comes to chance, I really should know better the only luck I have is bad luck. At least now, I can't say I never got a legendary from a newcomers back.
Ty Boadicea for the awesome farewell gift. Now just to think up an avatar to go with it. Anyway, I'm still a Sap/Nomad/Pirates fan and user.
I think the event was bad designed and there was a very easy solution for this.
Put in 3 mission that you have to kill each boss 30 times to get the materials.
And every win against a boss gives 10 gold. This randomness is unnecessary and not fun.
I don't understand why people try to defend something like this with "but before it was worst".
It has a reason that Eredan has now so few players.
+ Easy for everyone to participate
+ Cool new character
+ Many events in short time
+ Adventure mode is involved
+ Getting random cards by defeating boss
- Time and reward was not wel balanced
- Only adventure mode, so everyone played for 10 minutes until 60 energy was finished and had to wait loooong time to get the energy refilled
=> Solve this by giving players the opportunity to win gold or win energy in PvP rooms
=> Add some special energy packs for sale
=> Sell an amulet that gives you 90 start energy instead of 60
=> All possibilities to make players happy and make you get more money
- Experienced players had no advantage compared to new players
Well that sums it up for me.
As suggested in this forum it might not be a bad idea to involve the players in creating an event.
