    Mage tower work orders?

    How many apexis do you get per day? Cant find anything on this.

    - - - Updated - - -

    If its not at least 50 per work order, its not worth it to me.

    I get an average of 180 per work order.

    It's actually a really nice amount so they'll probably nerf it... also they can produce an item that lets you finish a garrison mission instantly.

    Except you need SO many Apexis for a single piece of gear so I doubt they'll nerf it.

    Hopefully they won't because getting coins is the main reason I was keeping my Bunker, but hearing about 180 per WO, coins won't be too bad to get via 2x Apexis and 1x Honor.
    Still wondering why I play this game.

    Honestly I don't care much about the apexis crystal yield, it's the Mission Completion Orders that are the real prize in my opinion. Seems to have a reasonable droprate too.

    Since I dont raid Heroic mode, apexis gear is BIS for me other than tier gear. Prob get 4 piece tier and the rest apexis of whatever I can get. That plus a crafted weapon, trinket, and something else I need plus some 665 drops will prob get me near 670.

    Looks like a really viable alternative to the bunker once you're done with follower stuff

    I still want more enhancements, but I feel like Salvage is more than enough. I already have my 25 followers outfitted in full 675 and they combined can 100% ANY Mission of Interest [Caches, Coins, Resources with full Scavengers, etc] (having some troubles 100%ing the 2 follower i675 missions, but I can at least 90% all of them, and even then, it's usually just Apexis or Primal Spirits).

    But yeah, just swapped to Mage Tower today to get Apexis for rolls every week and those sweet, sweet, mission rush orders.

    What's the frequency of Mission Completion Orders? [how many per day]

    Idk, but if they're any more common than 3 a day, Epic Mount will probably become a fairly useless trait to anyone with the Mage Tower.

    Id be satisfied with 1 a day. 1 a day lets you use them for those important raid missions.

    - - - Updated - - -

    Heck, evern 2 or 3 a week would be worth it.

    The real question is, how many stones per work order are needed? Hopefully no more than 5.

    Well it kinda stinks you can only save 5 but eh.

    5 per WO, and WOs are unlocked from Level 1, which is the best part. I just farmed up about 250 to open my first portal and throw in 12 WOs (only had a L1 Storehouse at the time, haha)

    - - - Updated - - -

    Just completed my first WO: 115 Crystals. Not as much as the 180, but still, even at 100 each, that's 600 (practically) free crystals a day, giving you 4200 a week, giving you essentially 2+ coins (3000 Apexis nets you 2 of your 3 coins).

    Now to hope the Rush Orders aren't that rare...

    Grimfrost Hill (very close to the FFR Waygate). Small little place, but the Ogres respawn super quick. If you need exact coords, I don't remember them, but Wowhead search for Ogre Waystones and it's one of the top comments.

    I've got 3 so far and I'm half way through a set of 21 work orders, it seems to be a fairly common drop. I think getting 5-6 per 21 work orders is a reasonable expectation.

    Dropped my barracks for it (my followers are so optimized I can do every mission of interest with like.. 5 of them, definitely don't need 25), I figure being able to use them to powerlevel new inn followers every week through 8-10hr missions outweighs getting extra patrol missions.

    2 a day would be amazing, definitely gonna pick that up soon

    3 from 10.5 work orders would be 1 every 3.5; let's say 3-4 to be fair. That's quite incredible though I haven't gotten one yet.

    However, I've gotten some extra crystal data: First one was around 105, then #2 and 3 gave me slightly over 400 (200 each!), then the 4th gave me 153, so I'm going to assume it's 100-200 a WO, meaning on average, 150, and an average day's yield will be 900, so an average week is 6300! That's ALMOST enough for all 3 coins! The remaining 700 can be gotten through missions, most notably, the i675 ones.
