Problem: No matter what guild quest is done we are able to obtain only 5 essence of Fury per quest. With insane requirements PA has put on us with crafting guild furniture to obtain manufacture knowledge in "H" window it is nearly impossible to fill this as someone in the active guild with actual people in it.

  • First of all essences of fury are much needed for crafting actual buffs people are using which is AP buffs so part of grind for Furies has to go on that.,
  • Second, sheer amount of them needed is insane considered cap how many can we obtain per day. So max amount of guild quests doable per day is 10 Each Quest gives 5 essence of fury regardless of the quest size Life quests give total of 0, which is also insanely unfair on life-skill guilds who require same material to provide life buffs to their own guildies,
  • With this in mind its possible to gather 50 essence of fury per day at complete Max quests done IF all quests were combat quests which often are not,
  • Required amount of essence of Fury per ONE PERSON is over 4000 to get all knowledge entries,

which means guild would have to grind over 80 days, which is almost 4 months of guild quests without ever crafting any actual buffs AND never taking ANY Life skill quests.

  • My guild for example is normal active PvE guild and by chance we got total of 5 completionists in the guild.,
  • With set rules as above we are basically never ending this as there is simply not enough resources for everyone.,

Suggestion: Adjust amount of essence of fury per guild quest so the knowledge grind gets actually doable, Also add essence of Fury to the Life missions so we don't have to pick missions only based on those that give the resources for guild furniture crafting. Or reduce amount of essence of Fury required for the Guild furniture crafts.

I agre, though I think a better solution would be to just offer the knowledges for energy at an NPC. You said you need 4000 Essence of Fury to make all furniture, and 95% of that is absolutely useless and ends up in the trash anyways. So many resources wasted to just end up in the dump, its actually baffling. These knowledges should be obtainable like trade item knowledge are now.

Lol completionists. I always wonder about these guys. Do you have to finish everything? Can you ever quit a game? If you do quit and that game has an expansion do you gotta go back? For bdo theres alot of titles that are impossible to get. How do you deal with that? Do you gotta buy all the pearl outfits for the title? Do you gotta get S knowledge on everything? Get all treasure items? Get Guru 100 on everything now?Obviously your solution is easy. Ask who else in guild is a completionist then /gkick. And I'm someone who also did all the old guild crafting knowledge  and I went and got all the trade knowledge where you went to ea trade guy and clicked um to get knowledge but come on suggest changes for normal players not some obsessive compusive dude who says hes a completionist in a game that's impossible to 100 percent.

Thing is there is a lot of us who play as completionists, and yes for me its "H" journal which is available to complete to have all blue and all mobs S grade with only 2 or 3 exeptions. Its not ideal but some of us actually do all game has to offer and not only run in circles. We also do need gear as we need to be able to obtain knowledge even from the hardest grindspots our motivation is just a bit different. If you yourself dont bother with content there is no need to say its good as is since i could say same about content you enjoy and i dont care about, "keep node wars broken" and i wouldnt do that as i know there are people who actually enjoyed those and im not judgemental about it.

The point is every single one of the completionist can't get everything in bdo. Do they have all the 1st set of trade knowledge cuz you can't get that anymore plus you could get c-s knowlege on those too. Do they got all the crystals you had to craft thats gone when they deleted them. I got all that and i'm not a completionist but I do like that sort of thing. So they are able to go oh that's too hard or I won't do that so some obscure guild crafting items like deal with or or find a guld that has 1000s of those just sitting in storage.

Now Bdo sure af shouldn't have a knowledge section for this at all. But since they do and you had to put up with my sarcasm the best solution I can come up with is this. After someone crafts it you put in in your guild manor and anyone can interact with it to obtain knowledge. That way guilds can assign one guy to craft and everyone can get knowledge
