Excellent Start to Random Encounter Chances.

This is Great!

• Virtue Gear Glove Quests: While fighting in random encounters, sometimes killing low-tier animals will draw out high-tier creatures. And some of those times you'll meet a new person after those high-tier creatures are defeated. But whatever could they be doing in such a remote area? Whatever their reason for appearing, you might want to talk with them and see if they have a quest that results in something valuable! (Some of the quests offered by these characters will reward players with Truth, Love, and Courage gloves.)

Might I suggest that this is expanded upon for many random encounters with the CHANCE that "something" interesting MAY spawn at the end?

Anytime a chance is given for something great/good, you expand upon its uses. Instead of avoidance, people will seek out the random encounters more for a chance at "something". It can be as simple as decent chest dropping at the end after killing the troll that was aggravating the wolves.. Or the High level Bandit Leader that was initiating the bandit raid that started the encounter.

End the Undead one with a Lich or ritual summoning...

Sometimes (50%) the encounter ends after wave 1... 25% of that time, the encounter ends at wave 2... 10% more you get the leader.. It can vary.

Great Work! Keep it up!

 

That is a good suggestion...which i encountered on the desert encounter. Only problem i am seeing now is there are very few random encounters. I have been running around for two hours looking for them and not seeing many at all....most have been the usual encounter nothing special. No added content at all

 

I like this addition a lot and the OP's ideas are all great. Ill actually be looking for random encounters now instead of avoiding them.

 

I did a corpion encounter a couple times. Pretty fun. Are there other encounters that progress like that? I tried skeletons, bandits and wolves but no luck.

 

Just keep up the good work and building upon them little by little!

 

Yes! I would love to see this feature expanded in many ways, good start!

 

I think this is a reasonable direction to pursue so long as we don't get into the realm of having to *grind* random encounters because the NPC spawn chance is next to zero. Otherwise I like the concept and the added purpose to this otherwise under-utilized game resource.

 

I think that an issue with QA. I see encounters all the time on live. But the new QA not so much.

 

Absolutely, will be in today

 

I did Wolves and Corpions and they both ended winning a Virtue piece. I like this very much, it is fun and can be challenging.

 

Did you get the leather gloves? If so, can you post a screenshot of the tooltip? I did that one the first day of QA and it was bugged, so I never got the gloves.

 

I got the gauntlets. I will post a picture when I get back.

Opps wrong picture Try this one. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4517/38243321364_71c74df6a7_h.jpg

 

I was able to get the iron gauntlets and cloth gloves, just not the leather gloves (because the game thinks that it already gave them to me).

 

I've done wolves a couple times and no progression was there...

 

Wolves only seem to be 'forest road' so far.
