Do we know how much EP you get from the "Global achievements" category?
I noticed there are two categories of prizes.
Global Achievements (EP is a possible reward there) and Personal Achievements (EP is a possible reward there for Gold tier).

I expect both of those to be ~10k EP but wonder if anybody has more accurate data.

where are you seeing them as a global reward? the only mention of Exemplar Points on the current Vana'Bout page is under Personal Rewards Gold Tier.

"Check Overall Rewards" from when you talk to the Coordinator Moogle. It's not actually mentioned at all on the official info.

It's remained at 10,000 EXP / EP since the start; if you select it, it warns you that you can only obtain rewards from this category once, so I've declined in case something is added when we hit the target or bonus.

ahh, that would be why. I looked at the objectives list and said "this is not worth my time" and left it at that.

They should ask for region specific rewards so the foreign scum can't *** it up.

Don't be mistaken though, it's still a crazy low number, only 1700 participate daily. Which is very small, just double every other region.

76,000 Active Characters, of which 4000 are doing the daily.
That means 95% of the active characters are bots and/or mules and/or multiboxes

Does anyone have the current memloc? I was going to do some Prime ODD/ODT testing, but I can't find a working memloc for kparser.

Its not impossible to just use logs, or the logging function from the parse addon, but the format kparser uses for offense details is a lot more compact and better for posting your source data without it being a thousand lines long. <,<;

Nearly impossible, but not zero, sure.

Dignity, self respect, intelligence, aren't traits of the mmo audience.

Its a great feeling to log in during a free login period only to realize you left your enmity set, fast cast set, and empy +3 sets in a wardrobe you don't have access to unless you pay for a sub. XD

Atleast I can still play with the other poors on HorizonXI ...

I'm joking of course, I'll end up bringing back my main character for a month with wardrobes 3,4,5 >.>

I trust in myself to continue doing content I enjoy. I also trust that SE will see this as a clear statement that Vana'Bout ain't it.


Carry on Stanley.

You had the chance to coin a fly term, but you didn't see the vision. I'll take the alley oop and finish the play

"Vana'Aint it"
(I'm here all day)

Initially went with Vana'Doubt for the sake of rhyme and how unreasonable the initial goal was.


We know they're tracking the metric based on the quiz Gorpa gives us. We're probably correct in assuming the initial goal being based on prior participation.


In full disclosure, I have no need for ambuscade nor am I motivated to participate in Vana'Doubt for any of it's rewards. I'm not trying to come across as making some great sacrifice for the greater good. The only satisfaction I take away from this is the irony that the best message to send here is no message at all.

Abusescade can suck it. I turned my sub on to *** on the official forums and buy a lottery ticket.

Cross the 4m win condition at noon today. Stans should be in the gold range today too, time to be disappointed with your 13k exemplar points.

Me and at least 12 more people in my various LSs, most of which multiboxers, have entirely given up on this because we cannot login daily and/or we cannot or don't feel like doing this one very annoying daily chore. That's at least 20 characters not taking part in it at all. I suspect there's many more like us than anybody thinks.

My group has approx 12 chars between us and none of us have bothered with Ambu aside from our usual monthly static intense runs for the essential currencies. Definitely don't think we're in the minority.

I'm particularly dense sometimes, so I didn't realize until just this morning that the stretch goals extend the duration of all the monthly campaigns - not just extending vana'bout.

As someone that only plays several months out of the year, that's actually a very welcome thing... but not welcome enough for me to grind beyond the deed amount on my main.

it's not worth it for us to break our backs grinding this garbage on the gamble that the following month's campaigns won't suck balls and worth extending for 3/6 days. sure, they could give us Statue Crusher Plus, or they could give us Chocobo Digging. expecting people to grind a solid 30+ min a day, every day, for two weeks on the hope it is something like the former instead of the latter is simply too high of an ask, and that is before taking into consideration that the current "rewards" are absolute dog ***.

Recently took Blu up so need the five ambu backs or whatever. But in general over the past three years I've ignored ambuscade completely. This campaign doesn't change anything in my mind. Sure 100 deeds would push me over the cap and I could reset, but whatever, dailies in a video game aren't on my daily real life radar. Get with the program SE. Your audience is me.

Are the global, server-wide, rewards going to last forever? Or is this like a ‘limited time’ thing?
