I would like to thank those of you who ask the questions, and those of you who answer them.

I read something that causes me to stop and think before I publish my arc, because I hadn't even thought about the mission rewards. Tickets. I was just trying to make a couple of good missions and tell a short story. I never gave a moments thought to Lieutenants, Bosses or difficulty levels.
So, I thank you folks for helping me realize my mistake before I published. I must consider my audience.

In a perfect world you wouldn't need to. AE missions would award fair rewards no matter what you did. In this world, it's definetly something to consider .

In my opinion, in a perfect world you wouldn't need to because people would play AE for the story regardless of reward. I happen to be one who would still play AE if all exp and tickets were turned off.

Thank you everyone at Paragon and on Virtue. When the lights go out in November, you'll find me on Razor Bunny.

Honestly I think you're in the minority. I would still do some AE with no rewards but it would be solely for things like like testing builds or missions where I mindlessly mow down hordes of low level minions for giggles. Story is nice but if I want to read CoX fanfic there are much better options than the AE. Story + Rewards make the AE worth doing.

In a perfect world, I would play AE for story with no xp, and after playing an arc or two I would hit a "level up" button that would level me up and give me a bunch of play-moneys.

In this world though, where you still need XP to level and tickets to earn play-moneys, AE with no rewards would be mostly useless to people like me.
