    You've taught me something I didn't realize, thank you :) When we did it in the early days there were no waypoints, while there was a forum competition to find them all, so awesome to hear they added waypoints to the mission later (even if some are a little off it seems).

    The idea for these missions is that you need to hunt around to find the interns. The text in the mission does say that here are the last known locations and you'll need to look around the area to find them. Just adds a little bit more challenge. They are all very close to the waypoints provided.

    Yes, I say that I would have to look around, no problem, then said to myself, why not ask friends in the forum for some help. Time is money. But, I do have one question, no reward? Why do missions that do not offer a reward? Just wondering?

    That particular mission seems to be all about newcomers exploring and seeing more of the planet, so the only reward is really that experience you gain, learning about mobs, collecting nearby tps, etc, and of course fun :) It might even encourage them to find the forum and read the back story, since it is a part of that as well. For older players that may not be so exciting, but I don't think it was designed for them much. No idea if a more solid reward is maybe coming in future, but I like the 'general introduction' to the planet it gives, a type of mission found in every other mmo I've played as well.

    agreed,
    but.. many other games have rewards for quests, this quest compared to other quests in other games rewards really little for the trouble.
    i can understand how people get frustrated over this, as i've been with calypso with all the nova and blazer fragments.
    If arkadia cannot give out item or skill rewards for that kind of quests, i believe there should be some unlock to a bigger mission chain.
    perhaps after you've finished that quest you get a vip pass to the exploration room celeste and you can start new mission chains from there.

    just an idea, but that would reward and connect the dots for a player.

    Yes, the continuation of the story is a nice reward in itself :)

    true, but why only reward 5 players for a quest which thousands complete..
    i don't expect anything valuable since then you would have noob grinders getting that small value and sell it all the time.
    just something to continue, or perhaps another useless item which is fun to have.

    This is a great idea and yes, we will look into having it linked to a bigger mission chain.

    Thanks for the suggestion.
