Friday Feature Chronicle Master System Salute - 01/08/2010
<!-- .style1 {color: #990000} -->
Greetings Galactic Citizens!
As many of you are aware, the Chronicles system and the Chronicle Master profession, have both seen a great deal of play and excitement since they launched. With millions of Chronicle Holocrons created in just the first month, players of all types have been enjoying both the fun of creating them as well as the great rewards available for completing the quests. The SWG development team is already working on some amazing updates for this system, including the addition of Performance and Spawn relics, which will enhance the experience for everyone.
In this feature, I have included some great data and statistics on the Chronicle Master system including the top rated Chroniclers and the top Gold Token earners. These statistics will be posted regularly, much like the Salute to the Officers, to add a fun new aspect to working with Chronicles. A big thanks to the development team for helping to put this all together, and congratulations to all the top achievers! The enthusiasm that many community members have for this new feature is really extraordinary, and the future looks very bright for both Chronicle Masters. We would also like to thank Leyah, our Chronicle Master Senator, for her help with this weeks Friday Feature. So how did we come up with these metrics?
A "gold quality quest" is a quest that features a gold token as the reward for its completion. Typically these quests include a variety of tasks and they are more challenging for the Chronicler to create and for the participant to complete than quests.
Most gold quality quests created
Players are ranked based on the most gold quality quests created.
Players who completed the most gold quality quests
Players are ranked based on the most gold quality quests completed.
Highest rated Chronicler
Players are ranked based on their in-game ranking plus a value based on the number of gold quality quests completed by other players. For example, say a player has an in-game ranking of 9.5 and has a few thousand gold quality quests completed by other players. That players ranking would be higher than another players whose in-game ranking is 9.8 but only had a few hundred gold quality quests completed by other players.
