Flags - Guarding the Fort

DeletedUser

How long did you have to "Guard the Fort" before you actually got a flag?

I've spent probably 20 hours, using premium to get Higher Income and Double Character Bonus (Adventurer). I've had to walk off and let motivation come back up 3 times now. Have I just not done it long enough or am I missing something? (I don't do a job when motivation falls below 90)

that is surprising, I also use premium and have found it anywhere from 3 - 13 hours, once I got 2 in like 4 hours. :)

I suggest go to town church pray, do 4 hours, wait until job motivation returns to 100% [about 26 hours], than repeat until you get it.

On the other hand I have had to work 7 hours to end up with 2 raven feathers after the last job, despite it having a 30% product percentage per 30 minutes :-(

Once I got 2 notes number 2 in 4 hours of trading @ 2% chance

I don't know about the praying bit. A lot of players think certain things make them more lucky, and as far as I can tell, even praying hasn't been proven to give any actual advantage.

Just keep repeating the job with reasonable motivation. Took me maybe 16-18 hours but I got it before I got the quest, it's a good EXP job, so I don't see why it's so painful for people to keep doing more hours.

I found one on w4 in my first 2 hour job, no premiums. On w5, I'm still working on it after about 10 hours, no premiums.

Well a thread about this infamous quest was one of the first I read when I joined the forums, and now I am doing the quest I see what all the fuss is about. I said to myself I'd either get it first try or it would take ages, and I didn't get it first try...

What I seriously like is the variety and randomness and combinations this quest throws up.

I've only just reached this quest now and have attempted it for 2 hours.
Will report back...

;) :cool:

make sure your motivation is high, otherwise your chances will keep decreasing.

i usually stop when it goes past 80%

u could have faith and pray before doing it.

11 hours later and I found a flag!

My motivation had dropped and I eventually stopped the job. Until it reached 100% motivation again on Friday.

Voila!

Got it!

;) :cool:
