Event quests have gotten better over time, but they're not quite there yet in my opinion. Scouting has been diminishing over time, and conquering provinces I don't think is even asked for anymore. These are both good things! I think the next thing to go should be upgrading buildings. To put it bluntly, it's counter-intuitive to ask players to NOT upgrade their buildings as quickly as possible when on paper there is nothing but benefits for doing so. However, this is exactly what event quests do. Sure, there's a workaround in building temporary buildings, but why is this becoming an expectation of gameplay not only from the developers, but some of the players as well? Any player who plays the game normally, with their buildings maximized and not much space to build anything new is essentially slapped across the face whenever these quests pop up. To me, it's no different than the events of old when players would routinely flock to the forums to complain whenever event quests would pop up asking them to scout or conquer provinces that were well beyond what has now been established as where they 'should' be.
Alternatively, keep the quests but add alternative methods for completion. 'Upgrade x buildings to level y or higher' OR 'Have x buildings at level y or higher', with the latter most likely having higher requirements would be a simple way to achieve this.
I actually had to scout 2 provinces just to complete the 10 encounters. Then the list goes on from there..Forcing the scouting has not sown down, and it imbalances everything just so they can force diamond usage, by forcing lengthy waits for scouting..(sorry, no diamond usage here)
