Thread: Super Server Hell and the Illusive Medal

    Default Super Server Hell and the Illusive Medal

    Well Evony have done it again - not satisfied with crippling farming to feed armies, inconsistent policies, and poor customer service they have now made medal hunting even worse. It was always dull and boring, but at least you had some idea where to look and what you'd find.

    One reason I?ve heard for the new abysmal drop rate is to make it more rewarding getting to Prinz - your joking right? How can it be rewarding if you hit a lvl 10 valley a 100 times and get a cross medal, and a couple of roses?
    At least in the old days you knew if you needed a nation or justice you had to hit a level 10 NPC. A wisdom, courage or freedom you need to hit level 5s and valleys for the rest.
    The new system is heavily biased in the favor of veteran players - who should have medal stocks, after all if you've been hitting level 10s for the last 5 or so months you probably have between 400 - 1000 nation medals sitting in your items box.
    Wake up Evony - what are medals used for - not just title, but persuading heroes. A hero can cost a massive number of medals to persuade - exactly how long do you think it's going to take to get 36 nations with your crumby new system? The poor heros going to have died from old age be the time I have enough.

    On a more positive note anyone know what valleys have an increased chance of getting a nation or is it totally random?

    I'm sorry to hear that you have received poor customer service. What experience did you have with customer service that was negative, and what can I do to remedy that?

    To be perfectly honest I think the medal drops rates on the SS have either been increased or i've just been getting extremely lucky. I've been hitting lvl 10 flats and valleys just to capture them and have been getting a medal probably 20% of the time. Everything from cross up to Wisdoms, courage and honor. I've been mostly getting Wisdom and Courage..

    Default Medal Drops

    Low end medal drops seem to have increased, honor and rose especially, but Nations and Justices seem as rare as hens teeth.

    Re: Customer Service
    FoxyBunny is very prompt at replying to PMs, and the forum staff generally try to be helpful when they can.
    The same cannot be said about evony staff replying to tech issues or account issues.

    Note this thread is about Medal Drops not customer service so please only stuff about where to find the elusive medal (nations in particular) on SUPER SEVERS.

    Early on, in SS9, I picked up a Nation medal on a level 10 flat. Also a ammy on a level 10 Forrest. I was surprised. However I have not seen another medal again.

    I hit 2 lvl 10 valleys to make NPCs yesterday and got a wisdom and a cross on ss3. NPCs do not drop medals anymore. Valleys/flats do. It takes an adjustment and you'll have to think twice before persuading any good hero that comes your way, but it's doable I just wish they dropped more mscripts.

    Lately on Server 87, the valleys aren't even dropping medals, and this started happening about 3 server maintenances ago.

    I'm praying they start again, because now I have no idea where to get Justice Medals now that the npcs aren't dropping them either - we had to hit 10s just to get them, and now they are only dropping holy waters, speakers, mich scripts and merchant fleets (a whole other can of worms, when npcs used to drop a wider variety of items, including speedups).
