Yes, th3 focus chests have been pretty hit & miss.
The best was some 7k of Dec that I added some to the Guild.
Well done to get to Champion.
The changes are good for the sake of change. It forces changes in game approach & opens up some new ideas.
On an unrelated note, I notice more immersion & discussion about the Lore.
I think it would be cool to have secret clickables in different parts of pages, where you find a hidden chest because you were reading the Lore.
Treasure hunts are fun.
I agree. It seems that the disruption has made even experienced players, try different things.
I haven't got into the Lore of it yet - I just don't have the time! But I was thinking about it the other day and how for a lot of diehard gamers, it is very important that there is a story - as it kind of gives them a "why" they are doing it.
Plus some of the writing is good. Even funny sometimes, like the Gladiator card of, Hugo Strongsword...
"They say that Hugo was born with a sword in one hand, which he guided through the birth canal with such innate precision that the first life he saved was his own mother’s."
