Are we getting more favor from achievements and quests?

Just wondering - I don't have any actual data.  But on my first go-round I was getting blocked on all the skill trees by needing those first emblems and having to make tons of donations to get them before I could go on learning.  If I remember correctly most of the giants were at the 2-400 favor level when I hit the emblem needed block.  This time I haven't yet progressed in any skills to where I need emblems to continue, but all my favor levels are in the 4-800 range.  So it's looking like in most cases I'll be near or at the emblem level by the time I need it for the skill.  So am I just playing a little differently somehow, or has TS tweaked the favor levels for the early quests, achievements and levels?

  • I have been going for long-duration skills, and have acquired/spent a couple of emblems so have been caning through favor at quite a rate.   I'm probably just used to the old me, with a ton of stuff to donate,  so it's probably not fair to say I'm not getting enough.

  • I'm not sure if they've changed it or if it was just that I donated so much more this time round, but first time round I took weeks to get a couple of emblems and was being held up on skill learning due to waiting for them. This time round I got my first emblems for all of the giants by Wednesday night.  
    I think maybe it was just the way I was playing this time round. I pretty much spent all my time donating this time, and it definitely paid off :)

  • Yeah,  I didn't know so much about favor/donating and all that shizzle before.

  • I'm not sure - I know that I blew some of my favor in my first go-round by speeding up learning (not knowing it would block me on other skills).

  • For the record, the only things I have donated so far are two music blocks.  So it's not donating that's made the difference for me.

  • Hawkwell, you may be leveling faster as well by doing less wandering and more concerted activity - leveling gives favor points.
