Maybe it is just a bug that was fixed recently, but the mini-event where you escort the Dolyak to your keeps/towers doesn’t actually give you any experience or money. This gives very little incentive for a group of people to defend them.

They disabled it as people just ignored most other tasks and ‘farmed’ these.

In my opinion, there should be rewards, depending on events during the route:

  • If nothing happens, you get nothing.
  • If you attract monsters, you get nothing.
  • If scripted monsters attack the dolyaks or aggro on their own, killing them will get you little progress (minimim bronze if this happens just once)
  • Events though the route combine, increasing up to silver if not player enemies attack the dolyak.
  • For gold, you’ll need to defend the caravan from players at least once.

Well, they could make the expirience from it minimal, like killing a dolyak

However i agree this should be re-added, as of personal experience in the far shiverpeeks when we take SM you will keep seeing the other servers take supply camps or interupt supply incomming to prevent us from upgrading SM or building siege engines.

Usually during these times we coordinate players in smaller groups to escort the dolyaks, the groups attacking are usually small teams while the big zergs attack SM.

I haven’t escorted that much dolyaks, but the players that do should get some reward on it, otherwise many may just be like “i gain nothing so i do nothing”
They’d be much easier to coordinate with.
