Am I missing something?

Once you've received the badge for 151 emblems, is there any real reason to keep getting them?  It seems like you still keep earning favor on the leader boards and if one is still working towards skills you get way more time towards your skills by spending favor than you do by spending emblems.  By all means correct me if I am overlooking anything.

  • If you don't continue to believe in the Giants of Ur by collecting their special commemorative plates ad infinitum, they will cease to exist.

    Don't be the guy who killed the cool brain monsters because of hubris.

  • I don't see the point of intentionally donating to a shrine in order to get an emblem in your situation.  You can click on emblems in a bag to get mood, energy and xp, but not very much for the effort required.

    But due to the automatic favor you get for doing some things, getting certain achievements, etc., you will earn emblems without actively doing anything special.  But you have to collect them at a shrine, they don't automatically get sent to you.  At least this is my experience.  It appears that if you don't collect them at a shrine you stop getting favor for the associated god.  And the total favor needed to get an emblem doesn't increase until you get the emblem.

    I just noticed this a couple of days ago, so would appreciate either confirmation or errors pointed out.

    You are correct. If you do not claim the emblem you stop accruing favor with the Giant in question.

    @Deacon Jones

    I have a simple explanation as to why people would still collect beyond 151 emblems and even beyond collecting all 11 icons; bragging rights. ^_^
