I think those are just a kind of trophy similar to the bronze, silver, and gold medallions we already win every week. I think the perks are something entirely different which are not in live world cities yet.I already see Spire Fellowship rewards on the overview tab for our fellowship. I don't know what to do with it but it is there.

This definitely effects my FS. I frequently use alts when a member goes dark. Since the beginning of the Delta surge, I had 4 senior members go dark with no warning. I usually wait until Friday morning to bring in an alt, if needed, to get us to gold in the spire. Now I have to be more aggressive about dropping inactive members and bringing in the substitute. Similarly, when we are in recruiting mode, I leave slot 25 open and only bring in the alt if needed for the gold.
Where do you get your alts - alternate players? Friends and associates in less active FSs, I'm guessing.
May be imagining this, thought there was a lag time for players joining a FS during spire or tournaments. I can see benefit before spire, tournaments begins ...
Good for you. Creative thinking.
There is a KP feature that will likely cause another upheaval period for fellowships, which haven't really settled down in the wake of Spire performance as yet. As in each FS member will receive some KPs that can only be spent on other fellows, and they expire. I suspect the Devs think this will foster cooperation but, like all their gifts to us they come at a cost, in terms of harmony and stability.
The need for complex tracking in order to ensure an even distribution is what the Beta players are railing against.Where is the problem here?
Sorry Soggy please clarify further. I get 1-10 KP reward for logging in that I have to spend on someone else's wonder in 24 hours. Cant you just combine it with however many kp you need to fill a chest?The need to track KP and keep things fair has been basically solved with the Net0 system that some FS have adopted and this is going to be a big step backwards.
Sure, but even very active Fellowships who upgrade wonders a lot only have a few chests available each day- almost never 25 different chests, and almost certainly not when you need it to dump your expiring perk kp. Also once you get Kp perk 6+ you can't use the 5 KP chest so there's one fewer that you can use on every single wonderCant you just combine it with however many kp you need to fill a chest?
If it is free KPs which expire daily, would it not be better to use them anyway even if there are no chests available anywhere in the FS?Sure, but even very active Fellowships who upgrade wonders a lot only have a few chests available each day- almost never 25 different chests, and almost certainly not when you need it to dump your expiring perk kp.

Certainly, that's why a system for doing so fairly is needed (for fellowships that want a fair distribution)If it is free KPs which expire daily, would it not be better to use them anyway even if there are no chests available anywhere in the FS?
No set minimum per player, no tracking of who gave/got how many, Some get a profit off chests, some don't?In the round robin in my fellowship we donate to each player in turn that wants to be part of the AW crowd sourcing. We donate up to 300 points or a completed AW whichever comes first and move to the next player. We don't think in terms of chests.
ROFL...all my FS do the KP swap and you know how I am about my wonders. I have to stay off the threads so I dont feel guilty and my mates dont feel ripped off!I'd either feel guilty or ripped off all the time.
"So everybody build a Tome of Secrets. We'll fill up each one until the chests are taken. Then those people put their free KP into that same one every day. When we've filled one and the reward chests have been distributed, sell your ToS and rebuild. This way we're not upsetting Net0 in the real wonders and everybody's getting KP they can use wherever." <- How I envision this conversation eventually playing out in an FS with Net0.
You've greatly misunderstood something."So everybody build a Tome of Secrets. We'll fill up each one until the chests are taken. Then those people put their free KP into that same one every day.
