And here’s the official announcement as of 11:00am PST:
Hey players! Do you like collecting various types of Norrathian… like Far Seas Ferrin? Well, then you’re in luck because until11:59PM PST on Sunday, March 1, 2015 you’ll earn DOUBLE alternative currency.
Note: This is in addition to the bonuses to alternative currency that All Access members get every day when they play EverQuest 2. That means that All Access members will get double DOUBLE tokens during this promotion.
This is a great opportunity to stock up on [eq2u]Far Seas Ferrin[/eq2u] or any other alternative currency you’ve been collecting in-game. We’re excited to offer this to our players, and we’ll see you in-game this weekend!
There was an update from Holly on twitter about the event on EU servers needing to be extended, but then it turns out EU servers patched this morning, so NEVAH MYND! 😉
totally worth taking all of your crafters through as many far seas trading company token quests as possible. start with the weekly and daily on every character and then do old timelines. TOTALLY worth the extra far seas tokens for blank runes
Technically it’s 3x the orginal for gold. So if you normally get 3 you get 9, not 12 (3x2x2).
I’ve been getting 12.
Confirmed, members are getting 4x base currency. On a daily quest rewarding 3 Ferrins, I got a message “You receive 9 extra Far Seas Ferrin due to Member and Server bonuses.”
Okay, so it’s 9 extra. My mistake I apparently missed the original award of 3.
A quest that awards say 3 ferrin is doubled for subscribers to 6. Then that 6 is doubled again this weekend. So subscribers get 12 total. F2P would only get the 3 and have it doubled to 6.
Um… I was told there’d be no math?
class..
Class….
WAKE UP!
Thank you
