[SilkiyTea]

Key/Character: SilkieTea
Which Event: four corners (public event)

Responsiveness: 
8/10. again this is a public event which was massive and ran by one person. it cannot be quick-paced.

Balance: 
N/A, as a public event there is no possible way to balance around the needs of everyone there. i cannot in good favor put a score on this.

Storytelling: 
10/10, i have no complaints here. it was very enjoyable from a story-tellers perspective.

Fairness: 
hello, this is where i will be upset.

the first boss

Lumin: rolled a 6 & a 5 he received a very neat unique dev flavored item.


Barrachan: rolled a 6 & something else, he received a cloak of some description. it was probably statless and just fluff but it was cute looking.

my character: rolled a 6 & a 6. i recieved. 2 nyeshk.

the second boss

we were all asked to roll and by the looc comment it seemed like it was for rewards. to my knowledge, nobody received a reward for the 2nd boss, even though some people rolled 6's, and i personally rolled a 5. i think i heard that this one was just to give people a higher roll for the secondary pool of non-rare items.

the third boss

people who rolled below 6 & 5's:
received random materials of varying degrees of use. tyrium, mythril, nyeshk, crystals, herbs, etc!

people who rolled 5's:
received an item that could be used as a material replacer. a friend who received one told me it could not be used for chirion, but maybe arcanium. they were not sure and considering the response in a criticism of four corners? i assume not. it is still a relatively niche item to be used as development or just in creating a potion or artificer gear on the fly without bothering to get a missing material.

people who rolled 6's:
recieved a free disguise with additional fluff that feels extremely powerful! two of them if i understand right, will make someone have two different disguises? five of them however, lets you buy a basic from any tree, i do assume this does not include things like shadow, light, occultism, cosmic, or holy! but i am not sure. it is still powerful. a very nice item overall.... if you choose to try and hunt down the other participants to try and obtain theirs. or go on an event to try to obtain more which will and should be a lot more dangerous to obtain.

injuries
at first there was no intent to give anyone injuries until someone spoke up. it is a public event, with a lot of surprisingly strong stuff involved! but it was a public event. i even joined late, because i thought i could just have fun with it. i did not even know there was a loot pool until we were told to roll.

when we got in a line for injuries, some of us rolled previous. kiastara rolled a 4, and i rolled a 4 too. i do not know if kiastara had to reroll when she got in front, but she pointed out and i do not remember seeing a second roll from her. i could be wrong here.

but if she did not have to reroll?

that means that i could have stuck with my 4 instead of the 1 i had received. there was no explicable statement saying that we could do that. in fact? someone, i do not know who, had said in looc to roll once you were in front of the dragon which had implied we had to reroll.

3/10

Overall: 21/30 
(Responsiveness: 8 + Storytelling: 10 + Fairness: 3 = 21/30) 
21/30 in grade format, is a C or 70%.

Any other comments:
although my jadedness feels entirely justified, and people i talked to seemed to show some sign of agreement in discord dms (no names will be displayed that is rude), it made me realize that i am taking this game way too seriously. the first boss rolls were the things that made upset, i rolled two 6's, and i got 2 nyeshk. people rolled in my same tier got a secondary number less than mine, and got unique little items. the injury rolls was not as agitating.

i would have preferred to have never rolled and gotten nothing except the enjoyment of the events storytelling and fights. than to feel like i was apart of a raid on an mmo where i rolled higher than someone, but the raid leader gave the nice items to someone else.
