Trials and Crates

[AvatarTBS]

I'm pretty confused at the Trials quest and its connection to the upcoming Crafting event. To get the Materials crate, we have to finish a Level 3 three-day quest in ONE day? What happens if you don't finish it in a day? Will the timer reset? I've read the quest description a few times now, but the run-on sentence is rather hard to understand.

"Earn a Materials Crate each day a Trial is complete at Level 3 or higher until the Raze the Dead conquest event." Then there is a timer counting down from 24 hours. Does a Trial have to be completed in 24 hours to count? Or is it limiting how many Crates you can potentially receive in a day? I just don't quite understand the wording.

Also, can you give us an idea of how many Crates worth of items we'll need to craft something when that quest begins? I understand wanting to keep certain things a surprise. However, defeating a Level 3 trial or higher in 24 hours is going to cost some serious RL cash. It'd be helpful to know the minimum and maximum supplies we'll need to participate in the crafting quest. Otherwise, MANY people are going to either feel left out because they didn't gather enough materials in time or upset because they used tons of gems and gathered too many. Either way, it'd be nice to have a general goal to hit so we can all at least try to participate in this quest. I suspect it'd help avoid a lot of problems and complaints in the coming weeks.

Thanks in advance! :)

My guess is that individual part of trials last 24 hours every day for 16 days.So everyday you have a chance to win one crate,those crates and elements in them will be used for crafting(again i am guessing)http://i1323.photobucket.com/albums/u591/titan1978/FD55510C-8833-4EB8-93AF-A817EC57998D_zpsyfhlaqf8.png (http://s1323.photobucket.com/user/titan1978/media/FD55510C-8833-4EB8-93AF-A817EC57998D_zpsyfhlaqf8.png.html)http://i1323.photobucket.com/albums/u591/titan1978/BDC64AFE-83C0-40BD-B015-83A5CCBFD265_zpsulo2ouv0.png (http://s1323.photobucket.com/user/titan1978/media/BDC64AFE-83C0-40BD-B015-83A5CCBFD265_zpsulo2ouv0.png.html)

Yes, why inform the players before new things get introduced and how they will work? I really love Players Appreciation Month so far. :rolleyes:

it appears titanium ore is the only true rare one

I'm guessing that in that 16 day period mentioned by DragCro, every time you finish a trial you get a crate... if it takes 3 days to complete a trial, you'll probably end up with 5 crates... if you can burn through a 3 day with gems, then probably you end up with 16...

Btw, it is player appreciation month...dont make me laugh! Only need to pay more gems now to finish the gltq heroic quest! In fact, even those new quests where you can earn something, need to be finished in 24 hours! Undoable without gems! So much for player appreciation month

So why the timer?? If u finish in 22 hours , do u need to wait 2 hours to start another

My Bad, misread the post

Yes you can start a new trial as soon as you finish one, but you need to finish it when the the new Trial goal appears to get the crate

[Dogs Pizza]

you can start at any time, just need to finish it while the quest is up

Is there a way to "quit" a trial? I'm not going to finish the one that is going now before the 24 hour timer. I'd like to end this trial and try again when the next 24 hour trial goal launches.

You cant stop a trial,you need to finish it..It will count if you finish it when new 24 trial starts,but you need to finish it when the quest is live

No , you can't quit a trial - gree actually said this .

[plavine]

So what do these seemingly useless metals do???

Hoping that they have to do with the crafting that Gree has been mentioning on the popups discussing Customer Appreciation...
