Dares of Eternity Double XP, Please ;)

Hi, I really liked the new activity Dares of Eternity. However, getting to rank 16 to get Forerunner catalyst takes a really long time. While it keeps me motivated to play the activity, the eagerness to obtain the rewards makes me play it in a rush. I feel like this would be an activity I would very much be interested in repeating. However, due to the necessary grind to get the reward I really care about, I feel I will be tired of playing it once I get what I want. I am leaving a suggestion for us to get some kind of XP boost, so we don´t get a DoE burnout. Cheers

  • Could be fun! Don't know if we have the ability right now, but could whisper this in to a few ears to see if folks are interested. Can't make promises - but the feedback will be passed along.

    • When Dares dropped, I loved it. It was so fun and the dialogue was funny. But I'm on my second week (playing all weekend both weeks) of grinding it for the level 16 rewards, I'm only at rank 13, and I seriously don't want want to play it anymore. The steep level of grind has turned something I loved into a chore. To be clear, your development team did an excellent job of designing a fun activity; the only problem is the ranking is so slow, it is punishing. It would be great if we could spend strange coins to get an xp boost. Or if week 2 was double points. Anything to make this less grindy. Your hardcore players should be able to knock it out in a week. Your dedicated players should knock it out by the second weekend.

    • The bounties from Xur should give rep for DoE. More incentive to do both of them

      • This activity will be around for at least a year and you expect to be done with in in one week? Just because you want to speedrun the game doesn’t mean they should change it to cater to you.

        • Just more of the same, another boring game mode. They can’t even give these modes new bosses to fight. Oh yay, another reskined super enlarged boss, with more of the same mechanics.

        • No, not until they fix the prominent hard crashes affecting the game.

          • For people like me that can't play a gazillion hours everyday because we have real jobs and life (I'm talking to you streamers - that's NOT a job even if you do make more then many!) Sorry (not) anyways - Just like strikes, gambit and crucible you do get more points each consecutive Dares you run up to 5 where you are capped at. It's something like an additional 60pts. Not much but it does add up. But really, if I make it to 5 that's over an hours play time (roughly 14-15minutes per) and so, for me, not likely to grind much past 5 at any one time.

            [quote] However, due to the necessary grind to get the reward I really care about, I feel I will be tired of playing it once I get what I want. [/quote] And double XP is going to solve what? You're playing the mode because you want [i]loot[/i]. Nevermind how the arenas look, the activities, the quips, lines, etc. All of that is moot because loot. And after you get what you want...double XP magically makes you interested again. 🤦🏻 This community.

            I just think the bounties should be worth rep.

              • 50ish runs in and I’m at 14.5. I’m afraid that I will burnout on this activity. At least it is a super easy way to earn dawning ingredients, if you’re on that grind.

              • Finished it all 16 ranks on the 11th, never going back. That grind burned me out on that activity. Was a chore and not a fun experience.

                • was on break til friend got the 30th anni and asked me to come back. didn't want to fully commit so tried the free version. i don't know, all the free stuff that you get to play was great. the 6man, halo mag, br, legend tracer, and sword are all good. but after a day of chasing and getting the weapons (no god roll) and trying it out, i find myself losing interest. the 6man is fun, but again after a couple runs i find myself not wanting to do it again. only rank 4 and to get the catalyst and ship is 16...damn lol. no effin way. and even though the new weapons are nice, outside the new 6man it'll be the same activities i've been doing for the pass seasons. 30th will get you 4 or so new weapons (which all not interested in), dungeon (heard it's great, but like the 6man it'll get old), gjallarhorn (no attachment to this exotic), and cosmetics which i don't care about. so gonna have to pass and go back on my break. but i do think that they should at least on weekends or whatever have a double xp special or something. cuz like i said, though it's fun, it'll get old fast.

                  • It took me 72 times playing fbe activity without xp boosts and bounty rep points. It's a grind. Flying the space rock is pretty cool though.

                        Yeah I've 36 DoE and I'm only rank 10. not looking forward to another 70 for a ship. I can't spend hours doing the same thing in one sitting.

                        • Really its not so bad as it stands. I hit 16 last Sunday but i do play a lot more then most (90+ runs to max it). I found the xp is the same on legend vs normal after you have run a few consecutive runs to get the streak going...186 or something like that. Once the rhythm is in it goes very quick especially if you are combining gunsmith bounties or other things with it. Worst thing would be to hit the max rank but then not have enough keys to open all the chests. I used it to do arbalest, gally, and forerunner catalyst completions and pick up every bounty i can around the game.

                          • It’s meant to be a celebration, not a deep mine coal face with a blunt pickaxe Frankly, it’s outrageous that both the [b]IX[/b] & [b]Star horse[/b] (now known as [i]Twinkle of the Nine[/i]) bounties weren’t giving out reputation for completions anyway Who @Bunj came up with that way to kill the hamster?
