EVENTS
Let’s face it, some people eventually just get tired, and even strained from the massive amount of clicking required to complete or do many main objectives in pokeheroes. I’m trying to aim and solve this issue while not entirely removing the aspect of interaction we know and love!

For event distributions, I see a few potential changes for the methods of gaining EP:

Interacting: 700 EP (Lowered from 750)

Game Center: 100 EP (Raised from 50)

NEW: Gardening: 120 EP (Replaces Battling, 1 EP for every Berry you harvest at the Berrygarden)

NEW: Wild: 100 EP (Replaces rumbling, 2-10 EP for finding eggs in the wild, rarer eggs give more EP, 4 EP for catching a pokemon at the honeytree, 2 EP for every pokemon you adopt at the safari zone, still gives you 1 EP for every Item found while rumbling)

Social: 80 EP (Raised from 50, Now also gives 5 EP for making a trade at the GTS, available once an hour, gives 1 EP for every 150 PD spent at the Item market)

Other: 100 (You can now also get 5-10 EP for battling)

No support. Yes, it does have some benefits but I’m not going to support a suggestion that would actively sabotage me. I get EP exclusively from clicking because of how unreliable the other sources are, meaning I’d lose 150 EP per hour if this was implemented.

I think interacting should not be changed. I mainly only do 250 berry interactions every hour n nothing else during event distributions.
Otherwise, supporting this idea. Its quite a bummer how event distributions are just "interacting every hour" in disguise.

I support it but like @~razpberry I think interacting should be kept the same, just that the others need to be buffed.

That's kinda what I was contemplating honestly

Maybe I could change Other form 200 to 100 to bring it back up to 700?

That could work. I think another issue that needs to be tackled is what activities count and decrease the amount of them. For example, you propose 5 EP for one trade, which basically makes a trade on par with feeding 1-2 pokemon a berry. IMO trading could easily go to 40 or something, especially if it's just once an hour.

I think the biggest problem is that doing 250 interactions is so much easier than spending time at the game center or making forum posts. It all needs to be rebalanced to provide alternatives that don't require more effort for the same (or less) gain.

But then if that was the case you'd need to consider the fact that people would spam trades, which would defeat the whole purpose of it being so low.

Maybe It could be raised to 10, but 40 would honestly be way to high.

(Also for gardening I'm not talking about feeding berries, I'm talking about harvesting them at the berrygarden)

But you said it should only be 1 trade an hour, which would mean it couldn't be spammed. Unless I'm misreading it. If it's only 1 an hour, 40/750 points is perfectly fine, maybe even too low, that's just 5%. If you can do multiple, yeah, it should be lower.

By feeding 1-2 berries I mean interacting. You only need to feed 250 berries to get 750 points, so any alternatives need to be a) around the same level of effort as clicking 250 times, which they're currently not, or b) interacting/feeding needs to be nerfed (which lots of people won't be happy with).

I agree with everything else, but interaction should be kept at 750. Making 50 berry clicks for 150 EP takes less than a minute. The only alternatives that don't involve mandatory waiting, from what I see, would only be spending PD at IM which still only gives 80 points max and requires you to spend 12k. I don't think that making the click cap lower by 150 would be a fair exchange for all the other things.

The point of this is to try and minimalist it a bit so we can do other things to obtain it as well, since like razp said, they're basically just interaction every hour

It's also meant to replace the ones people don't use, like battling and give more to the ones that legitimately need a buff like rumble (since let's be fair who in their right mind does 5 minute rumbles? We all go for 6 or 12 don't even deny it 😂😂)

As for IM, it's kinda just a nice bonus if you were planning on buying something, it's not entirely meant to be every hour unless you absolutely want to

(Also I didn't know about the berry thing that sounds pretty useful

My main issue is that it would make harder for people to get EP and therefore events. Possibly lower the event point requirement if this were to get implemented? Yes, events are just clicking, but it's because all the other sources kinda suck. I have a feeling that this would annoy a lot of people.

If it was lowered to 700 then you'd only be losing 50, so it's not too much of a loss, this is also in part trying to encourage people to do other things other than interactions

Honestly, I’m fine with it being a cap of 700. 600 feels like too much of a nerf, though.

I'm more of wanting interactions to be increased cause most of the time I interact for event distribution 😂
1000 will be great XD

You get powerorbs, pd and GGC to encourage you to interact.

The whole point of it is to try to get other ways to do it other than only interactions 😭😭😭

At that point it's basically just giving in XD

I really like the idea of adding garden and wild but I don't want anything to be removed or decreased 😅

I just generally think Wild is kind of unbalanced. 10 max, which I assume would be for a 30 or more minute wait egg, can take multiple hours and getting 10 of them to fill it up can take a day or more, it's not a goal for a single hour. The non-interaction bars are already quite difficult to fill, but this one would be straight up impossible, and I do mean it.

A three minute egg (which I assume is the least you can go without Egg Radar nugget upgrade) seems like the best choice for it with a 2 points for 3 minutes of waiting. For the highest waiting time egg to be worth as many points, it'd have to be 15 minutes, which I know it's not. This means you'd be able to get 20 easy eggs or 40 points at max, and that's assuming you'll get every single egg perfectly, meaning you have to hit a 1/9 chance right every time, 20 times in a row. If you have Egg Radar+, this would technically be 40 eggs or 80 points if you get all of them right, somehow. This goal is literally impossible due to the time it takes.

A bit of a rant, but I just felt like I need to say that no one would be able to do it.

The EP for the wild could be a bit more higher cause it's quite low. It should give you an amount that will convince people to do it. If it's too low, less people are likely to do it since they have to claim the egg/pokemon.

I don't think they won't mind about garden since some people use gardening to get berries for interaction .
