Gold and Glory weekends should change into whole weeks from now on

@fox-gr they already moved it to a weekend from a day.

edit (misunderstood OP for community weekend)

The majority of people are free during the weekend, this is why it’s set then. If people can’t play due to life commitments, then that’s on them, not Rare.

Hmmmm no. Always been weekends.

Gold & Glory | The Sea of Thieves Wiki

Gold & Glory is a special event where during its duration, players will earn double the usual Gold, Reputation and Seasonal Renown while playing the game. The reward earned by the Gold & Glory 2x...

@fox-gr it's definitely an excellent incentive👍🏻

@fox-gr good idea

@foambreaker exactly. And with the new level caps @Fox-GR brought up, that is only going to be worse. Having week long gold and glory events would definitely help make the grind more manageable in a way that wouldn’t be unfair to the players who have already done the current grinds.

😍 thia is my dream

@fox-gr my bad, I thought you meant community weekends. Still, my comment stands.

@foambreaker grinds aren’t meant to be rushed. The game will be around for years, the content will get done eventually.

@tesiccl The problem is they keep introducing these excessive grinds that no one wants. So double weekends is the only time it is even remotely worth the effort.

The real change they need to make is to speed up the long grinds by 2x, or even 4x. Permanently.

Of course once some people have done the grind it becomes hard to change. Rare is digging a hole it will be hard to get out of.

Speed up the long grinds by 2 or 4x?
Have we forgotten about that time the Hourglass level 1000 grind got made 3x harder?
I mean this should show that Rare isn't above changing the difficulty of grinds after people had already done them - they just aren't changing them into the direction you'd want I guess.
That said I think most of the grinds are fine, guilds could be a little easier, but the only thing I think that flat out shouldn't be there is the lv 9999 HG titles - that's a grind they shouldn't ask anyone to do.
If there is any problem with the grinds more broadly it's that there aren't enough cosmetics spread across them.
