I haven't run a challenge in years. Did they ever fix the kolbold ones???
Nope, 2 of them are still broken and can only be 4-starred
30% rewards boost last time, now 20%? Its challenges, so who cares, but what's with the continual decline in bonuses?

Last time I ran the lava caves versions they seemed fine, but I was going for max mats not trying 5-star them so I may have missed something.
The wife loves putting the little scamps to work collecting crystals, and what amuses her entertains me so we run them occasionally when we don't have anything specific going on.

I ran each one of these when they were first introduced just to see what they were. I figured out they were like crystal cove, which I despise, and have never touched them again. This plus capture the flag pvp should've been killswitched years ago. To each their own if they actually do run these.

A friendly note for anyone doing the estar challenges. Sometimes they bug out and don't complete when you're done. If you log out/back in, it'll complete on logging back in (be sure to log right back in, don't go AFK for 5 minutes while logged out or they'll reset).

If you have at least 3 people, the estar challenges are pretty good fast XP (druids) at 25, and still pretty good slightly slower very easy XP (war wizards, arena) for first time completion.
For those on the TR train without thousands of banked tokens, especially for non-reaper ready character, a good epic challenge run can get you 4-5 tokens worth of mats easily.

You dont even need 3 people to run estar challenges and they are good xp esp on an exp weekend, pretty fast and easy to do at higher levels.
odd, it seems that after the server restart we actually earn less rewards than before, I ran Dragon's Hoard twice to see if the bonus was still active and it not only didn't have the 20% extra (as expected) but actually gave me less than the usual amt of mats. The ratio is usually 58% of the score but I earned only 50% in both instances
