Enabling Landmarks & Unreasonable Task for New Players

Could you please re-enable Landmarks. It was understandable why the landmarks were disabled at the time, however I believe it is time for them to come back. Most of the Landmarks near me can be utilized while in a vehicle.


During the current event "Battle of the Demartment of Mysteries - Week 1" we were asked to earn 500 Mysteries Family XP. I have a friend that I got to start playing during the "Dragon Event" and he is only 249/500 after being on the page for 2 days and playing almost 6 hours a day, all the free time he has. When he placed items he only gets 15 family XP for Hagrids Umbrella and 20 family XP for Omnioculars since they are being placed on the beginning page.


There are several tasks that are asked of us that new players have a very hard time completing, if at all. This particular one could possibly be solved by re-enabling Landmarks. There are other tasks that need to be reduced or take into account the players level.

    I agree, it is hard to catch any foundable for new players with the new ranking system. The mystery family XP was hard even for me a lvl 48 player. I also have landmarks that can be done by car, it is time to turn them back on.

    re-enabling landmarks doesnt guarantee anything, when they were enabled id go by them and still i wouldnt get relevent family emblems, with them cancelled at least the areas i play in arent always comc, i get a variety.

    for fxp tasks pre-grind and have shimmering a fort foundable in gold page (in that family) then you get 1200 fxp. its what i do in every such task, i mean i have over 3000 runes might as well spend them, just do ruin rounds solo until 1 of them fills up. Usually takes me something like 30 mins grind to fill up 1 in ruins. So, see orange wizard's infographics w tasks and its easy.

    for the BE fxp in week 2 just keep unlocked and ready to open all 10 portks (brilliant ones), 1/10 or 2/10 are bound to give you 100-400 be fxp each.

    Landmarks are an absolutely horrible idea for resolving this issue... Many places are still in lockdown, almost all the landmarks in areas I'm allowed to travel are Care of Magical Creatures.


    That said, I agree that the tasks for FXP are problematic for new players because of the very low FXP they get from things... I don't have an answer for how to fix this, but landmarks are not it (unless they all shift to the type required for events.

    I have an answer how to fix this.


    1. dont have such tasks or have them at something like 20 fxp (1-2 returns)
    2. increase spawn locations a thousand fold, especially away/outside of urban centers (subs/rural)

    That sounds like a very bad idea in my opinion. It wouldn't affect me, but there are people who live in flagged areas. They might still be in lockdown. Not only would it make it hard for them to complete events, but it would make it hard for them to progress at all while in lock down. Better to give us a special Event TTD that spawns nothing but the current event spawns.
