Origins Campaign Event Points (D&D Rewards) [Archive] - Wizards Community

08-01-06, 03:00 PM I noticed that my activity for Origins Xen'drik Expeditions events have been posted (Thanks much!). However, I also notice that each event is worth only 4 points of D&D rewards. From reading all the rules and guidelines, it seems that each event should be worth 8 points (As it has been in the past). Each campaign adventure is worth 4 points, and the Origins multiplier of x2 should increase this to 8. Will this be addressed by The Gathering or is this an RPGA Headquarters issue?

Thanks,

One of the main reasons to put up with potential problems of gaming at a convention is that you game x2 the Rewards you'd gain if you just ordered and played them at a game day. Reducing the rewards in this way makes it twice as hard to get the points necessary for campaign cards and is a very underhanded thing to do if it is because RPGA HQ didn't run the events. The Gathering did a great job and I see no reason why the players/DM's should be penalized for RPGA HQ's lack of involvement.
