So my accounts are old and I know I've played more than it says I apparently played... how does this get fixed?

Unfortunately, as it is now there's no other way than keeping your accounts logged in for the duration. Actual account age doesn't count.

That kinda blows. I thought it was all per account not per character?

I was all happy to see my account age to be like 911 or whatever today

It's run off of total account play time, not individual character time. And it seems to take one extra day before the conquest pops up.

So what your sayin is I gotta sit there afk day in and day out to have my rewards for being 900+ day old account? Mad and sad.

AFK rewards... yes I'm bitching.

In all honesty, it's a smart play for staff to boost client count.
I think it's kinda silly myself and would rather they be based on days and not hours, but whaddya do.

Sure, it boosts client count, but if the clients are afk, it's pretty meaningless.
lollo
Grandmaster
Does it at least sum character play time per account? Like if i have 250 Hours on one char and 250 on another on same account will they add up For the account age and rewards?

Only total account play time matters. So all your activity between characters adds up, but if you're going to just count on actual play time, it's going to be a long time before you see a vet reward.
Blaine the Gypsy
Grandmaster
Well if you add up all my play times I'm way up there per account.
Bromista
Grandmaster
I agree. But tell that to the charts!
Speaking of which, I can't find them for some reason...are they down?

The choice was to either have these conquests go by account age, in which everyone would mass create accounts, never log into them and then later down the road farm the rewards (not to mention, reward those that have alreayd done so) OR do it by play time and reward those that play the most. A side effect is afk shard sitters, but in light of the side affect of the first option, it is pretty good.
Btw, it is total play time for all characters on your account. You can check the in-game options gump to see the statistics of where your account is at (and also that specific character).

Well if that's the case I should have all the rewards yet I have none... wait I have 1 broken veteran title scroll.

Double click the pentagram looking thing above your paperdoll and tell me what the total days are that is listed there.
Blaine the Gypsy
Grandmaster
This can't be accurate. I'm an old fart that's on all the time.
913 Days Account (main)
72 Days played?!
50,12,7,4 (deleted character dunno)
913 Days
95 Days Played?!
6,36,43,9,3
833 Days
91 played
48,9, 24, 3, 2
Makes me confused since I know where I've been playing this whole time X_x

See above comments.
So looking above, I would guess that you have only received the vet title reward on two accounts and about to get it on your main.
