Why the two week gap?

Did we ever get a good reason why Conquest is only once per month rather than back to back on-going?

    It was always supposed to run like this. They stated the back to back was for exhibition phase only and would run once a month after the exhibition

    But why? Especially when the community is clamoring for continuous content...

    If we got them back to back then CG would halve the rewards and we would be doing twice the work for the same payout.

    My hope is that they are leaving a space for another fun thing to do.

    Probably to give them time to work on updates/changes to it, same with TB, TW and GAC. I'd guess the break is to publish changes without impacting the current event

    I don't understand the problem on having a conquest active at all times

    Endgame players have nothing to do on game on days like these lol

    Enter, sim battles, auto AB/mastery ship events/heroic events, get 15 minutes on GC (at most) and get either 6° or 7° box, depends of faction involved, and that's it

    that's plenty, thanks. I def don't want twice the work (errrrr, "gaming?"), for the same (aka halfx2) rewards. If you need more to do don't sim, play gc as a sandbox, or anything other than demanding more work.

    imo
    Maybe End Game isn't for you

    You would get "twice the work" for "double the rewards" lol

    What are you saying...

    That's not really the way it works. They wont double the frequency of an event without changes to the rewards, unless that was the plan.

    Everything plays into the pace and economy of the game.

    Whaling doesnt change the frequency of the event.

    Correct, I should have said the base economy, but to be fair f2p can and do have a crystal income that they also use to speed up progress.

    A better schedule would be to run it 10 days 5 off 10 on 5 off.

    That way people get it twice a month but we a reasonable gap to prevent burnout.

    And shortening the event will make stamina and energy refreshes potentially more required which will encourage players to spend more.

    Keep rewards the same everyone wins.

    Again, if CG double the frequency they will halve the rewards. They actively manage the flow of loot into the game economy.
