Wilderness Rewards?

Could all of you Wilderness experts and adventurers alike help me out with deciphering this letter? I sent a question to the NC asking if there has been a change with the amount of Talent Points earned in an Adventure. Perhaps reading my letter and their response should help:

A few days ago, I have noticed that this is no longer the case -- it looks like the amount shown in the end is only the "total" that you have received from each of the Challenges. Is this only a recent change, or has it always been like this? I would like to plan my Adventures before flying into the Wilderness, so any answers that you may give will help greatly! Thank you for your time!

I can definitely understand the confusion about how Talent Points and ingredients are earned in the Wilderness. When you complete a task, an ingredient icon appears above your head. This is just to let you know what ingredient you will be earning when you're done the entire adventure. You don't actually collect it at that moment.

The same goes for talent points earned. You might get an indication letting you know how much you will earn, but you won't earn it then.

The reason you won't earn them until the end is to prevent Fairies from collecting ingredients or points if they haven't actually completed the adventure. Once you are done, though, you will earn everything you collected during your exciting adventure. Isn't that flaptastic?

I hope that clears up any confusion you might have. If it doesn't, or if you have any other questions or concerns, please let us know. We're always happy to help.

Hope your trails are dusty,
Okay, so.. As you may have noticed, I recorded the amounts of Talent Points received a while back, and created a chart for each type of trip. As you can see below, there is an amount shown that is received at the end of the Adventure, and then a "Total Talent Points" amount, which actually improved the Ratio, as it includes both the amount that you receive from all Challenges and a bonus for completing the whole Adventure:



The following image is one that I have calculated recently. The Ratios that are at the very top of the previous chart are applied here:



Basically, what I'm trying to say is, there is no longer a Bonus received for completing the whole Adventure. My main question was whether there has been a change in the Talent Points given out in the Wilderness, and it hasn't been answered at all, although I suppose I could have phrased my questions clearer.

What I have understood from their reply is that those Ingredients and Talent Points that you receive at the end of every Challenge are only given to you at the very end of an Adventure. However, I tried flying out of the Wilderness while not completing all of the tasks, and I still receive both the Ingredients and Talent Points that I have earned from the Challenges that I have done, which completely contradicts what they have written in their reply.

So, my questions to you all are: If you could remember, would you agree with the fact that there used to be a Bonus given out, or have my calculations gone completely astray? Also, what is your interpretation of their response? Perhaps I have not read it quite right. It would be very helpful if you could give your own opinions on this before I decide to send them another letter.

Apologies if this sound rather confusing, I myself was quite confuzzled after reading their letter. Even though this might not be a big deal for others, I'd really like to sort this out and any help will be greatly appreciated.

I was a bit confused But I'm pretty sure I've gotten the rewards every time after I complete a Challenge, and about 3 Talent Points each time too, not just after the end of the Adventure, so... Who's right? The Never Council or us?

Okay let me see if I get this right.

The talent points you do get as you go along, I think at the end
it just tells you how many you earned throughout your entire trip and
not as an added bonus. I think it has always been this way, but please
correct me if wrong.

I just flew in to check the ingredients and I did receive the ones that
appeared over my head in my pouch. Then I collected the bunch
of ingredients that are at the end of the trip and those were
added on top of the ones I received as I went through.

That is exactly what I have noticed Twi. Except, if it has always been this way, then it means that my previous calculations are completely wrong. Hang on, let me work this out..

Each Wilderness area has a set amount of Talent Points that you receive after each Challenge: 6 pts in Bubbly Bog, 8 pts in Silver Trees, and 9 pts in Never Mine.
In my older calculations, there has always been a set amount shown at the end of an Adventure, and it didn't add up with the points that you receive after each Challenge. So let's say that I finished a short trip in the Bubbly Bog, so that's 3 Challenges, each giving 6 pts. That is 18 pts in total from Challenges. Previously, it would show that I have earned 12 Talent Points (3x6 does not equal 12, so it must be a Bonus, right?), whereas now it shows 18 (3x6 does equal 18, so it must be just the Total).

So you also receive the Ingredients and Talent Points straight away? Now I'm even more confused by their reply, why would they write it like that? Lol, curiouser and curiouser.

I'm sure that in the past, we received our ingredients right away because I have earned Collection Badges in the middle of a wilderness adventure, coincidentally because they were given after helping a certain animal.

As far as bonuses, there must be something having to do with your role in the challenges, because I have adventured with myself before (flying two fairies, one in Chrome one in Firefox) and they have gotten different talent points at the end. Maybe someone who flies two fairies more frequently (Indigo Twinkleheart maybe?) can help us figure out what's going on...

At any rate, if one of my non members flies into the wilderness with one of my level 28 fairies, I let the non member do as much work as possible before involving the fairy that doesn't need the talent points. Because I was under the impression that the one doing "the most" got some kind of bonus...

I've never really looked into how many Talent Points you earn when Adventuring with a group, it would be interesting to see how it all works.
The only fact that I do know is that if you miss out on participating in at least one activity, you do not earn anything for that Challenge.
I've only really looked at solo Adventures though, so the factors influencing the outcomes have all stayed the same, yet it looks like there has been a change. :/

That's all right Olivia, I'm in a similar position where my member account is already at Level 28.

Thank you for your input everyone, it really does look as though they misinformed me about the rewards in the Wilderness.
