Bonus assignment video reward

Good day
I'd like to share the feedback regarding a reward given for watched ads in bonus assignment.
I assume you turned this feature for high tier regions where an impression would give you around $0.25 for one view.
I can get 80 gold coins in in game currency for $1.39 which is roughly 5 ads viewed with a simple math.
With those 5 ads viewed I got 10 gold coins and 4 crappy resources that are easily lootable from a greenhouse or on the map.
It's your decision, but in my opinion rewards must be a lot higher if you want to continue monetizing this feature.
Thanks

I like most of the advertisement rewards that I have gotten so far. The only ones that I didn't like are ingredients for healing potion because as a magizoologist, I barely use healing potions. At that time, I wish that they would include erumpent horn and granian hair as rewards, too. Plus, the chance of getting DADA books, Restricted Section books, gold gifts, potions, etc, makes it worthwhile for me to keep watching the ads.
While I see the need for the extra/additional revenue stream (I reference this game’s P&L which i do not know but suspect is way below par), the ads fail abysmally to garner player loyalty. I’d go one step further and say it’s a source of frustration and bemusement.
Waste 30 seconds of my precious time only to get a bubotuber pus? Or a dragon liver? May as well create a fundraiser to increase their coffers. It may then actually appease some, in the community.

On the occasions that the reward is worth my while, I don't mind the videos. What I DO mind is that it takes much too much time for the video to begin once I hit the button. I can take a couple of minutes, and even then I have to go back to the map then back into the tasklist. If this is going to be offered, fix this feature.
On the whole I think I get more good gifts than not. Rest sec books, gold, erumpant horns, leaping toad stools.
Some days are useless but oh well.
I have this feature only for a few weeks; 40% ignored it, 30% it didn't start after tapping, 30% I received only some crappy ingredients.
It doesn't hurt, but to me it doesn't seem to be attractive to use; downside I feel is more on the image side, like, with it the app appears like a cheap app that has to beg it users to watch ads, pretty please.
In fairness, it is a free app and I can't think of a reason to actually buy coins in it, so ads are fair game. Still feels weird, as otherwise the game appears as if it was significantly more expensive in development than other apps that rely on ads...
