3 hour option?

[YachtaYachta]

I'm in the Naturally Amazing challenge and it is asking me to produce goods using the "3 hour option" What it this?

 

[Lelanya]

It is the same quest as "Produce Precious Rings, Marble Mosaics and / or Wooden Figurines" it's just phrased differently now.

 

[YachtaYachta]

Thanks! That one had me!

If it says "goods" and not "basic goods" doesn't that mean you can make T1, T2 or T3 in the three hour option?

I just don't remember if it specifies.

It says "basic goods", so it must be Tier 1 only, as Lelanya described.

 

[Heymrdiedier]

it can also be T4, I think. I believe thats why they changed the wording.

The on-hover tip in the browser version certainly clarifies things:

Not sure about the community at large, but I've known some people in my own fellowship who have grumbled about those quests not taking basic sentient (T4) or basic ascended (T7) goods. Especially when those goods eventually decay back into standard goods.

Hooray developers. Listening to the peoples who make the goods that snark back.

EDIT: Yes, I know the picture is of the 9 hour variant. It's what I had at the time, but the tooltip should still be there for the 3h version.

"the goods that snark back"

I remember seeing that too - I couldn't believe my eyes! That is a good improvement.

I confess I chose to ignore it, because I didn't want to delay the production times of my T4 to fit in with the quests as they came up.

The easiest way to do the "produce 3hr / 9hr goods" is to squeeze some level 1 plank and/or marble factories into your city.
Save you regular factories for the "produce xxx amount of goods"

Agreed. I have permanent Level 6 Plank manufactories in my city for that purpose, and for the FAs (same size as Level 1 but a bit more output, and they look sharp).
