If since novemeber update you have killed Kumhau and all the other Naakuals all over again, including the upgraded Achuka/Tchakka and Colkhab(new titles for all 3) you get to pick one 115 item or bayld/KI. Can't pick old NQ items.

Only items that you can pick are NEW weapons and NEW armor. No accessories.

For whatever it's worth, the original WKR reward selection is still there if you never claimed it before.

I was able to pick a new 115 item without a Yumcax win since the items were added so looks like you just need kumhau and the 3 new tiles from shark/bee/trex.

Question about the Courier coalition "Frontier Support" assignment, the one where you have to bring supplies back FROM the Frontier station TO the coalition HQ.
When is the assignment considered complete, since you don't get the typical message?
The second you zone into town, or the second you tack to the desk NPC?
I wanted to change my job once I'm back in town, but I didn't wanna risk voiding the assignment by changing job.

I don't know the exact answer to your question because I've never "risked" using waypoints in town when doing one, but changing jobs is OK.

Just so this is a little more clear, you still need the Yumcax KI before you can get the second set of 115 items. You just don't need to kill it a second time.

[Hitou]

Yeah sorry, you need all previous KI and the new 3 titles + Kumhau's KI to pick one of the new i115 things. Don't need to kill hurkan or yumcax twice. Unsure if you need to get the quest/assignment rewards first as I already had them (max imp increase/imp recast reduction.)

Is there a "cap" on the EXP you get from assignments when you swap jobs?
Like that you cannot gain more than one level at the same time form the same assignment?
This is what happened to me twice in a row. Numbers are completely made up for the sake of example.

I'm 2000/6000 for level 50, level 51 will require 8000 exp.
I do an assignment that should grant me >16k XP and I end up as 7999/8000 for 51.

I gained one level, and then further XP stopped being added 1 point away from a second level up.
Is this just a coincidence or is the system created this way?

[solkanar]

That's just how the system is. I learned it the hard way bringing up some lower jobs. You cannot gain more than one level at a time from assignments, will always stop at 1 away from 2nd level.

[Lyramion]

Ya, somehow get 1 exp to max your gains I'd suggest.

System is capped at gaining one level max from the assignment.. So no matter how much exp u gain, if u could gain more than 1 level from it, it will instead cap at 1 tnl to the second level. It's very obvious when u turn in assignments on like lv1 characters

[klvino]

When turning in assignments, you alternate from high yield to low yield to high yield.

High yield will trip a lvl up, then instead of burning another high yield to trip a 1 exp lvl up, turn in a low yield which will unlikely get you TNL. The low yield will leave an exp gap TNL which can be compensated by turning in another high yield, filling the gap, tripping lvl up and filling cap on next level ideally with 1 exp TNL.

[dasva]

It's not even an assignment thing. You cannot gain more than 1 level from any single source period. Granted outside of assignments this doesn't happen as much but you could see it at low levels chaining Ts and such during this double xp campaign especially if you used rings too. Or like the quest for the pre soa waypoint crystal things. As far as I know it's always been this way just normally don't run into it since there are few sources of xp that can grant that much at once

[NynJa]

the CoP BCNM's, if you were getting a lv1-5 through, you'll hit the xp cap as well. Its always been like that, this isnt new.

[Fwahm]

When leveling my lowbie jobs from assignments, I'd do a big assignment to get 1 tnl, then take rune to sandy and stab a rabbit/orc (depending on my level). By the time orcs no longer gave exp, assignments no longer auto-capped my tnl.

[NynJa]

If youre multiboxing, even killing a mandy outside will grant lv2 1xp

[dasva]

So the allaince shirt +1 actually increases how much you can sell to npcs in adoulin too. But it doesn't work in gardens. And it's only 1.2% so not really sure it's worth the time running back to an npc vendor outside to get that and still less than what you get in home nations with max fame

[noodles355]

Is there a factor that affects cape drops in Reives? Been farming 2box whm+thf, meleeing to 75 > wait for eval > 50 > eval > 25 > eval > 1 >eval > kill method. Both main and mule are getting same bayld/exp (maybe like 1~2 different sometimes), but so far my main has gotten 6 capes and my mule hasn't seen one. Is that just bad luck? Mule has less assignments/fame/wkr clears etc.

[dasva]

Seems a bit random. I used to do some tribox bst on reives while I do other stuff and my one with just 99 pets completely afk would get the same amount of capes as the one using 113 pets and spaming jas/spells

[Ophannus]

Some coalitions don't have an assignment for legend rank right?
