I am just here to say that expanding options is what this is going to do, not saturate faction points.
right now having ONLY new horizons (which doesnt work so well anyway) as the ONLY way to do faction points (even if it IS 7000 per day for 99+ civ toons) is not enough.
ryzom hails itself as an mmo where you can do what you want, where you have options.... there are no options here. this is a forced and inefficient mechanism, that i love only because i HAVE to use it if i want my lovely sap crystals (sorry pvp points better spent on other things)
now for anyone who wants to contest my statement that it is forced and that i have to do it.... by saying hey you can just not-do it, i call you a troll and will not even reply to your words because i will not pass up one of the useful advantages in ryzom just because it is the only way to do it.... i will continue to do it, YOU can not-do it if you don't want to :P
i advocate increasing options for all (aligned non aligned whatever) more options are always good, as long as balance is maintained. i see no issue with a fair amount of faction points awarded for dapper missions hunting missions messenger missions etc, on the contrary i am sure it will make more homins try these things.
about 100 fame:
it is easier to get to +50 in 4 civs than 100 75 25 0 as an aligned homin, i have done both multiple times i am sure (not picking on anyone) but i agree it is not super hard to do either. so civ 100 rewards that are unique to that civ 100 are nice, but 200 total fame can have a reward too, (example, hominist unique faction reward) why not, you worked for it anyway. (yes someone may say hominist isnt a faction but don't be a troll :))
about balance and new content IF added:
there are some armor in merchant that are , as far as i know considered as junk by anyone with any sort of craft knowledge. they are 35% precraft armors with no HP/focus etc, boost.... so if you add any rewards for fame please don't put things like that.... i don't want a 35% precraft burning axe, it would be useless
fair stats, sure. whatever fair means, but not the fear of unbalancing ryzom by adding over-powered content, should not be so great that it produces junk items that only look nice and have little to no practical use (all the armor in the merchant) (anyone who wants to contest that it is useless... i will make you some armor :P)
