    Wow. Crafting XP last week, Guild Renown this week.

    Impressive.

    Most Impressive.

    Could we have the lame egg festival next week?

    Pretty please?

    By way of constructive feedback now. Perhaps it might be an idea to intersperse more popular Bonus events with less popular ones. For example Crafting then Loot Bonus then Renown then Heroic/Epic XP.

    Just saying it might help to keep folks happier.

    Thanks! It was a pleasant surprise to see 4,600 renown when I was expecting only 4k.

    Thanks for the bonus. I look forward to whatever is on sale, even if it is something I don't need because it is FREE.

    Anything is better than nothing.

    My kids used to complain about their presents on Christmas until they realized lots of kids only received one half of what they received.

    No. No matter what they choose to activate when, there's always somebody who grumps about it. This week just happens to be your turn.


    (Tho Guild bonus being on the weekend I'll be road-tripping to Gen Con *almost* tempts me to feign grump.)

    Valid point. Which is part of the reason I edited my initial post. I would say though that its safe to say that the crafting then guild renown would likely be one of the worst possible orders for the average player. I don't think you can go wrong with either loot or xp every two weeks...

    15% increase is "Meh, cool but not cool enough to make me play this weekend."
    Now if you made it a 50% increase, "Holy cow! I am going to farm renown till my eyes bleed this weekend!!!"

    Turbine, you have a lot of MMO competition that has realized that bonus events need to be substantial. Make the bonuses a BONUS and you will have players flocking back to the game. Just imagine the player spike if you did a 50% XP bonus weekend...

    Yes, you should be more patient and then while you're waiting they'll turn off sagas and by the time they're turned back on you'll have lost your progress.

    It's all in how you look at it. Sometimes the glass is half empty, sometimes some bastard steals your mf glass!

    It's kinda funny, because I got to cap crafting on one toon last week, and gain a bunch of levels on another, and I'm in a small guild, so every little bit helps. I like these bonuses!

    You completely misconstrued my post.

    I won't complain about anything that is free. If I go to a bar and they give me a free drink, do I complain that it is not expensive cognac?

    Nope. I say, "Awesome. Thank you very much."
